Location
It’s a great place to enjoy a meal while taking in stunning views. The location is also convenient for tourists, as it’s close to many of the city’s attractions. The downside to the Cliff House is that it can be a little busy, and the wait times can be long. But overall, it’s a wonderful place to eat, drink, and take in the sights of San Francisco.

Appetizers
The appetizers are reasonably priced and there is a good selection to choose from.
Bacon glazed in honey is a delicious dish that can be very rewarding for a starter dish.
The bacon was cooked to perfection and then glazed with a sweet honey sauce. This dish is sure to please any bacon lover.

The Food
The Cliff House has a wide variety of menu items, including breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The restaurant also offers a variety of desserts and a full bar. The Cliff House is a great place to eat if you are looking for a delicious meal and great service.
My friend and I ordered the Mussels in Marinara Sauce, Cheese Queso Frito, buffalo chicken wings, and Nachos with Cheese.
The mussels were actually quite a big serving and it tasted really good. The cheese queso Frito is basically fried cheese and it was so addictive! You have to try this if you like cheese. The nachos were also good, but nothing special though.
The buffalo chicken wings are my personal favorite and they are always cooked to perfection.

creamy cheesecakes with fruits
The White Chocolate Fondue comes with fresh fruits, cookies, and brownies for dipping. It was so rich and sweet though that we could only finish half of it despite being chocolate lovers.
The service is quick and efficient, and the staff is always friendly and accommodating.

superb white chocolate fondue
We were full at this point but we had to try their famous White Chocolate Fondue as it is always on their menu and we had never tried it before.
I would recommend The Cliff House to anyone looking for a great place to eat outside of the city.
