    The chef and his brigade whip up a Mediterranean-inspired, organic, farm-to-table menu at this relaxed beachfront spot that's popular with locals and visitors. Mains such as roasted pork or whole fish are paired with seasonal vegetables and delicious hand-cut fries. There's also a tropically spirited and lively bar with weekly live music and intimate events. Pets are welcome, which is a rarity in Barbados. Shoes are optional.

    $$$$

    At the tiny but chic Lone Star Boutique Hotel, a short drive north of Holetown, the finest local ingredients are turned into gastronomic delights. Lunchtime brings tasty salads, sandwiches, and wood-fired pizzas served in the oceanfront bar; after sunset, the casual daytime atmosphere turns trendy. Start with open wild mushroom and butternut squash ravioli or crispy coconut prawns with mango-chili sauce, followed by grilled yellowfin tuna with warm crab-and-potato salad, herb-crusted rack of lamb, saltfish and Scotch bonnet risotto, or dozens of other land, sea, and vegetarian dishes.

  • 5. The Tides

    $$$$

    Perhaps the most intriguing feature of this stunning setting—besides the sound of waves crashing onto the shore just feet away—is the row of huge tree trunks growing right through the dining room. The food is equally dramatic, as a contemporary twist is given to fresh seafood, filet of beef, rack of lamb, and other top-of-the-line main courses by adding inspired sauces and delicate vegetables and garnishes. A full vegetarian menu is also available. Save room for the little sticky toffee pudding—definitely worth the calories.

    Overlooking the Platinum Coast, the seaside views at this exotic locale are astonishing.

Before or after dinner, sip a cocktail at the breathtaking bar and lounge as you enjoy the ultra-modern and chic interior design.

  • 7. The Mews

    $$$$

    Once the private home of actress Minnie Driver's dad, the front room is now an inviting bar; an interior courtyard is an intimate open-air dining area; and the second floor is a maze of small dining rooms and balconies. But it's the food—classic, bistro, or tapas—that draws the visitors. Main dishes vary from sweet potato gnocchi or steak frites to curried rabbit and pork belly risotto; braised lamb shank presented on a bed of buttery cabbage, green Thai shrimp curry, and catch-of-the-day are menu classics. Some call the atmosphere avant-garde; others call it quaint.
