Gorgeous spot with an amazing ocean view and neat shops in the area. The food and the presentation of dishes were not too memorable. The service was just average. I would come back for just the view or maybe a drink while I soak up the ambiance. One unique part is that this place is not only dog friendly, but it also has a decent dog menu!

My second time to have the pleasure to enjoy this wonderful beach front restaurant and attraction. There is no better view. We had extraordinary service from Ricky, and while some of the food items were not the top example of the item they were all tasty and well prepared. The price was very reasonable based on the local and the venue. Great way to get the beach experience whether you have an afternoon or a month.

Came in on Saturday evening for our wedding anniversary. It was our first time there. Called ahead to get on waitlist since the Yelp online waitlist was closed for some reason. They originally told us 2-3 hour wait so we left to explore the town but ended up getting a table in an hour and hurried back. Why not just do reservations? The system was confusing. The ocean view and sunset hour is great. Food was fine but was not impressive. We ordered the Ahi tuna and Salmon entree with mashed and baked potatoes, the Ahi tuna was good but on the saltier side, the salmon was just ok, the potatoes were hard, and the string beans were half cooked. Had a good time anyway with the view!

A great choice for a sunny day to have food and enjoy the beautiful views of the Pacific Ocean over the Laguna Beach coasts. Location is great right by the walk way and the food menu has good variety of choices. we ordered a whole red snapper which was a great choice and our server was very knowledgable and professional. interior has a very relaxing vibe and their outdoor patio area also has beautiful ocean view. over all recommend it.

This place is definitely a place to check out in Laguna Beach. We had the best view of the beach from our table. Food is American favorites but very delicious. The staff was friendly and there is so much to do. Theu have so many little shops to check out and in the center of it all some live music. Parking is a little hectic but they offer valet. Perfect place for a date or for girls outing!

Take in a great view of the ocean and the smell of fresh sea air while you dine. Ordered the Garden Benedict and Açai bowl. I appreciated that the Garden Benedict was not smothered in hollandaise sauce. Great place for breakfast. We arrived early so there wasn’t a wait. As it gets closer to lunch time, the wait does go up pretty quickly.
