Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in San Clemente

Let me start with saying, this is the best place around. Food quality and ingredients like oysters mushrooms in my dish , prime cut meat for my partner and wagyu burger for a kid, are something to be proud about serving. Service is very good, owners are very pleasant and present, which means a lot. It screams that they care. Ambiance is unique, beautiful heated garden as no other place in town. Almost forgot about coctails. They are great, very well price only $18 for quality drinks. I like them slightly sweet, so mine was perfect and my partner asked for something spicy, and they listened and got it right.

Dinner, service & ambiance was amazing! Highly recommend this restaurant.

The food at Great Maple is always presented beautifully and always tastes delicious. Today was unusually crowded. The noise level was high and the service was a bit slower than usual. If you dine here, ask to sit with Arianna. We were not in her section today.

They were busy, however the hostess was able to keep up with check-ins and patrons paying their bills. We had a reservation and waited about 10 minutes for our table. Our server was kind and explained all that they had to offer. Food was delicious. I would go back!

The food is amazing! We had the walnut shrimp, coconut curry, New York strip, pork ribs, and fried rice—all were amazing. We were in the inside room and there were two large parties so the noise level was high. But overall, a wonderful dinner!!
