The Reef Restaurant opened to critical acclaim in May of 1999. Founded by Liz da Mata and Simon Cotton, their long-term friendship and collective work experience has translated into a friendly atmosphere that can be felt the moment you enter their cozy island environment. The restaurant is decorated with rich, warm colours & textures native to the Caribbean Islands, providing an ambience that critics and guests have said "it's truly like being there!" The Reef prides itself on customer service and distinctive Caribbean cuisine in a casual atmosphere. The restaurant is fully licensed and serves typical Caribbean drinks such as Red Stripe beer and Dragon Stout.
