Nothing could have prepared us for this truly magical experience! On arrival our car doors opened to a great welcome and we were ushered to the bar to enjoy a sumptuous pre dinner cocktail overlooking the very blue and glistening Caribbean. We were ushered to our seats to enjoy a magical three course meal and delicious wine looking at the... More

Everyone who visits Barbados knows of this iconic restaurant and so on our visit this year we decided to try for ourselves. We booked in advance in order to ensure a rail table which we had, actually it is really quiet at present on the island so this was not a problem. We arrived about 40 minutes before our booked...

This was a special visit for my partners birthday and we had the most fantastic meal. The service was excellent - nothing was too much trouble and they even bought out a birthday plate for him! The food was amazing, we are both keen cooks and so it was a special treat to eat such amazing dishes. Needless to say... More

My husband took me to The Cliff for my birthday - well, what can I say?!!! This place is amazing. We had pre-dinner drinks overlooking the ocean ( and the rays!) and it was wonderful. the whole atmosphere is magical. The meal and service were both outstanding. My husband dropped an item of cutlery and they literally picked it up... More

Food and location at its best. The Cliff is one of the places you always hear about when in Barbados. Everyone talks about it. It took some trips before my partner and I finally went in and it was a very succesful night. The food is great, but the location is just suberb. I mean, you can get good food... More

We went for dinner here for my 30th birthday after being recommended by a number of different friends who had also eaten here. We knew it was going to be expensive and so were prepared for the prices. We had also booked ahead by a few days (in low season). The setting is breathtaking, the service incredible and the food...

The prices were ridiculous- starting at $250 Babadian per person for only two courses each. So we chose to have drinks there and ate somewhere else. But the restaurant is absolutely drop dead gorgeous. They offer happy hour and late night cocktails- so don't miss it.

The Cliff is a truly superb experience but it is not about the food, which btw is truly top quality but matched by The Tides. The Cliff is all about the ambiance of a truly remarkable setting and for entertaining the lady in your life in the best possible way. This is our experience (and hopefully helpful tips)....

We went to the Cliff twice when were in Barbados. The food was great both times. It's expensive but the service is excellent and the view is lovely. We both had a dessert called Melting Mercury which was sublime.
