Best Restaurants with a Fireplace in San Juan Capistrano

I met a friend for happy hour. 3 pm but we were given a brunch menu? Not really what we had in mind but we both picked the steak salad. It was really tasty and well done steak. The waitress must have been busy because we didn’t see her at all until we finished. No refills of water. It was a bit pricey for 2 salads and a three glass wine tasting for one and an ice tea for the other. $90

6 oh my girlfriend‘s and had lunch at Ciao Pasta yesterday before going to the Capistrano Nights at the Mission. We selected this restaurant because we had gone last year and everything about it was outstanding. They seated on the patio immediately although we were early for our reservation. Every member of the weight staff greeted us provided a friendly atmosphere made sure we were all comfortable and felt welcomed. We had a lasagna, spaghetti and a salmon salad. The bread is amazing melts in your mouth and truly delicious. I was in Italy recently and I can tell you this experience at Ciao Pasta was as authentic, delicious and truly satisfying as if we were dining on a Piazza anywhere in Italy. Bravo, Ciao Pasta, we will return soon.

Always great service! Food is excellent as well. Servers Stella, John and Natalie and others are always on top of it! 0h and David too! If I had one complaint it would be that it gets very loud inside the restaurant, can’t talk to people at your table very easily. I give the restaurant 5 stars!

Vegetarian food was great. If more choice it would have been better. Loved the service and presentation of food.

Great choices for starters! Could easily share all for main course😁… excellent service and choice of inside or outside! Very fair prices doe both food and drinks👍….hardest part is parking😂… We will be back for sure🇺🇸
