The restaurant is expensive but we completely enjoyed our experience. The food was excellent (we did the chef's tasting menu and especially liked the fresh hamachi and a fois gras dish) as were the wine pairings. The setting is incredibly beautiful. We watched the sunset over one of the prettiest beaches in Southern California. The room itself is rather simple... more

Studio is a beautiful restaurant with wonderful food. If you can time your reservation to start before sunset, the views of the sunset from Studio are second to none. The service was fantastic and transparent (in a good way). I would definitely recommend if you are looking for an expensive (but worth it) meal in Laguna or if you are... more

We can be qualified as "foodies" and do not hesitate to go to expensive restaurants wherever we go. We had the tasting menu with wine. The wines were good but not spectacular. The sommelier repeated the same little text at a table next to us but that is not important. The service was great. The food however was not of... more

I too, like a couple other reviewers, am a little surprised at how highly this restaurant is rated, both here and on Zagats, where I write dozens of reviews. First of all, let me say that I judge restaurants based on their relative prices. By that token, La Salsa's burritos for $5 are amazing. Red Lobster shrimp dishes for $15... more

I took my bf here for his birthday and he was truly swept off his feet. The people are very polite! The view is spectacular honestly. I made reservations for an hour before sunset that way we could eat and then watch the sunset, the restaurant is completely glass so that you can see the view of the ocean and... more

The Montage is a hotel on a spectacular piece of real estate above the beaches and rocks in Laguna and their high-end restaurant is right on the bluff overlooking this view. The place is both luxurious and casual, allowing you to eat inside, or outside, or inside with the French doors open. The restaurant is beautiful, the staff is well... more

Studio is alright, but if your nose isn't high enough to go, then hit the Loft in the same resort. THE BEST cheese bar I have ever seen, unbelievable wine selection and amazing drinks...right on the water. My home away from home. more
