I couldn’t be more pleased with our experience at this restaurant. Upon arriving, it was not hassle with seating. We sat outside. Pets are allowed on the outside. Beautiful boat area where you can watch while you eat. The guest within themselves were friendly! The server greeted us, we ordered morning drinks. Then breakfast! While waiting the owner came out talking to everyone. Seems like a norm, the other guest knew him. He asked us where we was from, he was thrilled to find out we were from TN. We discussed the area and he gave my husband inputs on the areas that surround us while visiting this area. When our food arrived, which was in no time, he ceased the convo and let us eat! The pets were even given water bowls. However the food was very good. I got the meaty omelet with short stacks. My husband got French toast. Our waiter checked in on us often. The potatoes were seasoned, pancakes were fluffy and good. If you like omelets it was very meaty. Thank you Mr.Steve and our waiter thanks for an awesome experience. Please go visit if you’re in town for vacation.

We really loved this little spot by the water. Very chill atmosphere with a bar and grill feel, but some pretty good fresh choices as well. The open air seating was great on a sunny day.I had the tuna avocado sandwich and it was fantastic and exactly the fresh bite I needed when paired with the coleslaw. There were plenty of options for the kid, who surprisingly ate all their food.The service from Nancy and AJ was top notch. Any small issues that we did run into were immediately resolved perfectly. Overall, we loved this place and we would return in a heartbeat next time we are in Dana Point.

It was my fav place for breakfast. Very quaint and unknown. Then it burned down and was rebuilt to accommodate the new crowd. I guess it’s still ok. But it can never be “better”. Somethings. SOMEthings aught to linger a little longer, that’s all.

Horrible food, discriminatory stafffood was extremely dry and bland. we got 2 burritos and the ahi sandwich. the chicken in the burrito was overcooked and the burrito was mostly sour cream with an extremely soggy toritlla that disintegrated when we picked it up so we had to eat it with a fork. the ahi in the sandwhich had no flavor whatsoever, was completely overcooked and i couldnt chew it for the life of me.on top of all the horrible food the service was TERRIBLE and our waiter (male, blond, late 30s) spent the first 15 minutes of our meal constantly bugging us to leave. the restaurant was only 1/3 full and there was no need to rush us as there were several open tables and no one waiting in line. after we told him we needed some more time to finish our food (we had only sat down for about 15 mins), he left and was absent for the rest of the time and we spent another 30 minutes trying to see where he was to pay the check.there were a few other families who we almost done with their meals by the time we arrived and they were not rushed at all. we suspect that this was racially motivated because the other families there were all white and being treated very kindly and respectfully and were not rushed. we were the only asian people and people of color in the whole restaurant, which i didnt notice at first until we got glares and looks. they were treating the other white families extremely differently from us and a few of the waitstaff even gave us distasteful looks when first greeting us. I would like to add that we were not disrespectful, we were just quietly enjoying our meal with some small talk but felt very uncomfortable.

🍳Breakfast by the Beach🏖Came here this morning with friends.We had party of 18We seated in a timely manner. Due to the fact we called ahead.Food was good and portions were just right.Nice thing they accomadated all of us and allowed us to pay 💸 our bill separately with a large group.Give Proud Marys opportunity to earn your business you wont be disappointed. Best thing the restaurant is right on the water.

Finally made it to Proud Mary’s for some breakfast. Good food and ambiance with a nice view of the harbor. The chairs sat a little low to the table which could be a nuisance if you’re short. I had the eggs Benedict which was very satisfying. They were a little heavy with the hollandaise sauce, but it didn’t take too much away from the dish. Very good service and kept my coffee full.

I have since been back twice and the service and food was as amazing as always. This is honestly a gem of Dana Point.I’d like to publicly apologize to the business and the server. There was an extreme circumstance outside of the interaction that I should have not taken out on either. Completely my horrible fault and wrong of me. This business and staff is always the best.

Came here with friends for a Sunday brunch and had a great time. Bloody Marys were great and the food was delicious. Who would enjoy a meal on the harbor? Locals seemed nice and the staff was very helpful and patient. Ill be coming here again.
