Crema's Take

This family-run San Clemente gem excels at hearty, customizable breakfast fare—their breakfast burritos are legendary, and the homemade salsas strike that perfect balance of flavor and heat that keeps locals coming back. What really sets S.C. Cafe apart is the genuinely warm hospitality; servers treat you like family, the pet-friendly patio welcomes everyone, and the spacious dining room handles the weekend rush without losing that intimate, welcoming vibe. Whether you're grabbing a quick Cali burrito or settling in for mexi huevos rancheros, this is the kind of place that becomes a cherished part of your routine.

My Cali burrito was fantastic. I subbed the French fries for hash-browns and added beans. Their homemade salsas were the perfect mix of flavor and heat! Can’t wait to come back

Came here with my family today, food was great and all the servers were really nice. When I got donuts across the street on Sunday it looks like it gets really busy. I had the mexi huevos rancheros, the salsa that came with it was perfect

Love this family-run breakfast spot! The staff is always so friendly and accommodating—it really feels like home. They have the best breakfast burrito in town, hands down. And the SC breakfast sandwich with ham? Absolutely killer. A true local gem!

Recipe to a successful Restaurant… good food… good service. Period! Our first time here and it won’t be our last. The menu is endless and they have a pet friendly patio. Plenty of seating inside and outside for everyone.

We were in town for an overnight trip and we're looking for a great spot for a good breakfast. We did some searching on Google and found this place and said that it had some good reviews. We decided to give it a shot and the second I saw it and we walked in I knew it was my kind of place. Cozy, quaint, good energy and definitely felt like a good surf spot cafe. The staff was all smiles when we walked in and they came around and told my wife that they liked her coat. They have a lot to choose from in terms of breakfast but I stuck to standard Bacon, eggs, pancakes, hash browns and I got a side of biscuits and gravy. My wife got an omelet and it was gigantic! The food was great and the service was fantastic and we never needed anything because they were right there on top of it. We got some sincere "thank you for coming in" wishes on our way out and it's definitely a place that we would stop again when we go back to San Clemente. They have fresh tortillas and fresh salsa too by the way which is a nice added bonus! I was hoping they had some flavored creamers for the coffee, but that's not a big enough issue for me to complain about it. Overall, everything was great and we will be back.
