Delicious food, great service, fair prices
We were greeted quickly upon entry by 2 servers. Our server that evening was friendly, kind, and attentive throughout our meal. She lit a candle at our table, which provided nicer ambiance with the lowered lighting. We got a cushioned booth, very cozy.
There's a wall separating the sports bar area. It wasn't crazy noisy for Friday early evening. There was quite background music playing in the dining area. From our booth, we could view -but not hear- the TVs (news & sports) in the bar-area through upper panels of glass on the dividing wall. This is great if you have a partner/friend who doesn't want to miss the game, while dining.
Cajun-Fried Calamari Appetizer: cooked just right. Tender, not chewy. Perfect to share between 2 adults. Tasty dip.
Lamb Entree: delicious! Tender, moist, cooked to order (medium rare), great assortment of roasted vegetables , flavourful mushroom gravy & mashed potatoes. *affordably priced
Chicken Parmigiano Entree: Yum! Also tender & moist. Mozzarella cheese layer looked like it would be a bit heavy, BUT it was perfect! Served with roasted vegetables & penne pasta with marinara sauce.
*Server offered freshly grated parmesan & grated pepper upon serving our entrees.
*Cloth napkins when dining in
Note: The side roasted vegetables help set their dinner entrees apart. Usually with a great variety of seasonal/root vegetables, plus carrots & broccoli. Also, not oily. Side dishes are often an afterthought at chain restaurants. You can taste the thoughtfulness & care put into each dish at La Scogliera.
We've been repeat customers for several years. Highly recommend dining at La Scogliera to anyone near the Cliffside area!

YUM! Delicious food, great service :) (First time customer)
Ordered a Chicken Shawarma Sausage with fries & a bottled drink. It was definitely loaded with toppings: diced turnips, pickles, hummus, garlic sauce, & pico de gallo.
Fries were extra tasty! Found out they're fresh cut potatoes (skin on) blanched in oil first, then fried nice and crisp! Sooo good :)
Ketchup is supplied in a mini plastic cup with lid & napkins given.
Lady at the cash was very pleasant & friendly! Food was ready very fast! Though there was no line at that moment.
Picnic table seating area, with umbrellas, was clean & in order. It was shaded by the nearby trees, at the time I was there.
Found out they accept Google Pay, good to know for future purchases. I feel the pricing to be reasonable/affordable, especially considering it's a popular waterside location.
I really like the overall menu variety, and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the Scarborough Bluffs Park, Marina, & Beach areas.
Thanks again! I'll definitely be back:)
