La Quinta Cliffhouse: Sunset Room

Wow, what a beautiful scenery! This restaurant has it all! You first enter the restaurant next to a pond and go over a staircase on the cliff to enter the main restaurant where you are greeted by the waiter and are taken to your table (make sure to make a reservation ahead of time!). The ambiance in the restaurant is great. There is also plenty of outdoor seating overlooking the city from atop, with a magnificent view during sunset. There is also a waterfall and a ram statue. As for the food, the price vs taste is pretty good. There is plenty of food on your plate, and it also tastes great! The steaks are very good and they will get it exactly to your liking. Overall, everything about this place is great in regards to food! The servers are very kind and friendly as well. They do their best to accommodate you and make sure you are not missing anything. A huge props to them! Overall, the experience you get at this restaurant is unlike any other because of its environment. A must try for anyone living in or visiting the valley!

Wonderful place for happy hour as well as dinner. Our bartender Mario was very attentive and took great care of our party! It’s truly amazing how this restaurant is built into a cliff. We had the happy hour burger and fries and the short rib. Both were excellent!

Its everything you expect from a great restaurant. The food was cooked to perfection. Seasoned wonderfully, the staff was friendly and very attentive, couldn't ask for a better location, and the architecture itself is stunning. A perfect place to spend with family and friends.

Lovely experience. Made a reservation on Open Table. They can book up so highly recommend making a reservation as soon as you can. Sometimes, the day/time I've wanted has been booked a week in advance. We sat on the patio. They have heaters so the winter chill waa not an issue. The service and food waa great. Be did early bird it so we got the sunset supper before 5. We were not super hungry so it was perfect. No leftovers to take home. On Wednesdays they also have 1/2 off wine bottles. Lovely selection of wine. Buy its the whole experience that makes it wonderful.

This is the ideal restaurant to go to for a date night or a special occasion. The food and drinks are amazing, and the ambiance is perfect for romance or getting reacquainted with someone. There is ample outdoor seating on their deck which overlooks their waterfall. And keep an eye out for the ram statute atop the hillside. Our reservation was for after the sun went down, but I think this would be a beautiful place to watch the sunset. Our favorite appetizer were the bacon wrapped dates. My husband was a little skeptical at first as he’s not a big date eater, but he was quickly made into a convert (and you will be too, if you try them). Husband had the rigatoni for his meal, but I ordered the seafood stew, and it was unreal! If you like spicy food, just ask your server to have the chef turn up the heat, and they will spice it for you expertly. It was also a large portion, so I had plenty of leftovers for the next day. Didn’t have room for dessert, but they had a wide array of delicious looking selections, so next time I will try to remember that. Overall, an amazing night, and one that will not soon be forgotten.
