This might b my new favorite San Clemente spot to take guests! The ambiance on the patio is like being in Europe n it’s QUIET!!! The service is impeccable! The food is very good- my fav is the goat cheese appetizer n fig salad I loved the local fresh fish specials-they walked right by our patio table with a whole fresh halibut that was still wriggling I Think. Only problem is the AC not so good inside but patio dining is my fav anyway.

What an amazing dining experience! Everything about this restaurant was superb. The ambience with the waves splashing was so romantic. The oysters were the freshest oysters my husband and I have ever had. The lobster bisque which was made table side was delicious. I had the miso black cod which was made to perfection. The Albariño wine paired perfectly with it. The main dish came with a side of mushrooms which were absolutely fresh and tasty. Who knew that mushrooms could taste so good. My husband had the prawns and the New York strip. They were both divine. For dessert we had the toffee pudding and chocolate cake. Both were perfectly decadent and delicious! Can’t wait to go back.

From the moment we stepped foot into this beautiful space we were blowen away. Everything was absolutely amazing. The drinks, food, service, atmosphere and service were top notch. The cheddar and chive biscuits were mouth watering. Light fluffy and delicious. The chowder was amazing! I could have eaten 2 bowls! The seabass was the best I have ever had. My husband enjoyed the Ribeye and the decadent bone marrow that is served with it! We topped everything off with the lemon cake that was the perfect ending to out delicious meal! We are excited to come back very soon and explore more master pieces from this kitchen!

Dining at Opah Restaurant was wonderful. The staff was freindly, kind and knowledgeable. We felt very comfortable. The service and food were outstanding. The owner came by our table to welcome us, just as he did for all the other guests. The menu was diverse and in selections and price. The atmosphere was relaxing and joyous. I highly recommend Opah Restaurant.

Another fabulous meal at Broadway! Amazing service the absolute best fries as if you’ve been before you know the French fries are bar none the best! It was a special occasion so chef made a special fried chicken (a real favorite) that was so incredibly delicious there aren’t words to describe it. Orgasmic! lol The hanger steak another absolute winner. Perfectly prepared scrumptious! Love the bitter green salad and the brussel sprouts. This meal was truly perfection. In fact the entire evening was perfection. Big shout out to all the incredible people who work there and make your experience rewarding every single time! Still best restaurant in Laguna Beach. Thank you everyone 😊

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely Divine! A Place That Keeps Me Coming Back! There’s something truly special about a restaurant that leaves such a lasting impression that you’re already planning your next visit before you’ve even finished enjoying the first! I had such an incredible dining experience at Seasons 52 on this particular day that I loved it so much, I immediately made another reservation for later that same week to celebrate my mom’s birthday! That birthday dinner turned out to be an unforgettable experience in itself! Unfortunately, because I made the reservation directly through the restaurant, I’m unable to leave a review about that visit here. However, I shared all the wonderful details on Google Reviews for anyone interested in reading about the extraordinary evening they created for my mom and me! I simply cannot say enough about how much I LOVE Seasons 52! The food is consistently divine, the flavors are exquisite, and every meal reminds me why this is one of my absolute favorite places to dine. I genuinely could eat their food every single day and never tire of it! What makes Seasons 52 stand out is that they have mastered the art of making guests want to return. It’s not just about serving an amazing meal. It’s about creating an experience that leaves you looking forward to the next one. When a restaurant can turn one wonderful visit into another reservation just days later, that speaks for itself! Seasons 52, you’ve certainly won my heart and my appetite! I can’t wait to return again and again! Five stars, every single time! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
