Bermuda Restaurants and Dining Choices

Out of Bermudian dishes, fish chowder, wahoo steaks, shark hash, mussel pie, sherry peppers, Hoppin' John (black eyed peas and rice), and the tender spiny Bermuda lobsters are some of our favorites.

If you like fish meals, the seafood, especially Bermuda rockfish is quite excellent. However, you need to ask and ensure that the local fishers have caught those on the same day and therefore are fresh. A lot of frozen fish and almost always meat which is imported, are kept in cold storage by many Bermuda restaurants.

In general, we have found that dining in Bermuda is more expensive than in the U.S or Canada. And you really need to know the right Bermuda restaurants to get innovative gourmet dishes.

Let me forewarn you that all restaurants in Bermuda are not as great as they might claim to be. But some are just fantastic. My list of Bermuda restaurants are those which we think are the best of the lot and stand out from the rest in terms of quality, ambience and service.

Many of the Bermuda restaurants and pubs tend to be a little formal. Some of them expect the men to wear jackets in the evening while women in general can be in casuals. It’s always a good idea to ask for the dress code at the time of making reservations.
