Rare Society San Clemente Beoordelingen
If you want your steak cooked any other way than rare.
Good luck. Our table ordered temperatures from medium well, medium, to medium rare. And all of them came out rare. Maybe that's where they get their name from? Very disappointing. Especially considering they tell you it will take 40 minutes for
We chose Rare Society for our first wedding anniversary.
While the menu may seem traditional in many ways, it offers a unique dining experiences unlike any other. Our waiter, Mark, offered an in-depth insight to the menu, and in doing so, he helped us take advantage of the best culinary experience we'

Food & Drinks Rare Society is one of the few finer dining gems in San Clemente & it absolutely delivers on both flavor & atmosphere. For cocktails, I went with the Wildcard (x2), which was light, refreshing, & downright delicious. It&

My son and his friend went here on September 27 and ordered the $200 steak plate plus other items. I went to his house the next day and had two pieces of steak . That night I went home, I was so dizzy and I did not feel well. Long story short myself

Our service had a poor attitude and personality from the jump. No excitement or enthusiasm, and as it was our first time we were expecting a quick run down of the good options and recommendations, but we never got that. Additionally, our food wasn
Food was extremely disappointing.
It took over an hour to get our main course. The food was saturated with salt, butter, cheese to the point we could barely eat it Way overpriced for the quality. Pricing equivalent to The Ritz or Montage without delivering the quality or view. I w

What should have been a devastating evening was met with
What should have been a devastating evening was met with unexpected compassion from our server Hallie, the manager, and the rest of the staff. On 9/15/25, my husband and I were traveling back to SD from a weekend getaway in the OC. We were very much
In reality, this should be a 4 star review but hear me out.
We were celebrating our 36th wedding anniversary so I wanted something special. If you have read my other reviews, you know my wife loves seafood and I am all about the steak so this was the perfect match. Let's cut to the chase. My wife LOVE
The ambiance and service is amazing here.
The food was good, but the steak a was just okay. We ordered the Parker rolls and the bacon, both which were delicious. We also had the blue crab dip which was really tasty. Our entree was the 40 day dry aged New York and it was just okay. We felt it

Convenient San Clemente location off Del Mar, plenty of free parking in back. Excellent service our waitress was outstanding 5.0. Parker House Dinner Rolls 4.0. Caesar Salad drenched in dressing, excess Parmesan cheese 2.0, our waitress recommended &
My husband , daughter and I have been here twice.
We love this place! Service is + Food is even better โผ If I win the lottery I'll eat here 4-5 times a week Until then it's great for special occasions. Friends from Newport and Irvine make the short trip to enjoy their premium steaks an

Our crew of 11 rolled in deep, and the staff never missed a beat--super friendly and on point the whole time. I went for the 22oz, 35-day aged ribeye, cooked to perfection. It didn't have that signature "funk" of a long dry age, but st
I had a great meal here for my birthday this weekend.
The steak was cooked to perfection. Clean restaurant and nice people work here.
Invited to dinner.
It's best to make a reservation in advance. Accepts walk-ins.. however... you chance being able to sit at the bar. Upon arrival I contacted the restaurant and we spoke with Nate the Mgr. a friend spoke highly about the restaurant due to Nate m
Over-priced for the quality.
Wood fired steaks are definitely not for me so the flavor was not up to par compared to other high end steakhouses similarly priced. Service good but kitchen is slow. Not much available for appetizers , good salads unfortunately over dressed. Better

