With that said, here are the following restaurants available to every one of the All Inclusive Riu Ocho Rios's multitude of guests:

• Sir Richard: This aforementioned a la carte diner offers gourmet dishes par excellence such as lamb cutlets in rosemary sauce and red snapper fillet with grilled vegetables, which is why the Riu Ocho Rios All Inclusive Resort holds this particular restaurant in high esteem. It mandates reservations and a "long pants" dress code for men.
• Sir John: This dinner a la carte establishment is a two-seater restaurant that can only be accessed via reservation.
• Mamie Bay: This buffet-style restaurant offers lunch and breakfast buffets. Dinnertime at this establishment is also worth the wait, because it transforms itself into an a la carte steak house every night.
• Steak House: The straightforwardly named Steak House provides scrumptious dinners composed of a varied menu such as garnished smoked salmon appetizers, a ten-ounce beef tenderloin main course, and desserts like ice cream or sliced fruit. It's a must-visit diner for sure.
• Saint Ann International Buffet: This eatery with a self-explanatory name offers terrace-style fine dining and a nonsmoking section. It also provides a wonderful sample of the different cuisines of the world. Dinner and breakfast are served here too.
• Tushima: There's a reason why Caribbean beachfront hotels always have Asian restaurants available, and it's most likely because they're in a class of their own. This reservations-only, dress-code-mandating Japanese restaurant is an exclusive one that offers oriental classics like maki-maki and nigiri sushi, stir-fried beef with Chinese mushrooms, and octopus in chili sauce.
• Plantation Restaurant: For those who'd rather not go through the trouble of getting a reservation, then this restaurant is the place to go. It provides satisfying breakfast, lunch, and dinner menus all throughout the day.
• Mandalay: Although this is yet another Asian cuisine establishment, none of the guests have been complaining about its supposed redundancy. The fact that this reservation-required restaurant provides nearly the same menu as Tushima—which allows Asian cuisine fans to go to either of the two restaurants whenever one of them is fully booked—may have something to do with that.
• Piccola Italia: Italians are renowned for their delicious pizza and pasta dishes; therefore, the Piccola Italia continues the tradition by offering genuine Italian fare. Continental breakfasts also available from about nine or ten in the morning to twelve noon.
• Jerk Hut by the Beach: This open-air venue grills Jamaican jerk-seasoned meats (usually chicken, pork, or sausage) by the beach. The sweet smell of grilled and jerked perfection adds a lot to the restaurant's fine dining experience.
• Bars: Here's a list of bars to watch out for within the Riu Ocho Rios's property—the Rastafari swim-up bar, the Reggae pool bar, the Seagrape beach bar, the Dunn's River Plaza bar, the Blue Mountain lounge bar (with terrace), and the Pacha Disco night club (provides complimentary drinks).
