Fodor's Expert Review Oliver's

Enjoy a memorable dining experience at Oliver's, the seaside restaurant at Spice Island Beach Resort. Assistant Head Chef Brenda Joseph, a Grenadian, turns out some of the most delicious, savory, and elegant culinary creations that you'll find on this island. The prix-fixe menu, which changes each evening, lets you choose from a pair of appetizers, a hot or cold soup, a salad or sorbet, and a half-dozen entrées—such as roasted rib of beef with rosemary roast potatoes and Shiraz reduction, nutmeg-glazed stuffed chicken breast with cassoulet of vegetables and Cajun gnocchi, or pan-fried snapper with bell pepper mash and pineapple and spring onion salsa—along with one "light" and a couple of vegetarian options. Desserts are made in-house, as are the ice creams and sorbets, and reflect local fruits, flavors, and spices. Service is impeccable, as it is throughout the hotel. Most nights, dinner is accompanied by soft music from a local calypso, reggae, or steel pan band. (No children under five.)
