This location hung up the phone on me after me telling a female worker who answered the phone that they made my order wrong and I told my order number. She refused to tell me her name and claimed that she was the manager after I asked her for her name again she hung on me then she decided not to answer any more calls. Till she answered my call and said that I had a drive thru order and hung up on me again. Worst service please do not eat here! read more

Alright dude this is ridiculous why do u guys say ur open till 4am and aren't even open till 12 wtf is that about? Every time I look for places that are open it ALWAYS says McDonald's is open... yet every single time I go, guess what? It's closed. It's a joke at this point read more

All vegetarian: when the McPlant come out even though it saying it vegetarian it really isn't if they're grilling it on the same grill as the burgers. Their website even said they were. Also MCDs if your going to release a beyond or impossible burger for vegetarians. Change your fry recipe and take the beef flavoring off of it. Don't be like Burger King in the beginning. Your just going to get a law suit at some point. If you continue to grill it on the same grill as the regular burger. Think first before you get someone sick. read more

It's been a couple of years since I've been to Mickey Ds. Was on the freeway and wanted something quick. My expectations are low so let's drive thru and be on my way. Bad mistake. Not good. 2 cheeseburgers, how do you screw that up? The drive thru lanes were long so at least the food would be hot and fresh. WRONG. Cold burgers, aging nicely like a fine Cabernet? Way too salty, much like the Pacific Ocean that is a mile away. Inedible. Stale buns, almost like the stale bread my mother would break up and toss on the lawn for the birds. No bottom buns, both burgers had bun tops on top and bottom. Some people might prefer their burgers this way. Reminds me of the muffin top episode on Seinfeld.... Took 1 bite of each. Waste of money and time...used to love Mickey's as a kid, the quality was so much better then. What happened?? read more

I highly recommend McDonald's for it's for convenient locations and quick service. But I'm traveling around showing houses and driving from city to city. I sometimes need a quick drink, dessert or meal. The McDonald's app is a fantastic way to earn points and have my order ready quickly charged to my credit card on file. I look forward to visiting with McDonald in the near future, sincerely thank you. Kevin Smith. Realtor. read more

the Hispanic workers are VERY rude to their black employees. as a uber driver waiting for my food, I saw how they treated the black emplpyre. not cool read more

The manager working here tonight 04/24/2024 @ 9:47 PM is the biggest Homie I've ever encountered at any, and every McDonald's I've ever been to? He was super helpful, polite, went completely out of his way to help me and a genuinely cool ass dude! He deserves a raise, not any type of raise, A BIG ASS RAISE! I used to absolutely hate this McDonald's because of shitty customer service, but this man completely changed my attitude/feelings about this place and I mean that in a good way!!! How do I give 10 stars?!? read more

Hash browns 3.29 plus tax. A little excessive. Thanks Newsom. Fast food is too expensive. My wife and I can eat at Islands restaurant for about the same read more

This place always says the ice cream machine isn't working if you go after 5 pm. They are pretty much hiding it from the managers and pretend the machine doesn't work. If they are doing that I'd imagine they are doing worse things! Avoid this McDonald's! read more

Guess what, profit over people does not work!!! This company stood for quality and respect now it too busy trying to profit over people! Case and point look at the gloves they have it kne but I had a girl take case and handle my food While they didn't even change or wash gloves that cross contamination they got my order wrong anyways so I had to take another 15 min to park..... the food quality is horrible!!!! read more

McDonald's - a hand holding a container of french fries - Fast Food Near Me - San Clemente, California

Had an Egg MC Muffin today. Egg Rubbery, ham tough, worst part Hash Brown cold.

If I could leave no stars I would. I ordered a small caramel macchiato and just got to work. Took a sip of the drink and something came into my mouth that was NOT a piece of ice. Low and behold, it was a random string from what I would assume came off one of their washcloths..... -___- what in the actual fuck... Here am I thinking "yasss I get to sip something caramel-y... NOT... read more

McDonald's - Fast Food Near Me - San Clemente, California

Rating is based solely on their small bathroom which was clean enough but there was no baby changing area. There were two stalls so I thought it was maybe in the larger stall but it wasn't. One sink and air dryer only for your hands. read more

The gentleman with tattoos who sounds really depressed is very rude and doesn't get your whole order right after repeating it numerous times. The service here is disappointing read more

