Ellie's Table is a solid 10 out of 10! I visited for the first time during lunch and tried their combo with a palm sandwich and two salads. I wasn't expecting much, as a turkey sandwich can only be so exciting, but found it to be surprisingly fresh and flavorful. You will be asked if you'd like lettuce and tomato on it. You can add get your own condiments (e.g. mayo, yellow mustard, Dijon mustard, hot sauce) from their self-service counter after. The pasta salad was very good, as was the fruit salad. I was very pleased and impressed by the portion size. Some restaurants give you like 3-5 pieces of fruit and consider it a side, but Ellie's served it in a coffee mug. The prices were great also. I went back for an iced Honey Lavender Latte and chocolate chip cookie. Worth it! The cookie was crisp on the outside, soft on the inside, and full of chocolate. Their other desserts (croissants, fruit tart, etc) also looked amazing. I loved the variety of their menu, which includes all-day breakfast and lunch options, and can't wait to come back to try other items. The Egan House was very cute and they had a great patio for eating outside. Service was attentive and friendly! The only downside was parking, as they have a tiny lot that will likely be full, so nearby street parking is your best bet. Will definitely return and...

Read moreEllie's Table at The Egan House is a gem in the heart of historic downtown San Juan Capistrano. We love the great selection of ready-to-eat items, sweets, and sandwiches. On our most recent visit, we got an inside table and enjoyed the warm and inviting atmosphere. The servers are nice, and the service is excellent, both inside and out.
The food is fantastic, consistently delicious with each visit. The lattes are made perfectly, adding to the delightful experience. Ellie's Table is named after the proprietor's grandmother, Ellie, a homemaker and cook extraordinaire. The menu features her recipes, offering comforting home-cooked dishes.
This trip we tried the Country Fried Biscuits & Gravy and Prosciutto Toast, and they were both absolutely delicious. We also love their chilaquiles and shrimp tacos, which are some of our favorites.
This intimate restaurant is a wonderful place to enjoy a casual meal with friends or family. The vibe is great, and the staff is attentive and friendly. Ellie's Table is the perfect spot for a casual and...
