I'm sure they have great burgers, but I ordered the BBQ Beef sandwich. The description says that it's chopped beef with barbecue sauce. It's ground meat. It was basically a sloppy Joe. It wasn't bad don't get me wrong, but 10 dollars for a sloppy Joe is a little much to me. read more

It will be one of the better quality meat burgers in town you will ever eat. Show up and you will understand what I mean. Your choice, your way with a deliciously mouthful in every bite. read more

Great service, family owned, reasonable prices, and Amazing food!! If you go there and are feeling some chili cheese fries, they make their chili fresh in house everyday. You won't be disappointed! read more

Doesn't look like much when you past by, but my oh my! Great customer service! Great food! And above all great overall experience! Loved the ownership and do a great job at spreading the joy of their brand! read more

This place is SOOO GOOD!!! They are super friendly and helpful. We get their burgers and have tried several and ALL delicious! It's the kind of place that makes you happy to eat at :) read more

Love the burgers here. Have been eating Cliffs hamburgers for years! Everything is so yummy!

Mediocre at best, definitely overpriced for bland food. Fruit flies in the dining room forced us to box our food and leave. Won't be going back read more

Let's start by admitting that I've been a loyal customer for probably close to 20 years. Cliff's isn't gourmet hamburgers by any means--it's what the name says: old-fashioned hamburgers prepared on a flat grill. The grease factor is very high (great for a hangover, BTW), the salad fixins (lettuce, tomato, etc.) are always fresh and plentiful, and the burgers are not at all skimpy. Each table (and the counter) has ketchup, two kinds of hot sauce, and A-1, so if you want to doctor up the taste, it's not a problem. My personal favorite is the Murphy Burger, although I don't order cheese on my burgers. Ordinarily, it's the burger with cheddar, hickory sauce, carmelized onions and bacon. Even without cheese, it's fantastic! Cliff's offers a huge selection of burger combos, as well as chicken sandwiches, Philly cheese steak sandwiches, and a few others. They also do salads, if you go with a conscientious diner. Their fries are served in huge portions (enough for two adults), and are always thick, hot and crunchy, as they're finished off to order. And they also do a pretty fair breakfast, as well. They compete reasonably well vs. Fountainview Cafe, which is only about 50 yards away. If you happen to be drinking at Ron's Pub, a couple of doors down, they'll actually deliver your order there, even though they sell a decent variety of beers at Cliff's. Prices are reasonable--roughly $10 for a burger, fries and iced tea. read more

This place is everything you want in a good burger joint: fantastic owners, delicious old fashioned burgers, fries and onion rings and so much more. I come here quite often and the service and food quality has always been top notch. Food is cooked to perfection with plenty of fresh vegetables on the burger. Highly recommend if you're craving a good burger with half fries/ half onion rings! read more

I feel silly. I went here for the first time, and what did I order? A hamburger? NO. I ordered their philly cheesesteak sammy. And it was DELICIOUS! It was greasy, juicy, cheesy and had deliciously caramelized onions on top. I also ordered their home cut french fries. They were okay....not bad. The place is tiny inside. Very hole-in-the-wall like, but comfortable. I am sure I will go here again...and I WILL ORDER a BURGER. I'll update this review when it happens! read more

This place has become my Saturday staple. I usually stop in before the darts tourney at Ron's and get my grub on. They have a wall full of options and it is counter service--fast counter service. They are curt, but they get the job done. The restaurant is clean and almost always empty. Plus, they deliver next door which is nice. The burgers, which is what they're famous for, are pretty good. I tend to go with bacon every chance I get and it is not something to skip. Simple, large, and delicious. They're the kind of burgers that remind you of summertime barbecues in the neighborhood. Last week, I had the frito pie which was okay--nothing spectacular. The fries are always nice and crisp, the salads are fine, and the other sandwiches I've had here have been pretty well made. They do have a pretty extensive menu, but usually I'm a sucker for a burger or something smothered in cheese. Next on the list to check out is the cheese fries. Yum! There is nothing life changing about Cliff's, but it is a dependable standby for good, greasy food. They do have beer and wine available and everything is decently priced. In general, it is a good place to grab a bite to eat before a long night of drinking. read more

Cliff's is the kind of local, neighborhood burger joint that I love. Little hole in the wall, staff that's been there forever, small outdoor seating area that's great for a nice day. Problem is, the burgers are average. My favorite at Cliff's is the Murphy Burger, which is a traditional cheeseburger with BBQ sauce. The BBQ sauce is a good idea at Cliff's, because the machine-formed patty is fairly flavorless on its own. The onions used are also very mild, and contributes to the below-average rating. But heck, if you love bland food, Cliff's may be your idea of burger heaven. It's just not mine. read more

Nice location, clean restaurant, positive service at the counter. I had the special rib & brisket meat hamburger with cheese and onion rings. The Burger was a half pound, cooked medium, juicy and not too salty. I'd recommend it to anyone who is very hungry. read more

My first time coming here and I ordered the chicken fried steak burger.. it was extremely thin sliced with barely any meat and fried. Definitely was not worth the money spent. read more

This is the kind of neighborhood joint that you're supposed to love. It's cozy and inviting, with counter service and a visible short-order cook that's quick on the draw. But where charm succeeds, taste fails. Chalk one up for the Smashburger chains of the world; they may not be the most homey, but they make the best burgers. Despite the awesome decor, Cliff's falls far short on the actual burger-making part. The fries are think and hearty, but lack any semblance of taste. I made plentiful use of the ketchup. The burger itself looks like a pre-made frozen patty from Whataburger. Whataburger, however, does an excellent job of spicing up the sandwich with plenty of condiments and accoutrements. Not so at Cliff's. I went with the chili-cheddar burger, and guess what, I still had to use ketchup to draw some taste. The onions were undercooked, neither crunchy nor caramelized enough. And the chili, combined with the patty, actually tasted like beef overkill. I'm thinking I just ordered the wrong burger. I also should have gone with the delicious-looking onion rings instead of the fries. As mentioned, the place looks awesome and judging from Yelp reviews, seems like a really great pre-bar snack. Maybe next time, Cliff. read more

