Best Restaurants for Special Occasions 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.

We were warmly greeted by the hostess and were sat at our table within 10 minutes or less. Our server Amanda came by the table shortly and was very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu and item specific. Throughout dinner she was attentive and prompt. The Macadamia Nut Halibut is fantastic and a must try. Their selection of oysters is also good and all were very tasty. We will definitely be coming back.

The waiter, Taylor, was terrific. He had high energy, was friendly, and catered to our first experience.

My husband and I have been coming here for 4 years and each time we’ve come it has ALWAYS been romantic whether it was during the spring, summer, fall, or winter. The ambiance is amazing and the phenomenal servers will go out of their way to make it a romantic night for any couple coming in. The food and drinks are fantastic and worth the price in my opinion. My husband loves their exclusive & unique rum choices! Our valentines day experience will be an experience we’ll never forget, it was beautiful!
