    We frequent this place because it is warm & homey in ambiance & the food is forever interesting, full of choices & delicious; the front of the house & the wait-staff are most excellent. Even when it is full, the noise level remains moderate, and one can always carry on a conversation w/ friends and loved ones. We celebrate special occasions here but also celebrate the joys of everyday; we are always cared for here & it never disappoints. We are drawn back here again & again.

    First of all…. We didn’t go for the “value” we went because this place is great, has great food, is fun to go to and the service has always been exceptional!! Last night Sky was our server and she was beyond great. Some of the small critical issues, while dining, that bug me were tended to and she listened so our service was awesome!! We had 4 different guests and 4 different dinners. Enchiladas, Pesto Pasta, Salmon and Stroganoff. We were all very pleased with our meals. Each couple shared a salad and the portions were surprisingly nicely sized. The grilled pear salad was exceptional and the pears were warm!! Delicious!! We all shared a Butter Cake for desert and was also very suited for the evening. Our friends had Espresso Martinis that they wish they could have had another but also needed to drive home. I enjoyed a Latte and my date had just a cup of coffee which Sky said she brewed a fresh pot of coffee as they had not yet served any!! Good job Sky! We’re liking The Cliff more and more each time we go!!
