Best Vegan Restaurants in Dana Point / Monarch Beach

This is our go-to for a quiet dinner where we can spend quality time with our friends and family. The food is excellent and the service exceptional. Jack is always there to greet you. I cannot say enough good things about this place.

A true gem, this tea house is a treasure beyond words. The staff are cheerfully present and accommodating, serving with utmost care while crafting the ultimate tea experience. The ambiance is festive and warm, with friends old and new meeting to share in a prized selection of teas. A timelessly classic experience whether celebrating the joy of a lazy afternoon or a once in a lifetime occasion.

Mikey our server for lunch was really wonderful. Very helpful in the ordering for both wine and entrees. Lovely personality! The food was well prepared, a little pricey, but as expected :) View was terrific, we had a central table right at the window and Mikey opened the windows for us upon request so that we could have a simultaneous view and fresh air on this gorgeous day. Lovely lunch!! (Branzino, lobster salad and Cobb shrimp salad all delicious) (Also liked that the valet was free and that I was able to charge my car while dining!) Will definitely be back when next in Laguna (from LA)

We made reservations for our anniversary. We were seated at our table and proceeded to the bar to order some happy hour cocktails. They were strong and delicious. Our server was very kind, funny, and helpful with us making our menu decisions. I had the prime rib and my husband had the prosciutto wrapped salmon. Both were amazing. My husband had the fixed price meal with soup, the salmon, and lava cake for dessert. We were comped a delicious slice of mud pie for our anniversary dessert. The food and service were overall excellent, and the views are unmatched! We will be back for happy hour in the bar!

Really great restaurant, we now have so many favorite dishes here! If you think you don't like vegetables, you have to come try Mayfield - it is amazing what they can do with carrots or cabbage or sweet potatoes! And their fried chicken is the best!
