It is a beautiful, romantic setting for a lovely dinner or special event. We just had small plates, the octopus and scallops, and they were wonderful. In fact, the scallops might have been the best I've ever had. We came again for Restaurant Week five months later, and again, we had a wonderful time. I loved the salmon, and my girlfriend loved her clams and spaghetti.

The staff that greeted us were fantastic and our waitress Taylor was amazing. As a starter, I had the stuff squash blossoms, and my wife had a mix green salad. Both were amazing. They said that they just put the squash blossoms on the menu not too long ago. Well worth a try. For the main course we had ribeye and a fillet. Once again, both were excellent. And for dessert we found they had a tiramisu so that’s what we got to split. The people and the atmosphere are fantastic. I’ve been here several times before, but it’s been a while and is still as good as I remembered

Was recommended to us by several friends. Great atmosphere! We sat outside, under the misters! Service was great! The food was delicious! We shared the Panzanella Salad and Short Rib Dinner. Finished it off with the Ice Cream Cake! Delish! Would recommend!

Amazing place. Absolutely beautiful 😍. The food was good, but service needs improvement. We got food and drinks, but there were no plates for appetizers. Sorry, we are out of regular plates, eat from bread plates.

Great meal service and atmosphere. Terrific food and drink options with cooling misters on the outside patio as you enjoy sunset. Reservations are suggested and there's plenty of parking.

La Quinta Cliffhouse has been a valley favorite for decades, and it’s easy to see why. With an emphasis on fresh seafood, hearty soups, crisp salads, and a well-rounded mix of beef, chicken, and Italian dishes, there’s something to please every palate. Whether you're a fan of classic seafood fare or prefer something from the land, the extensive menu is thoughtfully crafted to satisfy a variety of tastes. The ambiance is equally inviting, offering a refined yet relaxed atmosphere that makes it a perfect spot for a special dinner or a casual evening out. One of the standout features of La Quinta Cliffhouse is its three dining styles. The traditional dinner menu provides a full selection of meals, while the Sunset dinners offer a smaller selection of half-portioned items at an excellent value. This is perfect for those who want a lighter meal but still crave the high-quality flavors. For a more casual experience, the bar menu is available during happy hour, providing smaller plates and drinks that are just as delicious. This flexibility in dining options makes it a versatile choice for any occasion. The outdoor patio seating, available year-round, enhances the dining experience, especially with misters and fans to keep things cool during the summer and heaters for the winter months. The service is consistently excellent, with attentive staff who ensure every guest feels welcome and taken care of. With enough menu variety to keep everyone satisfied, La Quinta Cliffhouse is a restaurant worth returning to time and time again. Come for the seafood, stay for the atmosphere, and be sure to add this gem to your list of favorite dining spots.

Very nice local spot with fine dining. We made reservations kinda late (less than an hour before planning to dine) and only had a short wait at the bar before we were seated. Wait staff was quite friendly and helped explain menu options. The dining area was quite nice as well and very busy without feeling overcrowded. The food was above and beyond with generous portion sizes. Great date night spot or for family gatherings.

Food was delicious and servers were attentive; the hostess could've greeted with a smile and made us feel welcomed. We went to celebrate my birthday and we loved the atmosphere. I didn't get seated to enjoy a view as requested ahead of time. Nonetheless, very elegant and beautiful restaurant. Had the welcome been felt, I would've rated 5 🌟. I do recommend!

Taylor, our waitress, was incredibly friendly and attentive. The food was good, and both the happy hour and sunset menu have fantastic options.

Great service and food. The waitress was very attentive without hovering, and the overall atmosphere is business class without being pretentious. Golf clothes and a collared shirt are appropriate for the bar room seating. I ordered the Chilean Seabass and it was very good, with a hint of coconut in the sauce that nicely complimented the mild fish. The two appetizers I enjoyed were the asparagus and leek soup (very nice) and the oysters (oysters are pretty hard to mess up unless they are warm water) and both came out quickly. Of note, the summer cocktail menu left something to be desired, and using brown rum for a mojito should be a fine payable to the court.

Nicole Hayes

We thought this restaurants atmosphere was excellent which is why we would 100% come back. The food took a little long to come out and our server didnt check on us as much as we had hoped, but otherwise the food was yummy and we had a great time.

We had reserved a table on a busy Saturday night and were pleasantly surprised when we were seated at a nice outdoor table a few minutes before 8pm. We were quickly served ice water and greeted by server to take our drink order. Unfortunately after that our server was hit and miss and we had to follow up and flag down bus man to get the bread and butter we had requested from server as well as refills to our beverages. a BIG shout out to NICK who jumped in and gave us GREAT service when we were constantly looking for our server --She showed up 5 times total at our table including dropping off our check when we were still eating our dessert. VERY disappointing but again support staff were able and willing but you should not have to look around for other service staff at a place like this. On the other hand the food was great as our table had Flat Iron Steak and Frites with a great basil aioli, Poke Crack Tower with Wontons as well as Braised Short Ribs with mashed potatoes. For dessert we all shared a couple of desserts including Gelato and their house own take on a Mud Pie called the Cliffhouse Ice Cream Pie. We were thankful that we were outside where you had a waterfall offsetting the loud acoustics around you so it was possible to have a conversation as a table without raising your voice.

We arrived as a party of six women, As we entered the restaurant, everyone was wonderful. We got seated right away, but what turned our whole experience to a negative was our service by our server. We were waiting on one person to join us, we had ordered two bottles of wine and found out that it was half off of our bottles of wine for the evening, which was lovely. Our server felt a very disjointed, and he continued to rush us through the whole experience. We hadn’t even finished our dinner and he was putting down Desert menu’s and we said we’re not even finished our dinners yet. The evening would’ve been $500 for the six of us, but because we had a discount on wine it ended up around $375 plus tip. The food arrived in a timely fashion, and was delicious, but I have to say the service needs a little touch up. If you’re spending that kind of money, you would expect a little bit better service. The ambiance of the restaurant is absolutely lovely. i’m not sure I would go back and spend another five to $600 on that type of experience. 🥲

Gorgeous venue, although not all areas of the restaurant are as nice. The front patio is definitely where you want to be if you are wanting a more happening vibe. We were sat on a back patio which was pretty yet sleepy. Service was good. Food was bit of a miss for us.

The place is very nice. The ambience is good. Foods pretty good service is OK. It just seems overpriced for what you get.

Underwhelming. Food was good, not great, and I guess we missed the note that you should sit outside for the view. We arrived in the dark, and the room we sat in was nothing special. Mushroom aranc…

We went there for their New Years Eve pre fix dinner and were uncharacteristicly very disappointed. Apparently they have a new chef and their effort was poor on every dish. I had the Steak Tartar as an appetizer and it had a bitter taste - almost rancid. The Pork main meal was thinly sliced and very over seasoned (salty). We also had the risotto which was tasteless and watery. Everything was also very rushed which when you spend over $300 is very off putting. We go there for happy hour frequently and are generally pleased but this NYE effort was a total miss. We talked to the manager before we left and he said he would talk to the chef. Well, good for him but bad for us. Won’t do a special holiday dinner there again.
