Best Restaurants with a Tasting Menu in Dana Point / Monarch Beach

Took a day trip down to Laguna and decided on Splashes for lunch. We were not disappointed. The restaurant has a stunning beachfront view and service was exceptional (thank you Kim). The lobster bisque soup was also an unexpected star on the menu. Highly recommend!

Great view in a very nice dining room and excellent food and service.

Every course was amazing. The Michelin star is definitely well deserved!

The view is amazing and so is the staff. They even made sure we were warm as we were sitting outside near the ocean. Food was good. We had Ribeye steak which was tasty and ordered sides of brussel sprouts and potatoes au gratin. large order for sides enough for two or more people. Drinks were good but on the pricey side. Expected as this is the beach and hotel is going through a reno. Beautiful spot! The people that work here are great and music was perfect! Definitely a place we will be visiting again and again.

The food is sophisticated and delicious with flavours blending Mediterranean influences with fresh local ingredients. Our group loved every dish from dips to crispy chicken to roasted carrots and cauliflower. Each dish was unique and dense with flavour. The only downside to Mayfield is the noise level. Too much
