I would agree with Spa Retreat. Beautiful resort and view....great staff...super bar...and great food!! The price is really pretty much the same as LTU, Kuyaba, Rockhouse, etc.
Really nice menu with a great variety of options. I don't think you will be disappointed.

We are almost definitely going to go to Blue Mahoe/Spa Retreat, based on all the great recommendations.
I do want to try out Quality's too but I wasn’t under the impression that it had a great view, but we are going to try and get there for another meal.

I've heard the food at Qualify is very good. This from people that cook and are picky eaters.

Pushcart is very good. We ate there twice last week when staying on the cliffs and have been there on previous trips as well. I hesitate to compare it directly to Ivan's since Ivan's seems to compete more with Rockhouse Restaurant, and seems to shoot for a more 'romantic' and 'upscale' feel than I see at Pushcart. Pushcart is casual, comfortable, and seems to specialize in Jamaican dishes (which is one reason we like it) but did not have the wider menu we have seen at Ivan's, Rockhouse, and some others. If Jamaican specialties are what you want then Pushcart is really good and there is live music almost every night.
Enjoy!

You are correct about the view... Quality's is across the street from the water, just a bit down the street from Canoe.

I enjoyed Pushcart, you can get a great table overlooking the ocean on top of the cliffs. A great item to try is the nyammings platter which is four local dishes, curried chicken, curried goat, oxtail and bushman stew. I enjoyed them all.

Ate first time this March at LTU. The food tasted good until I found a very long human hair mixed in with the fish and cheese. When I called waitress over she said that it might be that the cook had just arrived and did not put a hairnet on yet. That was it.

I do not know why I did not said I wanted a replacement, see the manager or that I would not pay. When it came to pay the bill I mentioned about it and she took off the price of a bowl of soup. Also ordered coffee and they just had enough milk for my cup.
When I asked if they could just go down the road to the small grocery store and buy more I was told no.
I have been reading about LTU being so wonderful but not for me.
Ivans is very nice, totally different class in every way.
Go with them for a special on the cliffs evening.

Blue Mahoe is very very good, my second choice would be Xtabi ....looking forward to trying Quality

I want to also point out that, because of its location, Blue Mahoe has a very unique view. To the left its the cliffs and endless water view and to the right its the beach and sparkling lights(if your there after sunset) of 7 mile beach.. Haven't seen that view anywhere else in Negril. Ask for a table right by the wall for best view..
I"m going to spend a few nights at the spa retreat this fall for the first time and Im really looking forward to that view!!

Another vote for Spa Retreat. Stayed there last year and loved it. Plan on going over again for dinner in a few weeks.
