About this restaurant

  • Great for scenic views
  • Charming
  • Good for special occasions
Our restaurant, bar and private dining room celebrate the storied history of California's organic farming, brewing, and oenology. Outdoor patio seating unveils stunning Aliso Canyon and golf course views. As an homage to the original homesteaders, fresh-made food and drink are a focus throughout your dining experience, with many ingredients harvested on property. What we don't grow here is thoughtfully sourced.
Kyle St. John is the Executive Chef bringing his passion of farm-to-table cooking and fresh, locally-sourced cuisine.

The menu changes with each season, integrating fresh herbs, fruits and vegetables grown and gathered from our own half-acre Harvest Farm. The new bar is a haven of sociability, featuring an innovative handcrafted cocktail menu, enticing wine list and 18 craft beers on tap—all for sipping along with earnest conversation.

The Harvest team shares their masterfully creative and intensely local take on California coastal cuisine designed with food-lovers in mind.

    Food was cooked perfectly. We had the Uni oysters special and a New York strip steak. The steak was cooked perfectly @ medium rare. Unfortunately it was lukewarm and not hot. I would go back and try it again.

    when we asked for a table in a almost completely empty restaurant she said we could not have. i asked what i need to do in the future to not have to sit in the sun or outside and she said for me to specify on booking. This really made us feel like we weren't important especially as there was no reserved sign on the table and it was not a view table. disappointing.

    Beautiful facility with great views of the golf course and canyon. Crews was our waiter and we enjoyed his knowledge of the restaurant a food. Nice wine selections by the glass. My wife complained that the hamburger was over cooked and they comped it! Looking forward to returning.

    Our first visit here was fantastic. Our second, not so much. First, we were shoved in a corner at a very loud table next to a big party even though I had made my rsvp weeks ago. The food took forever to come out and the restaurant wasn't full so I'm not sure why. The taste was not good for any of our meals. Maybe it was just an off night? Service was very good...Our busser was fantastic. The ambiance is nice usually... just not this time. Our table was so small is barely fit the 4 of us. Sadly I will not be returning any time soon.

    Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re truly sorry to hear that your second visit didn’t meet the high standards we strive for. We understand how frustrating it must have been to be seated near a loud party, especially with a reservation in place. The day before Mother’s Day was incredibly busy for us, which may have affected both the timing of your meal and the overall experience, but that’s no excuse for the issues you faced. We’re glad to hear that our service, especially from the busser, was still up to par. We will make sure to pass along your kind words to them. We truly appreciate your feedback and hope you might consider giving us another chance in the future to provide a better experience.-AD, General Manager

    Very friendly and attentive staff. The food was delicious and the outdoor seating was very comfortable. It was a little cool so they had the heat lamps on and offered blankets as well. Wonderful time celebrating my birthday there.

    The experience my family and I had yesterday was completely unacceptable. We will never return, and I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone. We arrived and waited about five minutes before anyone came to valet our car. When we entered, the hostess didn’t greet us with a hello or any warmth. We made this reservation for my mother’s birthday, and when we mentioned that, she barely murmured a “happy birthday.” The service we received from our server was especially disappointing. He was rude and clearly rushing us, even though we had a full hour before the kitchen closed. He repeatedly reminded us about the time, which made us feel pressured. He noticed the birthday card and gift on the table but said nothing. He also forgot to place our drink order, so the drinks arrived after our appetizers. When my sister sent her sandwich back because it was cold and soggy, he didn’t apologize or offer an alternative—just walked away. We had to flag him down again just to get a new menu. At that point, we still had around 20 minutes to place another order, yet he stood by the table impatiently. When my sister asked for another minute, he rudely responded that he couldn’t wait. Then he threw a napkin on the table and walked off. Throughout the meal, he never once checked in—not even after my sister received her new dish. When he eventually brought a small birthday ice cream with a candle for my mom, he said, “I don’t know whose birthday it is, but here you go,” before setting it down. It was not only disgustingly dismissive but insulting. At no point did he attempt to interact with us or show any sense of hospitality. For a place that prides itself on service and hospitality, this experience was far from it. We were treated with disrespect on a day that was supposed to be special, and we left feeling disappointed and offended.

    Hello Catherine, I’m truly sorry to hear about your recent experience with us, especially on such an important occasion. What you described falls far short of the service and hospitality we strive to provide, and I sincerely apologize for the lack of warmth, professionalism, and care shown throughout your visit. Your feedback is being taken seriously, and I will be addressing this with our team to ensure it’s not repeated. While I understand your frustration and decision not to return, I’d still appreciate the opportunity to speak with you directly, should you be open to it. Thank you again for bringing this to my attention.- Aaron Dennis, General Manager
