Nassau's most celebrated formal restaurant, set in the colonial Graycliff Hotel on West Hill Street. The food is Continental-European with a Bahamian accent — Caribbean lobster tail, grouper with green-mango chutney, foie gras — and the setting is unmatched in the city: gas-lit gardens, antique-furnished dining rooms, a cellar tour included with dinner.
Expensive by any standard. Reservations essential. Tie not required but jackets fit the room. The attached cigar factory is open to visitors during the day — Graycliff makes its own brand of premium cigars on the property.
