    I hadn't been here in a few months and now I remember why! It is absolutely ATROCIOUS and horribly embarrassing to have this in San Clemente where people are desperate for decent restaurants. I've had much better pasta ANYWHERE else. The only positive attribute is the kids who take your order and are very sweet. Don't eat here!!! The salmon was overcooked and placed on wilted iceberg lettuce with canned artichokes and tasteless asparagus. The pasta was extremely SALTY and gross with the HUGEST mussels I've ever seen. A few of them were rancid. The shrimp was chalky and I spit it out. Horrible take out experience :(

    Leftovers the next for lunch

    The most wonderful food last night - the seafood special with angel hair pasta was amazingly delicious! I orderd Pasta e fagioli - it was so yummy and with freshness - warmed my heart - we also ordered a side of Francesca rolls but packed them to go bc we had too much food & went home with leftovers to last for three more meals - our server was so excellent- I tipped her twice !!! Very noisy but we made due bc the food was so amazingly delicious!!!

    We had wonderful food and service as we hosted our son's rehearsal dinner. Joey and Bobby were wonderful to do business with. They even did all off the preparation of the room and serving. They made special accommodations for a couple of dietary needs. It was a beautiful room and evening. Thank you so much!

    Fiancé & I chose this restaurant as our rehearsal dinner venue due to the easy banquet and catering menu and finally had our first meal here. We love Italian food and really enjoyed eating at this restaurant. Beautiful intimate vibes, great service, seated right away on a busy night. The fried calamari and fresh baked focaccia bread were our appetizers and they were so delicious and comforting on a windy cold night. We had Alfredo pasta and marinera pasta because those are similar dishes from the banquet menu and were pleased with the big hearty and fresh portions, definitely had leftovers. We also got a decadent tiramisu too! Perfect tasting not too sweet! Highly recommend coming back here & looking forward to my rehearsal dinner here!!

Let me tell you- the unplanned is always the best! I had been wanting to try it but knowing the other locations had hard parking, and man oh man, one of my favorite meals and so well priced! 1. Red snapper with veggies and mushrooms. Wow! The fish was so full of flavor even before the sauce, well portioned, well priced. And the veggies were filling and cooked to perfection! 2. Fish and chips - have been on a mission to find good fish and chips- the fish was huge, tasty and meaty! Just a bit oily, but still YUMMY! Service: Corrina seriously is the reason I am writing this review! As I was frustrated with the parking situation by the harbor and just tired, she turned around my mood! She was so passionate and joyful about what she does and the food she serves! And she gave us the lowdown on the whole construction situation in Dana point! Thank you for your amazing service!!! Lastly: the inside is so pretty, inviting, and spread out and clean! Def will be back!! Thank you!

I get there, and they put us next to the fire exit, not close to the water. I brought up the fact that I explicitly asked for a table next to the water, and the person on the phone confirmed. I see two free tables next to the water and I ask if I could go there. They say these were reserved. I said mine was too. They then send in the floor host or whatever, she said these tables were reserved in person, guests put down the name and they do not take special place reservations on the phone. I said, well the person who took the reservation did not say anything. And what's the point in making a difference between a reservation in person and one on the phone? Food is just average, and quite overpriced for what you get. There are better options downtown at this price range. Service was sloppy throughout the dinner. Seriously, get your service together. When your staff drops the ball, own up to it, not even a simple apology was offered. Unacceptable.

I am an oyster girl so I knew what I wanted, which was something not too creamy. Usually this time of year they are but I asked anyway. The server made a suggestion and went off to place the order. He came back and let me know that the oyster shucker suggested a different one that was not creamy at all. I really appreciated that and was very happy with the oyster selection. We did a lot of small plates for happy hour. They were very small plates and still relatively high prices. We felt like all the dishes were missing seasoning. We also had cocktails that were fine but not exceptional. Overall it was an enjoyable experience but not mind blowing.

He also was sweet enough to bring our daughter a blanket to make her comfy. It gets a little chilli outside on the patio so they offer nice, warm blankets. By far the best service I have ever had! I didn't take photos of everything, but we loved every dish we had. We ordered the mushroom plate as an appetizer, definitely an acquired taste. If you're not a mushroom person, I don't suggest it lol. We also had the octopus plate to share, and it was amazing!!!! Jiyan explained how it is prepared and he had us at, "it's not chewy," because who knew octopus wasn't supposed to be chewy lmao! The oysters were our favorite, you can never go wrong with some raw, clean oysters! The pasta and branzino were so perfectly prepared as well. Beautiful presentation and just the right amount of heavy and light. Ube Sansrival was the perfect way to finish the course, found out the chef is a Filipina!!!

We got seated immediately but it was right next to the hostess stand.. which felt like the lobby of the restaurant. Honestly felt like the reject zone. Especially when the pictures in Yelp of the interior looked so nice and had a great view. We had no view. The server asked if we wanted sparkling or still water, I got sparkling and he got still. Turns out they were $8 each.. had I known that, I prob would have gotten an actual drink. The bread was complimentary and that was great, especially since our toddler loved the sun dried tomato tapenade. He also got the kids Mac and cheese, I got lobster risotto, & husband got the seafood orecchiette. Mac and cheese was just average, risotto was a little salty and a bit undercooked. Seafood orecchiette was tasty but nothing I'd crave again. Overall just an okay experience. When we got the check, noticed a 20% service charge and wasn't that happy about it since we only had 3 people, the food was just alright, and we had to sit in the weird lobby-like area of the restaurant. Would only ever come back for convenience, nothing else.

I knew I needed some seafood if I am this close to the ocean, so I ordered the a bowl of their clam chowder and the Northern halibut with coleslaw. The halibut and coleslaw were the stars of the show. The halibut was cooked perfectly with a nice crisp on the outside and a soft, delightfully flaky inside. They then pair it with a house made lemon butter sauce which was truly next level. I wish I could've bottled it to have for later. lol. The coleslaw was light and delicious. It stood strong on its own, though it paired so well with the halibut and the lemon butter sauce I would consider it as a personal must with therir halibut. The service was absolutely amazing. My server was super kind, attentive, and had friendly banter. They kitchen is open and you can see everything being prepared which was super cool. It is evident they take their craft and guest experience very seriously. I hope to have a reason to be back in the area and enjoy another trip to Coastal Kitchen.
