The Cliff Restaurant is a popular dining destination known for its breathtaking views of the ocean. The establishment offers a diverse menu with a mix of hits and misses. The Poke Bowl with greens and the Gumbo are praised as "awesome" dishes, while the Coconut Shrimp is described as "overcooked." The Baja Burrito, though not great, is still considered "good."
Customers highlight the excellent food and service while dining with a view of the ocean. Many enjoy the amazing ambiance that evokes a sense of being in Greece, with blue and white decor complementing the sea and sky. The service is noted as a standout feature, with attentive staff ensuring glasses are never half empty and catering to families with children.
However, some reviews suggest the food could use improvement in terms of flavor and freshness. The fish tacos are described as "okay," and there have been concerns about the freshness of certain fish dishes. The restaurant's pricing is also mentioned, with some customers feeling it is a bit too high for the quality received.
Despite these shortcomings, The Cliff Restaurant remains a great place for a meal and a view, with the potential to enhance the overall customer experience through improved service and more consistent food quality. The restaurant is suitable for events, offering a set custom menu, which adds to the convenience of hosting large gatherings.
