If I had one complaint it would be that it gets very loud inside the restaurant, can’t talk to people at your table very easily.

- JJohnMinneapolis - St. Paul •5 reviews5.0Dined on Dec 14, 2024We love the vibe at San Juan Capistrano Winery. The wine is always delicious and the servers are quite knowledgeable on the wine. The food is outstanding! The soup was homemade and fabulous. We’ve never been disappointed. Ben the bartender is spectacular! We also recommend Rochelle, who presented our wine and cheese tasting. She was well versed in the wine.More infoWine Tasting at Rancho Capistrano Winery - San Juan CapistranoPrice: Expensive• Winery• San Juan Capistrano•4.7

Outside patio seating is spread out better. There is live music, which is very nice, but don't get a table near the performer - - the speaker is too loud to hold a conversation.More infoScarlet Kitchen and LoungePrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• Mission Viejo / Rancho Santa Margarita•4.6
