If "meh" opened a restaurant, this would be it. Steak was ok, but overdone. Fish was dry. I don't know how to define the chicken tenders. Encased? Extremely loud, ho-hum service. I will not return. read more

My mother loves to eat here so we try to take her whenever we visit. You have to get the onion rings and there are lots of choices on the menu. Have never had anything bad. Service is always good. Nice view of the harbor and outside seating when the weather allows. read more

This place was highly recommended. We got the cod and shrimp special with the 6 inch onion ring tower as an appetizer. All the food was excellent and we had no complaints....except that it was a little pricey for what we got. read more

We took my dad on a charter fishing trip for Father's Day and our Captain recommended we try Clementine's for lunch, so we did! We were quoted a 30-45 minute wait for the patio so we opted to dine inside instead. At our Captain's suggestion, we tried the onion ring stack as an appetizer and it was excellent. We also tried the artichoke dip and fried zucchini, both of which were delicious. I had a steak salad and it was filling. The rest of my family ordered burgers or fish sandwiches (can't remember the names of them all!) and nobody was disappointed. Great spot on the river for a relaxing lunch or special dinner! read more

Run of the mill American diner food, shrimp in the Cesar salad over cooked, had to wait way too long for drinks.

Busy, even on a weeknight! Worth a wait for the flavorful well-made food and friendly service. We had a variety of food- salads, burgers, and several fish. All well prepared. Yes, get the onion rings!!! read more

The service was good but when you walk in you can almost taste the oil. The food was cold even after waiting over 45 min. The fish and fries tasted of old oil. This is a tourist trap as the south haven location seems to have rave reviews. read more

We were there for over 2 hours. The kitchen bumped our rib order; nobody came and told us because we could have ordered something else. After waiting over 90 mins for our food, one person's food didn't even arrive. I asked 4 times for my baked potato that was supposed to come with my food and never got it. The waitress was so sweet. But I'm not sure we will be back after this experience. 2 hours for a quick dinner is too long to wait for food on a night when the restaurant was 2/3 way empty. read more

The food was delicious... solid pub grub. We sat outside, which was a little noisy and smelly initially (from the river) but didn't detract from anything that badly. Our server was on top of everything and did a wonderful job of pacing out our meal. I would have said 4.5 stars overall but yelp doesn't give you that option, so I went with 5. read more

With over $100 meal AND A MATCHING TIP at hole in the wall restaurant, the manage came by and asked us to leave to make room for their busy night of customers. We had only been there an hour and half of that was waiting for our order. We though we could sit down and relax to a good evening meal with a couple of new friends. BUT NOT the FAT ANGRY MANAGER CALLED US RUDE FOR ENJOYING A TABLE WE BASICALLY PAID FOR. She could not appreciate the value we brought to CLEMENTINES RESTAURANT. read more

Everything I get here isn't fresh. It's all canned, processed, and they slather cheese on EVERYTHING. It just isn't good. The location is primo. I guess that's why they can charge what they do for what you get? I don't know. I've been here three times now... Three strikes, you're out. They slather their mussels in spinach and cheese. Why????? The broccoli is overdone and under-seasoned. The steak leaves a lot to be desired. The chicken breast on the sandwich is so tiny. It's so underwhelming. I go out because I don't want to cook and I want better food than I can cook This is not it. Sorry Clem's. read more

I always give a restaurant a second chance before I write a bad review, and Clementines Two is no exception. We visited last year, and the wife got the fried perch. It was dry to the point of being shriveled up and way too salty. She gagged down two pieces and left the rest. We decided to give it another chance. The same thing this visit. I got a cheeseburger, it was burnt on both sides, even though I ordered it medium rare. French fries were soggy and cold. Service was okay, but nothing to make up for the horrible food. Waitress didn't bother to ask if anything was wrong even though we didn't eat the majority of the food. The one and only redeeming item were the onion rings. They do have excellent onion rings. Hence the one star. read more

