    Si Bon is consistently a wonderful place for any meal. The quality of food, service and ambiance is beyond compare. The value is outstanding especially considering how wonderful it is! Today, Thanksgiving, was exceptionally amazing. They offered not only a traditional turkey dinner entree, but several others, and included ample, delicious accompanying vegetables. Several deserts were available for a very reasonable charge. I'm always impressed with the excellence! On top of everything, there's inside and outside patio seating, as well as a large but comfy bar area. I must also add that our server, Melissa was very attentive and friendly.

    Most amazing meal and service in a beautiful setting. Our server went out of her way to accommodate our adult granddaughter who has several allergies. Lobster tail was best ever. Duck was amazing as was the flatiron steak. Six extremely satisfied customers. We can’t wait to go back

    WOW what a terrific dinner! We celebrated our 45th wedding anniversary and chose the Cliffhouse. Denise our server was warm and gracious, and our dinner was exceptional. I had the filet mignon, which was tasty and cooked to perfection, and my husband had the Wagu strip steak, and it was amazing. He also had the Ceaser salad and said it was the best one he has had and he orders them wherever we go. Praise to the new Executive Chef who has elevated the food to new heights!
