It’s something you will tend to pass by on the freeway, but unless you have a personal connection to the area - and I do, one of my two best friends ever lives here - Mission Viejo just kinda is, a nook in South County. There are a couple of really nice restaurants buried away here and doubtless more than meets the eye, but nothing strikingly unique that I can think of. Cozy, I can see why people live there, and that’s about all I can say, really.
