“Good Location, cute atmosphere, so-so food....”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 January 2010

Located in the heart of the St. Lawrence Gap, nice outdoor seating, good people watching since the seating area is elevated. The service was good, a little slow but very courteous wait staff. The food...jusk ok. My appetizer was excellent I had the smoked marlin salad - a very unique combination of flavors that blended together nicely! After the app I was excited to try the main course, only to be disappointed! My coconut shrimp was tough and overly breaded and, did not have much flavor to them. The sauce was pretty good, and it was much needed for the bland shrimp. I think that there are many better dining choices in Barbados in that price range and I will not be returning.

“Nice atmosphere. Food was nothing to write home about.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 January 2010

We went to this restaurant with our three children based on the reviews we had read. I thought it was a bit pricey and the food was a bit overdone. (i.e. fish and lambchops). There were very few traditional Bajan dishes on this menu which we prefer. Service was a bit slow.

“A great find in The Gap”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 January 2010

We ate in the Harlequin Restaurant on the last night of our holiday and having read previous reviews, we were not disappointed.
Even though we hadn't booked and it was clearly very busy, we were told that a table would be ready within minutes so had a drink in the bar. Everyone was extremely friendly with a varied menu from which to choose. We both had Flying Fish (never get fed up with this meal) and were too full to contemplate anything else.
The evening was an extremely pleasant experience and judging by the banter with the (presumably) owner, it appeared that several guests were repeat customers which is always a good sign. On other nights when we'd walked past, the restaurant was always busy.
One very tiny flaw which I'm sure wouldn't stop us eating here again. We did ask for just 1 glass of wine and even though the waitress had said " It was on it's way", the wine didn't actually materialise until half way through the meal.
A great place to eat, go!

We went to Harlequin at St Lawrence Gap twice during our two week stay in Barbados.
This was the only retaurant that we went back to. It has a very good vairied menu.
The staff are very friendlythe service excellent and the food could not be faulted.
This was also good value for money for Barbados. Look forward to going back again.
