    Wonderful food in at iconic Dana Point Harbor. A bit noisy, but it was a crowded Friday night. Seafood bisque was rich, creamy, with bits of seafood and heat. Grilled swordfish with butter sauce was so good!

    Our group of 6 enjoyed a delightful lunch with a window table view of the harbor. Everyone indicated their meals were excellent and recommended for future diners. Our server, Stephanie (I believe), was professional, efficient and very delightful. All in all, a lovely place to enjoy lunch.
