Loved the food here! Service was amazing and fast. Garlic edamame was delicious (asado maybe). I've never had it cooked that way. We got 4 rolls and they were all amazing!! So many choices we couldn't decide. Cute lil mom and pop shop. It was our first time here and will definitely come back. I would recommend this place. read more

San Clemente Sushi Company - Garlic edamame - Sushi Bars Near Me - San Clemente, California

San Clemente Sushi Company is very easy to find, right on the corner with its unique rounded turret architecture. This small plaza has its own parking lot with about a dozen spaces. The lot was about half full at 5pm on a Sunday. The dining room is small. There are five or six tables, and some seating at the sushi bar. It does have a nice feel with the round interior, high ceiling, and many windows with a nice view outside. There was some light background music playing. It wasn't busy this early, but it started to get busier after 5:30pm. We started out with the four piece jalapeno poppers ($10). These were very good. The jalapenos were crisp, stuffed with cream cheese, with two sauces drizzled on top. I think there was also a little spicy tuna on top. Next, we ordered a California roll ($8) and a spicy tuna roll ($9). These were good standard rolls with fresh ingredients, and reasonably priced, especially for the area. They have a menu of chef's special rolls which sounded good, and we decided to try the Pink Lady (Inside: Shrimp, Crab, Spicy Tuna, Avocado, Outside: Salmon, Jalapeno, Lemon, Soy Paper, Mustard Ponzu, $20). It might seem a little expensive, but it a roll with no rice. It was excellent, and well worth the money. If you love citrus like I do, you have to try it. I have never had pink lemon before. It's still tart but sweeter than a yellow lemon and less sweet than a Meyer lemon. Our server was friendly, and our food arrived promptly. We would return again when in the area. The only downside is that the restaurant is small. If the dining room is full, you may have to wait a while to be seated. read more

First Impression: first time we had it was take out, and the portions were generous and fish was super fresh. First impression dining in - small dining area, a lot of take out materials of covidpast Location: located near the freeway. Parking is limited and shared with the plaza. You park in the back and walk around the building to enter. Experience: service is quick and friendly. We have gone a couples times now and each time whether dine in or take out is the same. Sushi chef are working fast to pump out orders without compromising on quality. I would suggest the non rice options and sushi. Note: you can phone in your take out order for fast service. read more

Pretty good sushi. The T street salmon roll was the best part of the meal. Still looking for a great place to go for sushi in SC

This place is a very nice the food is very tasty to eat and good service and they even gave us free wontons. The only bad things about the service was the miso soup was pretty cold and the tofu in it was also a bit cold in the core of it. read more

We generally get our sushi door dashed, but we have also dined in. Either option is great and fresh! We love the variety of selection they offer and the quality is top tier. Fish to rice ratio is perfect and the fish taste very flavorful. Our orders from doordash are always right and service in the restaurant is good. I will say in a post covid world you can still see the take out only set up they have which takes away from the look of the dining area. If you are looking for a good and fresh option, look no further. read more

After a long day at the PPA (pickleball) tournament at Lifetime in San Clemente, my husband, daughter and I were seeking dinner. I checked Yelp and saw that San Clemente Sushi Company was open for another 48 minutes, so I called to confirm they could accommodate our party of three... sure enough, they could! We arrived five minutes later to a table waiting for us. It's a small restaurant and it's not fancy at all, but it seems like it has been around awhile for good reason. We enjoyed some edamame, nigiri, maki, handrolls, and sashimi bento boxes... We probably over-ordered a bit, but it was all quality and served pretty quickly. Service was interesting in that we actually sat for awhile before being given menus and water, and one bento box came out a good five minutes before the other, but it was all good. We were appreciative of a delicious meal and would absolutely return. read more

I'm assuming there has been a recent ownership change.. went last night, didn't recognize any of the staff. They now play rap music, not a huge fan but ok. My salad was served with very large slices of "frozen" cucumber.... Not sure what's going on. read more

Friendly service and good food! I've been seeing new changes to the restaurant and I'm a fan of the more modern, inviting look than what it was years ago. I've had a few friends mention this place again and I haven't been for a long time, so my family and I decided to give it a go. We came on a Friday night around 6pm and met Ben and Jen! They were so welcoming and told us there's been a change of ownership since early last year -- I've got to say the food quality is overall better and DELICIOUS. To top it off, they were so accommodating to my kids and their (rolling my eyes) demanding requests bc they are picky eaters. I'm looking forward to making this our weekly sushi eatery! My only qualm is the limited seating but it looks like they seem to make it work. I noticed a lot of takeout orders happening as well, so they are definitely busy. Great meeting you both and see you next week! read more

I ordered sushi and rolls through Door Dash. The food was phenomenal. The value and quality of the fish was excellent. I look forward to visiting this establishment in person. Highly recommend! read more

This place was decent! They have now hiring signs surrounding their building on the outside. My mom and I got the ikura, the samurai roll, and the Philadelphia roll. They were okay. The service was extremely quick! read more

As mediocre as it gets. It's edible but not pleasurable. Second time here. It's cheap and it fills you up but it's not good sushi. read more

poor customer service!!! on a tuesday night, they had tables filled with no food. I don't know if they're understaffed or have a poor operating system. They had us waiting 20 minutes before telling us to leave because they sold out. Do better next time read more

