“ Love going for happy hour at Domenicos; great food and nice people................................................... ”

“ I liked this very friendly staffed Italian restaurant in Mission Viejo. We came here on a short notice Saturday night and we were lucky enough to be seated. We ordered their Calamari and it was fresh and marinara sauce. We also ordered their cheesy Mozzarella logs. Our main entree was their Potato Gnocchi, this was my favorite dish. I will definitely came here again. ”

“ Great service and a nice patio. I had the shrimp scampi which was unique. I recommend getting the pasta as a side vs the cauliflower rice that is stated on the menu. ”

“ The food was incredible! Came for the 3 course Thanksgiving dinner and had a delicious prime rib. I think it was a special for their Thanksgiving menu but if it was permanently on the menu I would come back in a heartbeat! The tiramisu we had for dessert was hands down the best we've ever had. Only note was that they forgot the croutons on 3 of the 4 salads and when we asked for croutons they only gave us enough for one person so 3 of us had to divide it up but it wasn't a big deal. We dinned in the evening but I'm sure the view of the lake is gorgeous during the daytime. Definitely recommend giving this place a try. ”

“ First time visitors, but we'd wanted to try it for a while, and we had a great opportunity to do so. Fairly quiet night, quickly sat inside (was cool outside and my wife is always cold), wound up moving again away from the patio door. Waiter was extremely accommodating, happy for us to move, quickly took our order but apologized that he was the only server that night. No apology really necessary, especially since he was immediately available and went out of his way to stay on top of our table needs! Great dinners - spaghetti and meatballs, chicken parm, a salad, a couple glasses of wine and desert. Everything was fast, perfect, and tasted great! We have a few fav Italian stops, but this one just made that list! We are looking forward to heading back, and trying some other tempting menu items! Hopefully on a night where we can enjoy the outside view, since it's a great location. ”

“ Cute little restaurant on the lake! High quality and delicious meals! We loved both the chicken piccata & the braised short ribs! Service was as good as expected for a high end dinner (though we were part of a private event)! 100% coming back! ”

“ We had a great experience here. Excellent service and great food. The pizza and pasta was perfect. Salad was nice and fresh. Dessert was a hit. ”

“ Came for an early dinner on the weekend, highly recommend making a reservation as it gets packed fairly quickly. Was able to get a seat out in a patio with a lake view and it was perfect for our date night. We ordered: Parmesan fries - 5/5, i think these were double fried? but great crispy exterior and soft interior. Also a great amount of parmesan. Lobster spaghetti - 4/5, would get again to treat myself. It was $48 and I felt it was worth it. A good amount of lobster and the flavor of the spaghetti was fantastic, very herby. I did feel though that the portion overall was a bit on the small side, left me wanting more. However, it wasn't so little that you'd go hungry. Gnocchi with basil cream sauce and chicken 3.5/5 this is biased as i'm not a fan on gnocchi in general, but the sauce was fantastic. I was dipping the focaccia bread in it all night! Their service was also very on point! We were check in on multiple times, but not so often that it became annoying, it was the perfect balance. Def recommend for a date night especially if you can catch the sunset out on the patio! (bring a jacket) ”
