2 Best Restaurants in Les Trois-Îlets, Martinique

This award-winning hotel restaurant is not only good but affordable. The menu changes nightly, but many items do find their way back regularly. The most economical choice is usually the menu du jour, a modestly priced prix-fixe of three courses. Among the main courses, housemade prawn ravioli with lemongrass infused vegetable medley never disappoints. Lobster is always available—as a grilled half lobster with an assortment of sauces. Relatively small, but open-air and overlooking the dramatically lit pool, it is best for outside guests to reserve.

You may not expect a golf course to house a great restaurant, but once you're at this terraced, alfresco location, you will find yourself wowed as you look out on acres of rolling greens and the turquoise blue of the Caribbean beyond. The real accomplishment, however, is on the plates. This chef can elevate a torchon de foie gras or red snapper fillet to fine art. And the food is usually light enough to allow room for one of the rich and satisfying desserts. Theme nights, concerts, and musical entertainment are worth experiencing. Frederic Vasson, the main entertainer here, has opened L’Annex in Marin at the new port.
