- MMeghanOrange County •3 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoWe made reservations for our anniversary. We were seated at our table and proceeded to the bar to order some happy hour cocktails. They were strong and delicious. Our server was very kind, funny, and helpful with us making our menu decisions. I had the prime rib and my husband had the prosciutto wrapped salmon. Both were amazing. My husband had the fixed price meal with soup, the salmon, and lava cake for dessert. We were comped a delicious slice of mud pie for our anniversary dessert. The food and service were overall excellent, and the views are unmatched! We will be back for happy hour in the bar!More infoChart House Restaurant - Dana PointPrice: Moderate• Seafood• Dana Point / Monarch Beach•4.4

Discover Dana Point
Few places in the United States have views like Southern California, and Dana Point is one of the most impressive among them. The beautiful weather and the open ocean waves draw some of the most exciting people and the most innovative chefs to the area. Pacific Coast seafood is beyond compare in this area, and many places serve it simply and with a straightforward approach. Just add salt, oil and lemon, and the ocean will flavor the rest. The morning catch is that day's lunch. Another great product of the California coast is the fantastic produce that is fresh and the choice of the season. While the wonderful ocean views draw your eyes, let the taste of the Pacific draw your stomach.
