"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."

The food was excellent, in particular the fillet steak. That was one of the many highlights of our evening. The staff were so friendly and the drinks were very delicious. They took quite long to arrive however. The new look is stunning. The pianist was the perfect accompaniment to our evening.

Amazing hospitality from the start of the entrance. You are greeted pleasantly by everyone working there including the valet, and the people at the door. When you go downstairs to sit on the oceanfront , you are greeted by the kitchen staff, and all of them are all smiles and welcoming. The appetizers they bring in the beginning are incredible. I’d recommend any of the steaks because the meat is amazing. The cheesecake is sensational. The espresso martini is the best I’ve ever had. It is a little pricey, but I didn’t feel bad about paying because it seemed fair for the quality of service, location, and food. I’d go again next time I’m in Barbados.

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!

We celebrated my 60th at this beautiful restaurant and had a wonderful time. The food was delicious - oysters, sushi, beef wellington and lobster. All prepared with style and cooked to perfection.

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.

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.

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

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!
