My family and I have been coming to this restaurant for years. The family who owns it, is super super nice and run a fantastic place. The prices are very reasonable, the portions are large, the meals are very very tasty. They have a great drink options, including some amazing smoothies. Highly recommend this place whether on a date, or a family get together. Fun environment and great food plus excellent customer service what more could you ask for!!

Had breakfast here. Food as delicious and our waitress was really sweet and did a wonderful job. Wish I could remember her name to give her credit. They had a separate little store to order out which also had baked goods Smart set up

Me & my daughter we’re visiting San Juan with my best friend from Laguna. I love San Juan Capistrano. We live in Las Vegas and needed to get away for a few days. We stopped in this restaurant and once I seen the older gentleman and the adorable young server, I knew this was a family owned business. The sangria drink was AMAZING. My ceviche was over the top QUALITY as I’m a ceviche expert. 😜😜 Service was excellent Need one of these in Vegas. Support family owned businesses
