Take out service was friendly and fast First time I have been here. and ordered the tuna bowl. It was great and the place was doing a lively business. I will be back soon and eat in. Nice atmosphere inside and out, extensive menu and good local beer selection read more

Awesome seafood spot near the beach! Fish and Chips again, who would have thought? Light and crispy, but this place uses the same batter on their fries, what a gamechanger! More surface area = more crunchy fish/fries! The line was super long, usually a good sign. Nice beach vibes, I'll definitely be back! read more

Seasurf Fish - Fish and Chips! - Seafood Near Me - San Clemente, California

This place has great food but the service every time is basically non existent. We went for lunch and there was a large line that really didn't move quickly at all. The server/person at the register was in no rush to take an order. Someone sat at the bar area and she immediately went to take their order even though there was at least 20 people in line and we were at the register just waiting as she got these people their drinks. I think this place needs more staff at both of their locations. The attitude is lackadaisical and the person at the register at both locations often seems as though they are overwhelmed and upset that people are even there to order. Get more help! read more

Busy spot during lunch but the wait wasn't too long. You order first at the counter and you're given a number and seat yourself. We opted to sit outside as it was nice out. The portion sizes are large. Food was flavored well. For the poke bowl, the rice to protein ratio was off as had too much rice. Plus only a few pieces of uni. I like that they have non alcoholic beer available read more

Loved the salmon rice greens combo so much I may never eat salmon anywhere else again. They bring your food to you either in the back or on the front street. Very casual. Seaside decore. There was a short line but the kind, warm staff moved it along. read more

Loved the Fish Tacos! We stopped on our way to San Diego. I got the Classic Fish Tacos and my wife tried the grilled. Both were amazing with lots of flavor. The chips and salsa were also very good. The service was good and there is plenty of patio seating. Parking is another story. There is limited parking in the lot, so park where you can find it around the restaurant. Overall a great place to dine. read more

Oh man, did that ever hit the spot! I ordered the grilled fish tacos and they were some of the best I've ever had. The portions I thought were very generous. Service was friendly and prompt. If you get here around the lunch hour parking is next to impossible and once you do find it, be prepared to walk and to wait. It's a hotspot and worth the wait. I'm looking forward to returning. It's a nice place to stop and break up the drive on the way from LA to SD. read more

I came here on Memorial Day for the happy hour! I love the happy deals here ESPECIALLY the oysters! The oysters tasted really fresh and were sweet. I also really liked the ceviche as well. Definitely a great spot to grab a bite to eat. The workers were all super helpful and friendly! Inside it is a little smaller so if you have a big group at peak hour it might be hard to find a table. read more

The Boulder and I rolled in on a suspiciously perfect Monday afternoon--clear skies, good vibes, and my dog in tow (a true critic.. of me). My tall Sequoia of a date did the classic awkward shuffle at the front like, "hi, can the dog come through to the patio without causing a federal incident?" The guy we asked looked like we had just asked him to solve climate change (bc he was a customer...), but he very politely redirected us to the cashier, who was lovely. So: Kindness: 10/10. Confusion: also 10/10. ~Balance~ Now the food. The Boulder orders a fish burrito. I go for the chimichurri salmon bowl with quinoa because I, too, enjoy pretending I have my life together. BUT. The boulder also then orders clam chowder--a surprise, a moment of elation, but at the same time... skeptical? Sir? I have lamented over my favorite chowder like a woman waiting for her husband to come back from battle. Were your ears too high in elevation for my voice to reach? ANYWAYS. Let's talk about the clam chowder, because this is where things get serious. I have grown up eating clam chowder in Santa Cruz (my hometown, my birthplace, my origins). I have known greatness (shoutout to Stagnaro Bros., the downstairs fish market). So when I tell you I approached this chowder with standards, I need you to understand the weight of that statement. I put my spoon in. It did not sink. At that moment, I knew. This was not soup. This was a lifestyle. A structural entity. And it was GOOD. Creamy, thick, unapologetically clam-forward. Not quite Santa Cruz enlightenment, clouds-parting-angels-singing, but honestly? Strong contender. We're talking solid top 4-5 chowders of my life, and I do not say that lightly. Now, my salmon bowl? Good. Respectable. Salmon = crispy, quinoa = doing quinoa things (why is it always slightly annoying to eat??). Chimichurri good. The fish burrito (from my observational research + dog validation panel): packed, flaky, generous. My dog approved, which frankly is the highest honor available. Overall: Great food, great vibes, excellent chowder, and quality time with the Tall Sequoia Boulder Man™ on a random Monday. Plus points--chips looked fried on site :D read more

We LOVE Seasurf! It was our first time at this specific location and the amazing quality & flavor remained the same. We got there right when they opened and it was a little busy but our food still came out quick. It was our first time trying the lobster pomodoro pasta and it was so delicious & fresh. My absolute favorite is their north shore garlic shrimp plate, hands down 10/10 every time. Every single thing on this plate is packed with flavor, down to the pickled veggies and mac salad, it is a must have! read more

