Best Romantic Restaurants in San Clemente

Highly impressed with the service and the quality of the evening. Truly a make your day kind of experience.

One of our favorite neighborhood haunts and always a pleasure. We especially love the patio. The weather did not permit patio seating this particular night with the combination of Santa Ana winds and a particularly chilly temperature for SoCal, but we found the interior a lovely change. During the weekend the dining room can get a bit loud as the acoustics aren’t great, but since we were here during the off season for SJC (and on a weeknight) it was fairly quiet. Our server was fabulous and the food was exceptional. The squash blossom flatbread is a must!!

Waitress was a little confused and initially brought the wrong tea. She was apologetic and may have been new. My only complaint is there was a small dog at the table near us that was barking off and on. Felt they should have been asked to take the dog out of it couldn’t behave or stop barking. Luckily it was towards the end of our time there but feel bad for others who just got there. Other than that had a great time and enjoyed the food.

You can’t beat Luciano’s for atmosphere, and when you can find a good Italian restaurant with veal parmigiana on the menu, you go for it! It’s what we might have called back in New Jersey “a classy joint!”

Incredible food made by scratch. The flavors and textures of the food were so unique and so delicious! Cocktails and wine all from Mexico. Entire staff is so passionate about the food!