If I could give them 0/5 I would. We waited in line last night for 20+ minutes, thought that they were making to order since it was around 11PM which was alright. We order 2 burgers and a mcchicken both with fries. The fountain didn't work and they didn't have any tea currently, once again, fine. We pull up I give my card to the cashier who verbalized our order back to me, rings us up and gives us the food. No receipt. We get home which is right down the road (maybe five minutes) our fries were SO COLD and they gave us FIVE mcchickens... My husband calls this location to see what can be done and the woman on the phone states "I don't have f****** time for this" and hangs up on him. They then proceed to not answer the phone the next two times he called. So unprofessional. read more

Incredible customer service!! Alyssa and the entire team are very welcoming. It was early in the morning and they were on top of everything. The restaurant was very clean and food was great! Thank you, will definitely be back :) read more

Cold fries , no sauce for nuggets or ketchup for fries in my order , "sweet tee" tasted like tap water , nothing sweet about it and it wasn't even the color of tee. Easily one of the worst McDonald's in the area read more

Not crowded two cars in drive through, asked for tomato and onion on egg mcmuffin. Their response we don't do that. Just lost $9.00 due to poor customer service. . read more

I would honestly give this rating a zero if I could. I've been coming to McDonald's in San Clemente off Pico for years. Today was particularly disgusting. I ordered a sausage egg McMuffin. When I opened the package the bun was wet on the bottom, like really wet. after eating halfway through I realized there was no egg yolk just all egg white and it was gross and sloppy egg white. It's not worth it for me to turn around and go back to McDonald's to complain because I was already 5 miles north when I discovered this. All I can say is wtf McDonald's on San Clemente. What happened to your quality control. Disgusting! read more

so so so good!! the lady at drive through caught some attitude when we asked to give us a sec but the food made up for that LOL. Everything was fresh and hot, and accurate!!! Great service team. def my fav McDonald's experience. read more

Went to this Mc Donald's to get breakfast and they had terrible customer service. Rude employees.

This store takes so long to get the food ready. I believe they need to hire more people or get training. I got 2 cheeseburgers that tasted like cardboard, the bread was old. Often times the drive thru is the only option because they close the lobby. read more

This McDonald's was a mess. I came in today to order a Big Mac meal. It was nearly over $12 with tax. What happened to the prices? I went to full up my drink and there was no lids what's so ever. I received my food then, meanwhile eating so many complaints were happening. I was trying to look for napkins but there wasn't any. I asked a worker and they said " there's napkins by the straws and drinks". There wasn't any the dispenser was empty. To top it off you need to order on the stupid touch screens, what if you want to add or take off certain things from the burger? What a mess. McDonald'swill never get a dime from me again. read more

I'm not sure whom owns this organization or whomever I should speak too, however I arrived at McDonald's @755 waited 12 mints before one of the employees comes out to tell me, they are closed... I requested to speak to a Manager, the Manager whomever was on duty Biger Hispanic guy, told us, and I quote "He doesn't care" attitude, unprofessional, disrespectful, and just wrong I understand it's the holidays everyone would like to get home to their families, however that does not change the fact that you have a job that you get for. read more

We made the most tasteful and delicious appetizer, I'm a greatful of the existence of this one particular mcdondon. I love you McDonald's. :* read more

McDonald's - YUM - Fast Food Near Me - San Clemente, California

See all

Not 24 hours we pulled up at 1:45 and they were closed what a waste of time. Pile of trash mcdonalds

Okay good food, terrible customer service. I worked at McD for 3 years so I know my way around the menu. Ordered sausage muffin, she was rude and kept asking if I wanted egg, no. Sausage muffin does not come with egg. Asked 3 times for hotcakes with sausage. She said it's on the order. I advised her it was not on the order and she replied THATS NOT YOUR ORDER! Quite honestly that was my order in the screen and we had to ask the guy at the window to add it. She wouldn't let us order a water with the order unless a bottle and then they forgot to give us the water. Definitely went back for that haha. Just not a nice woman read more

They forgot my homies Bacon McGrittle They also forgot my frickin Fries yesterday and it makes me sad, my friend was really upset about his missing breakfast, almost in tears #boycottmcdonalds read more

We came to this McDonald's on 05/30/2022 and the service was sub par.. usually it's okay at best with the slight attitude for asking for a specific sauce.. as well with "what's up" response at the drive through ordering station.. just the little things like asking for honey mustang and only getting one for a decent size order.. to when asking for a large fry and it's the amount you get is barely enough to fill a small fry.. to when you open the cup on coke and see at least 1/4 is not filled.. the way I look at it is serve how you'd like to be served no matter the business.. be a decent human being.. y'all can do better than this.. read more