It was my first time at this laid-back and casual seafood eatery. Luckily, it was HH. I placed my order at the front counter then sat down until the server brought my food. There was a good menu selection with decent prices. I appreciated that the staff were helpful and friendly. The service was pretty quick too. And WOWEE, my classic fish tacos and corn elote were absolutely delicious! I'm definitely coming back!! Highly recommend to the Yelp Community :-) read more

I had a terrific weekend lunch at Seasurf Fish, but my guests' experience was mixed. We started with the Poke Nachos and there were great (4.5/5) - good amount of poke and tasted fresh. I had the Chimichurrri Shrimp Burrito (5/5 - huge and tasted amazing). I added some heat by trying their three hot sauces (yellow, green and orange). All were great. I also tried the Poke Bowl (4.5/5), Lahaina Shrimp Garlic Noodles (2/5 - shrimp is good but pasta was not), and the Teriyaki Salmon Bowl (3/5 - tiny portion of salmon). So it was a mixed experience. Nice outdoor seating to enjoy the day. Service was ok. I will be back for that burrito. read more

Found myself in San Clemente on a sunny Saturday afternoon with a buddy and was craving seafood. Locals raved about Seasurf fish so naturally we needed to check them out. There was a long line out the door at 12:15 pm which was a promising sign. I ordered a half dozen fresh Oysters along with the Hawaiian North Shore Garlic shrimp. The oysters were fresh and delicious. There was a hiccup with my shrimp order and it ended up taking 30 minutes for my food to come after I flagged this to the staff. This was unfortunate but they did offer me a complimentary soda after I requested this due to the inconvenience. The dish itself was very good. The shrimp was tender and flavorful and I did feel like I was back in Hawaii. Just a note, there is a sweetness to the dish that was unique as I was used to more of a garlic butter flavor base. It was still delicious. Overall this was a fun experience and glad I got to try Seasurf. read more

Looking for a good spot to eat lunch and we happened to drive by Seasurf which was super busy and looked good! Parked in the neighboring lot with free parking and got to try the fish tacos! They were fresh, good portion size for a lunch, and not a bad price either for San Clemente. It's in a great area right next to the Main Street so you can hop over there for some dessert after :) read more

It's always a good start when you look at the menu and you have absolutely no idea what you want- simply because you want it all. Everything we ordered was stellar. Quality of fish felt like they just caught some in their backyard. Nachos were crisp. Uni bowl had so much umami. Tacos were nice and crispy (shrimp imo was better than the classic). I recommend to anyone visiting San Clemente for first time. read more

I loved the Fish Tacos, Poki Bowls and Clam Chowder. Nice place in the Laguna area. Had a blast here this past weekend with my girl, and her friends. Fish is fresh and crispy on tacos. Clam Chowder is FIRE. Poki Bowls were solid. I will be back again. read more

Seasurf is perfect for a casual, fresh, seafood meal! The inside is small with counter seating and a counter to order at. Outside there is patio seating with heaters that is dog-friendly! My family always loves to get the poke nachos and clam chowder. The fish tacos were just okay, they definitely needed salsa added for a little extra flavor. read more

Food is very good but the service needs improvement. It was a busy Saturday lunch rush, but the line moved extremely slow. I decided to place an online order while waiting in the line instead. I discovered that the reason the line is so slow is because the cashier is also the bartender. This is incredibly inefficient. We ordered the original poke bowl and fish tacos. The quality and taste was very good. read more

Seasurf Fish - Original poke bowl and fish tacos - Seafood Near Me - San Clemente, California

My cousin and I stopped by for lunch because the seafood looked super fresh in the pictures, and Seasurf Fish didn't disappoint! It wasn't super packed for a late lunch on a Friday and we were able to snag a table outside since we brought our pups along. We decided to go for a bowl of clam chowder, spicy poke nachos, and the North Shore garlic shrimp platter. I loved every single dish, especially how fresh the tuna poke was. They really load up the nachos with imitation crab, spicy mayo, and lots and lots of tuna! The garlic shrimp was juicy and crispy, and it tasted similar to a Korean Chinese dish called kkanpoongi. No complaints here because I looooove kkanpoongi. The rice was quite mushy/overcooked, but I loved the side dishes the platter comes with. Clam chowder was also solid. You order at the counter, get a number, water/utensils are self-serve, and your food is brought out to your table by the workers. It's a typical fast-casual spot where the service wasn't mind-blowingly amazing, but it wasn't outright rude either. All in all, I liked our experience here and will be back to grab a casual lunch if I'm in the area! read more