The food in ambience was absolutely amazing! Our server was incredible so friendly and more than willing to take photos for my birthday. Thank you so much for making my day so incredible! I do have to mention that if you do bring in a cake, they do
Rare Society in San Clemente is the real deal.
As someone who has eaten steak all over the world (and sits in the top 20% of Google steakhouse reviewers), I'd put this in my top five--easily. We ordered the Associate board and added the Wagyu Denver, which ended up being the absolute star o
Probably the best filet mignon we've both ever had.
Warning: The steak sauce is more like Heinz 57, rather than A1. Don't pay $5 for it if you don't like Heinz 57 (which I don't). We got the wedge salad and mentioned we were splitting it and they brought it out in two bowls, which was v
The service here from the hosting staff is messy at best.
All food is drowning in butter or oil. The waiter said the Denver steak would be best served medium and then proceeded to have it prepared rare. Highly overpriced and no offer of compensation for waiting to be seated almost 20 minutes after our reser
Food was awesome service was good.
Steaks were cooked perfectly and actually served hot!
It wasn't worth the hype IMHO.
We were seated in a super dark corner & it was noisy. We got the steak board & various apps & sides. I asked for the steaks to be cooked medium rare and our waitress strongly suggested I do medium "per the chefs suggestion" so I
This place looks great, but that's where it ended for me.
Food and drinks were just average, not great especially at this price point. My family got dressed up for this place to find people dressed in shorts and flip flops, not to mention how the staff was dressed. Service was okay, but definitely not up
Great food and service.
We came for our anniversary and the food was so good! I will say, everything is quite rich so order with caution. And it is quite expensive. It's for sure a spot I'll come to only for special occasions.
5 Star service excellent cuisine Maybe San Clemente's.
..... Best steakhouse We go when we ANY special occasion ( feel good , feel bad ....or?) Awesome Make Reservations
Do not go here.
Do not bring your kids here. We called to make a reservation and told them on the phone we had 2 kids. We were not warned that it was not a kid friendly environment. Essentially, our daughter dropped two pieces of silverware within 2 minutes of bein
The best meal of our life!
We had the most wonderful time celebrating our friend's 65th birthday at Rare Society in San Clemente. We were greeted with a smile and every single employee made us feel special. Several people wished my friend a "happy birthday". We
Can't cook a steak
This restaurant is way too loud. Waiter had to yell through the cacophony. Steak overcooked, had to send back. I watched my wife eat then 15 minutes later she watched me eat. No complementary dessert after steak screw up. Steak too salty. Overpriced.
If you like water in your cocktailsโฆ
I have visited rare society twice and just getting around to writing this review. The first visit was NYE and it was awesome! At that time it was difficult to get a reservation within a few weeks so we really lucked out. The service, food and cocktai
HIgh-end steak house
Newly opened very large building with two floors for dining, a bar, and a small patio up front. Parking is difficult. It's really noisy, so be prepared to shout for a couple of hours. The service is very good, the decor is a little over-the-top
Best steakhouse in San Clemente!!!
We had a table for 4, upstairs near the outside. The restaurant is gorgeous. Our server, Becky was not only extremely knowledgeable but very fun! The 4 of us chose to get the executive board of steaks, Caesar salads w/pecorino, asparagus, whipped

Stel, Peter heeft een geweldige ochtend en besluit zijn drie vrienden mee te nemen naar Rare Society San Clemente om 18:00 uur diezelfde dag.
Hij controleert de website van het restaurant en ziet dat er geen reserveringen beschikbaar zijn. Vervolgens bekijkt hij de Rare Society San Clemente pagina op AppointmentTrader, maar ontdekt dat er ook geen aanbiedingen van andere gebruikers zijn.
Daar komt het door de community aangedreven biedproces van pas.
Peter kan een bod plaatsen op AppointmentTrader. Dit bod dient als beloning voor ieder communitylid dat helpt om de reservering te regelen. AT stuurt dan notificaties naar ervaren gebruikers die mogelijk kunnen helpen.
Stapsgewijs Proces
1.) Beloning Instellen (Bod)
* AppointmentTrader gebruikt historische data om een redelijk beloningsbedrag aan te bevelen voor het regelen van een reservering โ stel, $100.
* Peter wil er graag heen, dus verhoogt hij het bod (de beloning) naar $200.
* Op dit punt bestaat de reservering nog niet.
2.) Een Communitygebruiker Neemt het Bod Op
* FluffyStar64, een ervaren AT-gebruiker, heeft veel succes met het regelen van reserveringen en ontvangt weinig terugbetalingsverzoeken. Zij ontvangen een melding van Peterโs bod van $200.
* FluffyStar64 neemt het bod op, wat betekent dat zij nu gaan proberen de reservering te regelen.
* Peter kan nu met FluffyStar64 overleggen als hij vragen heeft terwijl FluffyStar64 het bod probeert te vervullen.
3.) De Reservering Vinden
* FluffyStar64 gebruikt nu hun contacten bij Rare Society San Clemente om de tafel te regelen.
* Als het lukt om de tafel voor vier om 18:00 uur te bemachtigen, krijgt Peter een bevestiging dat de reservering geslaagd is.
* Als FluffyStar64 de reservering niet kan regelen, gaat het bod terug in de pool zodat een andere gebruiker het kan proberen.
4.) Betaling & Bescherming
* Zodra de reservering is geregeld, ontvangt FluffyStar64 de $200 beloning, die wordt bijgeschreven op het AT-saldo van FluffyStar64. Gebruikers beheren hun eigen saldo en kunnen laten uitbetalen via opties zoals bankoverschrijving, PayPal of Zelle.
* Peter kan nu genieten van het diner met zijn vrienden bij Rare Society San Clemente!
* Zoals bij alle transacties op AT worden geschillen en no-show kosten afgehandeld via het community-gedreven resolutiesysteem van het platform. Gebruikers met een sterke reputatie worden gestimuleerd om biedingen succesvol te vervullen, en communityleden kunnen problemen melden om het vertrouwen in de marktplaats te waarborgen.
