Fodor's Expert Review Bongos Restaurant

A grand piano and a well-stocked premium bar add to the upscale feeling at this restaurant, with stylish indoor seating and patio tables. The cuisine is a fusion of the foods from the many cultures that have settled in the Caribbean—from Africa, Spain, the Netherlands, France, Portugal, Denmark, Great Britain, and, later, India and China. The resulting melting pot of flavors makes for mouthwatering contemporary cuisine. The seafood paella for two is a good bet, as is the Lime 'n' Thyme grilled chicken breast with ackee, callaloo, and a mango broad-bean sauce. Alternatively, opt for the vegetarian choice such as the ackee, vegetable, and mixed-bean stew with a cilantro-tomato sauce.
