Best Farm To Table Restaurants in Mission Viejo / Rancho Santa Margarita

Food was excellent! Ordered the very tasty well-seasoned, flaky crusted quiche with crisp cheese topped layer served with a beautiful mixed garden salad; also ordered the wild mushroom orecchiette in a light cream sauce (hint of truffle) with cute sized squashes and Japanese mushrooms. Next time will add a protein but nice vegan option. We felt like all the ingredients were picked straight from a garden. Now the best biscuits ever! For the first time tried their homemade buttermilk chive and gruyere biscuits. A bit pricey, takes around 17-20 min but TO-DIE-FOR. We ordered them because while waiting for our table, a local was waiting to p.up his biscuits to go, bake later. Says he does this every year for Thanksgiving and it's a must. So we did and it is a must!! Hats off to the Chef Jessica Roy; truly a specialty. Served with whipped butter and orange infused blossom honey. Yum yum. Drink was the tropical garden punch-refreshing. Wish we had room for dessert...next time for sure. Just be sure to plan ahead when you want to visit the garden too. Entrance is $5 pp. My mistake was visiting a couple days earlier, discovering the cafe and returning. Had to pay entrance fee again.

The hummus and chopped salad I had today were absolutely delicious. This is a great place to meet my vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free friends--so many choices!

Our server, Edgar was outstanding. Food was excellent.
