Orange County's newest upscale dining experience is now open on Lake Mission Viejo! Well known for our iconic location in Long Beach, Domenico’s was one of the first restaurants to serve pizza in California and is famous for our legendary pizzas and amazing Italian and American inspired dishes. Domenico's on the Lake is an upscale take on our original location featuring new steak and seafood entrees, while still featuring the original recipes that have made us an institution in Southern California.

NOTE: OUR LAKESIDE PATIO HAS LIMITED SEATING AND CANNOT BE GUARANTEED BECAUSE THE DEMAND OFTEN EXCEEDS AVAILABILITY. PATIO SEATING REQUESTS ARE SUBJECT TO A WAIT.

We visited for Thanksgiving the turkey was outstanding. However, the prime beef was horrible. My mother was unable to eat it and the waitress saw that and didn’t offer to bring her something else.

Food and service was outstanding. This is an old school restaurant that takes pride in its quality of food and the attention to the customer. This is one of our favorite restaurants and we try to visit them 4 to 6 times a month. This restaurant is a gem in Mission Viejo.
