“608 Dahlia, the renowned garden-to-table dining destination nestled within the picturesque Sherman Library and Gardens in Corona del Mar, has launched their seasonal fall menu. Crafted by Executive Chef and Owner Jessica Roy, the new menu showcases the peak-of-season ingredients, celebrating the vibrant flavors and colors of Southern California. Chef Roy, a culinary visionary and winner of multiple national TV cooking competitions, continues to elevate the dining experience at 608 Dahlia with her commitment to fresh, locally sourced ingredients.” Chef Jessica takes a break from her bustling kitchen to join us.

“Since its inception, 608 Dahlia has become both an everyday local favorite and a beloved special occasion restaurant for large and small celebrations. With its custom florals and warm hospitality, the boutique garden restaurant continues to impress as one of Orange County’s most sought-after dining destinations. To complement its new seasonal menu, the restaurant has transformed into a harvest wonderland for fall. The indoor-outdoor eatery offers guests plush plaid blankets and tables topped with heirloom pumpkins, allowing guests to cozy up for fall.”

“A focal point of the restaurant is its garden-facing bar, which boasts a display of seasonal décor and floral arrangements. The cocktail program at 608 Dahlia mirrors the ethos of the kitchen, transforming seasonal ingredients and fresh juices into beautifully handcrafted Soju-based cocktails like the Strawberry Basil Margarita and tropical-inspired Bird of Paradise. Non-alcoholic options turn florals, herbs, and fruits into enchanting elixirs.”

“The boutique garden restaurant is proud to be a Level One Certified Green Restaurant by the Green Restaurant Association, reflecting Chef Roy’s personal dedication to sustainability and eco-conscious practices. The restaurant continues to support local purveyors and prioritize small, eco-friendly businesses in sourcing the finest ingredients.”
