    We've probably been here five times in the last six months, and every time the food is consistently delicious. My go to is the Caprese sandwich, and my husband has tried something different each visit...he's loved everything so far. The staff is always friendly, the place is clean, and they have a great outdoor, pet-friendly patio with umbrellas. Definitely one of our regular spots!

    Went here again for lunch. Had the BBQ Chicken hot sandwich and BBQ pulled pork hot sandwich. Both were excellent! Paired it with chips and a cold brew! The service was great and the accommodations were welcoming. The vibe is relaxed and each booth has a flat screen tv.

    Came in right before closing to order quickly and the guys were very nice. I had the most lovely pastrami sandwich called the Malibu. 10 out of 10.

    Cute little location of a local mini chain of sandwich shops above the beach. Numerous hot and cold sandwich choices, salad, and sides/appetizers. Interior has a beach/tiki feel with a patio to sit outside. Our choices today were a small (half) Ruben and a full size Hobie. The Hobie is a combo of Pastrami and Salami-Genoa I believe. Served in a soft hoagie style roll with provolone cheese and Italian dressing. Plus your other accoutrements. I chose light on the dressing and am glad I did as the bread got pretty mushy even with that choice. But the meats, cheese, lettuce and tomato went very nicely with the roll. It's a filling sandwich. The half Rueben was pronounced good but wet with all the moist ingredients-sauerkraut, mustard, 1000 island and the meat cooked in Italian dressing. But not a bit was left. If you're looking for a picnic to take to the beach, I'm sure you could do much worse than this place. Just order accordingly to enjoy your sandwich.

    Great food and good atmosphere. Can't beat the location across the street from the beach and the staff is super friendly and helpful. Definitely need to visit if ur a local or visiting San Clemente.

    Love beach hut for a fancy sandwich! We have come here and picked up and the food is always really good. They have a cute patio that is dog friendly. They have a sandwich for everyone, hot or cold and kids options. The service has always been friendly and quick. We will definitely be back and love the location, right by north beach!

    i waited a whole fucking hour just to revive a 3 inch chode of a sand which. The worker was very rude and sassy. 1/100 would not recommend.

    I had a wonderful experience at The Cellar and was honestly surprised to see a negative review…read moreabout a server's "attitude," because that was the complete opposite of what I witnessed. The owner has created an incredible space warm, intimate ambiance, an outstanding food menu, and one of the best wine selections I've seen in a long time. Everything felt thoughtful and elevated without being pretentious. Our server, Tatum was professional, attentive, and extremely patient. I happened to be seated nearby during an interaction with a group of women who were openly rude and condescending toward her from the start. Despite that, she remained calm, polite, and handled herself with grace. If anything, she showed remarkable composure under unnecessary pressure. Service jobs aren't easy, and it's disappointing when unfair situations get misrepresented online. Based on what I personally observed, Tatum did nothing but her job and did it well. Highly recommend The Cellar for the food, wine, atmosphere, and overall experience. We'll absolutely be back.

Everyone else had similarly great experiences with their food. Loved this and hope to be back someday.

The seasoning is just right and the bagel is subtly yeasty and slightly sweet with just the right amount of crispness without giving up the traditional dense, semi-chewy interior.

Just very very casual and not totally comfortable. Food- 3.4/4 out of 5 - I got the Luau plate and LOVED the chicken!! Everyone else was right- that chicken thigh deserves its own plate. I also really enjoyed the coconut pudding/jello thing that came with it and the sausage link. The pulled pork was just okay, not very well seasoned but not bad. The side of "dressed greens" was just some lettuce without dressing on it, and I thought the macaroni salad was fine. The last thing that really disappointed me were the sautéed veggies :/ they were just soo oily and had no seasoning to them at all. I didn't eat any of them or the un-dressed 'salad'. My husband got the chicken katsu plate, he said the chicken katsu was fine but the fries on the side were cold and not crispy, they were kind of chalky in the mouth and didn't taste fresh. Some parts were definitely a 3/5 but my chicken thigh was so good and the portions are *huge* so I feel like they deserve a 4/5? All in all, I think I'd come back if I wanted to go out with someone but save some money and we'd split one of the plates (the portions really are huge).

Parking was easy for me I found street parking right by the beach, but they also have parking in the shopping plaza. I just happened to park outside. Before ordering, I asked to sample the egg salad and chicken salad, and honestly, I'm glad I did. Neither tasted fresh and both were lacking flavor, so that helped me decide to skip those. I ended up ordering the turkey sandwich with bacon, avocado, and all the fixings (I believe it's called the Rosa Special) on squaw bread. I have to say this sandwich was absolutely delicious. The bacon was perfectly crispy, the turkey was solid, and everything just worked together really well. What really stood out was their house sauce. I'm not sure what's in it, but it was so goooood! I even overheard other customers asking for it on the side. Definitely making a mental note to do that next time and find out exactly what it is. My only downside is the price. It was a bit high (around $18+), and I'm not sure it fully justifies that cost, but the quality is there. Overall, quick service, a really solid sandwich, and a spot I'd recommend if you're in the area.
