24oz Double R Ranch Bone-In Ribeye Steak
A Laguna Beach treasure worthy of a detour!! Beach restaurants rarely have this combined charm and well crafted cuisine. Whether you're in the cozy bar for a Baja Hot Dog and well crafted cocktails; sitting on the ocean facing patio for a leisurely brunch or picking up fun fixings for a impromptu picnic from The Pantry next store: the experience will linger with you long after. This is my go to spot for my out of town guests, romantic evenings with my wife and "reward" ricotta pancakes for my 8 year old's good behavior. I hesitate to write this because I love that it still seems like a bit of a secret for us locals!

American Wagyu Beef Burger
So. DAMN. good.
Farmer Market Vegetables & Organic Italian Farro
Sapphire, you are a gem! So glad we read about you. Tonight's experience, another perfect meal. Our server, Sage, suggested adding blackened salmon to the Farmer Market Vegetables & Organic Italian Farro. Such a great idea. The dish alone is delicious. The aged balsamic drizzled on top of the roasted vegetables made each bite scrumptious. Adding the blackened salmon mixed with the aged balsamic, ohhh the flavors. Can't find the words to describe it. Just exquisite...perfection!
Lemon Verbena Poached Faroe Island Salmon
The dish soared to the number one spot of my favorite salmon dinners! The glaze was pure perfection!! UH-MAZING and came together perfectly to bring you some mind-blowing flavor. I just couldn't seem to get enough of this delicious salmon dish!!
10oz Pacific Northwest Filet Mignon
Delicious melding of flavors and FABULOUS service. The chefs at Sapphire are definitely on their game, and both the waitstaff and kitchen accommodated a special request without missing a beat. This is a new favorite in town.
24oz Double R Ranch Bone-In Ribeye Steak
The most delicious rib eye Ive had in years. The service was beyond phenomenal. The environment is very welcoming. I plan to go back for my Moms 80th birthday this weekend with our entire family. Highly recommended.
Farmer Market Vegetables & Organic Italian Farro
Perfect compliment to another day in paradise! Food, drink and staff exceptional. Best place to experience Laguna Beach pre & post COVID - clean, contentiousness and courteous..
American Wagyu Beef Burger
The burger is out of this world! I was conflicted between multiple items on the menu but already heard great things from friends who frequent Sapphire. I'd highly recommend the entree with an Uno Mas cocktail for a phenomenal Laguna Beach evening.
American Wagyu Beef Burger
Very tasty!! I'll order again...
Steamed Manilla Clams, Mexican White Prawns & P.E.I. Mussels
Super unique take to a seafood fan favorite. That saffron and chorizo combo, mixed with all the fresh seafood essence catches you the second the plate hits the table. Lovely service at a great and safe feeling atmosphere. Will be taking advantage of their take out options the next few weeks for sure.
24oz Double R Ranch Bone-In Ribeye Steak
Sumptuous dining anytime near the beautiful vistas of Laguna. Shaded outdoor seating with plenty of atmosphere & champagne to go around! Combine that with attentive & knowledgeable service- you have the perfect place to enjoy mezzo to desert- you may not want to leave! Bon apétit!
Farmer Market Vegetables & Organic Italian Farro
My husband had an amazing vegetable entree for dinner. So perfectly cooked and a multitude of different vegetables. He is not vegetarian but just wants to eat healthy. It included farro which was delicious. I had the special cheeseburger and fries. Done perfectly and we shared the delicious fries. The waiter was so attentive and very thoughtful. You can tell when staff is treated well because they cheerfully do their job. It was a lovely evening. We will definitely return soon!
24oz Double R Ranch Bone-In Ribeye Steak
Ordered family style for myself, wife and two teen boys. Started with Brussels/cauliflower/pork belly, clams and mussels, beets/crab. Favorite was the Brussels. How can you go wrong with pork belly. Entree was ribeye and halibut. Lots of yummy veggies with both dishes. Ribeye nice and juicy, halibut clean and flavorful. Dessert was the ice cream sandwich and crema brûlée. Kids ate it all. Great meal. Responsible Covid protocol. Awesome outdoor ambiance. Will be back soon.
Sapphire Salad
Great starter salad that is generously portioned for two to share. Very fresh with flavors of summer.
House Made Duck Meatballs
This is seriously a candidate for "best dish of the year." The duck meatballs were tender and flavorful, the house-made pasta was perfection and all flavors were so balanced and in harmony. Can't wait to try it again...
House Made Duck Meatballs
LOVE this dish! I usually get the pork schnitzel, which is fabulous, but this is also delicious! I also had the beet salad with crab, which is not only beautiful to look at, but equality tasty! I can't wait to come back to try more dishes! I also feel safe dining there with your staff wearing masks and the tables spaced. I'll be back SOON!
Breakfast Burrito & Potato Onion Hash
This burrito is amazing. A lot of breakfast burritos end up being pretty average but Sapphire nailed it with this one. Would definitely recommend this.
Herb Grilled Jidori Chicken Sandwich
Exquisitely delicious. The roll was fresh, the chicken incredibly flavorful enhanced by the tasty coleslaw!
