Crafted with passion, served with love

A Steakhouse on the Southern California Coast

Bourbon Steak sits within the Monarch Beach Resort in Dana Point, bringing the celebrated Michael Mina steakhouse concept to Orange County. The setting alone sets a tone — a luxury coastal resort perched above the Pacific, where the expectations for the table match the surroundings.

Wine Spectator Recognized

The restaurant earned Wine Spectator's Best of Award of Excellence in 2023, a distinction that speaks directly to the depth and curation of its cellar. For a steakhouse, wine is not an afterthought — it is a core part of the experience, and that recognition confirms Bourbon Steak Orange County takes that seriously.

The Steakhouse Experience

As a steakhouse, Bourbon Steak draws guests looking for something more considered than a standard chophouse. The Monarch Beach Resort location gives the restaurant a polished, resort-scale atmosphere suited to both celebratory dinners and unhurried evenings. The combination of a serious wine program and a steakhouse kitchen built around quality makes it one of the more compelling dinner destinations along this stretch of the Southern California coast.
