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.

Excellent food and perfect portions size. We enjoyed the lamb shank and filet mignon. Not overly stuffed so we shared the mini Bundt whiskey cake. All so good!

We were impressed the moment we were seated at our table which was elegantly set with white tablecloth and sparkling glassware . White jacketed waiters were a testament to the lost art of professional service that seems to exist only in fond memories. The assortment and display of epicurean seafood was the crown jewel of this expansive delicious brunch.
