Oysters $1 each
We went on a vacation and was the first time in San Clemente. Heard about this pier and bar down near the ocean while at their amazing farmers market. Got the dollar oysters, bbq ribs, smoked fish a dollar per ounce, shrimp cocktail, everything was delicious but the oysters were the best and so was the bread. The view was amazing with the sun setting and watching the surfers in the water was very relaxing. We enjoyed the entire experience while there and will be back again soon.
Clam Chowder
The best clam chowders and boneyards in the world. Stuff is really friendly ❤️
Seafood Brochette
This dish was impressive. From the fish to the tender scallops to the scrumptious shrimp it was tasty to the T. The veggies were great and there was so much food left I literally took some home. You can't beat the price...I have tried at other places down the coast. It came with drawn butter and tartar sauce...just a great treat for a hungry palate!
Soft Shell Crab Benedict
Visiting from the Low Country in SC, hands down best Soft Shell Crab ever, fresh and beyond reproach! Sever was excellent, efficient and very professional. Will certainly be returning during our visit!!
Halibut and Chips
Halibut feast or anyone of the feast for two it crazy yummmmmmy, exclusive clams steamed in a yummy wine broth , plus tons of other stuff too
Shrimp Tacos
Delicious! We love The Fisherman's! Weather it's meeting up for breakfast, enjoying happy hour with friends or having an elegant dinner, the food is always top notch and the service is great! My favorite for many years.
Clam Linguini
Without a doubt, the best Clam Linguine my wife and I have ever eaten. However, it is not just this particular dish. We have had the pleasure of having numerous lunches and dinners here. We live in Virginia, but visit and stay in San Clemente several times a year, while seeing our children. Fisherman's is the only place we eat is at in San Clemente. Every dish is fantastic. The seafood is fresh, as if it was just caught. The service has always been excellent. Their servers are top-notch. Seating, whether indoor or outdoor, will not disappoint you. For a real experience, we recommend the outdoor dining area. Don't pass up eating at the Oyster Bar. It is a great place to meet people and have a good time. Trust us, you will not be disappointed dining at Fisherman's. Richard & Denise

T-Street
Absolutely amazing! Best place in SC!
Ahi Sandwich
OH EM GEEEE!! Best sandwich ever! Huge and delicious piece of Ahi grilled perfectly with crispy slaw and the best hot fries! Big enough to share, but you won't want to!! And an unbelievably great price for all that deliciousness! Plus a great view! This is my favorite lunch anywhere! Oh....and if you go chowder, have the half and half! It's the best! I'm hungry now!!

The Caesar salad was the most authentic Caesar salad that I have ever had. I absolutely love the ambiance of this restaurant and the staff are always very attentive.

Pacifico
It was the Ono sunset special! Amazing taste!
Calamari Strips
Calamari strips are so good! Nice and crispy on the outside, tender and juicy on the inside!!! Compliments the clam chowder bowls perfectly with that sunset view!
Prawns
I love this restaurant and the view. I've only been a few times because I live far away but the prawns were great and the service is always great. My first visit was the crab feast with another couple. That was such a great time that whenever I am close I have to come in.
Scampi
My husband and I Love this restaurant! A glass of Chardonnay, a bucket of steamed clams, Prawns in garlic butter, perfect warm soft and chewy sour dough bread, a beautiful view of the ocean and surfers catching a few waves. Whats not to love?
Atlantic Salmon Steak
Salmon was amazing! Great atmosphere and wonderful service!
Cottons
My new favorite!! Can't wait to come back for another!!
Filet Mignon & Lobster
My husband was raving so much about the deliciousness of his dish last night so I tried a piece of the lobster...kowabunga! What a flavor ride! So naturally when he moved on to the filet mignon the bell parade of deliciousness didn't stop. Again he sliced a piece foe me and I was blown away with its juicy tenderness. No A1 needed for it...believe me. It truly is the best medium rare filet mignon I have had in a very long time. I cannot tell you how much it is appreciated when a chef has perfected the art of headliner specialties. My husband also chose the coleslaw as a side along with veggies that are part of the dish. This dish topped mine which was the seafood brochette...and to be fair it's only because the seafood in it is always a show stopper. It clearly was a first rated food porn - to look at as well as to enjoy! By the way, our server Natalia was very attentive and timely. It was truly the most romantic dinner with ambiance that reminded us of being in Maui, HI and Bondi Beach,Austrailia. Thanks for an unforgettable night.

The Sunset Dinners are the BEST! Great quality and great value. Can't wait to come back.
Chicken Fettuccine*
Great taste, the chicken was tender and juicy! The noodles had just the right amount of tenderness to them and the sauce was to die for!
Fish and Chips
It was the absolute best I've ever had. I had fish and chips in Mykonos Greece which I thought was the best ever until I are fisherman's
Any Sunset Hour Drink Special
Love the drinks and Happy hour specials
Cioppino
I was given the opportunity by my wife to select the restaurant of choice for my birthday celebration. I choose Fisherman's for the best views and chews in my humble opinion, We decided to go for a late lunch around 2;30. The only thing better than the phenomenal ambiance of the patio seating and whit water views was the amazing flavors of the Cioppino - by far one of the best I've ever had, and i have sampled quite a few. If you're a seafood lover I highly recommend this dish - you will not be disappointed. And a final shout out for the waitstaff and the service, just the right amount attentiveness and perfect spacing between courses. A perfect birthday celebration meal. Thank-you.
The Halibut Feast
Every course was delicious and generous portions. The wine list is very good. A perfect meal in a perfect location. It's like being on vacation/cruise. The surprise birthday one cream cake was a perfect ending to a perfect dining experience. Thank you.
Soft Shell Crab Benedict
Absolutely one of my favorite breakfast dishes of all time! Perfectly poached eggs served over deliciously cooked crab! So, so good!!
