This is located on the beach so street parking can be iffy esp on weekends…read more I was able to walk in and get a table immediately on Friday. I got a house drink and the wood fired fish with veg. Both were made well. Only problem with the dish was the seasoning, so heavy on the salt. But the cook was perfect, fall off the fork tender. Vibes are chill and they have outdoor gardenish seating too if indoor or bar seating isn't appealing or it's a hot day.

Grilled Cheese - Seriously a MUST order. My picture doesn't even come close to doing it justice. So so good! Shrimp & Chorizo Tacos - We've loved these for years! They took them off the menu for a while and we're so glad they're back because they're sooo good. Burger - 10/10. Juicy, cooked perfectly, and really flavorful lots of fresh ingredients. Ceviche - A little on the small side, but super fresh and flavor is You can't beat the location, it's right on the beach with ocean views and that makes everything better :) We had a group of 7 and our server was awesome. She was really sweet, kept checking in on us, and made everything easy even with a bigger group. If you're in Laguna and looking for a spot with good food, great views, and a chill vibe, The Deck is always a great choice. There's so many options and haven't had a bad dish here ever. I didn't order them this Time but we normally get the dozen oysters and they are delicious

No more ciopino so we ordered the ahi poke. Was good. This place is set to close September 7, 2026 to make room for the new hotel setup. So sad to see this place close down as the location and vibe was so nice! Food was ok. Not the best, but okay. And they had a bar too! Byeeee if we don't meet again and thank you!

What a happy accident! We stumbled onto McClain Cellars after breakfast next door and ended up…read morecanceling our Museum of Make Believe tickets to stay all day instead, no regrets whatsoever Eddie and Agnus made the whole experience. Both were so knowledgeable about the wines and just genuinely friendly, the kind of hospitality that makes you want to stay "just one more glass" way longer than planned. The wine itself was delicious across the board. Loved that we could purchase all the stuff for a charcuterie board and have it put together for us. The vibe was absolutely perfect! If you're in Laguna, skip the plans and just go. You might end up there all day too!

While visiting Laguna Beach, I went out looking for artist studios and had "find a good wine bar"…read moreon my list. I didn't find the studios, but I found this incredible gem instead. Eddie knew the story behind every wine and made the whole experience feel personal and easy. He was welcoming in a way that lets you settle in and enjoy yourself, with great wine, music, and a perfect atmosphere. I ended up joining the wine membership and can't wait for my bottles to arrive. So glad I found McClain Cellars and can't wait to go back.

We made a completely last-minute stop at Laguna Canyon Winery because it happened to be on our…read moreroute, and I'm so glad we did. The 2021 Laguna Cabernet Sauvignon was incredibly smooth, with low acidity and soft, well-integrated tannins--exactly the kind of wine I love. Every sip was balanced, approachable, and enjoyable. What surprised me most wasn't just the wine--it was the experience. This is the kind of place you wouldn't expect to find, making it feel like a true hidden gem. It's absolutely worth the visit and is perfect for a weekend getaway or even a two-day trip. The tasting was personal and welcoming. The people here truly know what they're doing. They don't just work at the winery--they helped create the wines themselves, and hearing the stories behind each bottle made the experience even more meaningful. If you're looking for an authentic California wine experience with beautiful surroundings, exceptional hospitality, and delicious wines, I highly recommend making the stop. Sometimes the unplanned detours become the highlight of the journey.

We never felt rushed or pressured to order quickly. I got the spicy chicken sandwich after seeing previous reviews, and my wife got the Lagunaian wedge and Mac & cheese. Everything was exceptional. I love blue cheese, but am not the biggest fan of fried chicken with cheese on it. This combo flipped me on my head, so delicious with the blue cheese slaw. The Mac & cheese was almost like a hybrid of a baked Mac and a gooier stovetop style Mac, and the six cheese blend added a lot of depth of flavor. We have already agreed that we will be back at least once more while we're down here for the chicken sandwich again.

We got our food in about 10 min or so. I got the mushroom burger which was great. The patty was medium done and very juicy. The salmon dish was not bad, but the vegetables didn't taste as good. There's parking below the restaurant and you can validate. Big plus!

Okay so the first the Sammy Chili Bagel is so delicious I had to bring my friend back to try it…read moretoo! The cheddar jalapeño bagel was fresh, the cream cheese was delish just 10s across the board. On the other hand the Peaches and Cream Matcha latte sounded so delicious as a matcha lover and it was a complete disappointment, ngl i want my $10 back for that drink lol. It did not have a distinctive peach flavor or even matcha for that matter. It was milky and flavorless a complete opposite experience from the bagel. Maybe stick to the food and not the drinks when trying. Staff was super friendly chill vibes and the atmosphere was relaxing chill vibes as well. Will definitely be a forever fan of that bagel no doubt. Y'all broke my heart with the matcha though.

This was my first time coming and there was a pretty long line, but the line was very slow. There…read morewere times when it was stand still because no one was taking any orders. It was also veryyyyy hot inside, if you are heat sensitive I would not recommend going inside or at least if you do, to bring a fan and water. I wish there were more signs in front of the pasteries to say what they were, I think people asking questions about what everything was also slowed the line down. I got the empanada, chocolate coffee croissant, pop tart, and their savory croissant. Everything definitely would have been better warmed, but we were only asked if we wanted the empanada warmed. Also, the chocolate coffee croissant does not taste like chocolate at all. I would not recommend if you are looking for a chocolate pastry. I was very disappointed, it tasted like a sweet pastry with a hint of coffee. The rest were ok, the pop tart was filled with apples but I wish the apple flavor was stronger. The savory croissant and empanada were good but definitely needed to be warmed. Overall I had a very lackluster experience here and will most likely not be back.
