    Love giving a well deserved positive review! Everything we had was perfectly cooked and delicious. The sushi was fresh, shrimp cocktail was perfectly cooked and crunched with each bite and the crab cakes were crunchy and filled with crab. The main course did not disappoint the ahi salad had a nice portion of ahi and a well blended salad mix, the fried shrimp was perfectly cooked, crispy with no oily residue and the lobster roll had mounds of lobster in a warm bun with ample butter, it was delicious. The crème brûlée was the best crème brûlée I’ve had in years. Thank you for a perfect meal! Well done!

    The patio was perfect, comfortable, with views out to the sunset, and in to the classic main room and the jazz musicians playing inside. The service was impeccable, friendly, skilled and accommodating. The food was delicious, beautifully presented, and ample. This place is a gem to be enjoyed many many times.

    An adorable setting tucked away in San Juan Capistrano. Perfect for a relaxing and delicious lunch with some girlfriends. I'm not usually a lady who lunches, so this is the best treat. The Triple Crown Salad is out of this world. The scones are delightful. If you go in cooler weather, bring another layer if you're going to sit outside since the veranda is shaded.