Jumbo Lump Crab & Heirloom Beets
this is the second time I've had this salad- absolutely delicious and perfect for the hotter weather. Enjoy with a crisp white!
Breakfast Burrito
BOOYAH! A great breakfast burrito at a great price! Covid compliance, check. Delicious food, check. Get 'EM while they're HOT. Seriously, this place was great. We were visiting from LA and needed a good breakfast burrito and this place hit the spot.
American Wagyu Beef Burger
Best burger in Laguna! The young ladies behind the counter gave excellent customer service!
American Wagyu Beef Burger
¡Geeze Lou-fluffin' WEEZE! That wagyu beef hamburger was indescribable; but here's a start: I could not put it down once I started. I must learn the secret sauce or I will go "evil plankton" on y'all and not rest until I find out what ingredients shaped such a masterpiece of "icing on the burger." My heart belonged to a certain Southern California-born burger but they are yesterday's news and I cannot remember their name. "Dear old love, I've met someone new. You were good to me, but I've found better. The Spanish cheddar cheese swept me onto my knees, ready to propose under Barcelona palm trees, chillin' with that challah bun was a big bite of fun." ...that macaroni and cheese skillet was wicked too. (¡Chomp chomp chomp!)
Steamed Manilla Clams, Mexican White Prawns & P.E.I. Mussels
Sapphire, a delightful dining experience! So much to choose from for dinner. One of our dishes on their cool, light breezy, outside patio was Steamed Manilla Clams, Mexican White Prawns & P.E.I. Mussels . Accompanied by crispy bread, the roasted tomato saffron broth with pearl coucous couscous was so tasty. Just delightful. Made me want to come back for another meal! Reservations made for Tuesday. Can't wait! Thank you Conner for the great service! Aaron you are getting top notch training. Sage see you Tuesday!
24oz Double R Ranch Bone-In Ribeye Steak
cooked to perfection tasty not salty the juices were fantastic
Sapphire Salad
I had the salad with the filet added and it was amazing! And the service is excellent. A true gem of a place.
Meyer Lemon Crème Fraiche Waffles
Two of us decided brunch was a great option because it was so hot outside. Even though it said 94 it was very pleasant in the patio. We split the waffles which were incredible. Not too lemony or sweet...just right. It was like having dessert first! Then we split the pork belly eggs Benedict which was superb. The sauce was light and the rosemary focaccia bread was a flavor surprise. The staff was very friendly and helpful. After finishing we both said "can we do this again next Sunday!"
Baked Skillet of Mac & Cheese
THIS WAS SOOOOO GOOOOD IN MY BELLYYYY
Cast Iron Roasted Brussels Sprouts, Romanesco Cauliflower and Kurobuta Pork Belly
The food was to die for, this dish explodes with flavors! I came to Laguna beach for the day from LA and bar none this place is the place to eat at in Laguna ! And Marisela the waitress was the best super nice and professional!!
House Made Duck Meatballs
The duck meatballs were delicious!
Wild Caught Alaskan Halibut
Absolute perfection! Fresh, perfectly prepared and delicious assortment of vegetables.
Smashed Avocado Toast
I came and sat outside with my dog and enjoyed your delicious and healthy avocado toast breakfast. The tables are at least 6 feet apart which made me feel more comfortable. It was an enjoyable experience in very trying times.
Lemon Verbena Poached Faroe Island Salmon
This is one of the best salmon dishes I have ever had. It was delicious! Highly recommend!
Wild Caught Alaskan Halibut
I think there are different versions of this at their other restaurants and once you try it, it's clear why it's a signature dish. The halibut was super fresh and cooked perfectly. All the different vegetables are cooked individually so everything is on point. Love the fingerling potatoes. So pretty with the variety of colors and textures. A must for anyone who enjoys fin fish entrees...
Chilled Creamy Bellwether Farms Fromage Blanc Dip
This is a perfect shared appetizer to have while enjoying cocktails or a glass of wine and a view of the Pacific. Tangy but smooth and well complemented by the garnishness and a touch of richness from the evoo. Great rustic bread that was nicely toasted. Highly recommend.
American Wagyu Beef Burger
Best burger ever. Enough French fries to share and they are real cut and fried to order yum. House salad is a great addition
American Wagyu Beef Burger
Amazing! Thank you for exceeding all expectations.
24oz Double R Ranch Bone-In Ribeye Steak
My husband orders a Ribeye wherever her goes whether it be a steakhouse, Seafood restaurant or Asian fusion. He loves Ribeye to say the least, and he just told our waitress, Christina, who is new to Sapphire and phenomenal by the way, that it was the best Ribeye he's ever ordered! Good job Sapphire! Love the new ownership!!!
Crispy Duroc Pork Schnitzel With Maitake Mushrooms
Love this dish! Authentic German Pork Schnitzel with a twist. Crispy Schnitzel with savory spaetzle and a hint of sweetness with the apple & carrots.
Wild Caught Alaskan Halibut
I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS!!! IT WAS WONDERFUL!!! I GO HERE EVERY CHANCE I GET!!!!! I BRING MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS!!! BEST FOOD EVER!!!
