2 Best Restaurants in Turks and Caicos Islands

Aromas redolent of Mediterranean cuisine waft from the open kitchen as you enter this local favorite directly on Turtle Cove. Outdoor seating is on a lovely canal-front patio, or enjoy your meal from a table in the open-air, covered restaurant. The menu offers a small but varied selection of Italian dishes. Veal is prominent, there's also a lovely bruschetta, superb lasagna, and great seafood. The owner personally visits each table, reciting the specials and assisting with wine selection.

For wonderfully traditional Italian food, this restaurant uses fresh heirloom tomatoes and herbs from the garden that surrounds the dining area. The restaurant has two distinct experiences: wood-fired pizza on the ground level and a full menu serving authentic Italian dishes upstairs in what many call the tree house. The pizza oven is fired up from 3 pm for a late-afternoon bite. This property's distant view of Grace Bay Beach has long been obliterated by newer buildings, but they've created a beautiful setting that gets even more special when the sun goes down and the twinkling fairy lights come on.
