Best Restaurants for People Watching in Ladera Ranch

Absolutely a culinary delight and drinks equally enjoyable and our wait staff the best. Celebrating a friend's belated Birthday and we all enjoyed every moment spent in total pleasure.

Frist time eating at Cucina. I loved it! Wonderful experience!

The restaurant had lovely views over the marina and the staff were very helpful. Our waiter, Michael, was really good. The food was great. We had the California Halibut and the Hawaian chicken. Both were delicious. Another restaurant to add to our list of restaurants to return to when in the area.

This was my first time lunching here. Dined here for dinner multiple times over the years. Lamb sliders were delicious! Sweet potato fries perfectly cooked with yummy sauce. My daughter had the blackened salmon tacos, which she loved. Our waitress was friendly and had good knowledge of the menu. Only issue was not refreshing my drink as requested but she did offer to make it "to go" as I was closing out the bill. All in all, dining experience was very enjoyable.

Awesome food and atmosphere with a great little music venue upstairs, Ivanz.
