5 Best Restaurants?
 
Hello,
Going to T&C in March. This is my 5 day line up for dinner. Let me know if I have made the best choice.
Coyaba, Baci, Graces Cottage, Simba & Anacaona.
Thanks!

you need Hemmingways and Tiki Hut in the mix. Tiki Hut is casual, but I wouldn't miss it. I would substitute Coyaba and Baci, and add Magnolia's.

We went to Baci, and while it was good, I agree with blamona that it would be nice to have a more casual dinner at Tiki Hut instead.

If and when you make res. at Hemingway's, ask to be seated closer to the water.

I think you should try to work in Grace Bay Bistro, the restaurant at Sibonne. It has the best view along Grace Bay, and the food is wonderful. We liked it better than Grace's Cottage and Baci. They have an excellent Sunday brunch that is a great value (I think it's $12 and includes mimosa or champagne). We ate there 3 times during our trip because we enjoyed it so much.

I would go to Coyaba, Bay Bistro at Sibonne, Magnolia, Aqua in Turtle Cove, and Anacona. You can do Tiki Hut, Hemmingways and Da Conch Shack (Bugaloos) in Blue Hills for lunch. You can do Italian in the states that is better than Baci--Simba and Graces cottage are up and down. Our two favorites by far are Coyaba and Magnolia

anacona is oh so romantic. they have this unusual ourdoor area. all white and loungy to hang out in with a cocktail before dinner, which is served under a huge palapa.
aqua bar at turtle cove marina.
lunch at bugaloo's conch shack on the blue hills hwy.

Tiki Hut is casual but a great place, maybe try for lucnh? Hemingways too.

ttt- any new additions?

CarlaM:
My 5 choices would be
Coyaba best food on island
Maganolia's, best food, view combination
Bay Bistro, nice atmosphere great dinners
Hemmingways, a little less expensive then above, and best setting
Tiki Hut, the most casual, nice setting, great casual food.
If any days left over, try Grace's Cottage then Anocoana.

We enjoyed Gecko Grille at Ocean Club.Anaconea is great to relax & have a drink but forget eating there. Even getting drinks & desserts we waited for an extremely long time but the atmosphere is gorgeous. I prefer more casual but a drink will suffice.

We ate at Iguana's a couple of times and experienced great food, service and excellent drinks. Dining is inside or outside on a patio. I think it was located in the Salt Mills Plaza so you don't have a water view. I have read there is entertainment some evenings which we didn't have when we were there (late Nov/early Dec). Everyone raves about Magnolia. Unfortunatley my experience there wasn't that great. Did go back again for drinks to watch the sunset. People either love this place or they don't. Hope you post a review. Going back again later this year and would like to know what you think about Magnolia's or other restaurants. The golf course is a good place to go for reasonable drinks and they have an interesting menu.

I second Iguanas. They had the most fab mojitos!

We loved Baci and Coco Bistro.

Also really enjoyed the Aqua Bar for something middle of the road.

Good food at a good value there.
