  • 1. Serendipity

    $$$$

    This stylish restaurant occupies an old Creole home whose charming enclosed patio offers lovely views of Basseterre and the bay. The interior lounge is even more conducive to romantic dining—with cushy sofas, patterned hardwood floors, porcelain lamps, and African carvings—and the ambitious menu reflects co-owner-chef Alexander James's peripatetic postings: crispy fried Brie, spring rolls with plum dipping sauce, mahimahi with a cheese-and-basil crust, teriyaki-glazed tiger shrimp.

    • Affordable lunches with gargantuan tapas-style selections

    • Well-considered wine list

  • 2. Spice Mill

    $$$$

    The cuisine at this beachfront beauty references the Caribbean's melting pot of African, French, English, Iberian, Asian, and Dutch influences. But the kitchen and barefoot-chic bar, which is open daily and serves light snacks, also adopt a locavore philosophy, sourcing as much as possible from Kittitian farmers and fishermen (who might troop through the restaurant with 30 just-caught snapper). Hibiscus lovers enjoy the spirits made on-site with local sorrel found throughout the drink menu. Lunch is considerably cheaper and more island-flavored, albeit often overrun by cruise ship passengers.

    Known For

    • Lively clientele
    • Lovely beachfront setting
    • Fresh fish dishes (try the Panko-crusted crab cakes or seafood risotto)
  • 3. The Pavilion

    $$$$

    Imagine a semi-alfresco cathedral of raw limestone coral overlooking a sandy, palm-fringed crescent: that's this ritzy Christophe Harbour beach club (open to nonmembers for dinner only), whose soaring interior contrasts a curved exhibition kitchen, streamlined bar stools, and abstract pendant lamps with sea fans and driftwood, antique settees, and 19th-century black-and-white photos of island scenes. The kitchen similarly combines tradition with innovation, juxtaposing textures, flavors, and colors so that even "traditional" fare like conch fritters is goosed with pickled ginger, passion-fruit coulis, and swirls of jerk mayo. The wine list features some surprising bargains, especially among white varietals, and you can finish your meal in style with one of a dozen aged rums.

  • 4. Arthur's

    $$$

    Named for the beloved late owner of the Golden Lemon Inn, this breezy, beachfront, semi-alfresco eatery on the black sand of Dieppe Bay makes a perfect spot to watch the colorful fishing boats ply the waters. The marine decor—dried sea fans and ship's lanterns—suggest what's best on the sea-to-fork menu, though landlubbers can happily dig into burgers or pulled pork sandwiches.

  • 5. Carambola Beach Club

    $$$$

    At this ultra-stylish restaurant, which unfurls sensuously down South Friar's Bay, more casual lunches take full advantage of the beachfront setting, with white tents and hedonistic beach beds (often overflowing with cruise ship passengers). But nighttime is truly spectacular, as outdoor fiber-optic fountains enhance the visual flair of the vast, sleek-but-not-slick interior, replete with eat-in wine cellar and tile-and-layered-wood sushi bar. Sterling starters include the creative maki rolls. Seafood such as herb-marinated grouper in caper cream is masterfully executed; nothing at Carambola is overcooked. The sole letdown is the wine list. Although it's the island's largest, it lacks imagination; however, the by-the-glass selections are at least reasonably priced.

  • 6. Cooper's Bar

    $

    Barely more than a royal blue shack, dressed with vivid murals of cavorting monkeys and replete with a chicken coop, Cooper's (aka Glenda's Place after the owner) is the quintessential local dining experience—as good a place as any to try Caribbean staples like stewed mutton or macaroni pie. There are only two picnic tables, so most locals order their food to go; if you stay, ask for takeout containers anyway (the lids come in handy to repel flies in between bites).

  • 7. Fisherman's Wharf

    $$$

    Part of the Ocean Terrace Inn, this extremely casual waterfront eatery is decorated with sail rigging, aqua-colored wave murals, illuminated water features, and mosaic work that gleams like fish scales in a stylish open kitchen. Try the conch chowder, followed by fresh grilled lobster or other shipshape seafood; finish with the memorable passion-fruit cheesecake drizzled with nutmeg-tinged sauce.

    Wigley Ave., Basseterre, St. Kitts, St. Kitts and Nevis

  • 8. Marshall's

    $$$

    The pool area of Horizons Villa Resort is transformed into a stylish eatery thanks to smashing ocean views, potted plants, serenading tree frogs, and elegant candlelit tables. Jamaican chef Verral Marshall fuses ultra-fresh local ingredients with global influences. Artfully plated, most dishes are more along the lines of what you'd find at a steakhouse (grilled ribeye), but the Caribbean portion of the menu is where dishes shine, like the curry chicken with pineapple and coconut.

  • 9. Sprat Net

    $$

    This simple cluster of picnic tables—an island hot spot sheltered by a brilliant-turquoise corrugated-tin roof and decorated with driftwood, life preservers, photos of coastal scenes, and fishnets—sits on a sliver of sand. There's nothing fancy on the menu: just grilled fish, lobster, ribs, and chicken served with mountains of coleslaw and peas and rice. But the fish is amazingly fresh: the fishermen–owners heap their catches on a center table from which you choose your own dinner, then watch it grilled to your specification before dining family-style on paper plates. No wonder cars line up along the road, creating an impromptu jump-up.

  • 10. The Fisherman's Village

    $$$$

    This casual eatery at the Park Hyatt has a splendid dockside setting looking out toward Nevis. Fittingly, the seafood is so fresh that you half expect it to jump onto your patio table (you can see it being prepared in the open kitchen), and the handsome space cannily incorporates traditional ceramic pots, lobster traps, and other fishing implements.

  • 11. The Kitchen

    $$$

    This stunner in the so-called greathouse—the soaring stone-steel-and-wood space of Belle Mont Farm at Kittitian Hill—serves sustainable seasonal treats, sourced from the farm itself and other local suppliers who practice ethical farming, fishing, and animal husbandry. Begin your evening with ultra-fresh, handcrafted cocktails in the handsome Mill Bar, and then repair to the main dining room or Caribbean-view terrace for an array of delightful dinner options.
