(1/5) The view is beautiful, but unfortunately that's about the only positive thing I can say about our experience. Our food took much longer than tables that were seated after us. Even our appetizers hadn't arrived while other tables that came later were already being served. We had to wait an unreasonable amount of time. Our server was also difficult to find throughout the meal. I asked for a straw, but it never came, so I eventually had to ask a different server, who wasn't even assigned to our table, to bring me one. When our food still hadn't arrived, I again had to ask another server for help because we couldn't find ours. When our server finally came over, he insisted that the other table had been seated before us. After checking, he admitted that they had actually been seated after us--but never apologized. What disappointed me the most wasn't even the wait, but the complete lack of accountability after realizing the mistake. To make matters worse, an 18% gratuity was automatically added to our bill. This charge was not disclosed on the menu, and no one informed us about it beforehand. Being required to pay an 18% gratuity after receiving service like this felt completely unjustified. I'm considering filing a complaint with the Better Business Bureau because customers deserve transparency and shouldn't be surprised by mandatory charges. The food itself was also disappointing. The BBQ back ribs were noticeably overcooked and had a strong burnt, bitter flavor that overwhelmed the meat. Overall, the food was very average and did not come close to justifying the price. The scenery is the only reason this place gets any stars from me. Everything else--from the service to the food--was disappointing. I won't be returning, and I can't recommend it.

I can't believe I never knew about the restaurant. It is right across from Aliso Creek beach up in an area called The Ranch. There's a beautiful golf course situated in the basin of a hilly area -- the views are gorgeous. Across from the pro shop, you'll find Harvest, a beautiful restaurant with indoor, outdoor and bar seating. First, you MUST try their giant cinnamon roll. We got ours with the candied bacon on the side and I'm craving it just thinking about it! Everything we ate was delicious. They even have fantastic coffee drinks too! Shout out to Frank for the fabulous service! I can't wait to come back soon.

Swordfish
Baran K.

The location of the establishment is beautiful and our server last night was absolutely lovely. However, I do not believe I would recommend the food to anyone. We started with the duck drumettes, which were definitely the best dish but nothing special. I chose mussels as my main, but the white sauce was way too thick and creamy and wayyy too salty (this is coming from someone who sprinkles and licks plain salt for fun). I did like the bacon as an additional touch, but again I feel like a sauce for this kind of dish has to be much lighter. My mom ordered the swordfish, but it looked very dry and the mashed potatoes at the base were quite bland. My dad liked his burger, but felt his fries were too burnt. I did really enjoy my martini and felt it was the only well-priced item on the menu. I think I would definitely recommend Harvest to grab drinks with a beautiful view, but dinner would definitely best be served elsewhere.

Cannot tell you how awesome today's lunch was. The ambience was a 10+ setting in a canyon with the hills of Laguna Beach surrounding you . Our server, Jayne was most accommodating. It was such a fine dining experience. From the valet personnel to the bus boys to the chef, everything was amazing if you want an upscale dining experience this bus the place.

Wine menu

This is a really beautiful spot. The restaurant itself feels like a nice slightly upscale type of lodge. The menu is really thoughtful and well put together. Everything tastes fresh and homemade. They mention a lot of locally grown produce items on the menu. The Caesar salad was perfect. The wagyu cheesesteak was more bready than I would have liked, but still good. The homemade chips were fabulous. I would get this just to bring home. The apple and pecan pie were really really good. The burger was absolutely massive. Other than the salads, everyone we were with stated that their food was a bit unseasoned. I suggest putting salt and pepper on the tables, if the goal of the chef is to season foods so lightly. Why not 5 stars?? The service was just okay. Our server was really sweet. She tried hard. Little things were missing, like clearing plates. Offering cream with coffee. Refilling or asking for additional beverages. We had to flag her down a few times with empty glasses that had been there for awhile. The busboys were very helpful once we flagged them. I mention it, because that kind of service doesn't match the prices or the vibe I think they are going for. It is still a lovely place, and we will be back. Note: it's valet only.

