About this restaurant

  • Great for scenic views
  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
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.

    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.

    Excellent menu. Great service. Unbelievable location in Laguna Beach. Harvest restaurant at the ranch is elegant, exquisite, and one of the best restaurants within a 10 mile radius.

    The Harvest Restaurant in Laguna Beach was excellent! The waitstaff were terrific—very attentive and friendly. The appetizers were delicious, and the food arrived at a reasonable pace, even though they were busy. The entrées were terrific—my son had the steak, another had a hamburger, my daughter enjoyed a salad, and my wife and I had the gnudi pasta, which was absolutely outstanding. Overall, I highly recommend it if you’re dining in the area! Oh and most of it is farm to table with the farm in site at the Ranch.