We stopped by this casual seafood spot on a Saturday that had a line out the door. The restaurant itself is small and includes primarily outdoor seating and a small section indoor for bar service. You order with the cashier and the food is brought to you. Although the line moved a bit slow, once we ordered the wait time wasn't too bad. We sat in the outdoor patio, where you'll find water, condiments, and utensils. We tried the hot lobster roll sandwich which comes with slaw and fries. The lobster itself was plentiful and delicious. We didn't care for the dressing on the slaw and the fries were good. We asked the cashier if she preferred the shrimp or fish tacos and she reccomended the fish. The tacos are $5 each, but if you get the plate you'll get two tacos and chips and salsa for $9.99. The tacos were good and the battered fish was nicely sized. We were just missing the tradition creme sauce typically used. We also tried the Guava Cider which we enjoyed. Overall, worth a visit. Great service and delicious food! read more

Wow! I'm obsessed with this place. I've been wanting to go for a while and finally made it a point to stop by and I was blown away. To start, I love the vibe of the restaurant. Super casual and inviting with a small bar with a selection of tap beers and a showcase with fresh oysters and poke. The patio has ample seating so don't let the inside sway you! Our food was incredible. The fish was perfectly fried, flaky tender, and flavorful. The calamari wasn't my favorite as I found the breading to be grainy but it was not chewy and a generous size. We took home poke nachos for my family and it was huge and delicious! We are all so happy to have found a restaurant with fresh delicious food at a reasonable price with nice employees and a great selection of drinks. Definitely a new staple. read more

You order at the counter and they'll bring you the food. There's not much seating indoors, so on a cold night, this isn't the best place for sure. The Parmesan fries were ok, but nothing amazing. The Atlantic salmon was rather flavorless. The "salad" was like salsa tomatoes with some green stuff. It was ok and decently priced. But 3 stars is truly what it's about. Nothing great. Nothing bad. read more

Came here for a quick snack prior to a wedding and we went a tad overboard with our "snack" that led us to a bloated food coma event afterwards. We ordered the - Calamari: crispy, flavorful - Calm chowder: lots of good pieces of chunks and creamy - Oysters: refreshing - Poke nachos: fun to eat but very heavy feeling afterwards. Great sauce and toppings. - Fish and chips: the fish was the winner here. Lightly battetered and flaky. Not dry. Not salty. Perfectly made. Wait time wasn't bad. Seating is limited. People don't clean up after themselves. Very packed throughout the day. Can't recall the prices but I'm sure it was worth it. read more

We came back to Seasurf for dinner tonight for my husband's fish and chips fix. I had the teriyaki salmon bowl. It was not as good as the last few times and the salmon was thin as paper and a bit fishy. The rice was undercooked. It was still hard. My husband, of course, had the fish and chips. The fish they use for this fry fish was nice and flaky, we thought they did a good job on this dish. It did tale a very long time for this order to come out. I was almost done with my dinner by the time she brought it out. The fries were hard. Cole slaw was too sweet. But the time we were done with our order, the line was all the way out the door. 3.5/5 read more

I didn't think I could find a new fish taco to overtake Rubio's but I'm happy to report that Seasurf has a solid classic fish taco amongst other incredible dishes! We tried so many things - the poke bowl, steamed clams, calamari, garlic noodles with shrimp, clam chowder, and of course, the fish tacos. The calamari was coated in corn meal which was not my favorite but the rest of the dishes were worth the calories and the drive! Service is pretty non-existent because it's a self serve counter basically but they do take your order and bring your food out for you. The downside to this place is definitely the parking (mainly street parking with a very small parking lot), followed closely by the tiny amount of seating at this place. It isn't ideal for large groups but if you're looking for some great quality seafood, seasurf is the way to go! read more

I do like the blackened fish burrito I have had in the past. Today I tried the shrimp burrito. I am not sure the shrimp was cooked through and like the fish burrito they do go heavy on the rice in their burritos. The other flavors in the burrito are good. The Wife had the North Shore Garlic Shrimp and that shrimp was over cooked. She did eat it without complaint and she liked the pickled veggies and the rice. I will go again as I have had more good experiences than today. I'll just try something else. Go. It's Worth A Shot. HAVE FUN!!! read more

This place definitely lived up to the solid reviews it has. The fish is super fresh and while the wait was long, it wasn't that bad. We got the spicy poke bowl and the original poke bowl to go.

Located on the top of the hill in downtown San Clemente, the restaurant has a good view of the whole town and offers relaxing sea breeze on the hot days of summer. The place has seating for around 60 people and parking for 10 cars. The ordering process is quite simple: you place your order at the front counter and the staff will bring the food to your table. We ordered the following items: Cioppino: the portion was pretty generous for the price, with fresh seafood and nicely flavored tomato based sauce, light and slightly sweet. The noodles were al dente with very nice texture. Maui Shrimp: the shrimps were lightly caramelized and went very well with the seasoned rice, the sour and sweet brine from preserved onion and sliced cucumber greatly enhanced the overall taste of the dish. A great dining place with excellent service and reasonable prices for what you are getting. read more
