    My wife and I had a fantastic dinner at Clifford’s Grill & Lounge. We both ordered the 200g Black Angus Eye Fillet—cooked à la plancha with thyme and garlic butter, served alongside truffle mash, roasted field mushroom, broccolini, kale, and house jus. The steak was remarkably tender and cooked to perfection, and every accompanying component was delicious. The staff were friendly and attentive throughout the evening, and the relaxed, welcoming atmosphere made for a lovely night out. Highly recommended!

    The food here was divine! Fantastic rump steak, grilled to perfection. We also ordered the bug tail linguini in the entree size and I’m glad we did because the portion size was great. Perfect spot for a lovely date night, celebratory dinner or anyone wanting a nice restaurant with great food. We’ll definitely be back!

    We are return customers have been when staying in the hotel however tonight was disappointing while food was nice side dishes were cold and service was very poor after getting a first drink had to go to the bar to get more waiter did not return to ask for more drinks or to check if everything was ok. We spent nearly $400 on dinner and did not leave a tip due to the service. And my husband always tips. Don’t know if we would bother to go back again.

    The food was amazing and the staff were great. We were told that there would be a wait for the food due to a table of 20 but we had no problem with our order coming out in a reasonable time.

    Worst dining experience on GC Asked for a table at window and was told it was all booked . Then watched nobody come into the restaurant or get seated in the upper part of the dining room Food was disgusting . No customer service Had to ask for salt and pepper Med well eye fillet for $60 was served rare Spend your money elsewhere !!!!

    I had high expectations for our visit at Clifford’s grill and lounge after our previous experience, however we were slightly let down by table service and food.
