Daily pickings from the Gardens and local farms populate the ever changing seasonal menu that highlights the best and most flavorful ingredients of the season. Look for ingredients at their peak, stunning edible blooms and herbs right from the Sherman grounds, and cuisine that is nothing short of inspired and delicious. . Please note: we are located within the Sherman Library and Gardens, to which there is a $5.00 per person admission fee.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our brunch at 608 Dahlia. We were celebrating a birthday here, and many special touches made the birthday guy feel even more appreciated. The food is delicious and the atmosphere is unique and lovely.

    The Tea House on Los Rios, San Juan Capistrano is much more than just some place to grab a meal. It offers a dining experience; one which won't soon be forgotten. From the beautiful grounds to the interior decor and delightful outdoor patio, again this place offers an experience in dining like no other. The chefs have been employed here for many years. The staff members all, from a host or hostess to the servers and other staff members are very knowledgeable about the menus. Yes, two menus, one for the foods and another for the 50+ varieties of loose-leaf teas available for your pleasure. Over the past 27 years the Niccola Family has taken a great deal of time, talent and efforts to bring you the best of the best in dining experiences.
