Used to be 5 star but new owners made quality go down and more over priced for smaller portions, not a fan of this

Well, I turned 62 today so my 91 year old dad wanted to take me to dinner for my birthday. Since Quincy's closure, we thought we would check out the Strand to see how the food, service & ambience is now. This place is definitely still a locals hideout! The table order was: BBQ chicken plate, Salmon plate & peppered ahi plate. My dad raved about his salmon; the evidence is in his plate being near empty. My pan seared ahi plate was really great too. My sister said her BBQ chicken was good too. All in all, it was a great birthday dinner. The service was slow although not by the waitstaff, seemingly the kitchen. Waitstaff all very friendly, attentive & kind.

Under new management within the last year so, this quaint little local gem is now called " The Strand Bar & Grill". It's a tiny little spot next to Kidde Beach, off the channel by Port Hueneme. I had a great experience with the host, Raegan. She was polite and helpful and took my phone in order quickly with an upbeat attitude (thank you). We ordered a Philly cheesesteak and a Tri-tip sandwich. The menus on Yelp were over 6 years old so we were really just hoping they had these sandwiches! But they did and we got the order in. The parking lot is barely more than an apron of pavement next to the building. Just enough for a few cars to park at steep angles. But there is a ton of street parking nearby. Besides, this is a walk in kind of joint for the neighborhood. Love the vibe inside. Small town, comfort and kindness. Wood floors. Folks hold the door for you. Ahhhh, just right. I saw a bunch of fresh menus on the counter at the host stand and thought I'd take the opportunity to get familiar with it. Along the way someone else would probably want to see the latest offerings so here they are attached. I wish I had taken photos of the food! It was dynomite!! But alas, we was hungry haha. It didn't last long enough for the camera. Take my word for it; it was money! We are coming back again very soon

This little local restaurant was formerly known as Quincy Street. We had a fabulous meal. Started with baby back ribs with two sides. Since they also have potato skins I ask if they could add stuff for the baked potato as a side. They went all the way, with butter sour cream bacon bits chives and cheese. No extra charge for all of that. Then we had the Jack Daniel bread pudding which is the best one we've had since New Orleans.

We visited the Strand Bar & Grill last Sunday evening for dinner. It may not look like much from the outside. But when we walked in, the restaurant is open, spacious and inviting. The server was very kind and responsive. For an appetizer, we had the rib tips. It was a very large portion of absolutely delicious, tender rib meat. I will definitely get this again. It is a meal in itself. I ordered the spaghetti and meatballs for the main course. I am picky when it comes to meatballs. It seems many places put too much of something in the meatballs. Not here! The meatballs were probably the best meatballs I have ever had. Finally, if you really want an amazing experience, leave room for the bread pudding. There is plenty to share and it truly is a delight. It is something you have to try. The Strand Bar & Grill is a fantastic place to go and relax and enjoy an amazing dinner.

Love this place! Everything is delicious. I believe they switched owners and names within the last years

We went here twice on our little vacation and it was great! We loved the food and our bartender (Clark? Sorry we can’t remember if that’s his name) was really awesome! Keep it up !
we had dinner there right after they changed ownership from Quincy Street to the Strand Bar and Grill. We've been going there for years and were disappointed with the new establishment. There seemed to be a huge disconnect between the wait staff and the kitchen and the drinks were not to the standard we were used to. We tried it again tonight and I have to say that the wait and server staff was right on mark. The food was the same we were used to (they have retained the same cook) and overall the service, food and atmosphere was excellent. They have changed the menu slightly but all in all it was very close to what I had hoped for.

Love the goat cheese pasta at this place! Portions are a good size and good; always tastes fresh! I have only ordered to go but the order is ready when I show up and the staff is always so nice.

Best vibe around! A must try is Nancy's Spicy Margarita and the Lasagna AL Forno! Delightful ?

The food was good, I ordered the tri tip sandwich but the meat was tough to bite into, maybe it wasn't sliced against the grain or the pieces were too big and thick. This meant that the whole sandwich had to be taken apart and the meat cut up. Way too much bbq sauce, and I wasn't told it would be spicy. Didn't say it anywhere and I have stomach issues that makes it very unpleasant to eat spicy food. I would have gotten something else or sauce on the side if I knew. Maybe it was the grilled onions that were spicy? Didn't get a chance to tell the server about it because she didn't come around. The drinks were kinda pricey but good. I did have a good time but I think they can do a bit better for the prices.
Wonderful spot with easy listening live music. Highly recommend!