Food: 4. Came by for a Saturday lunch just after they opened. Place was mostly empty at the time. When we left, it was under half full. Menu is relatively small with basic common Japanese offerings. We ordered some nigiri, Sushi Sampler, and the Unagi Don. Their nigiri ootions were not on their main menu but a sheet that you mark your selections. Strange that only the Unagi Don had no price on their menu. It was $19. Food came out timely and looked appealing. My unagi was good and the portion was big. I should have asked for the Unagi to be cooked longer so the edges/skin was slightly crispy. The other people in my party said the sushi and sashimi was good and tasted fresh. Ambiance was comfortable and basic. This is a small place with no outside seating. Service was good but our server had to ask others for most of the questions we asked. read more

A raving 5-star review for the San Clemente Sushi Company. I recently dined here during a visit to San Clemente for a wedding. The restaurant had a number of seats available on a Saturday night, so our party was able to get quickly seated. I ordered my usual, a baked salmon roll with eel sauce, garlic edamame, and snuck bites from the plates of others. I was impressed by the quality of each dish and the freshness of their sushi. SC Sushi Company also serves up an incredible bento box. I was able to sample their Chicken Katsu bento, which came with miso soup, crispy chicken katsu, gyoza, and tempura veggies. This dish was a 10/10 and could easily be shared between two people. Highly recommend checking this spot out the next time you're in the area! read more

Really enjoyed eating here with my family who was visiting! There wasn't a wait and had parking in the back. Service was good as they kept checking in on us and made sure our night was going well. The quality of the fish was fresh and cuts were pretty and nice. My favorite was the ebi nigiri. Tried this Japanese beer I've never had before and it was an interesting flavor. I didn't try any of the rolls but I will try them next time I go. read more

Nice, small sushi restaurant in San Clemente that seems to be popular with locals. The atmosphere is fairly quiet and relaxed. They have a few specialty rolls and the typical American rolls like Rainbow, California, Philly etc. as well as ramen and bento boxes. The prices were good. I would come here again. read more

Finally got to visit San Clemente for the first time for the sole purpose of visiting this sushi place by the beachside! They did not disappoint as it's one of the best ones I've had. From the service to the food and ambiance, everything is of superior quality. I've had an omekase style dining as the Chef gave us some his personalized sashimi and roll which made the taste even better. All the flavor is never dull and the tanginess and spice enhanced the taste. My favorite would be the sashimi and the pink lady roll which has a good balance of sweetness and spice. Pair 'em with good beer and just have a good time. Plenty of seats and parking is available. read more

We go to San Clemente a few times per year and this place is always on our hit list. For the first time, we ate at the restaurant with the kids and we loved how relaxed and casual it felt. They have a pineapple habanero sauce that my husband loved so much that he bought a bottle of it. The poke nachos here are simply my favorite. I love the addition of crab meat and nori. Their clam chowder is worth it and my husband loves to swing by for the happy hour oysters. This is a counter service restaurant, you just take your number to the table and they bring your food out. read more

Decided to try this place for a quick sit down meal to catch up with an old friend. I decided to get the sashimi bento box and it was the best decision I made! It came with so much food -- 4 types of fish! It came with bluefin tuna, yellowtail, albacore, and salmon. I usually don't like bluefin tuna, but the fish was very fresh and had the perfect texture! The albacore and yellowtail were phenomenal too! So light and melted in my mouth like butter. Not to mention, you get all of this food for only $27! It really just melted in my mouth and went great with the rice, gyoza, and shrimp tempura! The bento also came with miso soup which was nice and hot. The service was quick and they were very attentive! This place is good to go to when you want to have a quick, casual, delicious meal! Any time I am in San Clemente area and am craving sashimi, I'll definitely come here for it! read more

If you're looking for high end sushi, there are better options in my opinion. However, why they're a five star is they are a great price to quality ratio. Sushi isn't cheap but this place hits the perfect spot where you don't feel like you're going to take out a loan to get some quality fish. The staff is also very nice and friendly. I really like the Superman roll when I'm trying to keep my carbs down and if I can't decide then the bento box has a little bit of everything. My favorite is the sweet shrimp as they also deep fry the head and I love the crunch. They're also great with takeout which was our saving grace during the peak of Covid and we had limited options. read more

I've been to multiple sushi restaurants around San Clemente and this one is definitely the best one. Not bland at all, great flavor, amazing staff, and the sushi is phenomenal. Very comfortable place to eat as well. I highly highly recommend eating here. read more

We ordered take out. Fast service, good food and the price is right. We will come bay for more.

This is an updated review during Covid times. 5 stars because services was splendid. She actually remember my friend and I (I mean we used to go here daily or even weekly) we ordered our usual rolls and appetizers, everything was up to date with the guidelines and they also have outside dining, limited sitting. Fish was fresh, no complaints here. Every dish to go was secure in the to go boxes. read more

My first time trying out San Clemente sushi Co and unfortunately I took the order to go because there were no seats available. Small dining area inside but that's ok. I ordered the katsu chicken bento box with extra gyoza. Well packaged and presented I'd say for a to go item. The chicken was very good, the shrimp tempura was awesome , and the gyoza was delicious. Nice portion size too so I was satisfied. Next time I go I'll try to go during a non peak hour and snag a table to try some of their sushi. Parking is not great because of the area but there is a small lot behind the restaurant if you're lucky. I found street parking and walked there. Staff was very friendly as well. read more

I came in for lunch on a Saturday afternoon; they weren't very busy. Upon walking up, I was a little skeptical that this place was going to be as good as the reviews stated.
