Great team, great meal, just great 😊
The Ecology Center is one of my favorite places to take my Daughter Marcy! The people who work and volunteer there are some of the most kind and caring people you can meet🙏 The atmosphere makes you feel so calm, it’s like an old farm house vibe to it all😌 our favorite thing to do there is to buy some fruits and veggies to cook for dinner but before we go we sit on the front porch of the farmhouse and eat some blueberries, raspberries or dates and just soak in the fresh...read full review

Campesino Café offers incredible farm-to-table dishes, with ingredients sourced directly from their on-site farm at the Ecology Center in San Juan Capistrano. The menu features seasonal produce, ensuring fresh and healthy options. Popular items include Pan Fried Tamales and Roasted Kogigu Squash and Apple, along with a simple best oatmeal of life made with the best quality ingredients on earth. The outdoor dining space is lovely, creating a relaxing atmosphere for brunch items, organic food, and sandwiches. The friendly staff and cashier who helps navigate the menu make it a great place for a healthy, chill meal experience. Recently, customers have raved about the sourdough pizzas, especially the Fungi Pizza, which has a perfectly chewy crust. Drinks like espresso and iced cortados are recommended, with visitors also enjoying the cantaloupe juice. The rustic atmosphere and welcoming service add to its charm, making it a treasured spot in the community.
Guests also highlight the quality and freshness of the food, with some calling it their favorite place of all time. The outdoor space is especially appreciated, with barefoot children enjoying the veggies and the salads, such as the Caesar, receiving high praise for their big portions. The food, including a beans and grain bowl with perfectly cooked beans and a vinaigrette that was sour and savory, comes out quickly. Early visitors often find the focaccia sandwiches worth getting two of before they sell out. The farm-to-table experience extends to special events like the Farm Dinner at Ecology Center, where dishes like the Farm Tomato & Burrata Salad with toasted almonds and Ceviche Tostadas with Ahi are enjoyed, along with house-made Cavatelli al’dente that transports diners to Italy, all paired with estate wines. Desserts like the Farm Fruit Crumble complete the meal beautifully. The staff and chefs are highly appreciated for their efforts, and many look forward to returning.
