One of the best things about island life is all the great restaurants we've gotten to try. Below you'll find our favorite recommendations, as well as a comprehensive list of all the places we've been. We don't take pictures/write posts every time we go out, but a good number of restaurants have blog links that share our experience.
If you have recommendations or favorites you'd like to share, feel free to do so on the comments part of the page. My hope is that this will be helpful to our visiting family/friends, as well as anyone else taking a break from reality on this wonderful island.
Favorites Short List:
1) Sunshine Grill - our number one favorite spot. Great island-y feel and reasonably priced. It's a nice spot for lunch or a casual dinner. Brent recommends the Snapper Sandwich.
2) Agua - delicious food, AMAZING Sunday brunch. For dinner, I recommend the brandy lobster crepes - my favorite meal on island so far!
3) Alfresco - casual dining right on the water. Mostly Italian food - big portions, good prices. Go around 6:15 to get the full beauty of the sunset.
4) Abacus - this is in Camana Bay which is a fun shopping area in Grand Cayman. Brent LOVES the seabass there and recommends it to everyone!
5) Calypso - good seafood and also a pretty view on the water. Best sticky toffee pudding on island (in our humble opinion).
