Reviews
I ordered the vegan red Thai curry with tofu, which was comforting and full of rich flavor. I also tried the garlic fried rice with a few modifications to make it vegan, and it turned out to be a standout. The dish was fragrant, satisfying, and prepared exactly as requested.
The atmosphere was great; ehether you choose to sit inside or enjoy the outdoor space, the setting feels inviting, stylish, and relaxed. It works just as well for a casual meal as it does for a more polished night out.
Service was courteous and friendly throughout the visit. The staff was attentive without being intrusive, and they handled menu questions and modifications with ease. The drinks were also pretty good, adding to the overall experience.
Rosewood Social offers a refined yet comfortable dining experience, with quality food, a welcoming atmosphere, and service that makes you want to return.
The Prime steak skewers were outstanding, lobster spring rolls and adobo pork ribs were insanely delicious, wagyu dumplings were truly to die for and the bang bang and honey walnut shrimp were absolutely massive and a total crowd favorite.
Our guests were blown away and we couldn’t have asked for a better setting. The food and service were so impressive that we can’t wait to come back for dinner. No question we’ll be hosting our next event here, too.
11/10… Highly recommend Rosewood Social!
We first heard about this place from our neighbor, and after all the rave reviews, we just had to see what the buzz was about. Honestly, I’m so glad we decided to try it! Every single dish we ordered was just outstanding—delicious flavors and beautifully presented.
The staff made us feel so welcome, and the service was attentive and friendly from start to finish.
We can’t wait to come back and try even more from their menu!

Didn’t do much with the opening course as the items selected contained shellfish, but they looked very well prepared and smelled good. Also a Spring Roll was on offer, nice presentation, but with the rest of the shellfish heavy starters, decided to pass as wasn’t sure on their contents.
Main course:
Caesar Salad – Yum. Just the right amount of dressing tossed on the lettuce, a great start to the plate. Went back for seconds.
Steamed Greens – Was the pairing to the Sea Bass which I skipped, but the flavor as a standalone had a nice garlic flavor and properly steamed texture.
Coconut Curry – Excellent flavor with not too much heat, just a mild spice profile. Good on its own, recommend pairing with the Fried Rice to complete the flavor profile and really make it yum.
Short Rib – Tender, tasty, and the item I most craved. The sauce really adds to the savoryness of the dish. As I was leaving gave a Short Rib = to the Chef.

Exceptional staff attended to all guests very promptly and even took the time to assure me there would be something non-seafood on the buffet line after the starters.
[will i go back?]
Definitely will be bringing family back and getting some photos to share for a follow-up review.
Such a great find on quick google search! My first time in San Juan Capistrano
Chef & Owner Patrick Sarte was so kind and stopped by and took our photos! We chatted a bit and I wanted to hear his story in creation of this restaurant! I sang him Praises for the Prefection in the Dishes. He’s Filipino so bringing Asian Twist to Seafood & Meat All the dishes we got were DELICIOUS! Such an amazing surprise with the Freshness & Quality seafood & Perfect Combination of Flavors
Patrick’s first restaurant and only 1.5 years old in the heart of San Juan Capristrano. All the stars aligned with the perfect location with outdoor patio & fireplace/couches and indoor on the main street. He only lives 7 minutes away, and his wife’s family has history in this town where her grandfather was a judge ⚖️ So Serendipity

First off, the restaurant itself is stunning. I’m such a big fan of the indoor-outdoor dining on the second floor, overlooking the actual mission!
The chefs do such a great job at incorporating Asian elements into these beautiful dishes.
Some of my favorites are the Honey walnut shrimp with GIGANTIC prawns and Chilean sea bass with Thai chili dipping sauce.
The desserts exceeded ALL my expectations. I fell in love with their fresh Banana fritters, and really enjoyed trying their take on a Croissant waffle.
I would definitely recommend this unique restaurant, perfect for date night or if you wanted to try something new.
Thanks for reading! ^-^
