Frommer's Review
This theatrical roofed-over deck fronting the beach has a casual atmosphere during the day, which becomes more rock-'n'-roll elegant in the evening. This space, within the Lone Star Hotel, is one of the most sought-after hipster dining spots on Barbados, more hip that The Cliff and a lot more fun. Top chefs cooking for a discerning international clientele turn out tuna tartare with vegetarian spring rolls, Caesar salad with tempura shrimp, blackened mahimahi or dorado or dolphinfish, chicken tikka masala, Caribbean fish pie (especially delectable with its cheesy mashed potatoes), and such fusion dishes as a Thai green king-prawn curry. For the überchic and über-rich, there's a platter that features five kinds of caviar and others with several species of fresh oysters, choices which are dizzylingly expensive but not particularly daunting to the rock-'n'-roll-, media-, and entertainment-industry crowd that mingles here with überupscale Europe.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
