Dana Point / Monarch Beach​の人間観察にぴったりなお店

I met a friend for happy hour. 3 pm but we were given a brunch menu? Not really what we had in mind but we both picked the steak salad. It was really tasty and well done steak. The waitress must have been busy because we didn’t see her at all until we finished. No refills of water. It was a bit pricey for 2 salads and a three glass wine tasting for one and an ice tea for the other. $90

Our server Jorge was so amazing and very attentive. He also gave us recommendations of local places in the area to also check after our dinner.

Eveything about this establishment is on-point. Be it the outstanding service, the food (presentation and flavor), the ambient lighting or the beautiful decor. They truly are firing on all cylinders here, and will make for a top-night for any occasion whatsoever. I cannot speak highly enough about this place in all honesty, making it a local favorite for several years now.

Tango is a cozy, European style gem I’ve visited twice. Niko was friendly and spot-on with wine and food recommendations. The Angus beef brisket was melt in your mouth perfection, definitely recommend! Everything was amazing, though the lobster Caesar salad could use less dressing to avoid soaking the lettuce, especially for the price. One note: they leave the door open, and it gets quite chilly. Otherwise, a fantastic experience!

If you're looking for the perfect venue for food, scenery, ambiance, and excellent service, go to Harpoon Henry's in the Dana Point Harbor. The menu covers a range of choices for everyone's taste needs, with affordable prices. Right now the area is completely decorated in Christmas lights, which adds to the beautiful scenery.
