4 Best Bistros near San Juan Capistrano

“It's hard to imagine finding an Italian restaurant of this caliber in an outdoor mall, but here it is. With a cozy atmosphere, excellent food, great service, and reasonable prices, you can't go wrong. We have been going there for years and have never been disappointed!“

“First time here, and WOW, the food is delicious!! I have a feeling that everything on the menu is fantastic. I appreciate the free bread (a lot of restaurants make you ask or even charge these days). Some improvements to be made: 1. Some artwork on the walls. This spot is so cute. I love the chairs on the patio and I think there's so much potential with just a few small touches. 2. The flies. I really don't understand the flies out front and the few inside. Maybe they know how good the food is too?? Maybe a couple small fly traps would be beneficial. Either way, I'll still be back regardless, but just wanted to add my two cents, whatever it's worth. Last thing to add, our server was very kind and competent. She was alone and managing a few large parties, and yet we barely had to wait and she was very attentive. Thank you for great food and wonderful service!“

“Super impressed by this place. We will definitely go to Barnoa Wine Company again. We were here on a Friday for Happy Hour. The wine was delicious and the charcuterie board very good. We sat outside and they did a great job making it feel secluded. Live music is always a plus for us. They say it’s a “hidden gem”, and we agree.“

“Had the Crepe Complete, cafe au lait and two apricot pastries. All were very good. The Crepe had ham, bechamel sauce and emmenthaler cheese. Delicious! It came with a salad. The ambience is great. Nice people watching. Colorful restaurant. Gender neutral restroom. Meter parking.“
