Patio dining is available, and reservations are accepted. Wilma's Patio (Restaurants - Breakfast) 203 Marine Ave, Balboa Island  CA  92662 • 949-675-5542 Distance: ~4.47 mi         Description: BALBOA ISLAND. Casual Wilma's has long been a favorite of folks who inhabit tiny Balboa, a teardrop of an island in Newport Bay. The community's charm and attitude are seemingly worlds away from day-to-day mainland travails. What makes this family-owned restaurant so special? Well, although it's a neighborly place where the word "stranger" has no meaning, in truth, it all comes down to the food. Wilma's serves outstanding home-cooked fare all day long, from hearty Mexican scrambles and seafood omelets to dinner specialties like meat loaf, pot roast, and charbroiled flat-iron steak. Patio seating is available year-round. Copyright ©2001 10Best Inc. All rights reserved.
