Walk Ins are Welcome but Reservations are Highly Recommended
Our Food Philosophy
We pride ourselves in creating a menu that is seasonally driven using the best ingredients available. We partner with Manaserro Farms, scour local farmer markets, and purchase high quality produce and specialty ingredients from our trusted purveyors.
Located within the Sherman Library and Gardens, farm-to-table and garden-to-table take on an entirely fresh perspective. Our restaurant is located within 2.2 acres of beauty and bounty- we pick fresh herbs and edible flowers straight from the Gardens, or Chef Jessica's backyard organic garden, to adorn our plates.
We are inspired daily by our beautiful surroundings, and we truly enjoy sharing our passion with each and every one of our guests.
608 Dahlia Restaurant
Our Restaurant provides a unique garden-side dining experience in the heart of Corona Del Mar and is open to the public Wednesdays-Sundays with seating 11am-2pm. Walk-ins are always welcome, but reservations are encouraged.
Quality of our ingredients is paramount to our lunch menus, which can change seasonally to highlight the freshest produce available. Our relationships with local food producers ensure that we can be involved with the creation of your meal from its very beginnings.
Our restaurant can accommodate large groups and special luncheons to help with your milestone celebrations such as baby showers, bridal showers, and birthdays.
