    Our recent visit to Reef&Beef was nothing short of exceptional. From start to finish. For starters, we opted for the soup and scallops, which set the tone beautifully. The soup was comforting, perfectly seasoned, and brimming with flavor, while the scallops were cooked to perfection. For mains, we enjoyed the ribeye steak and pork belly. The ribeye was beautifully marbled, cooked exactly as requested.Meanwhile, the pork belly was indulgently tender with a crisp, golden crust that added the perfect contrast of textures. To round off the evening, we had the crème brûlée and sticky toffee pudding for dessert. The crème brûlée was a flawless classic, with its creamy custard and perfectly caramelized top. The sticky toffee pudding was indulgent and comforting. The atmosphere was warm and inviting.Highly recommended for anyone looking for an elevated dining experience!

    Excellent food and lovely atmosphere, really enjoyed our evening apart from the overload of Christmas music! A break from all the Christmas songs would have been welcome. Thank you for a great evening

    "During my recent visit to Reef&Beef,I was impressed by their delicious and varied menu. For starters, the pork croquettes were crispy and flavorful, while the scallops were perfectly seared and tender. Moving on to the mains, the duck breast was cooked to perfection with a flavorful, crispy skin, and the rack of lamb was succulent and well-seasoned. Overall, the meal was delightful, complemented by a welcoming ambiance and attentive service. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience.

    We had a fantastic dining experience at Reef & Beef! The steak was cooked to perfection—juicy, tender, and full of flavor. The seafood pasta was equally impressive, with fresh, perfectly cooked seafood and a rich, flavorful sauce. The combination of surf and turf was a real treat. The service was attentive and friendly, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. It’s clear the team at Reef & Beef takes pride in every detail. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a memorable meal. We’ll definitely be back!
