South of Nick's San Clemente | Mexican Kitchen + Bar

I don’t believe this is accurately marked. They do not have a dedicated fryer or appliances. I’ve gone to south of nicks for years now and no longer eat the chips or really anything other than guacamole and bring my own chips from home, as I always end up sick from cross contamination Please look into this !! This is false information which could cause people to get sick

Shane was soooo attentive and helpful. Walked us through the menu as it pertained to allergies and was constantly checking in with us throughout the meal. He was coming by to refill drinks and inform on the meal status quite often. All the food was delicious! The fish tacos were with blackened halibut and a treat. The carnitas were fork-tender and a very nice portion size. Chips and salsa were good too. They’re decently good with gluten and dairy sensitivities and my peanut allergy was a non-issue. The dining room was a bit loud but not intolerable. Everything was clean, the decor nice, and the bathrooms in good shape. Street parking.

We came here last night without reservations and were seated immediately. Our server, Viviana, was one of the best servers we’ve ever had. I am gluten free and she guided me through the menu and told me what I could or couldn’t have. I ordered the Mahi tacos and she had the chef do a lettuce wrap for me! It was excellent. We also had the flan which was out of this world. Wish we lived here because we would be here all the time!
