Guidebook for San Juan Capistrano
Food Scene
This is THE BEST dining in San Juan Capistrano. Ramos House Cafe only serves breakfast and lunch, so plan accordingly. The food is delicious and the ambiance spectacular. Located in the Los Rios Historic District, along the tracks, the rustic atmosphere is creative and inventive. This is not a great place for kids, it's best for adults and only the very best behaved children. They also do not look kindly at cell-phone conversations on the premises. Leave the kids and the cell phones at home, walk down to Los Rios and enjoy the best San Juan has to offer. Saturdays and Sundays the menu is brunch only and there is often an hour or more wait. If you can go on a week day, you'll enjoy the a la carte menu and prices and possibly a shorter wait-time.

This Italian restaurant is one of our favorites. Pascuali is from Italy and has owned and run this restaurant since we moved here in 1995. The creme brulee here is our absolute favorite!

Getting Around
Take Amtrak or Metrolink for a fun train ride. The ride south to San Clemente or Oceanside or Del Mar is a fun excursion. The tracks run quite close to the beach, so you can get a great view of the sun-bathers and surfers. We have taken the train to San Diego as well. Check Amtrak and Metrolink websites for times and costs. Or visit the booth down by the tracks, during the daylight hours.
