Quiet Woman

Since 1965 The Quiet Woman Restaurant & Bar has been a favorite spot for generations of locals. Tucked away behind bougainvillea and brick, the warm, cozy atmosphere makes you feel at home whether you are a weekly regular or a first time guest.

The inviting ambiance is the perfect setting for The Quiet Woman's culinary quest. Contrary to trendy and far from fussy, The Quiet Woman focuses on serving sophisticated comfort food. We start with incredible ingredients, add a contemporary twist and finish with a picture perfect presentation that delivers a bit of delicious satisfaction in every single bite.

Colorado grass fed lamb, center loin thick cut swordfish and baseball steaks from the mesquite grill, sinfully rich roasted all day short ribs and caramelized Maine diver scallops are but a few of our incredible evening treats. Lunch features lighter fare with fresh fish, salads and sandwiches taking center stage. Our busy bar is open all day through closing and offers an extensive menu of small and large plates to satisfy everything from a little craving to a three course meal.

Fabulous food, worldly wine, inviting ambiance and seamless service combine to create an exceptional dining experience. We invite you to be a guest in our house.

The logo

Stories abound the concerning the origin of our name and logo. The earliest story we have been able to document is found in a fifteenth century manuscript called The Sherbourne Missal. The headless woman on our sign is Judith, a seventh century saint who helped pilgrims on their way to a shrine in her village. Her family, constantly at odds with her religious persuasions, took her life by sword. According to the legend she picked up her head and carried it to the altar before she expired.

In an age of illiteracy, the story was graphically represented by the politically incorrect logo you still see today. There are many “Quiet Woman” and “Silent Woman” pubs scattered throughout England and Eldridge French spent many hours in one such pub as a GI in World War II. In 1965 he recreated that favorite pub here in Corona del Mar when he built
The Quiet Woman.
