Studio at Montage Laguna Beach
With a panoramic oceanfront location and modern French cuisine with California influences, Studio is the portrait of beachside indulgence. A refined and inventive menu reflects masterful attention to detail accented with an elegant, creative touch. Ocean breezes, panoramic views and lush landscapes create a refreshing sense of place at the water’s edge and a fitting backdrop for the shared enjoyment of fine food and wine. Menus include à la carte selections of starters, entrées, cheeses and desserts; and a six-course seasonal prix-fixe Chef’s Tasting Menu. The wine list includes more than 2,200 wine labels, an extensive menu of wines-by-the-glass and suggested wine pairings for each dish. Small plates are also offered at the communal table and the turn-of-the-century bar.

"We were really looking forward to dinner at Studio, and were VERY disappointed. While the view and service was outstanding, quite frankly we could have had a drink on the patio to enjoy those. T food was average at best and we were overcharged for our already expensive wine and the coup des gras for a disappointing evening was having to pay for valet parking even though we had already dropped $500 for dinner! When we go back we will go for lunch or drinks, because it is a lovely property and the view is specular."

"Had high expectations but this was probably the most impressive dinning experience I have ever had. The food was exceptional and the service even better. Everyone was warm & friendly, and each course was delivered with perfect timing in addition to the normal things you would expect at 4/5 star. At the end of the meal, our waiter Joe asked about evening and once we shared we were there celebrating our engagement, he offered after dinner liqueur, dessert, and a tour of the kitchen where we met and talked to the head chef Craig Strong, and as we were leaving, he brought us a loaf of banana chocolate chip bread with brown sugar crust as "something for the morning complements of Studio". All because he "wanted to make our night more special"."

"the total dining experience was outstanding except for a couple of minor bumps in the service. Although the style of service is meant to be top level, when a server splashes water on the table while refilling glasses or a bread server drops a roll on the floor while offering them to you as well as a waitress tripping over your table leg. You have to think the training of staff leaves much to be desired.
The food and presentation was outstanding. Enjoyed meeting the chef who visited after the meal. If they could only find trained staff to equal the food and decor they would rival any Michelin starred spot in the US.
I recommend the restaurant for certain just be prepared for a few glithces along the way."

"We splurged with the tasting menu paired with wine. It was a special celebration, so this very expensive experience will not be a routine event.
However, the food variety, wine matching, quality and quantity was perfect. The service, attention to detail and overall experience made this event one of the best we had. Highly recomend it! Be proper ad to pay the price."

"Stunning view, impeccable service, extensive wine list. Beautiful location at the Montage in Laguna Beach.
We all know quality is not cheap. That being said, Dinner for our family of five exceeded $700. A $58. entree does not include soup or salad- expect to pay an additional $28. per. I appreciate fine dining, but found myself thinking my daughter would rather be spending the money at nearby South Coast Plaza, than on a few bites of Tenderloin-delicious as it was.
For a special occasion, the quiet ambiance and superb service would most likely be worth the investment."

"This was our 2nd time to the Studio, and the 2nd time to have the Chef's Tasting menu, paired with wines. The first time we went we had an absolutely outstanding meal. All the preparations were complete with very complementary flavors. However, this time, we were disappointed. The flavor and textures just didn't seem to go together well, and the preparations were comparatively generic. For example, the tuna tartare, paired with spaghetti squash, all blended together into a bit of a mush. Disappointing. We enjoy everything else about this restaurant. We were just disappointed that for the price (expensive), we would get much more."

And I cannot say enough about everything! from beginning to end, it was beautiful, delicious and service delightful. My late father always said "every once in a while you have to go first class", and thanks to the Montage we did again for my mother! Thank you..."

"TRANSCENDENT dining experience. Every single detail was perfect. This is not a restaurant, this is a work of art. The service is attentive, unobtrusive, friendly, just perfect. The tasting menu is delightful from start to finish. The sommeliers have created a wine pairing that bestows the exact right interplay between each course and the wine.
Troy Smith, one of the 3 brilliant sommeliers, has done what I thought was impossible- to present both a Chardonnay and a Malbec that puts all of my pre-conceived biases to rest.
The price is very reasonable considering the incredible quality and high-cost ingredients. Once in a lifetime dining experience- take someone you love here."

"My wife and I had a marvelous Saturday evening at Studio. It was an aniversary of sorts for us and we were looking for a special time as we are fine dining enthusiasts. We were seated promptly at a nice romantic corner table with the Pacific in the background. We chose to order off the ala carte menu, but noted the tasting looked superb (and a good deal) given the prices of the menu selections. Each course was superb, the flavors were balanced and highly nuanced. The word that came to mind was seductive, no flavor jumped out at us aggressively, it just got better and better as we made our way through the meal. We finished with a really tasty cheese course paired with a 40 year old tawny. Just wow!"

"We had an outstanding meal at the Studio at Montage Laguna Beach.
Since the check was at the very top of my food budget, this is not someplace I could eat on a regular basis.
However for special occasions, the Studio cannot be beat.
Our aniversary meal there was memorable!"

"Superb experience from the moment we walked into the lovely restaurant.
My only wish is that it could be less expensive...."

"Service was fantastic. Both my fish and my husbands fish were overcooked, mine almost inedible BUT the server asked and took mine off the bill. Would have preferred for it to have been cooked right so I could eat it and pay for it."

"We went for a belated valentines dinner and sat outside on the heated patio. What an amazing view and experience! This is not a cheap meal, by any means. The total for our meal for two (including alcohol and tip) was $350. That being said its a once a year experience. The silence alone (no screaming kids) was worth the price. Throw in the great food and stunning views and its a no brainer. Will definitely return."

"Best dining experience in my food adventures! My fiance and I were here for valentine's day dinner. We ordered off the regular menu and the special vday menu. Everything we ordered was amazing! The potatoe pillow melted in your mouth! And the sphere chocolate dessert was def the best way to end dinner! It was an unforgettable experience!"

"First let me say the view was amazing. This would be a great place to eat at sunset; it is highly romantic. The service was for the most part prompt and highly courteous, though our actual waiter was a bit cold. Food had outstanding presentation, but I felt that the flavor was a bit subtle for my taste, though the quality of the ingredients was high (my boyfriend agreed). As far as value of meal goes, this is clearly not why you are dining at the studio; it's more of an inclusive experience. I would not recommend Studio to foodies, but I would strongly recommend it to couples as part of a romantic getaway, or anyone looking to wine and dine in grand fashion."

"The most amazing food and wine list imaginable which is why it is so hard not to rate this restaurant higher. The service was so frustrating and slow. Don't get me wrong, we enjoy a nice slow dinner and never want to feel rushed when spending this kind of money, but you also should not have to wait for long to get your waiters attention. Disappointing."
