"Enormously popular, the Cliff Restaurant indeed sits right over the sea in Saint James Parish, andall of thetables on its two levels afford fine views. Many of theseafood dishes, such as curry mussels and chargrilled swordfish, are Asian influenced. At night, the outdoorseating area isilluminated by torchlight, revealingthe stingrays swimming below."

What a beautiful place! Very few places in the world have that special view, the nicest staff and food that tasty! Multiple levels, each with a special view, the short ribs were very tasty and the shrimp curry was amazing! Our waiter was super attentive and you can tell everyone is well trained to complete your experience with the best service. We loved it!

While we were here for drinks mainly, the atmosphere and ambience is unmatched. From the view to the staff, everything is top tier. The limoncello is crafted in house by the bar manager and is delicious. While I can’t attest to the food, I can only imagine it is incredible as well!

We had high expectations from learning this was supposed to be one of the best restaurants in the Caribbean. During our stay we went to Tides, Champers, Lone Star, Tapas and Primo.All fine dining restaurants. We were celebrating 3 occasions this holiday, so we didn't mind splashing out on fine dining and so didn't district ourselves to cost. The place, ambience, decor, location and service was all 5 star. But unfortunately the food was not and at best 2 stars. Especially when you factor the cost as this was the most expensive restaurant we went to from all the ones mentioned. They served some complimentary entrees which includes lobster balls, salted sticks with fish mayo. All good so far. Choice of bread and butter was very good. Drinks ordered were pretty amazing, although the nin alcoholic ware not so amazing. Starters we ordered a beef tartare, Waldorf salad, and a couple of different sushis. Beef tartare was excellent. Sushi was mediocre at best. Had better sushi in UK local Japanese restaurants. There were 8 pieces so it was generous. But the taste and quality didn't elevate at all. Wasabi had no taste and was dry. No kick or fire to clean the pallet. Waldrof salad was the biggest disappointment with 4 decided small leaves and was barely even a starter! For mains we went with the beef wellington to share , lamb chops and a chicken Kiev. The beef was good and tasty, although I wouldn't say 5 stars. The lamb chops were a little disappointing and didn't have much flavour. He chicken Kiev was undercooked to one half and had to be sent back and really didn't taste of much. They were good enought to. It charge for that. But then two courses at $330 and 3 courses at $380 Bajan dollars was a lot anyway and it just didn't feel worth it. We ordered two deserts, a raspberry cheesecake and a soufflé.l with Bailey's cream. Those were excellent. They did make us feel special and and bought a little anniversary dessert too. And then something to clean the pallet. Os all in all I would have given this place a 3.5 star at best overall. I think if they get the food right with a top chef then this place could be something special.

Kitty and I had an absolutely amazing evening at the Cliff last night! The staff treated us like royalty. The summer 4 course menu was perfect for us and we each shared a glass of red and white. I think the summer menu is a great idea and just brought the meal into our affordability bracket! Thank you so much and we very much hope we can return again in the future! Best wishes James and Kitty

The police is super nice and super modern in terms of decor look and feel. The staff are really nice and attentive and very professional to boot. The appetizers are actually quite tasty, the tomato salad is not to be missed it's actually incredible. The sushi was ok, the reported wagyu steak was mediocre at best, it was not very tender and it seemed like a power cut of meat. The bread rolls are ok, the one with the bacon was quite nice. The bill was very high for the quality of food. The decor and the staff make up for it somewhat.

I recently visited The Cliff Restaurant on a recommendation from a friend whilst there for my 40th Birthday. I am so pleased as I was blown away. The location is truly breath-taking. One of the most unique restaurant locations I've ever experienced, perfectly complemented by it's decor and ambience. The food was out of this world. There were two of us and from the bread to the steak to the dessert, everything that touched our lips was completely devoured. Finally, what really took it to next level was the service. We had an issue with our reservation and on the final of three days of our trip, I was wracked with unfounded concern that this would prevent our visit. It didn't and the manner it was resolved was with the utmost professionalism. Then at every step of our visit, every member of staff we spoke to was knowledgeable, approachable and friendly. Modern restaurants need to begin to recognise that this is what sets the world class experiences from everyone else. That steadfast commitment to a great customer experience. Cannot wait to go back. Thank you to all the staff.

Everything about this restaurant was 10/10 , a little on the pricy side but worth every penny. Had a lovely meal with my partner and we received exceptional service. The sushi is definitely highly recommended by us.

Ambiance was amazing but the food and pricing do not make sense. When making the reservation I asked if they did a la carte and they confirmed they did. Probably should have reconfirmed what the prices on the menu would be per item but assumed it wouldn’t be that bad for one cacio e Pepe, one mahi mahi and one scallops entree. Ended up paying $350 USD for one app of scallops and two entrees (one cacio e Pepe and one mahi mahi). Food was mediocre ambiance was pretty good but does not justify the odd pricing. When asked how the pricing worked the waitress told us we would be charged one 2 course menu and it would be 280 local/140 USD for the entree. So paid $140 usd for a cacio e pepe? Kind of insane.
