Cafe Mimosa

In just over two years, Cafe Mimosa has earned a reputation as one of the best brunch spots in San Clemente. Week after week, customers line up on Avenida Del Mar, mimosa in hand, patiently awaiting plates of croissant French toast, Spanish eggs benedict and slow-braised crispy pork belly.


Nearly a year ago, too, Cafe Mimosa opened its doors for dinner, offering seasonal treats such as crispy tempura squash blossoms and seared foie gras with housemade white peach marmalade. Every Wednesday through Saturday evening as well, diners can enjoy a five-course prix-fixe tasting menu. Here's a sample menu.
