What's the current best CL implementation on macOS/OS X? Is it still SBCL or something else?

SBCL is very good and what most of the open source community uses. Clozure CL is also very good, reasonably popular, and has good Cocoa support. LispWorks is excellent, but proprietary; the paid versions are very expensive but there is a free 'Personal' edition as well.

I would recommend SBCL unless you want to do GUI stuff.

I use SBCL on macOS. Very satisfied! ;-)
