My daughter took me on Mother's Day. We have been coming here for years, as we live in Mission Viejo. We ordered the calamari appetizer which we have always loved. It was soggy & rubbery, we returned it & it came back exactly the same way. We ordered shrimp scampi because shrimp fresca (our favorite) is no longer on the... More

The food was good, but on two occasions there, one of the entrees never showed up and there were only 4 or 5 of us in the party. They just kept saying it was coming. We all finished our entrees and it still wasn't ready. That's when we stopped going.

We have visited this Chart House several times. It sits on the bluff overlooking the Dana Point Harbor. Worth waiting for a window table or eating outside on the patio.

If your looking to celebrate a special evening, this is a great spot. The Ahi was very good and while usually not a salad bar fan this one is next level.

30 years ago I used to go to this Chart House when I lived in Capistrano.I remembered it from the view and then it was rated number 5 by Tripadvisor. The reason for this rating has to be the wonderful harbor view. I recommend you go for cocktails and dessert at sunset.We ordered filet and mashed potatoes and surf and... More

The Chart House has a great view and the design makes you feel like you are walking down the rabbit hole! The staff is very professional and the food is fantastic. The wine list isn't huge, but it has good selections.
