I got the tacos and they were fantastic! We got a couple of appetizers for the table and they were really delicious as well. the atmosphere was fantastic. it was a friday night and there was live music that was fun and created a great ambiance. The sun set was glorious. the sky, sea, and sunset continued to change the colors of the sky and the ocean as it set and then disappeared. he really was a fantastic night. And I would go there again, any time i'm back in town!
Amazing experience overall. When we arrived, we were told the wait time was about one hour. I explained that I really could not wait that long, and the staff was incredibly helpful and found a table for us much faster than expected. That alone made a great first impression. Our table did not have a perfect ocean view, but honestly, I loved it. It felt peaceful, relaxed, and comfortable, which made the experience even better. We ordered the calamari steak, fish and chips, and carbonara. Everything was absolutely delicious. The calamari steak was perfectly cooked and very flavorful, the fish and chips were crispy and fresh, and the carbonara was rich, creamy, and done just right. My mom and I both loved the food a lot and truly enjoyed every bite. Great service, amazing food, and a very welcoming atmosphere. Definitely a place we would come back to again. Highly recommended when visiting Laguna Beach 🌊🍽️
Definitely worth the drive, so beautiful 😍. We came here on a Saturday afternoon and it was busy but we waited less than 20 minutes for a table. Our view was amazing and the food and drinks were absolutely delicious 🤤. Great for a date breakfast lunch or dinner with spectacular views of Laguna Beach! Treat yourself at least once in this life and go to The Cliff.
Food is average but the view is absolutely amazing. We had the mahi fish taco and red sauce penne pasta and both size are generous and tates are okay. I think the main selling point here is the view and the vibe around. Friends brought their dogs here and they even have pets menu! Very nice place to hang out with friends and families with pets and want to spend their morning and afternoon around the beach.
Nice place to enjoy a good view near the beach. The food flavor is normal, could be better. The service could be better. I felt more attention to local customers than to visitors from other states/cities. I recommend that, at least, they pay the same attention. It was raining and I have to request to open the umbrella. I cleaned the wet chairs so we can be more comfortable.