One of the best experiences we've had. The food was amazing, and our waiter whose name I unfortunately forgot was excellent. The ambiance and vibe were relaxed and cozy, making the whole atmosphere really enjoyable. Every dish was great, and overall it was a complete experience. It truly couldn't have been better.

wild mushroom pasta, baked lobster mac and cheese, french onion soup
Jeslyn L.

I was so happy with my experience here! Harvest is located on a ranch. There is a hotel where you can stay and a golf course as well. Parking for the golf course and the restaurant is valet only but it is free. I didn't make a reservation to go in but they had lots of tables on a weekday. They have both plenty of indoor and outdoor seating options. The indoor vibes are very warm and cozy and the outdoor vibes are nice with the views of the ranch. In the indoor seating, they also have couches and booths. Additionally, they have seating where they have large windows and it also overlooks the ranch! The service here was great. Upon seating they got us started with waters and offered to move heaters next to us since it was a cloudy day. We also got blankets to stay warm. Their food was also really good! We wanted to try the breakfast menu but got there at around 12 (which is when they start serving their lunch menu), but even so, the lunch menu had so many options we wanted to try. The appetizers and starters all sound good, and the servers are really warm and nice introducing the menu. We ordered the french onion soup, wild mushroom pasta, and the baked lobster mac and cheese. They were all delicious! The french onion soup is flavored perfectly and I loved the cheese on top. The wild mushroom pasta was also delicious. The pasta was cooked nicely and the mushroom flavor was strong. The mushroom itself is really soft and not hard at all. The lobster mac and cheese had the perfect ratio of lobster to cheese. I really enjoyed my experience at the restaurant. After finishing food at Harvest, you can walk a little next to the golf course, or take pictures in front of the mountains of the ranch. If you go during the Christmas season, they also have a huge christmas tree outside the restaurant.

TLDR; beautiful restaurant, very attentive staff, and mixed flavor food. The drinks were delicious and perfectly made. The appetizers were good and flavorful especially the bread, cheese board, shrimp cocktail, and croquettes. The onion soup was flavorful and good as well. The salmon wasn't bad but something within the flavor of the sauce it was drenched in made it off putting. The reduction in the braised short rib ruined the meal and the potato pie was more of a leftover hash brown. The scallops were alright but could have been cooked a touch longer which left them a little slimey. The milk and cookies saved the dessert because they were delicious! Get these and do not miss out.

Shawn S.

This place blew me away. First you are greeted with free valet parking. Next you see the stunning views of the luscious green mountains overhead. The staff are wonderful, very professional and greeting you by your last name. The texture of the menu is the best I have ever felt. The food is fantastic too, large portions and high quality. Be sure to walk around and enjoy the views after eating.

Croissant sandwich
Min Z.

Located inside The Ranch at Laguna Beach, the restaurant oversees the golf course from outside patio. The staff is friendly and kind in preparing celebration for special occasions. The majority of the ingredient comes fresh from its own garden, which you can schedule the tour directly with concierge. Highly recommend the tour to dive deep into its sustainability effort and to get some action at the "chicken theatre". The menu changes seasonally to always have the best ingredients, so you can't go wrong with anything on the menu.

In a canyon in Laguna Beach: Simply wonderful atmosphere to have a long, leisurely luncheon with longtime friends. Luckily, We came at a non-busy time. It was so extremely relaxing to enjoy food, wine and conversation at a beautiful restaurant in a canyon of Laguna Beach where we could actually hear each other. The patio setting ideal. Our waiter, Edgar, made us feel so welcome and didn't rush us in any way. That being said, I didn't think the food was overly spectacular. It was very good, truly. I would definitely go there again. Perhaps order that special hamburger that my friend had. She said it was delicious. I had the chicken club sandwich - a great combination of fresh ingredients, just a bit dry. If I ordered again, I'm sure I won't insult the cook by asking for a little extra mayo. Chocolate chip cookies for dessert were perfect. We loved having the actual wine bottle brought to our table so we could see it poured directly from the bottle. Class. And a terrific wine list! See Guy S. review who thoughtfully posted the Wine & Spirit list. : ) Overall it was decent food with superb service in a beautiful setting. Valet parking & a little navigation needed to drive up to find the actual restaurant.