The outdoor seating was quite nice overlooking the canal where many boats were parked. The chicken Caesar salad was delicious, slightly over dressed for my taste. The onion ring appetizer was good, a little cold at arrival. A member in my party got the turkey barn dance (turkey, bacon, and cheese on a croissant) and mentioned it could have benefited from a little spring mix on top to add some freshness. The fries were a thicker cut fry and good. Our little one got a grilled cheese and even ate the crust (she'd give 5 stars). The burger with onion rings on top (4/5 stars). I'd certainly go back to Clementines. Oh yes, our service was excellent. salad read more

Very nice location on the Morrison channel of the st Joseph river. Love the peach in melted butter

Went on a Friday with my family and had some great food! The server was friendly and knowledgeable. The food was excellent and the prices were reasonable for the area. I would definitely come back if I'm in the area. read more

Clementines Too - Lake perch, baked potato, coleslaw and garlic bread - Seafood Near Me - Saint Joseph, Michigan

I tried the Strawberry Fields salad (very dry overcooked chicken breast on top) and it was just iceberg lettuce with strawberries (they were good), feta, walnuts. Fair... Had a side of broccoli, which cost $5.00 and half of it was yellow. I can't believe they served it like that! The rice pilaf my wife had with her salmon dinner was so salty she couldn't even eat it. The waiter seemed new, and while he gave it a good effort, two people in our party did not receive their food until most of us were finished eating. The waiter brought everyone's drinks out one at a time, which took forever. We arrived at 6:30 and didn't get our checks until nearly 9:00. Not going back there. read more

This was a very nice Sunday dinner spot with a killer location. We were out in St. Joseph, Michigan after apple picking and - after a bit of wine tasting in the city - dropped in at Clementine's. The restaurant is located just outside the city center and right on the banks of the St. Joe river. In the restaurant, you look out a wall of windows over the outdoor patio right on to the river - great location. We started out with drinks - a Blue Lemonade (4 stars and nicely balanced), a mild Bloody Mary (3 stars the usual), a St. Joe's Tap Water (3 stars and a bit too sweet), and a bunch of local draft beers (all 4 stars and very nice). For appetizers we had the Nachos with taco meat on top (4 star nice, the cheese could have been just a bit warmer but the beef on top was a nice addition) and 12" of onion rings (5 star perfectly fried and neatly presented with homemade sauces). For dinner our party had perch (3 star ok), a Dinghy Basket (3 star chicken strips that could have been crisper), the Corner Deli (a nice Reuben sandwich at 3 stars), a Gold Miner (3 star nicely cooked hamburger but on a soggy bun), a High Roller (a 3 star roast beef sandwich), an Oh My Darling (3 star crab piled on a bun, but with tepid cheese on top), and our last diner had a simple pound of boiled shrimp (4 stars and probably the hit of the dinners). Service was on the slow side as our waitress had too many tables to work. We suspect some of the tepid cheese was because the plates sat in back too long. All in all nice sandwiches, but the best part of the experience was the appetizers. Maybe next time we'll just drop in for drinks and appetizers. read more

Our meals were sensational some of the tastiest food I've ever had in my life it was my 71st birthday and Lord have mercy they did it right read more

Great food and great location! It is located outside of the downtown area, but is right on the river and has a great outdoor seating area. Service was pretty good - the wait staff was nice and helpful, but did seem to disappear for a bit. The food was delicious. We started out the onion rings and they were some of the best I've had! I chose the Haymaker for my dinner - a fettuccine alfredo dish with broccoli, spinach and mushroom, which was delicious. Would definitely come back. read more

Stopped in Fri night on St Patty's day. Have gone there for corned beef and cabbage for years. Being Lent, I decided on the mess of Perch. Food and service was outstanding. The atmosphere and staff really gave it a festive ambiance and I left feeling Irish and well fed. Thank you Clementines. read more

Disappointed ( baked potato was over microwaved, cold and unsalted skin) asked for " butter, sour cream and chives" okay says waitress. What arrives; whole uncut "microwaved" over cooked no foil or salted skin potato no chives, two tabs of chilled butter packet of sour cream" Rude impatient waitress, food was okay. The onion rings were cold but delicious. read more

Ok wow! THE MOST HORRIBLE MEAL I HAVE SERIOUSLY EVER HAD. I mean there are NO words. They are "known" for their onion rings and they sucked! Drinks you ask? Sucked? Service? Sucked. Dinner? SUCKED! Cold, cold and cold and almost raw and just plain horrible. Never again. Yellow cheese OMG! Not that that artificial coloring isn't enough, .....was cold and stiff and the perch was cold and stiff. Never again. PS back in the day it was ok now it is just as you can guess"sucks". Goodbye forever. Rather give my money to a good cause. read more

All was good including portions. Definitely will not leave hungry. Nice change from town. Pretty much everything you need and quick service. The ambiance was fine -no views-will be back. read more

Food is always consistently good. Service is great, and they always add a personal touch. The view is cool too.

