    At Reef&Beef, our dining experience was delightful. We started with scallops and pork croquettes—both were outstanding. For mains, the pork belly was tender with crispy skin, and the duck breast was juicy and flavorful. Great ambiance and attentive service. Overall, a fantastic spot for seafood and meat lovers.

    The food was fresh, well prepared the seaside view we could see from our seats. The waitstaff was excellent and the service was impeccable. Our server was just the most friendly person, she gave us all the information on the specials and suggested a wine to go with our meal. Though the restaurant was full she was always there if we had any questions. If you are looking for a wonderful evening meal in St. Ives, do not hesitate to get a reservation here. 10/10

    Lovely evening meal at this recently refurbished restaurant. Although the menu does not have a vast selection, all of the options looked good and the Duck breast was excellent. Quite steep stairs to come down from street level and the entrance is slightly difficult to find at the moment due to scaffolding in front of the adjoining shop.
