Best Historic Restaurants in San Juan Capistrano

Had an awesome meal at Rosewood Social in San Juan Capistrano with my wife and daughter. We ordered the Chilean Bass, Coconut Curry with Tofu, and Braised Short Rib, and went family style. Every dish was spot-on—perfectly cooked and full of flavor. Wrapped it up with their waffle croissant dessert, which was next-level good. Great food, solid service, and a cool vibe. Highly recommend.

Waitress was a little confused and initially brought the wrong tea. She was apologetic and may have been new. My only complaint is there was a small dog at the table near us that was barking off and on. Felt they should have been asked to take the dog out of it couldn’t behave or stop barking. Luckily it was towards the end of our time there but feel bad for others who just got there. Other than that had a great time and enjoyed the food.

One of the best restaurants we’ve dined at in 49 ststes. Everything was prepared to perfection.

We found our new "home table" a high top in the small bar area. It was perfect, the greeting, the service and the two specials. We had a wonderful evening and the bar was quiet so we could talk and enjoy ourselves.

We love the vibe at San Juan Capistrano Winery. The wine is always delicious and the servers are quite knowledgeable on the wine. The food is outstanding! The soup was homemade and fabulous. We’ve never been disappointed. Ben the bartender is spectacular! We also recommend Rochelle, who presented our wine and cheese tasting. She was well versed in the wine.