Absolutely the best experience I've had at a McDonald's. You know, just kidding it was horrendous. Absolutely ruined my day. Ordered 3 combos. Got two out of 3 sandwiches, all the fries, and the one drink I ordered they didn't give me. They told me I never ordered it, I even offered to buy one at the window. They hit me with the notorious McDonald's one liner, "our machine is down currently." Thanks for not giving me my coke that I am still desperately wishing for. I'm definitely not lovin' it today. Cowards. read more

Are you kidding me? I ordered on door dash and they sent fries almost empty. The paper bags are sealed so it's impossible that the driver ate them. Horrible service, but I mean it's McDonalds ‍ read more

I will NEVER go back to this McDonalds! Customer Service is invisible amongst the employees and management hides. I ordered a large drink (half Sprite, half Hi-C)) in the drive-thru. First I was told they couldn't do it and when I asked why not the teen then says they could do it but we're going to have to charge me more. Seriously? I asked to speak to a manager which totally surprised him and after 30 seconds he claimed management wasn't available and they were out of Hi-C. Oh Really, all of a sudden they're out??? They lost a customer over such a simple request... read more

+2 stars because of the nice location right off the 5 freeway. I usually always stop here on my way to San Diego. But I encountered one of the rudest employees. His name was Colin. He totally ruined my morning with his haughty, rude, and bitchy attitude. Thanks a lot. I won't be coming here. If I do, definitely avoiding this guy! But all us forgiven because it is after all, McDonald's read more

McDonalds - who hasnt eaten at a McD's before? This particular location is right off the 5 in San Clemente, and quick/easy to get to while traveling. It offers a drive-thru that has two lane option - which on the outside seems cool - but let me tell you the stress/anxiety that comes along with having to choose! Sadly - I chose the wrong lane this time, got behind the slow poke who cant make up their mind, watching the outside lane let two customers thru while I waited for speedy to make up their mind if they wanted to add an apple pie. SO, I finally get my order in, get up to the window and pay, then creep to pickup my order... "Sir, can you pull up to that spot because your hash browns arent ready yet". Oh gosh I hate that. I then pull forward and wait another 5 minutes for them to be brought out to me - watching two cars behind me get their stuff and drive past me. So, Im sitting there feeling like there is no way to get out of there quickly (pretty much the whole reason I went through the drive thru instead of parking and going in). Wondering what magical combination of food did the people who got their orders and passed me by got. Asking myself if that person who was holding me up earlier enjoyed their apple pie (or if they even got it after-all). Thinking that this 5 minutes of wasted time is making me lose countless positions on the freeway.. telling myself that this is punishment for going to McDonalds while trying to lose weight... the crap you ponder in 5 minutes, I tell yah.. "Knock Knock Knock" breaks me out of my daydream.. Here's your order sir.. thanks for waiting. It just seems so anti-climatic. Like, Im excited my food is there, but dang, where is my reward for waiting? No free apple pie? No singing clown with balloons? Just my food and now I can leave? Gosh.. Ok, thanks. So all in all, yeah, this is a McDonalds and yeah, its "fast food" - but not really a 5-Star knock them dead experience and not sure i'll put myself thru this on my next trip to LA. I might just stick to my diet instead. read more

Went in for breakfast and I was assisted by Nancy. Nancy is very highly professional. Communicates well with customers and is very helpful. I wouldn't be surprised if she was Employee of the Year. -the Guy that bought two chicken McGriddles read more

There's nothing worse than bad food on a road trip. Just stopped off at this McDonalds off Ave. Pico and it's been the worst experience at a McDonalds to date. The person who took our order seemed impatient which was uncalled for since it didn't take us long to compete our order. We got our food and got back on the road to find that the sauces were not included for our nuggets nor the straws for our drinks. This McDonald's experience was a SAD MEAL. read more

Hire more workers. Fast food......not, took 40 minutes are you serious? I don't come to McDonald's to sit in a 40 minute line and wait. Seriously terrible pick it up read more

went through drive through tonight around 11:20... i originally just wanted to order fries but they said "we're not doing fries right now" we didn't question anything and just ordered nuggets and 1 apple pie and 1 holiday pie.. but when we got home around 11:40 we looked at the enjoy by date on the apple pie and it was for 10:20 which means it's been sitting out an extra hour old. The holiday pie is stamped enjoy by 11:43 so the apple pie is definitely old and been sitting out. I feel like they should of even served us old food that's been sitting out... read more

service was mid at best ... but i understand the passiveness of a late night fast food joint. i ordered two oreo mcflurries and received two cups of ice cream with oreo crumble on top. i know they were unmixed because they didn't even have the standard mcflurry spoon that attaches to the machine and all of the ice cream was plain. overall, the other reviews are right. worst mcdonald's in the country. read more
