Except I couldn't open the stupid thing for a couple of minutes. Sure enough, a twenty got into the zipper. I was dripping sweat since I had just ascended the steep Thousand Steps Beach stairway and temperatures were rising on a muggy morning. The nice lady gave me a couple of papertowls to pat myself dry with, and did I ever need it. My legs were still burning from the ascent! What I needed wasn't booze, although I approved of the selection and reasonable prices, no, I needed sunblock. Sure enough, they carried it, plus I could have scored a Frisbee or another beach towel if necessary. I also saw a small but good cigar selection, which was funny because all morning I could smell cigar smoke and essence, even while on the beach. Anyhow, next time I need alcohol or a cigar or anything else I'll bypass the nearby 7-Eleven and come straight here!

Came here for dinner around 7 pm on a Tuesday and we were able to be seated right away on the patio…read morewith our dog. They start you off with complimentary chips, salsa and beans. I really enjoyed the beans and liked that it was offered as something different. I also ordered a spicy michelada with Modelo which was really good. For food we shared the pollo à la chipotle and seafood enchiladas. Both entrees were really good! You could taste the crab in the enchiladas and the sauce on the chicken was really good. The chicken was also moist and not dry. I enjoyed the chile relleno but felt like it wasn't needed. My boyfriend really liked the rice. They offered us more chips once we ran out and brought out a fresh batch. Oh my, the chips were amazing when they were still warm! If I wasn't full I could've eaten the whole basket myself. Our server was also friendly and brought water for our dog without us having to ask. Great location near the beach for a nice dinner with a breeze. We would definitely return!

They were delicious. We ordered several types of tacos, on both regular corn tortillas and crispy tortillas. WOW! Each bite was better than the one before. Is that possible ? Yes, it's possible. The food was so delicious, we ordered food to take with us for later. ( photos of take out attached. We were too busy eating out sit down meal). The service was exceptional. My water glass stayed full. The room is nice and cozy. We had no problem with parking, but I can imagine it may get tight during the dinner hour. We will return, because I look forward to trying several other menu items. I highly recommend Carmelita's.

I've been around wine most of my life, and one thing you learn pretty quickly is that you can tell…read morewhen someone is just **selling wine** versus when they're genuinely passionate about it. Bob's Fine Wine is the real deal. This place works whether you're looking for a Tuesday-night bottle or something in the $200+ range that requires you to explain to your spouse why it was "actually a very good value." The selection is impressive. I even found Behrens Family here, which isn't always easy to track down--and at a really good price. That was the moment I knew these guys were serious. What I especially like is that you don't need to be a wine collector to appreciate the place. There's something for everyone, from a solid daily drinker to bottles you'll stare at for six months waiting for an occasion important enough to open them. It really is a blessing to have this kind of selection right here in our town. Great wine, knowledgeable people, and genuine passion behind what they're doing. P.S. They also sell other alcohol, for those strange people who apparently drink things besides wine.

If you are in San Clemente or the surrounding areas, this is the best wine shop ever! It's a small…read moreshop, but they have a very good wine selection! It's super old-school so when you walk in it's very crowded with boxes on top of boxes and it's fairly dark at the back which I was told it was because some of the wines are light sensitive. I love knowing that they are so knowledgeable about the wines that they care for them in the proper way! They do have an extensive wine collection from all over the world and all price points. I did not have the pleasure of meeting Bob, the owner, today, but I did meet Baine, who works for Bob! He was so knowledgeable on all the wines and gave me the best options to try. I'm so excited to give my choices a shot. All I had to do was tell him what I like and kind of the general profile of what I like and he directed me with expert knowledge!

Both were made well. Only problem with the dish was the seasoning, so heavy on the salt. But the cook was perfect, fall off the fork tender.

They use Boar's head deli meats and that pleased me very much. Squaw was my choice of bread with all the condiments and paid extra for cheese. The sandwich was quickly made and professionally done. The sandwich was enjoyed but I prefer hot sandwiches. I did like the packaging of the sandwich, complete with the Boars Head seal on the paper. Overall I would say that it was better than subway and would chose it over the likes of subway any day. The store's location is good but the decor is a bit dive-ish. The staff is five star but all I asked for was a sandwich. They sell a variety of liquors here but since I don't drink I can not say what is its quality.
