Best Gluten Free Restaurants in Laguna Hills / Lake Forest / Foothill Ranch

Had a fun date night with my husband. We always enjoy ironwood. The cocktails are delicious (hot okdiehawn is my favorite). And the service is great. My husband enjoyed the fried chicken sandwich and I had a simple butter lettuce salad with blackened salmon. Both dishes were delicious. This time we sat at a high top by the bar. We enjoyed the vibe.

Good food and great service. One of our dishes never made it out of the kitchen so we just cancelled it and they gave us free tiramisu.

It was my first time dining with RCW. After reading numerous reviews, I decided that RCW was the best place for dinner. From the moment I walked in, I was impressed by the ambiance and energy of the place. It wasn’t too rowdy, but it wasn’t too quiet either—just the right balance where you can enjoy a private dinner while still being surrounded by lively company. The food was beyond great. We started with the Brussels sprouts, which absolutely blew my mind, and then moved on to the Cowboy Steak and Filet Mignon. For dessert, we had the Whiskey Bundt Cake—an absolute must-try when you visit. Be sure to pair it with their coffee; you won’t be disappointed. We also tried the dessert wine, which had distinct chocolate raspberry notes, though those flavors only came through after a strong hit of alcohol (lol). The only downside of the night was the service at our table. From the moment we sat down, it took 20 minutes just for the server to come over and take our drink order. Even after placing the drink order, it was another 20 minutes before they returned to ask about appetizers—by which time we were already ready to order our main dishes. I believe the manager noticed because she personally came over to take our dessert order. It seemed like she had seen us sitting there, twiddling our thumbs while waiting for the server. I had read reviews mentioning that the service at the Ladera Ranch location was subpar, and unfortunately, I have to agree. Other than that, I highly recommend visiting this place just for the food! Thank you to the manager on duty who noticed us sitting there uncomfortably. She is definitely service-oriented and genuinely cares about taking care of the customers.

Fiod was fabulous and Andrew our waiter was great!

We always love coming here. The staff is always high end in their treatment of each guest. My husband and I weren’t sure what we wanted and decided on pizza - make it simple. The crust is incredible, sauce was perfect. Oh and we hit the jackpot cause Wednesday you buy a pizza and get one - we took the 2nd one home. Great deal!
