From the reviews

A wonderfully memorable meal! So many good things to say about this place. I will start first with the drinks. The bartender was not only very personable She helped my wife and I pick out the perfect wine and cocktail.

Returning to the Ledford House after 20 years felt like reuniting with an old friend—one that has aged gracefully, maintained its charm, and still knows how to host a perfect evening.

Great restaurant with a great view. I’ll say it is pricey but everything was fabulous! I did the three course bistro special. It came with a blackberry salad, Gnocchi with rabbit sausage, and a chocolate crème dessert. All three were fantastic! My wife got the filet, it was cooked perfect and overall she liked it.

★★★★★ — Andrew, Sep 2023

This was our third meal at Ledford. We eat there for date nights, birthdays and when we feel like splurging. The staff is a perfect mix of professional and casual. The dining room is situated with a beautiful ocean view, even when the fog rolls in and out. The food. The food! Absolutely the best Filet Mignon.

Getting married at Ledford House

Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see the ceremony spot at the exact time of day you'd say your vows — a west-facing beach glows at sunset but bakes at noon, and you'll want to feel the wind, watch where the sun sits, and walk the path your guests take across the sand. Second, bring your real questions: the weather backup (where does the ceremony move if it rains or the wind kicks up?), who pulls the beach permit, the sound-ordinance curfew, the catering and bar policy, and exactly what's included — chairs, setup, and teardown on sand are where quotes quietly diverge. Peak beach dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
