  Food was good as usual, but service was very slow today. They were asking the bartender to take all the table and he couldn't keep up. People were getting up from tables to get help. A table next to us was seated and finished their drinks before someone came to take their order. They never asked us we wanted another drink and we did.

  Maybe it was because we showed up an hour before closing but this was my worst experience at a sun-dried. Floors were dirty, food was not fresh. I ordered a full rack of ribs and got a half rack. The ribs were lukewarm at best and the shoestring fries were cold and old. My date had an equally disappointing experience with her mushroom risotto and side of green beans. I will only be eating at the San Juan location from now on.

  This location is marginal. It's in a part of San Clemente that has nothing else available so people go there. Thankfully I live closer to downtown San Clemente where there is actually good restaurants. I went for happy hour yesterday and the bartender was below average and that's being nice. I will go back only because it's the only place in the area. I would have to describe it as completely under whelming

  The 3 stars is for the quality of service but not the taste of food. It’s clean restaurant and not busy, especially on the Tuesday afternoon I went there. I ordered for my daughter from the kids menu and was disappointed by the full menu. To be fair, I’m quite picky and I don’t like bland food and it all tasted bland to me. For a restaurant with everything based on “sun dried tomatoes” including a their soup that costs $9 for a bowl, I was expecting them to have some decent grilled cheese on their regular menu. I ordered from the kids menu instead and they literally brought me a regular grilled cheese I could get at Panera bread next door. No apologies needed but this place may have 5 stars, it doesn’t mean it suits everyone. I appreciate the great service but I will stick to Nordstrom’s Cafe on days they have tomato soup for me to dip my white cheddar grilled cheese in :)

  Food is always good but the People are just stuck up and rude. The waitresses will talk condescendingly to you as if you work there. Apparantly now they don't give you the main thing we go there for (Sundried Tomato Butter and Bread) Unless you ask for it, which I knew was B.S. they are just judgmental and arrogant. To be honest the food is not good enough for me to miss never going here again, If you have a better experience that would be good so try out at your own peril, It's not well priced either, 15 dollar burger.
