We enjoy the grilled extra large lobster on the beach for lunch. You can't have it more fresh, you see all the lobster alive in a tank. You chose the size you want and they cook it the way you want as well. Nothing can be better in Barbados. I really recommend it.

I have been there 4 times so far and each time it gets better. The food is fantastic and the service is great. You can sit back enjoy the view of the ocean and have a nice cocktail or wine while enjoying a jazz session. The lobster is tasty and you can share a lobster and have many other delicious... More

Probably the best place to eat a fresh lobster. Unpretentious beach bar, perhaps a bit too expensive but definitely a must if you want a good lobster.

We dined at Lobster Alive on the advice of a local and were not disappointed. My husband and I each had lobster and our 2 kids shared one. With a nice bottle of white wine the tab was $311 US. The restaurant is very casual and right on the beach. We enjoyed this atmosphere; our kids played in the sand... More

We walked to Lobster Alive from the Hilton, it was about a 30 minute walk with little kids with short legs. The kids enjoyed watching the lobsters in the giant lobster tank and the grownups enjoyed a table in the shade looking out on to the beautiful beach. The food was great our favorite was the lobster spring rolls. The... More
