Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Highland

I was celebrating my girlfriend‘s 40th birthday, the waiter was excellent highly recommend Tony V., he was so funny and entertaining.

We booked this on the night of the Mission Inn Christmas lights festival kickoff. We were not disappointed. First of all, you get special access to the hotel, lobby and light show with a reservation. That alone saves tons of time and the burden of standing in long lines in the cold. Then there's the restaurant... What a beautiful example of early 19th Century California architecture and craftsmanship. All of the finishes from the molding and tile to the details in the Christmas decorations are beautiful. I felt like I was in a Bing Crosby movie - in Technicolor. Finally, the food and service are both 5 star! The buffet we enjoyed was curated with high quality, well made classics like shrimp cocktail, prime rib, salad bar and all the fixings. Beverages like lemonade and coffee were included. The service was friendly and very attentive. Just get here early for this festival. It took us almost an hour to get in and find parking, and the negotiate the crowds to get here from the lot. Crazy busy, but so, so worth it.

Everything was smooth from the moment we arrived . The host was kind enough to accommodate our request of sitting outside . I will say our server maya was amazing she made the experience even better. She was very attentive and with an amazing vibe. She helped answered all our questions. Shout out to maya thanks for everything .

Each time my Canadian friend visits me she makes sure we go to Caprice for the amazingly delicious lamb chops. We started with the handcrafted lemon drops, Greek salad and a fine Bordeaux wine with the recommendation of the staff to go with our main course! Then, the dessert, a decadent masterpiece apple pie with vanilla bean ice cream. The staff is always so welcoming and wonderful!

Surprised with how good the pork chop was and the service was great.
