    We’ve been there numerous times. We were disappointed. We were seated at a table that was wobbly and couldn’t be fixed. Then they sat us at a table where there was noise from the kitchen. There were other tables free with less noise. They plopped down a drink menu without any explanation. What happened to the server discussing cocktail options? The food was OK. Left a poor impression. Not planning on returning.

    Excellent waiter-Michael. The food was sumptuous. The service was almost too quick and we were out of there in an hour.

    Hadn’t been to the Cliffhouse for more than a year. No reason why, just wasn’t on our rotation list, but this visit will put it there, despite some deficiencies. Despite our reservation, we were put at an awkwardly placed table in a noisy alcove. The place was hopping and service was a bit delayed. Cocktails were delivered cold and were well made. Salads were large and served as ordered. The four of us ordered our mains quite differently, one ordering two small plates, one a large salad, one the sea bass and another a pasta. Each of us thought our dish was excellent. The wait person was stretched thin but did her best to keep up. On balance a good experience.
