L'hirondelle - Reservar una mesa

We got a great table next to the fountain at the terrace, we didn’t have a great expectations since we just picked the place for the setting but we were pleasantly surprised by some of the best informal French food we’ve had in the United States.The attention to detail in the ingredients used on their dishes is evident. The food seems to have been hand picked for ripeness and beauty. Everything was served to perfection. Attention to detail makes this one of the best restaurants we’ve been in a long, long time. It feels like having lunch in the Mediterranean.Service was great by the owner, we could have stayed there all afternoon enjoying the place. So far, the best reason to return to San Ju...

It was our first visit to the restaurant, and we were impressed by the impeccable service and exceptional food. The patio provided a lovely atmosphere, enhanced by the soothing sound of the fountain and beautiful lighting. It turned out to be the perfect venue for an engagement dinner. I proposed, and she said YES!! It truly felt like a magical night. A huge thank you to Josh and his lovely wife, Leona, for making our evening so comfortable. Their kindness and attentive service will always be remembered and appreciated. Thank you for everything you did for us!

Excellent food, cozy but elegant, French restaurant.The hosts make you feel like family.Located in old town San Juan Capistrano, across from the mission, L’Hirondelle is a family owned restaurant.Our family has been coming here for years and it’s a local favorite.Recommend the filet with Béarnaise sauce. If you want an appetizer start with the Mushroom Farci (shrimp, crab cheese) in a cream sauce ?.If you happen to come by on the weekend and it’s Sunday morning have Champagne Brunch on the patio.Excellent food, great staff, highly recommended!!

I recently dined at L'Hirondelle with my mom on a Wednesday evening, and we had a wonderful experience! It's a classic, quintessential restaurant: charming ambiance, excellent service, and exquisite food. It felt like something out of "Mastering the Art of French Cooking." My mom ordered the beef bourguignon, while I opted for the scallops, which were absolutely perfect. Of course, it didn't hurt that the drink servings were quite generous...

This restaurant is absolutely charming and delicious! Everything we ordered was superb, it is hard to choose a favorite dish of the night.The escargot were perfectly garlicky, the French onion soup was so decadent with the gruyere cheese, the volcano lamb shank just peeled off the bone and the sauce was spectacular, the rack of lamb was cooked to perfection with a perfect crust and the desserts were amazing not too sweet, just perfect.

We drove 130 miles round trip to celebrate our anniversary, and our evening far surpassed our expectations. The escargot was delightful, the hot bacon spinach salad was impeccable, and the roasted duck with orange sauce was exceptional. There are so many other tempting dishes on the menu that we'll have to plan another visit, or several! Many cherished memories of fine dining were rekindled. Valerie and Travis Montgomery

This place is such a quaint spot right across from the Mission. We met here with family from LA since this was a decent middle point. The food and service did not disappoint. This was real French cuisine made with fresh ingredients which always make food taste better. The wine list was great too. We will definitely return.

Absolutely amazing food, service, and atmosphere. We went with two young children (one with special needs) and they were so friendly and accommodating. They have their own parking lot and handicap parking, very easy to get to. Highly recommend! Parking: Behind restaurant, they have their own lot with plenty of spots

I was really hungry when we got here. Served us bread which was warm and fresh. So good that we all consumed 1 basket per person (about 4 slices per basket). Their calamari steak is excellent! It is not available every time...just ask your host if you can order and they'll check with the kitchen.
