- DDeeVIPCalifornia Central Coast •21 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoBirthday lunch with friends on Thursday lunch time! Very friendly welcoming staff and went above and beyond to let us pick easiest accessible table for elders! Sat in large booth closest to patio, was too windy today to enjoy outside but nice location just inside door! We had a Turkey club and fries ,eggs Benedict and a Filet mignonette burrito, all were very good and fresh! We also shared some local wine and the waitress brought me a larger complimentary dessert of Ice cream with strawberry sauce on a soft vanilla cake and fresh berries on the plate, Everything was super delicious and fun and a very lovely celebration 🎉 Thanks Marisol, your the best w a Million Dollar view to boot 😎More infoMarisol at the Cliffs Hotel and SpaPrice: Moderate• Contemporary American• Pismo Beach•4.7
