Frommer's Review

With its verdant plants and big windows, Barbade looks like an oversize greenhouse. It offers competent, well-flavored cuisine that's fairly priced, particularly compared to many of the more expensive establishments nearby. Menu items include sole meunière, grilled dorado, stuffed oysters, a hefty chunk of baked goat cheese with a crisp outer skin, and the chef's pride, freshwater crayfish in puff pastry.

About Our System

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.
