- NNathanOrange County •1 review5.0Dined todayWe went for our anniversary and the team made it very special for us beyond simply providing timely and friendly service. They went above and beyond, clearly taking extra care when we told them it was our anniversary. The food was well-made, flavorful, and presented nicely. Our drinks were delicious as well.

- AAndrewVIPOrange County •1 review5.0Dined 2 days agoFirst time visiting and was impressed with the food. This is the old Brick space and they have the same pizza oven. Meatballs were primo. Arugula salad was huge and tasty but could use some more hazelnuts. Pizza 10-10 Spaghetti carbonara was very good but they used chorizo? and not bacon lardons and that was a let down, but technically well done dish.More infoParlor, Woodfire Kitchen & CocktailsPrice: Moderate• American• San Clemente•4.6
