Top choice in Tobago
On a balcony high above Buccoo Bay, with handsome ocean views, this fine-dining restaurant offers an upscale take on Caribbean cuisine: feast on Creole shrimp with cassava grits and wilted spinach, slow-grilled rack of lamb with couscous and tahini or blackened fish with coconut sauce and caramelized plantain. Great for a romantic dinner, or a perfectly made cocktail.
The air-conditioned indoor dining room is perfect when the sun is beating down over Buccoo Bay.