Nice restaurant located in the marina. Because of this it can get crowded and you may have to wait for a table. I think that anyone should be able to find something on the menu that you would like, not just typical bar food. They have a good selection of craft beer, domestic beer and cocktails. Everything we tried was good and service was very good. I would recommend this if you're in the area. read more

Location: Right on the water. Indoor dining has a nice view, outdoor dining has a great view + cool breeze. Drinks: My iced tea was good, and my group really enjoyed their beverages (though I did hear the Grasshopper was too sweet). Food: No complaints from my group. I had the Fiesta Salad both times, and it was delicious! The onion rings are the best I've ever had, and they re-heat pretty well too. read more

This place is really odd and has some weird choices in almost all the dishes. The meals will appear to be normal but there is always some wacky shit that will be with your meal. read more

The perch is filled with bones. It's probably catfish or Asian silver carp. There might be something worth ordering here, I haven't found it after 3 times. I went along with the group decision to go here, but never again. Heston Supper Club serves perch without the bones. read more

This was a great lunch spot! Melissa was our server and she was a true professional. I'm glad we took her recommendation to order onion rings. The perch was perfect and the chicken crab sandwich was delicious. Next time we'll try to save room for dessert. read more

Great spot for lunch this past weekend. Amazing selection of teas. My wife had the chicken salad and I head the French dip. Both were awesome. They seemed to be a little short staffed but service was excellent nonetheless. read more

Been eating there my whole life. Never had a bad meal. Great view, nice place. Getting expensive however.

Do NOT order the perch sandwich- or nothing sandwich 4 tiny pieces of perch for 15 bucks. Try something else - the beer was cold at least.

Food & bartender were good ,but our waitress Deana made the whole experience not good because of her bad attitude and unfriendliness !! Acted like we were a bother .The people next to us got up and left because of her . read more

This used to be one of my go-to establishments in this area. Pre-pandemic I would have given it a 5 star rating. Oh how the mighty have fallen. Since the pandemic I have been there 7 or 8 times. The service has fallen off markedly. Lots of times i notice everyone staring at their empty glasses. Keeping soft drinks and water full is the responsibility of the wait staff, not the kitchen. To the kitchen, every time I see a steak that is usually overcooked. Prime Rib should pull apart with a knife, not be cut apart with a circular saw. I understand that things are different now, but, I'm not planning on going back anytime soon. Good reputations take a long time to build, and a short time destroy. read more

Deana did a great job for lunch today at Clementines! Food was all hot and tasty! Outside dining was too busy by enjoyed lunch inside read more

We were visiting for a couple days to go fishing on a charter and needed some lunch before we went out on the water. We came in on the Sunday of Memorial Day weekend and sat on the patio. It was decently busy but we were sat right away. They had $5 mimosas and brunch available but we opted for their standard menu. I ordered the fiesta taco salad with fajita chicken and enjoyed it. The chips seemed a bit stale so I didn't end up eating those. Their Strawberry Patch salad looked amazing so I'd get that next time if I were returning. We got all of our food and drinks quickly but once we were done it took about 15 minutes for our waitress to bring us the bill. I'd recommend Clementines Too but would be best if you're able to hang out without any time constraints. read more

When you go, you must try their onion rings. Great selection of food and drinks great view of the boats coming and going. Might have a little wait time. read more

I've been going to Clementines since I was eating off the kids menu. The food is delicious and consistent and the service is genuine. It's a go to place for when I have visitors from out of town because nothing disappoints. French onion soup, onion rings (and all the ranch), perch sandwich, and the haymaker are stand outs for me! read more

Nice location on the river. Nice ambiance. Poor food. I've gone several times because others like it, but I've never found anything to like except the onion rings. read more
