I've been eating at the harbor house for 40 years. When I was a teenager it was a frequent stop for breakfast after surfing at san onofre or trestles. Staying in san Clemente for valentines day so we hit up harbor house for breakfast for nostalgia's sake before taking a little cruise on my boat which has its' slip in Dana Point harbor. Breakfast at the harbor house is always solid in my experience. French toast combo is my go to. Self seating When you walk in. Pick A booth, table, or at the bar. Your server will come to you, take your order, and bring your food and drinks to the table.
service is pretty good. We stacked a pickle and it didnt fall. Server is really nice. Coffee was good.
We've had many meals here. The ambience is so much fun there is memorabilia posters on every wall and old fashion photography. Lots of Hollywood posters. My husband and I went for an early dinner and it was delicious. Super fantastic crunchy french fries. So nice to be served by Susana. She is energetic, knowledgeable and very hospitable. This is a fun place to eat.
