"We celebrated a birthday in Ristorante Rumari and everyone was so happy with the food and the ambience. The staff was so about it, and the whole food was from this world! We especially enjoyed the warm, homemade Focaccia bread with olive oil and our shrimp appetizers. (They did not hesitate to bring us a second round of bread) The entrees we ordered were mostly seafood oriented, but they also have many pasta choices. The birthday boy enjoyed their free dessert, and we finished the evening Italian style with some drinks after dinner, and a few of us tried caffè corretto spiked with alcohol. We called a Uber and went to the village where we had parked earlier in the evening. It's just a mile south of the village. There's a free trolley, I have to go... but go to Dana Point. Ristorante Rumari never disappoints, and I highly recommend it for big parties, and for a romantic dinner. If they say they are full, ask for the owner, he always takes place if possible, and you can hang at the bar until your table is ready, or on the terrace. Love, LOVE, LOVE, RISTORANTE RUMARI!!!"
