Prime steaks and the day's catch, in the heart of Placencia.

Grilled steak with chimichurri and risotto at Sterling's
Two sides of the menu

From the land. From the sea.

The name says it plainly: steaks from the northern foothills of Belize on one side of the menu, Caribbean seafood on the other.

Grilled steak with red wine reduction

Grass-fed steaks from the northern foothills of Belize, chosen by our chef. Ribeye, filet mignon, New York strip and Chateaubriand for two, grilled or pan-seared to order with your choice of sauce.

Grilled Caribbean lobster

From the Sea

Caribbean lobster in season, whole snapper wrapped in banana leaf, sesame-crusted ahi and, in season, a seafood platter of shrimp, lobster, stone crab and calamari. Ask about the catch of the day.

One of, if not THE BEST meal I have ever had in Belize! We had the Chateaubriand and wow, cooked absolutely to perfection.

This was the best meal on my trip, the staff was very friendly and they had some very good recommendations on what to eat.

This was the best meal on my trip, the staff was very friendly and they had some very good recommendations on what to eat. I got the NY strip steak and the recommendation was to get the seafood risotto with it. Out of this world, very fresh and cooked perfectly. Next time I am in placencia I will be making a trip back to the sterling for sure!

I feel like we found a hidden gem. … They delivered and then some! … Service was amazing. … Don't sleep on this place.

I feel like we found a hidden gem. I did a lot of research in travel groups before coming to Placencia and no one mentioned Sterling's but the Valentine's Day menu was too appealing to consider anywhere else. They delivered and then some! Soup, pasta, steak, lobster, all cooked to perfection. Berry tiramisu light and refreshing to end our rich meal. Even the sweet potato mash and green beans had a little extra. Service was amazing. And price was very fair considering the meal. I missed a picture of the seafood ravioli but it was delicious and looked just as amazing as all the other plates. Don't sleep on this place.

Espresso martini on the veranda at night
Evenings at Sterling's

Stay for one more.

As the sun goes down on Main Street, the wine comes out and the kitchen fires up the grill. Settle in on the veranda, order a steak cooked exactly the way you like it, and finish with an espresso martini.
