    Pure heaven!

    Escaped the Palm Springs heat with our trip to Dana point and San Juan Capistrano, last time we were here they had already sold out of the chocolate sourdough croissants. Came early on a Sunday this time picked up a couple of loaves of sourdough. And split what we think may be the best chocolate croissant we've ever had. Life really is FKN beautiful.

    FKN Bread has yummy bakery items that are easy to pick up and always freshly baked. I loved the scone and am looking forward to coming back to try other items. Friendly staff, parking available nearby.

    Not only does the name captivates you, but so does their bread. Had to make a stop here when I went to go visit the mission. They make fresh bread every morning and said the flavor that sells out the most was the jalapeño cheddar. That's exactly what I got. The crust was thick, the inside was chewy, and the jalapeño to cheddar ratio was good. The staff here were so friendly. My only regret was not coming sooner in the day to try their baked pastries they offer as most were sold out in the late afternoon.

    Amazing sourdough. I love bread and this place is dangerous for me. I want to move in! Get there early before they sell out. Try the different flavors. The rosemary garlic and classic flavors are my favorites. Well, unless there's Italian Parmesan or ...... just try it!

    I would give this place more like 3 1/2 stars. They had been on my list for awhile since we always go to brunch across the street and I had been wanting to try them. I got a banana bread/cake slice and it was good. I really liked the cream on top. The sourdough cookie was not my fav. It was very dry. I think I spent almost $8-10 on two items. It's very pricy for 2 pieces of bread. I would come back to try their sandwiches.

    They sell out of most pastries before 10am on the weekend, and with good reason! I hear the bagels are so good, so I'm excited to try them next time. We got the almond croissant and chocolate chip oatmeal cookie. Both were delicious, but the croissant was especially yummy. The service was quick and friendly. The inside is small but has a cute mural for photos.

    Stopped by FKN Bakery while my wife was at a doctor's appointment and decided to grab a couple of cookies (I'm a big cookie fan and always down to try a new spot). Glad I did -- these were very good. I went with the salted chocolate chip and the peanut butter dark chocolate. Both were crispy on the edges, soft in the middle, generously sized, and reasonably priced. Easy 4 out of 5 stars for each. Parking was a little tricky...ended up in the back paid lot, didn't feel like paying the two bucks, so I made it a quick in-and-out mission and was relieved to come back to my car still ticket-free am I had two cookies in a brown bag - win win and a grin! Didn't get a chance to try the bread this time, but I'll definitely be back to check it out. Big thumbs up for the cookies

    We were eating brunch at Breezy and was curious to see what type of bread they sell solely by their name. We got the cheddar jalopeno sourdough bread to bring back to LA. The owner was really friendly and shared that the the name is the first letter of his kids name. When I got home, I tried the bread and it was *chef's kiss* very delicious when toasted with butter. It's a vert small shop, mainly to go.

    Love sourdough bread! They have delicious loaves, toasts, sandwiches and pastries. Very reasonable prices in the cutest town.

    I couldn't agree more! FKN is the first letter of the Owners children's names. Thought that was a coo lil play on the name!

    Great spot to pick up fresh made bread or a lil something sweet while galavanting through downtown San Juan

    Chocolate chip cinnamon sourdough loaf

    If you're reading this, here's what you need to do. Go to FKN bread and purchase any sourdough loaf because they're all delicious. Then go home, slice it, toast it and put some good butter on it. Thank me later. Maybe even get yourself a pastry too. They're all great but the lemon blueberry muffin hits different. Don't have a photo of it because my mouth was not patient enough. PSA: I am officially addicted to their chocolate chip cinnamon sourdough loaf. Might be one of the best things I've ever eaten and I will continue to purchase it and eat it for dessert every night. Thank you.

The chicken tacos were VERY big, I came hungry and I have a large appetite to say the least and one of those tacos itself was pretty filling. Both salsas on it were delicious (they offer a red and green one)! I also threw on a little bit on onion, cilantro and rice and it was even better. Easily the best taco I have ever had. The quesadilla had the best chew on it that is hard to describe in words.....it was slightly crispy on the outside yet a little soft and the flavor on the cheese that was so perfect. The cheese even had that melted and chewy feel to it that just makes your head want to explode because it can't comprehend how something could be so good. The taquitos were so nice and crispy and had such a pleasant blend of all the flavors it packs in its shell, you really get all of them in each bite. They are so generous with their portions in it and fill up the tray all the way to the top. This place is a gift, run here don't walk.

Paired the food with some horchata and agua fresca. The service can be a bit slow, maybe because it is usually busy. One thing to note is that you will need to order the drink with your savory order but pick up is on the other side with the sweets.

It is located in the beautiful historic town of San Juan Capistrano founded in 1776. The two-story red brick and wood building that the Restaurant occupy was constructed in 1883 and served not only as the town's courthouse which was Then presided by Judge Richard Egan. But it also served as Judge Egan's private residence on the second floor. Following years of vacancy, this building has undergone near total interior and exterior restoration, preserving its 1880s structure while converting it for commercial use. It is known as "Egan House". Years ago, prior to its restoration, i had the privilege of walking onto the front porch and peeking through the windows of this old courthouse as it was still vacant and, in its original interior state. Today. As i walked up these wooden stairs once again and onto the front Porch, i was immediately transported back in time. There is lots of free parking around the restaurant. The exterior has 2 outdoor dining areas. One on the side of the building and one along the narrow front porch baluster. The doors and tall windows look very similar. So i almost missed the front door if it wasn't for a printed sign that said "Entrance" next to the entry door. I must not be the only one :) The interior is charming and bright, and maintains its 19th century vintage character blended with modern and vintage decor. The walls are covered with Historical photographs. The indoor dining area is known as "Harmony Hall" There is also a small private dining area on the second floor. Great for a group or a celebration. There are 3 separate restrooms. 1 on the first floor and 2 on the 2nd floor. Not bad for an old building. You order first. Grab your number and find a table. As you stand in line, you'll find a free standing menu rack. I don't see this too often and i think that it's a great idea as that gives you time to look at the menu while waiting in line. As you make your way to the register, you walk along their display case that showcases all the pastries, cold sandwiches and food bar. I really like their menu. So many good dishes. And It offers something for everyone. I love that you can order any of the menu items all day. So, today, I had my breakfast at 2pm :) The menu is too long to describe. So, Please see photos for the complete 6 page menu. I ordered the Spanish Omelette, a peach ice tea with green tea. And for dessert i had a mixed berry crostata. I got my food in less than 10 min. The service was great. I did not realize that there was a self serve utensil and condiments station. So, my server was kind to get me some utensil and showed me where the utensil station was. The Spanish omelette has shredded machaca beef, peppers and onions. Topped with House Salsa, Cotija cheese, Crema and cilantro. I opted to leave out the Crema as i am not a big fan of sour cream. This was one of the best omelettes i have ever had. It was warm. The eggs were light and airy. It was packed with tender and tasty shredded beef. All of these ingredients combined with the delicious mild salsa, fresh cilantro and Cotija cheese paired incredibly well. It is a must have. The Mixed berry crostata had a soft crust on the outside. Moist on the inside with tons of berries partly melted into a marmelade. (I had them warm it up) It was not overly sweet at all which was great. The whole thing was lightly coated with powdered sugar. It was excellent. As for the Peach ice tea. Well it was just a good peach ice tea with green tea and light peach flavored syrup. It was refreshing. Great food. Generous portions. very reasonable prices and great service. Can't beat it. I highly recommend trying Ellie's Table.
