    Nice place, staff ok. Food came in a prompt manner and was nice, except for the wife's main, salmon. Tasteless and dry. I mentioned it to the waiter as I think honest feedback can only be positive. I made it clear we weren't sending it back or not paying for it, and they were ok with that. A very popular place, quite noisy but in a good way. Would recommend when you've been everywhere else

    Tucked away behind Holetown’s Limegrove Mall, Derrière’s location is unassuming but once inside, the genuinely warm and efficient service together with delicious French cuisine really stand out. Cool interior and lively vibe. Highly recommended!

    This was my second time at Derriere in two weeks. The food was excellent, the restaurant very authentic with a lively atmosphere. I will definitely be eating there again and highly recommend it.

    This new French restaurant in the heart of Holetown is a gem! We have been to this restaurant 6 times since the opening, our experience so far has been great! The food is A++. We recently tried the lamb shank and duck leg and it was simply delicious! On other occasions we've had the Louis V burger, the mussels with hand cut fries which is a must try! The Steak and hand cut fries was a generous delicious serving! Their local fish specials have been great too!!!! I highly recommend!!

    Another lovely meal - fois gras was delicious and we both tried something different for mains this time; the duck fell off the bone and was v succulent and the potato was the perfect accompaniment. The Milanese pork was also delicious. The fries tasted very good but could do with being a little crispier. Drinks were spot on as always. Looking forward to the next time!

    Fun vibe, good music excellent service. Delicious bread - haven’t found good bread on the island until now. Onion soup delish, Tapenade delish, tuna tartare just ok very pale in color. Salads were excellent. Cocktails and mocktails excellent. The table we sat at was way too narrow for bread plates, water and drink glasses and appetizers. Table was not very comfortable to be honest. Beef bourguignon was tasty but had some tough pieces to chew which was meh. The shrimp cocktail was cooked nicely but smelled and tasted of sea brine which was really not good at all (tho we have very high standards from New England) Pretty good but not amazing, expected better based on reviews.

    Derrière has the best ambience and food in Limegrove and the best French food in Barbados! Amazing French cuisine with the warmth of Barbadian staff.
