Our restaurant, bar and private dining room celebrate the storied history of California's organic farming, brewing, and oenology. Outdoor patio seating unveils stunning Aliso Canyon and golf course views. As an homage to the original homesteaders, fresh-made food and drink are a focus throughout your dining experience, with many ingredients harvested on property. What we don't grow here is thoughtfully sourced.
Kyle St. John is the Executive Chef bringing his passion of farm-to-table cooking and fresh, locally-sourced cuisine.

The menu changes with each season, integrating fresh herbs, fruits and vegetables grown and gathered from our own half-acre Harvest Farm. The new bar is a haven of sociability, featuring an innovative handcrafted cocktail menu, enticing wine list and 18 craft beers on tap—all for sipping along with earnest conversation.

The Harvest team shares their masterfully creative and intensely local take on California coastal cuisine designed with food-lovers in mind.

This is my favorite OC restaurant. The ambience is casual and welcoming. The staff from reception and valet to wait staff is exemplary. Their communication between each party is world class. They get you by name, each party congratulates you on a special occasion. But the piece de resistance is the exquisite food. The dishes are so creatively conceived and beautifully presented, each seems like a gift. Tonight my husband ordered the refreshing beet salad, coq au vin, and I had a burger, possibly the most sophisticated and delicious burger ever and dine to perfection (medium rare). We shared the fried brussel sprouts and were too full to order dessert. Cannot recommend Harvest highly enough. What s special evening!!

This is the third time we’ve been back to harvest in the last six weeks. Each time we order different things and each time we’ve been back we’ve noticed that the food has changed. The short ribs are very good but mashed potatoes are very salty. The muscles were just OK. The Caesar salad was very bland. The charcuterie board was a disgrace. We asked what cheese came on the cheeseboard. What we got was not what we were told .The two of the cheeses were so hard you couldn’t eat them because they cut it so close to the rind . Shrimp cocktail was bland and shrimp were small. This used to be a destination restaurant. Sad the kitchen has changed. Spent a lot of money on so so meal.