Best little burger joint in this area! I've been eating here about every other month for the past 7 years. Burgers are on point, try the Kobe burger. They deliver too. If any of us at work ever want a cheat meal for lunch, we order from here...US Anesthesia Partners' employees loves your food! Attaching some photos from my yummy lunch I had delivered at work today...patty melt & chili cheese fries. Thanks Mike! Always fast & friendly service. read more

See all

Cliff's is alright and honestly a great call when you need ur non fast food burger fix in a pinch, but this review is actually about my cat, Butters. He is perfect in every way and deserves even more than 5 stars. Butters, if ur reading this, stay steez bro. read more

The burger was great, but THE ONION RINGS ARE A MEAL ON THEIR OWN! TASTY, TASTY, TASTY, AND FILLING! The staff was very friendly and gave me the best recommendation to have a half order of onion rings and half order fries with my burger. read more

Overall this place is really solid. Great atmosphere, owner promptly greets you when you come in and he remembers his customers by name. Food is pretty solid. Beef patty could have been thicker, but flavor was spot on. Fries were plentiful and super tasty. Will be back again. read more

I love the Cliff's Burger with cheddar cheese all wrapped up in paper like a little present. It is my favorite non fast food burger place. As for everything else on the menu - I haven't tried much if anything else although I will say I don't like their fries. Seating can be troublesome when they are busy and I more often than not will get it to go. Service is always great and the faces are always familiar. Some coworkers of mine speak highly of their dessert bars too (but I've never had them). read more

I had the chicken sandwich & it was tasty. I recommend ordering by calling in if you want to-go because it took a while to get my food ordering via the Yelp app. Well worth the wait! Real cut potato fries could have used seasoning (I enjoy spice) but we're yummy nonetheless. Will definitely be going back one day! read more

Been going to Cliff's for 25 years. Still my favorite burger and fries in town, and a great atmosphere.

Great greasy neighborhood cafe. The service is exceptionally friendly and personable. Cozy interior and good burgers. What more is there to say? read more

I ordered lunch from here yesterday - just couldn't take another cold sandwich..... I decided on the patty melt an fries. Since the nearby Southwell's is damaged, this joint is overflowing with additional business, but they are cranking out orders like nobody's business. Anyhoo - I got back to my office to eat and the sandwich was crammed into a little container (still eats the same) and while it was good, I can't say I was amazed. The fries are hand cut and you better eat them fresh and hot because they do not do well cold or reheated. I'll keep this as a go to backup, but I'll just wait until Southwell's is back up. read more

Not five stars as i ordered 2 onion ring orders and only got one to go. Good burger and the old school way.

Bad food, worse service. Highly Not recommended. The woman at the front counter was VERY rude to us as we reviewed the Menu. After ordering she had incorrectly input my order and blamed me for not knowing how to order & it was my first (& last) time to visit. Instead of dealing with her attitude, I just took it the meal as is. The BBQ sandwich was hot, but the bun was soggy when it arrived & the fries were cold & floppy. read more

Mom and pop joint, but it couldnt be better. these guys have the best Chicken Fried Steak ever! Its a bit pricy, but worth it!! read more

Love this place! Has been my go-to while pregnant with twins. My husband and I usually get the Murphy burger (consistently delicious!!). The fries are always fresh and so good - tried sharing an order once and we won't do that again! read more

Ate here twice in one week cause it was so nice. Came with work colleagues based on a recommendation from my mom. Got a bacon cheeseburger and it was huge! They put so many onions and lettuce and tomatoes. I could pretend I was being healthy as I ate the bacon! The manager guy was nice and friendly. Chatty to a comfortable point. Decided to come back with my husband on the weekend. This time I ordered the greek salad (manager said it was the best selling salad on the menu) and the husband got the bacon cheeseburger. He was a little disappointed because things were falling out of the burger because it was so big. He even had to use a fork at the end. But my salad tasted great. the chicken was nicely flavored. The only thing is I didn't know it had olives so I had to take them out. The manager guy remembered me (duh...I was there 3 days before) and was again friendly. Also the lady who took our order was funny cause she carded my husband even though he is 29. All in all a very nice place. It's right down the street from where I'm working for the month. Might have to go again to support a great small business! read more

Nice Family Owns family type restaurant. Food is excellent quality! Nice Managment Environment. Fresh Cut Potatoe Fries are the Best in this Town! read more

Service sucks. Just go to south wells across the street. Way better service and burgers

One of the best burgers around and great choices for non beef eaters. Wonderful and family owned!

Disappointed.. staff was friendly but this was not a good ole fashion burger joint! Great fries but What-a-burger has a much better patty melt! Just my opinion! read more

Walked in couldn't decide what I wanted because everything looked so good. Mike suggested the Kobe Burger and it did not disappoint the best burger I have ever had and amazing waffle fries with it. Thank you Mike for such a great suggestion can't wait to try the lamb burger next read more

We love Cliff's.. Great cheat meal for low carbers :) The owners are so friendly and the food is fresh and delicious. It reminds me of the diners in the Northeast--simple, a little unhealthy and tasty food. read more

Great place. Great owners. Don't sleep on their chicken sandwiches like the Jax or Porsche.

Such a cute place since they remodeled. The burgers were fantastic and get the onion rings. We'll definitely be back!
