Fine Dining in Bermuda

 
 
Fine dining in Bermuda is an opportunity to dress up elegantly, because most such restaurants would require that you dress up formally. For example men are required to wear jackets with ties. After all you will be part of an elegant ambience where starting from service, food, interior to settings are all delicately designed. 
 
However dress code may differ for some restaurants in the island. So better ask while reserving your table. Reservation however is a must. 
 
 
 
You will notice that most fine dining restaurants are part of luxury hotels. Does that indicate something? Yes, you need to go with a loaded wallet. However they strive to offer an experience which you will remember for long. So if it's your special occasion or you want to experience the elite dining life in Bermuda, then certainly try one out. 
 
Here are some of the most loved fine dining options in Bermuda (visit the links for detailed reviews): 
 
(Bailey's Bay in Hamilton Parish, Specialty: French & Continental) 
Nestled in a 17th-century manor in Bailey’s Bay, Tom Moore’s Tavern blends historic charm with gourmet island cuisine and fine wines. Signature dishes like lobster thermidor and rockfish pair perfectly with its romantic, candlelit ambience. Open Tuesday to Saturday for dinner; reservations recommended. 
 
(Part of Fairmont Southampton Hotel, Specialty: Steaks) 
Overlooking the Jews Bay, the award winning Waterlot Inn has been known as one of the best steakhouses in the island. The view of sunset from here is something special. 
 
Housed in a 17th-century waterfront tavern, it offers timeless ambience, premium steaks, and refined island dining. You will love its candlelit charm, sunset dockside cocktails, and attentive service, making it one of Bermuda’s most iconic fine-dining experiences. 
 
(At Rosewood Tucker's Point Hotel in Hamilton Parish, Specialty: Bermudian) 
Great elegant ambience and eye catching marine murals by Eurasian artist Gerard Henderson. Some of the greatest collections of wine. Lovely view of Harrington Sound from the outdoor terrace. 
 
(At Newstead Bellmont Hills Hotel in Paget, Specialty: Local Seafood) 
Great view of Hamilton harbor and the city line beyond, wonderful sunset view and authentic French cuisine as you dine al fresco or inside. The menu is quite extensive, and wine selections are excellent. 
 
(At The Reefs Hotel in Southampton, Specialty: Seafood, Western) 
This was the erstwhile Ocean Echo restaurant. It offers lovely views of the south shore waters (perhaps one of the best in the island), large windows, elegant greenish blue interior, choice of al fresco dining on open terrace and great seafood are the reasons to go for it. The private beach looks gorgeous when it's lit up at nights. 
 
(At Bellmont Hills Golf Club in Warwick, Specialty: American, Sushi, Asian) 
Lovely view of the golf course and beyond the Great Sound water area. Take a window side table. 
 
(On Front Street Hamilton, Specialty: Seafood) 
A sophisticated restaurant often frequented by businessmen and politicians. With cedar paneling and brass fittings, the restaurant looks elegant. It gives a choice of dining inside, or alfresco on a terrace overlooking the harbor, in a private dining room, or in the bar lounge. Nice cocktails and wine. Other than seafood, you get steaks and meat dishes as well. 
 
(On Front Street Hamilton, , Specialty: Steaks)  X Closed 
A great steakhouse which replaced the earlier one that was equally famous. The first thing to grab would be the little sofa seating at one corner of the upstairs terrace... lovely view of the harbor and the Front street below. 
 
(Located off Front Street in Hamilton, Specialty: Italian) 
This is  certainly the King of all Italian restaurants in Bermuda and one of the oldest ones. The dining room ambience is elegant with large chandeliers hanging from the ceiling. Or dine al fresco at the terrace upstairs. 
 
(Western part of Hamilton, Specialty: Steakhouse and Western Cuisine) 
View of the harbor, choice of private dining, excellent food, homely service and attention to details are its strength. 
 
(At Hotel Hamilton Princess & Beach Club, Specialty: Mediterranean)  X Closed 
View of the harbor from the terrace is wonderful. Island inspired food. 
 
(At Royal Palms Hotel in outskirts of Hamilton, Specialty: Seafood) 
With antique porcelain, armed chairs, exquisite paintings and sketches on the walls and soothing greenish interior, this is an upscale elegant restaurant housed in a colonial building and in a quiet garden setting. 
 
(Hamilton, Specialty: Italian, Seafood, Sushi) 
Wonderful view of the harbor through its large windows. There is a newly renovated outdoor terrace overlooking the harbor. The Sushi is excellent.
