"My dining experience at Wood Ranch in Dana Point, CA, was nothing short of phenomenal. Having previously enjoyed the food at their Irvine location, my expectations were high, and I'm delighted to report that WR Kitchen Dana Point met and exceeded those expectations. With a mouthwatering menu, impeccable service, and the added bonus of no wait time, it was a 5 star experience all around.We were thrilled to discover that the menu at the Dana Point location was the same as the one we love at the Irvine location. Eager to dive into the delicious offerings, we ordered the barbacoa street tacos, hot wings, and Shishido peppers. Each dish was prepared to perfection, with a beautiful balance of flavors that left us craving more.One thing to note about the barbacoa street tacos is that they pack a spicy punch. They were even spicier than the hot wings, which may be something to consider if you're not able to handle much heat. My girlfriend had a bit of a hard time with the tacos, but as someone who loves spice, I thoroughly enjoyed them. The hot wings had just the right amount of heat to satisfy our taste buds, while the Shishido peppers were a delightful surprise a unique and tasty appetizer that we will undoubtedly order again on future visits. To complement our meal, we enjoyed a refreshing margarita and a smooth glass of red wine, both of which were expertly crafted.What truly set our experience at Wood Ranch Kitchen in Dana Point apart was the stellar service. The staff was attentive, friendly, and efficient, ensuring that our dining experience was seamless from start to finish. It was a refreshing change of pace from the often crowded and bustling Irvine location, which had an hour and a half wait on the same evening.In summary, our visit to Wood Ranch's Dana Point restaurant was an exceptional dining experience that we won't soon forget. With a delicious menu reminiscent of the Irvine location, outstanding service, and the added bonus of no wait time, we couldn't have asked for a better night out. Just be mindful of the spice level in the barbacoa street tacos if you're sensitive to heat. We will undoubtedly return to Wood Ranch and wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone seeking a top notch dining experience in the area. Five stars, without a doubt!"
