THE CLIFF
The Cliff Barbados needs little introduction; this award-winning restaurant is not just a Barbadian icon but is revered internationally. It is synonymous with elegance and fine dining at its best. Now under new ownership with an extensive refurbishment, the new culinary director, Michael Worswick, brings 17 years of experience in Michelin Star restaurants and earned a coveted Michelin twice in his own right at The Latymer Restaurant and Gelnapp Castle In Scotland at just 26.
Set in an enviable location at the edge of the water, The Cliff is everything you would imagine: sparkling blue sea with the silhouettes of schools of tarpon gliding through the water, twinkling candlelight enhanced by open flame flambeaux, ambient but en-trend music and impeccable style.
Menu highlights include their raw bar, featuring Maldon Oysters, langoustine and Oscietra, and an extensive sushi selection. In contrast, their a la carte menu showcases international favourites such as Cep Risotto with Australian winter truffle and parmesan and sautéed Foie Gras with pickled apple, hazelnut crumb, sauce Sauternes on toasted brioche to start, or a whole roasted Turbot with garlic butter roasted new potatoes, asparagus, garden salad and hollandaise sauce or Côte de Boeuf, featuring Surrey Farm forerib, onion rings, truffled caesar, triple cooked chips with garlic and parsley butter to be shared by two people. They can cater to various dietary needs, including gluten-free and vegan, and they also offer a prix fixe, which changes frequently.
Reservations are recommended, especially during the winter season.
