Lovely open restaurant with views out over the narrow beach to the sea, close enough for you to hear the waves genty breaking. Tables spaced out and plenty of room, food very good wth interesting range on the menu. Service also very good. All in all the really good place to eat but for the price there are so many... More

Setting, food, service and staff...and did I already say setting LoL We went for lunch and had a great experience. Like The Cliff this is a must visit restaurant for people visiting the island. We look forward to our next trip

Wonderful food, gorgeous view excellent staff, doesn't look like anything from the outside but certainly makes up for it once you enter. Book early to ensure a seat.

When you arrive at the Lone Star it doesn't look like anything special. In fact that is because it's a converted petrol station. In the 1960s it was the only petrol station on the west coast. As you walk down the stairs you notice that everyone is dressed in smart boiler suits because of this history but more importantly you... More

following a recommendation from friends we took the speedboat from Sandy Lane to the Lone Star which I would descibe as a bit of a throw back in time. It has a lovely location on the beach and an interesting menu somewhat reminicent of school dinners! i had the calamari to start followed by the fish pie both of which... More

We visited the Lone Star twice during our recent trip to Barbados. The restaurant is a converted garage and doesnt look anything special from the outside. However when you properly enter the restaurant you see the spectacular sea views. On our first visit we were seated promptly at the front of the restaurant - it almost feels that you are... More

Originally a garage hence the waiters all wear garage type boilersuits. Simple decor but the beach setting and views more than make up. Eclectic mix of food from the obvious fresh fish to shepherds pie and chicken tikka massala. The curry seemed to be the popular choice when we were there. It is served with rice, chutney and poppadoms and... More

We visited The Lone Star at 3pm for a long late lazy lunch where we met up with some friends. Lovely cocktails were had at the bar on arrival (priced similarly to prices back home) and were served by friendly, helpful staff. Our table was situated at the front of the restaurant overlooking the beach which provided stunning views and... More
