  • Great for scenic views

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.

    Our waiter Frank was exceptional, really nice. The cocktails were good, agnolotti appetizer delicious. Caesar salad wasn’t very impressive but addition of pepitas was nice. Black cod was good. Very nice atmosphere- spacious, comfortable. We will return.

    It was just ok. It was t bad, but for all the hype it fell really short. We are locals and haven’t been, and had some expectations. They were all pretty unmet. The staff was friendly. The food was mediocre. I suppose if I was a hungry golfer in between rounds it would fit the bill. For a spot that was supposed to be on point it was really on par with clubhouse food.

    Great menu and ambiance. What truly stood out for us was the hospitality of our server! I can’t remember his name although he told us a couple of times. He was friendly, professional, funny and genuine…great job!

    We dined here three years ago and it was amazing. They were super accommodating for a handicapped family member. This time the menu seemed very small. When I was surprised by the sea scallops price tag of $57, I was expecting more than 3. The dish was overwhelmed with too many mushrooms and weird potatoes. Too much starch with the butternut squash risotto. It also took and hour to get our two dishes. Not worth the price tag.

    Where do I start , the young hostess (long dark hair Hispanic girl) was awful- as the face of your business and the start of our morning…..it couldn’t have been a more awkward and frustrating experience. It was empty except for two other tables sat…. And we waited 10 min while she fumbled through her morning routine…. It looked like she was organizing her morning, at our expense. Once she did decide to seat us, her personality was forced and she seemed bothered to be there. Food was ok- server ( Luis) was great and attentive. This place has such great potential if they just paid attention to the details. Cleanliness being the most important - it’s 8:30 am and the restaurant feels and looks dirty. Could be so much better.

    Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We appreciate your feedback and are sorry to hear that your visit didn’t start off on the right foot. We understand how frustrating it must have been to wait, and we’ll definitely address the situation with our hostess to ensure she is more attentive and welcoming in the future. We're glad to hear that Luis provided excellent service, however, we take cleanliness very seriously, and we apologize that it didn't meet your expectations during your visit. We’ll make sure to pay closer attention to ensure that every guest feels comfortable and well-cared for. We hope you’ll consider giving us another chance to provide a better experience next time. Thank you again for your valuable feedback!-AD General Manager

    Our server was excellent and the food delicious. We had the onion soup, gem salad, short ribs and burger. For a restaurant with these prices, the tables should be bussed more efficiently. We sat with our finished plates in front of us and finally had to call someone over to remove the dishes.

    Thank you for your thoughtful review! We’re so glad to hear that you enjoyed your meal and that your server provided excellent service. We apologize for the delay in clearing your plates.

We truly value your input and hope to welcome you back soon!-AD, General Manager

    ✨Chefs Kiss!!💋 This place has such a beautiful view and atmosphere but more importantly I loved the variety of the menu and everything we ordered was amazing. We had brunch, the huevos rancheros and avocado toast were so good but the absolute best was the cinnamon roll with bacon! Yummy
