Bon Appétit Cafe

Wonderful atmosphere delicious food, lovely staff. Owner is here making sure everyone is happy with food, and service. Pastries made in house. Great coffee. Atmosphere has a definite French vibe. We were visiting and tried a few mediocre breakfast places in the area. Tried this place and that is where we came every day.

What an incredible find! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with such warmth and hospitality. The food was spectacular, but the grilled octopus, cheese fondue, and soufflé were the true stars of the evening. We’ve already decided that this restaurant will be our "must-visit" every time we’re in Dana Point. 5 stars!

We really enjoyed this place! Great atmosphere, very friendly staff, and they found us a comfortable spot when we came with our child, which we truly appreciated. The service was attentive, they checked in to make sure everything was good, and even the owner came to greet us — such a nice touch. The pastries are delicious and the Lavazza coffee is excellent. If you’re looking for a cozy place with good food and great coffee — this is definitely worth visiting!

LOVE this place! The restaurant had been open less than a week when we happened upon it and everything. Was beyond impressive. The food was incredible. The staff were attentive and friendly. The restaurant was clean. The decor was beautiful and the whole experience was one to remember. Everything we ate was delicious and I’m still thinking about the blueberry toast. The owner took time to personally greet us and make us feel like family. I wish I was local and could become a regular

We happened to walk by while in Dana Point on a girls trip and they had been open 3 days and knew we needed to come. Our food was amazing. Everything we ate was so flavorful. Our server, MaryAnn was incredibly helpful with everything we needed. We were able to meet the owner, Steve, and he was wonderful to talk to and so kind.
