San Juan Capistrano lunch recommendations?

I've done a few searches but can't find any current recommendations. Looking for something moderate but tasty. All suggestions welcome!

You're talkin' my home town here!

Ramos House is lovely and special, but can be a little pricey. (Walk across the train tracks to Los Rios Street, always a lovely spot for a walk.)

The Cedar Creek has dependably good American and a very nice patio. Directly across the street from the Mission.

A great little place for an excellent sandwich is Aldo's Italian restaurant. It's off Del Obispo in the Marshall shopping Ctr.(inexpensive)

For wonderful Mexican -- El Maguey, some of the best in OC, good prices, located on Camino Capistrano, kitty corner to the Mission Church.

For a good hamburger, go to Ruby's, also on Camino Capistrano near the Mission (upstairs)

The Beach House in Dana Point, just down the road is on the water and has a very good and extensive menu, particularly seafood.

I haven't eaten at The Beach House in Dana Point but have been to their other two locations, Cardiff (close to San Diego) and Laguna Beach. In fact, we had their brunch a few weeks ago after my DD's college graduation at UC Irvine. There was 12 of us so we had a variety of items from the menu and everyone enjoyed their meal. Prices were reasonable and I think the Dana Point location has a view of the harbor.

I always enjoy the Cedar Creek for lunch when I visit CA. The patio is very nice as frankie said. I vote for Cedar Creek
