Welcome Back Wilhelm!
03.08.13
Longtime renowned restaurateur David Wilhelm will be returning to Orange County’s restaurant scene this summer with the opening of Jimmy's Famous American Tavern in Dana Point.
This will be David Wilhelm’s first restaurant to open in Orange County since his restaurant empire, Culinary Adventures split up in 2009. (Locals will remember fondly his Savannah's, Chat Noir, French 75, and many more successful restaurants he founded.)
Jimmy’s Famous American Tavern’s flagship location in Point Loma is already a popular eatery focused on American regional cuisine, handcrafted cocktails, tap wines, and craft beers.
Like it's sister restaurant in San Diego, Jimmy's in Dana Point will focus on organic and sustainable ingredients as much as possible, and dishes will be prepared from scratch daily. You could recognize some of your childhood favorite dishes on the menu with some creative interpretations, like the half-pound Jimmy Burger with Applewood bacon, pimento cheese, and jalapeno jelly, as well as steaks with buttermilk beer battered onion rings, or the New England clambake in a bowl.
It will also be a nationally certified GRA 'Green Restaurant' which will incorporate water and utility saving equipment and techniques, recycled building and paper materials and supplies, as well as a food-composting program.
The anticipated neighborhood eatery will be open for quick lunches, relaxing dinners, weekend brunches in the former Ristorante Ferrantelli location at Dana Point Harbor.
25001 Dana Point Harbor Drive in Dana Point.
