This restaurant is set in a building that was once the 1797 home of Miguel Yorba as well as the town’s court and jail, built in 1812. The former jail, in which currently stands the restaurant’s wine cellar, is said to be haunted by a ghost. The apparition of a headless friar has also been seen in front of the restaurant.
