Fodor's Expert Review Bonito

Combining cuisines from France, Peru, and all over the Americas, Bonito delivers a spectrum of artistically assembled flavors, textures, and aromas that you'd find challenging to locate elsewhere. Located on a hill overlooking Gustavia harbor, the restaurant indulges you with big white canvas couches for lounging, tables around the sides, an open kitchen, and three bar areas. The specialty is ceviche, in many varieties that are prettily arrayed on poured-glass platters. Traditionalists might like the grilled octopus or foie gras. Carnivores love the rack of lamb and Black Angus beef. The dessert menu has primarily French pastry classics, but the restaurant is also famous for its tres leches cake.
