Last year we had a fabulous evening experience at the Cliff, and were looking to repeat that again. It has stiff competition on the Platinum coast so expectations were as high as their prices. We started with a wait of 15 minutes before I had to ask a waiter if we could have a pre-dinner drink! Not good! Then when... More

Spectacular views, mediocre food (the food is not what you are paying for), excellent service, exhorbitant prices. Our second (and probably last) time dining there, they now take "Holiday" coupons and put "supplementary" charges on their prix fix menu for items with more expensive ingredients. If I wasn't paying full retail I guess that would not be bothersome, but if... More

We are fortunate to travel to Barbados annually and always book 2 dinner reservations at The Cliff. The ambiance, service and quality of food is outstanding. If you book make sure to request a table on the lower level against the railing. It's pricey, but if you are in Barbados, it's worth going to at least once.

This is a superb place to eat. It is designed like s a ship. From where I sat I could see sting rays slowly gliding by. Food is well prepared and tasty. When finished we went to the upper deck and enjoyed XO cognac and Havana's finest. One irritation is that they completely messed up the timing of the first... More

After doing research into what restaurants to visit during our stay in Barbados The Cliff came up frequently. We took note that it was expensive so made it our 'main' selection out 8 visited. It didn't disappoint, every aspect of the evening made you feel special, from the greeting on arrival and the all the staff throughout the evening. The... More

idyllic setting, great food, at a price I guess you'd expect to pay in Barbabos for one of it's top restaurants. Great place for a special occasion - but book up well in advance - even booking before you leave for your holiday - as its very very popular. The whole ambience of the place is lovely and the service... More

Very enjoyable food, attentive waiting staff all fine. The couple that lit up their cigarettes and started blowing their smoke our way during our main course not so fine. I queried this with the waiter who kindly offered to ask the couple concerned to stop smoking, however we opted to move tables. My wife and I queried the Cliffs smoking... More

Treated like royalty from the second we arrived to the second we left. The setting is one of best we have ever encountered. Food was utterly divine (and that's high praise indeed coming from one of the fussiest eaters on the planet), service was second to none. I will never forget my Flaming Snowball dessert, it was absolutely fantastic, I... More