Crispy octopus
MaDonna W.

Celebrating at harvest is absolutely the best experience you could have whether it be a birthday or a wedding or an anniversary or just life in general.. It's always better at harvest. We had the most amazing waiter , Sal he gave much personal attention. It was fantastic. A handwritten birthday card was given. The dessert was amazing handwritten chocolate on the plate. The food is so good. It's far a table. They have very seasonal delicious fresh food. The pumpkin gnocchi was so delicious the crispy octopus one of my favorites, the French onion soup, and the butternut squash soup. You must try before they go away. The roasted chicken is one of my favorites and for dessert if you can have the apple pie if you have room left, you must try it it is absolutely out of this world just like grandma would make!

After hearing positive reviews about Harvest, I finally decided to try it. The outdoor setting overlooking the golf course and the cozy atmosphere were by far the most peaceful I've experienced. The food was delicious, high quality, and the service was perfect.

Our reservation was supposed to be for 6:15 so I felt uneasy about the situation. Ultimately they called me around 9:30am the day of the reservation to apologize and say there was nothing they could do. That was it.

Took my mother-in-law here for her birthday and we all had such a great experience!…read more We got there around 4-4:15pm and had about a 20 minute wait, but we were able to find a high top table that we got to sit at and were able to order drinks from the bar, so that helped to pass our time. We got seated at our table at our table around 4:30p and had the most perfect view of the ocean! *we went on a Friday night and noticed the patio cleared out about 4:45-5pm and I didn't appear to have a lot of people waiting during that time. The main patio was covered with umbrellas, so once you are seated for dinner, there was plenty of umbrellas for shade and heaters for when it got a little cooler. For our food orders, and as recommended by our server, we went with their seafood options and ordered their Pacific Ceviche for an appetizer and for Entrees my husband got the Roasted Halibut and me and my mother-in-law both got the Scallop and Shrimp pasta. We all loved our dishes and were very satisfied with our choices. Their menu does have non-seafood options, but why not to try what they're most prominent for? They don't have a dessert menu, but they heard that we were celebrating mom's birthday so they brought us a little Toffee Cake to share and enjoy...and for a place that doesn't have dessert, the cake was pretty delicious. Such a cute place all around. My husband and I can't wait to go back! Parking - they have valet parking available right in front of the restaurant or theres street metered parking in the surrounding area.

On the deck overlooking the Pacific Ocean! What a beautiful view!!…read moreWe came here to celebrate a friend's birthday. Upon arrival, you'll find that the valet completely disregards the flow of the street. They use the southbound lane as a parking lot, effectively turning a small two-way road into a one-way alley. The valet guys were also rude to people trying to drive through for no apparent reason. When sitting outside on the deck, there are 12 heaters available, but the hostess wouldn't turn them on. (I've eaten at many waterfront restaurants, and they all turn the heaters on--especially when the temperature drops from 80°F and sunny to 68°F after the sun goes down.) The website states no seating after 8 p.m., yet they were still seating people well after 8:15. The menu was also not what I was expecting. While waiting for dinner, the aroma of marijuana drifted across the dining area. (I know they can't control what happens outside their establishment.) the deck is roped off because apparently it's unsafe and could fall off at any moment in addition to the rotting floor. The food: The menu is underwhelming. I ordered the chicken with sun-dried tomato risotto and vegetables. The risotto was undercooked and flavorless, and the chicken was also lacking flavor. I sampled the New York steak with mashed potatoes--the steak was cooked well, but the potatoes were cold. We didn't even bother ordering dessert and went elsewhere instead.

