" My craving for authentic Mexican food is fully satisfied at Surfin' Chicken! The chicken enchiladas were incredibly delicious and freshly made. It's a wonderful family-run restaurant that deserves all the praise it's getting. The only downside is its location; it can be a little hard to find. " (*Curated Review*)

" A hidden gem! We were in town for a quick visit and decided to stop here based on online reviews. The grilled chicken was mind-blowing, so juicy and flavorful. The atmosphere was casual yet charming. We also tried their homemade salsa, which was an excellent complement to our meal. If you're in San Clemente, make this your dining choice! " (*Curated Review*)

" Overall a decent experience but not the best I've had. The food was okay, but I was expecting more flavor. The service was polite, but we had a longer wait than anticipated. Perhaps I just picked the wrong items from the menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" Very disappointed with our visit. The chicken was dry and bland, quite different from the great reviews we heard. Service was average; it just didn't live up to the excitement. I wouldn’t return unless I heard it improved significantly. " (*Curated Review*)
