Marvelous location. Fabulous style. Terrific food. With these attractions, you would think that The Cliff Bar and Grill would be extremely popular.
And you'd be right! But before I go any further, I'd better say that dinner reservations here are definitely advisable. Tables do get snapped up very quickly and for very good reasons...The setting, as the name suggests, is breathtaking.
It's high up on the mountainous section of the ring-road between Chaweng and Lamai, and looks down upon huge natural boulders next to the water's edge and across a picturesque bay to a tropical headland.
And being open from midday makes The Cliff an ideal spot for stopping for lunch too when you can really appeciate the surrounding natural beauty.
Choose between the 50-seat marble-floored interior section with its abundant 'birds of paradise' plants, hand-painted ceramics and its designer dŽcor, or the 28-seat terrace area outside under the stars. Both spots are equally spacious with heavy wooden tables and chairs giving a very 'solid' feel to the place.
And next, the food. It's Mediterranean, with the accent on Portuguese, Italian and Spanish. And although the menu isn't large, there're plenty of choices in many categories.
But most importantly, and this is where the magic ingredient comes in, it's all prepared and presented by owner and master chef, Bradley Munns.
Samui Mostwanted recommendation!
Update: If been there again and the food was fantastic! I recommend the Filet Steak and the Creole Chicken! If you want to enjoy the amazing view you´ll need an reservation!