From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warmth and enthusiasm, but it was our waitress, Kaysha, who truly made our visit unforgettable. Kaysha delivered service that was nothing short of extraordinary. It felt as though she was genuinely invested in our dining experience, going above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. Her attention to detail was impressive; she anticipated our requests before we even had to ask. Whether it was recommending the perfect wine pairing or checking in on us just enough to make sure we were satisfied without being intrusive, Kaysha was the epitome of what great service should be. Now, let's talk about the food! Each dish we ordered was nothing short of fabulous. The flavors were vibrant, and the presentation was stunning. It's clear that the chefs at Hook and Anchor take immense pride in their craft. From the fresh seafood to the mouthwatering desserts, every bite was a delightful experience that complemented Kaysha's outstanding service. As a family that truly appreciates a great dining experience, we understand that a fantastic meal can fall flat without the right service. Thankfully, with Kaysha at the helm, our evening was elevated to something special. She was not just a waitress; she was a crucial part of our night, making us feel welcomed and valued. If you want to enjoy an incredible meal in Dana Point, Hook and Anchor is a must-visit. Be sure to ask for Kaysha--her dedication and charm will undoubtedly enhance your experience. She truly shines and deserves all the accolades for making our evening remarkable!

The owner served us initially, and he was really friendly and funny. We ordered a bottle of wine, and some cocktails. We put in some salads and an appetizer, they were really really good. But after that, our server (the owner we were told) left, and another server introduced himself. The new server was inattentive. He sat chatting with the other servers at the bar, leaving empty glasses and empty plates on the table. We had to flag him to come back to fill water. Having been myself in the service industry for years, my biggest pet peeve is when servers sit and chat where you can see them, and when they do come, they don't do a sweep and take care of things on the table. We had to put our empty glasses and trash on a side table. It was weird. The bolognese had hardly any meat in it. It was mostly tomato and onion. I've been to Argentina. Meat is a staple. Also weird. We ordered dessert and after waiting for 5-10 minutes, the server came back and told us they were missing crucial ingredients to make it.

We waited about 30 minutes for the food, but that was understandable because the restaurant was packed and the workers were doing their best. We give this place 5 stars for the delicious food, beautiful atmosphere, and great service. We will definitely come back again. Thank you so much!

Delicious, well prepared, elevated Mexican dishes with an artisan's aesthetic flare to put it…read moremildly. From the beef options to the ever so delightful seafood options - your tastebuds will enjoy a night out here. Atmosphere is energetic and most inviting. Excellent for a date night or book a gathering - you'll be well cared for - staff is most welcoming. Views across PCH allow glimpses of the ocean and sunset beyond. Highly recommend / suggest you make a reservation.

PHENOMENAL dinner service from the waiters here. Great cocktail pairing recommendations with meal,…read moresuper attentive, always delivered, and great end to my engagement night. Would 100% come back. That said, I'd admit, a certain DTLA Michelin restaurant has set my expectations of south of border seafood cuisine a bit too high (starts with H) so I'll try to be reasonable. Also the items picked were surprisingly huge and i was too full to finish my meal. 9/10 The chips tasted delicious, bean dip was something new and delicious, salsa was fresh and bold, and the roasted pepper salsa was surprisingly not too spicy, really good. 8/10 trio de cheviche. Good assortment and size of the dish. Shrimp was ok, I felt it was missing something, octopus was good, my personal favorite was the marinaded tuna. 8/10 seafood chile relleno, not a bad assortment, sides were good, large portions of food. 10/10 Coco rita, this margarita is definitely something different! And pairs with everything amazingly, I love it, and this is coming from someone who normally hates coconut. 9/10 they brought out this chocolate cake I dont see on the menu but they will if it's your birthday, but in my case to celebrate my new engagement. Super moist. The place is really loud ambient wise when busy which was around 8pm which is normal of any popular place but after near closing around 9:30 is pretty quiet and casual on a Sunday. Total bill after a 21% tip ran me total $165 and I had leftovers. Free chips, 1 large giant appetizer, and 1 large entree could potentially feed 3 people if you don't eat a lot. If you don't wanna have leftovers, go easy on the chips but that's gonna be hard.
