Grand Bahama Island Restaurants

The Grand Bahama dining scene stretches well beyond traditional Bahamian cuisine. The resorts and shopping centers have eateries that serve up everything from West Indian rotis to fine Continental and creative Pacific Rim specialties. For a true Bahamian dining experience, look for restaurants named after the owner or cook—such as Billy Joe's, Geneva's, or Mary Ann's.

A native fish fry takes place every Wednesday evening at Smith's Point, east of Port Lucaya (taxi drivers know the way). Here you can sample fresh fish, sweet-potato bread, conch salad, and all the fixings cooked outdoors at the beach. It's a great opportunity to meet local residents and taste real Bahamian cuisine—and there's no better place than seaside under the pines and palms.

A gratuity or "service charge" (15%) is often added to the bill automatically; be sure to check your total before adding an additional tip.

  • 1. Pier One and East

    $$

    Pier One has one of the most unique settings of any restaurant in Grand Bahama, and two different menus to choose from: sushi or cooked continental fare. Built on stilts above the ocean near Freeport Harbour, it offers one-of-a-kind views of magnificent sunsets, larger-than-life cruise ships departing, and sharks swimming for chum. The East menu is both creative and extensive. Diners can eat inside or outside, but the large tables on the balcony offer the best views of the shark feedings, which happen every hour on the hour starting at 7 pm. For those who prefer their food cooked, the other menu includes grilled fish, vegetable pasta, steaks, and chicken.

  • 2. Sabor Restaurant and Bar

    $$

    The setting makes this restaurant the perfect place for an evening cocktail whether you sit overlooking the Port Lucaya Marina or nestled among the twinkling lights and palm trees around the pool deck. The lunch and dinner menu is a fun fusion of Bahamian and American favorites with tropical twists, such as O.M.G. jalapeño shrimp; jerk, garlic aioli or honey glazed chipotle wings; lemon pepper and shrimp crusted grouper; sesame spiced crusted tuna with an Asian salad, and steaks, burgers, and flatbreads to boot. Be warned that service can sometimes be slow, but staff is friendly, and the view is superb. Happy hour is nightly from 5 to 7.
