Clemente Seafood Restaurant

I have to say, they haven’t lost their touch even after all these years! They still have the same cook too, good for them 👏. Back when I lived in S.A., I used to go to the one on 1st & Broadway as well as this location, and they never disappointed. The shrimp cocktails and 7 mares soup were always my go-to after a night out. I’ve long since moved away, so it’s harder to come by now, but I made it back today, and I was not disappointed one bit. I commute a lot and I've been coming more and more to OC do to work. So let's just say that you'll be seeing me more and more now.

There is no place that I'd rather eat the Clemente's seafood.

So good it's the best.

The ceviche de camaron was fresh and well prepared! They give you a small container of ketchup sauce and it was amazing 👏 very well done ladies and gentlemen!

Food was not that great. And this place was expensive. $75 for 2 burritos 1 torta & 2 drinks. The place owned by the sister was WAYYYY better - The bread, the freshness and the cost was much more reasonable. But if it's good, i don't mind paying a little extra, but that was not the case. Was excited to find this place and find out they were related to eachother, but this definitely missed the mark as I'm bummed since the other place sold and shut down. They even had their own bakery and that bread was bomb. Bottom line, food is ok, but definitely not worth the cost.

Ordered the fish ceviche and grilled fish taco. Ceviche had crumbled bits of what appears to be imitation crab. Fish in the taco smelled fishy.

I don't recommend this place based on these two items. No need to try other dishes seeing how there are many Mexican restaurants

Okay, usually I would never write a less than 5 star review, but my friends and I walked away feeling scammed. Food was okay (not worth reviewing—it was fine and portions were generous, but not special or particularly delicious), but prices were ridiculous. $18 for tostada de ceviche de pescado? $7 for an horchata? Two of us ordered ceviche and two of us plates on a Saturday for lunch, and we each ordered a drink. The total was $125.55 before tip. We didn’t see the prices before we were seated, or we would have left. Just be ready to pay if you’re going to go!

Been coming here for years with my wife and daughter, the food used to be good but now it doesn’t have enough flavor especially the burrito which had no flavor at all. Its very hot there and the owner doesn’t have an AC, he uses ceiling fans which one of the fans was broken. The owner seems to get irritated when i request a lot of things in my burrito or when me and my wife ask for extra sauce. Also the food is very expensive, it’s not worth it in my opinion.
