    Food and service was outstanding. Can’t wait to come back when it’s a little warmer outside so we can eat on the patio.

    We had a very nice anniversary dinner there. The setting is lovely and the waterfall at the entrance is picturesque. The dinner room is elegant. I had the swordfish which I enjoyed a lot and my wife liked the scallops. Ah for the bread as it is delicious but only comes if requested.

    Slightly disappointed, made reservations for 4 and my wife’s bday was noted, given a table by the front door and it was very cold every time door opened. Asked for a different table and got a better one and that table remained empty. Had a good meal and started with calamari which was different from the table next to us and not real good, tiny pieces. It seemed that there were a lot of bdays going on but we were given dessert menus. I told the waiter when I made reservations on open table the special occasion was a bday and asked him if it was noted and he said no, shame on open table or the restaurant, but he was gracious and took care of it, I am not sure I will go back.

    Thank you for choosing Cliffhouse as your hosts. I apologize this birthday celebration did not go as planned. I am glad to hear we were able to accommodate you eventually, but it should not have had to happen in this manner.
