Absolutely one of my favorite local spots in Dana Point! Not too busy (sorry Still Water). They have amazing prices on food and... drinks! And a darn good happy hour set up! They have amazing brunch options with bottomless mimosas! The most amazing thingabout the mimosas is that they fresh squeeze the orange juice into a small carafe and serve a FULL glass of champagne! So evenif you just want a quick night cap or hours of fun The Wine Bistro and Whiskey bar is the place to be! Read more

Surf and turf steak and lobster for $29 can't be beat! The price blows away any competition in town by roughly 30% and the cut... of steak and lobster tail are much larger. Such a value! This place is great for a date night or just to stop in and grab asolo cocktail. On weekend nights they have live entertainment that is perfect for the ambiance. The chef there, John Byrne, isconstantly adding specials to the menu and once a month features a specially prepared meal from a different country every timeand is perfectly paired with a wine chosen by the chef. Often the chef will visit the tables to check on the satisfaction. Thismakes you feel like a valued customer. Also a great place to enjoy a brunch with friends! Also if you have a large party of over20 they are very accommodating in reserving a spot to fill your needs. The staff are all very professional and the service isquite excellent! Things I love: 1. Service 2. Price/value 3. Surf and Turf! 4. Live entertainment 5. Cocktails/wineselection 6. Ambiance 7. Desserts Things I dislike: 1. Hoping they make surf and turf permanent even if they need to raisethe price $5 2. I don't like that it's not always packed because in my opinion it deserves to be however I'm also glad that it'snot because it guarantees that I will always have a place to sit upon arrival. 3. I wish they had a larger selection of whiskeybased cocktails. 4. Not too much to dislike. Read more
