Reviews for Our Place an American Bistro in San Clemente, CA

Hands down, best turkey I've ever had...thick sliced, very moist and flavorful. The entire plate was scrumptious and truly... perfect for Thanksgiving, this year. I wasn't sure I wouldn't miss cooking and having the "traditional" dinner, but, theatmosphere and food made me forget all that doubt. Ive had food from restaurants before, serving large groups (the same menu)and often, you can tell because its just not, "fresh out of the oven" tasting, not hot enough, as though it's sat around, inthe hustle-bustle, etc. I made several comments of praise to our waiter, from my first course(amazing salad with pomegranateseeds and loved the vinaigrette) to the main course, and the dessert. I couldn't help it! So, I highly recommend it for anyoneto try, next Thanksgiving and if im staying local, i look forward to it as well. And, will be sampling their regular menu nowthat they've "wowed" me with how they handled Thanksgiving! Thanks, very much! Read more

Excellent meal, great service and dog friendly patio. The server even brought water for our dog.

So this used to be sun dried tomato, but now it's called "Our Place". We've eaten there 3 times generally the food is pretty... good however we've noticed it's inconsistent? First time was very good I had the fried chicken sandwich with the house saladwhich was delicious, my companion had a large beet salad also good. Went back later for dinner and I decided on the same saladas an entree with chicken added, obviously a different chef and size and taste was poor, definitely not the same. My wife hadsliders which were 3 teeny tiny dry patties a pickle slice and were very poor in appearance and taste. Went back again anddecided to order the burger and side salad, the burger advertised at half pound was tiny and about the size of an "in and out"burger but not as good. I asked for medium and it was overcooked to the point of being dry with no seasoning. I requestedgrilled onion and was up charged $2? My wife ordered the half chicken sandwich and salad combo which was more expensive than ifshe ordered the whole sandwich with salad, the caveat being you would get a larger salad, she didn't it was quit small, samesize as my burger with salad which before the up charge was $1 less . We had observed on the first visit that that others whoordered this got a much larger salad to go with a half sandwich, so basically your paying more for a half sandwich and saladthan if you ordered the whole sandwich???? Can only assume different chefs? Overall the service was good the food reasonablepriced but inconsistent in quality and portion. Would like to try some other dishes and hope we get the "good" chef. Probablywon't be back for a while until they get their act together. Read more

I went with my mom and sister, (she was visiting). This has been a go-to spot for my family for years. We were horribly... disappointed! The service was horrible, as was the food! They changed the menu and many of our favorites were gone! So sad. Read more

We loved Sundried Tomato!!!! Food constantly good. Since new owners have taken over, food is dismal at best. Ordered to go Well... done burger... Burger delivered RARE. Ordered side salad with NO hearts of palm and guess what?., Hearts of Palm all over mysalad with a very watery green salad dressing. To say we do not love the new restaurant and will no longer frequent thismediocre at best restaurant. We did attempt to call and speak with the restaurant mgr who was n/a. Instead we had to speak withthe mgr of the chefs which was another laugh because there was nothing he wanted to do or could do. He told me to call backFriday and speak with General mgr Jenny M. Duly noted and will do. Read more

The service was friendly Kyla did a good job attending us. The food was good And the bread tasted fresh I liked it.

This place has gone slightly down hill. This was once a favorite but the bar tenders seem preoccupied and forgetful. The food... still tastes fine and the lobster omlet was very nice and they did not skimp on the lobster, but plating seemed almost schoolcafeteria like. Prices are $10 to $20 a plate on average.

The best vegetarian lasagna I?ve ever had. If you want excellent food and great friendly service - look no further. Awesome... patio with lounge chairs and a fire place to relax and keep you warm while enjoying a nice meal. I?d give this place 10 stars ifI could. Read more
