Rancho Capistrano Winery

Our experience here is always delightful. The service, the atmosphere (which is always animated) and the food always delicious. We know the menu well and have our favorites but never walk away disappointed. Always fun to go there. Wine Club is exceptional. Their wines are great too!!

They were closed. We made reservations, but when we got there, door was locked. There wasn't even a sign on the door saying they were closed.

Rancho Capistrano winery is always amazing! Such a cute little spot with amazing food & friendly staff. We love sitting out on the patio. This is always one of our favorite spots!

Once again....A wonderful experience from service to great food with amazing flavors. Janay took care of us and she did not miss a beat. Always friendly conversation and a pleasure to visit with. This is our "comfort spot". We hope that she hears about our praise because she deserves it

Lovely eatery. Had reservations to sit outside at sunset. Seating is along streetside. Nice unbrellas for shade. Great service. Zach was exceptional, and so knowledgeable! Food and drink were A+. Had beef strogoganoff, and cioppino with lobster. Both were delicious. Will definitely return, and highly recommend.

We had the brunch menu with so many delicious choices. The highlight was the Bougie waffles. So amazing. It came with a mimosa. We chose grapefruit. Had never had that before.

This was our first time at this restaurant in San Clemente and Zack was very informative along with great service and food was excellent. We'll be back!

The food was great. Our server was great. Wine is great. Great place if you love seafood. Great location. Only downside is the sweet homeless gal who wanted to hang out with us which was a bit awkward. Was glad I had reserved indoor seating.

We typically love the mussels but tonight they were overcooked, small and very tough. I asked to have them remade and the chef said they would be exactly the same?? I've had them numerous times and have loved them. We were very disappointed with the attitude and food tonight.

We had never been here before and were looking forward to it. We got a bottle of Bella Chardonnay. None of the wine brands were familiar. Tasted like two buck Chuck for $55 a bottle. Two of us got the halibut which was fine but by no means special. The third got an ahi dish. Also just average. Our server was nice but we won't be back.

This is our favorite restaurant in San Clemente. We are part of the Wine Club but make every effort to go there when we can and recommend it to friends in the area. The food is delicious--the service is amazing. Everyone is always so attentive and we always leave feeling so good. This is a go-to place and we highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for a good place to eat and have a good time.

I’m basing my food rating on the wine since we didn’t eat. We did a 5 glass wine tasting of mixed red and whites. We ended up buying a bottle of delicious Rose. Service was great.

Always great, we came to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary and we're not disappointed!

Servers are all amazing. The restaurant is beautiful inside and out. Great food great wine. We ordered about every appetizer and half the menu. Not a bad bite. Highly recommend

Very impressed. Happy with our choice of restaurant to celebrate a friend's retirement. Everything from start to finish was first rate.
