Beyond their size, small businesses are defined by their spirit. And at the helm are their intrepid founders—scrappy, ambitious, and resilient. They invent and build things despite uncertainty, because it’s what drives them. Their risks lead to innovation that moves the world forward. And we need them.
03.22.25 My fourth time here, primarily dinner except today where we had 'brunch' Pretty good on service overall, from reception to sit down and service. Food presentation has been top notch. Food is good to great except that it's a little bit on the salty side. The waiter was very nice to offer a replacement but I didn't take the offer. If it was too salty, I'd probably take the offer or get something else. I don't know if others have felt the same. It could just be me although I have to mention that the food runs a tad bit salty. I appreciate the regular check in by wait staff, especially filing water drinks. It's a relaxing place to go and sit down for lunch or dinner. Plenty of parking although the parking lots can be very busy on weekends.
Had a wonderful evening at Rancho Capistrano Winery in Ladera Ranch. We had reservations and were seated at a lovely booth. Brynn was our server and was fantastic. She was kind, knowledgeable, and very professional. We started with the spinach artichoke dip with chips, which was quite good. My wife had a glass of Bella Chardonnay, and I had a glass of the Capo Grand Blend. Both wines were very good. Brynn took our entree orders, and my wife had the grilled salmon, and I had the scallops. Both dishes were presented well and served at the perfect temperature. The meals were tasty and plentiful. We finished the evening with a cappuccino. Also, the young woman on the keyboard had a fantastic voice, and her music was soothing and lovely. This was our first time here, and overall, it was very good. Highly recommended
Had a surprise birthday party here for my wife. The winery was very accommodating allowing us to come in before our reservation and decorate the table. The service was impeccable. The dishes we ordered were good.
The food was delicious. The location has a wrap around porch which is lovely space to have outdoor lunch since it's right across from the park. The whiskey bundt cake is a must for dessert. Service was fantastic. Everyone in a good mood and very helpful. Squash blossoms are a great appetizer.
Good ambience. Big place and dog-friendly. They have wine tasting by the bar. We ordered Steak Frites, Salmon, Sprouts Brussels, Chopped Salad and Merlot for wine. We definitely enjoyed everything, portions are quite large. Salad can be good for two. Brussels was so good. We love the steak and salmon too! Will definitely come back here.
