Review of South of Nick's Mexican Kitchen + Bar

110 N El Camino Real, San Clemente, CA 92672

Overall Rating

Review


The wait staff, manager and kitchen are amazingly supportive with full notification and personal food delivery from the manager. Dedicated fryer for tortilla chips, delivered immediately upon seating with two salsas and a bean dip which are all outstanding. The chicken enchiladas combo platter with beans and rice were fantastic, the salsa verde has just enough kick. Ingredients are fresh and locally sourced, Sysco does not deliver here ;). The cocktails are made with freshly squeezed juices. The ambiance was top notch. We were served hot hand towels after our dinner and before dessert … which was no afterthought! Think caramel flan meets crème brûlée with a cheesecake texture topped with fresh berries and candied pecans … we will be dreaming about this place … and I’m not even GF!
