Cayman Islands – Fine Dining
“Ristorante Pappagallo is one of Cayman’s best fine dining establishments, renowned for its menu’s variety and culinary flair. From the moment you step onto the wooden bridge leading to Pappagallo’s entrance, you are transported into another world. Surrounded by dense vegetation and the rural sights and sounds of Grand Cayman’s countryside, Ristorante Pappagallo looks and feels like an upscale tropical outpost from an earlier era, its sturdy wooden structure supporting two huge thatch roofs and large beautifully-woven fans. Arriving after dark, you’ll see the restaurant’s lights which reflect in the lagoon teeming with silvery tarpon and emanate a warm golden glow.
Like many an Italian restaurant, there’s a strong sense of family associated with Ristorante Pappagallo. Many of the loyal and experienced staff have served at the restaurant for years and Chef Marco Signori is passionate about food – freshness and simplicity are the bedrock of his style. Succulent seafood, regional Italian dishes, fresh pasta and handcrafted desserts feature prominently in their seasonally updated menu. Paired with the award-winning wine list featuring over 400 wines, aficionados from around the world and locals in the know return to Ristorante Pappagallo, year after year. Reservations are recommended” – Caymangoodtaste.com

“Beach House in Grand Cayman is an upscale yet casual restaurant offering incredible views of Seven Mile Beach in an inviting and intimate atmosphere at the newly appointed Westin Grand Cayman. The cuisine is centered on coastal living and foods from the Caribbean Sea, Mediterranean and the Southern Asia. These items and influences have been brought together in a celebration of flavour in Beach House’s distinctive “Coastal Cuisine”. Although seafood is the mainstay of the menu, other culinary delights such as duck, beef, lamb and pork are highlighted as well. These influences have been brought together by Executive Chef Sandy Tuason who uses local, sustainable fish and the freshest produce from the Cayman Islands in his signature dishes. The menu is divided into two segments: Smaller Plates and Larger Plates. Smaller Plate choices are on the lighter side and include appetizers, soups and salads. Larger plates are designed for those who prefer a more sizable portion. This distinctive menu style allows customers the flexibility to savour the many flavours and textures of Chef Sandy’s coastal cuisine, all while sipping a delicious glass of wine.
For a unique and lasting dining experience, the Beach House also offers a five course tasting menu with or without wine pairing. The Beach House has a strong wine programme, offering a full selection of mid-range, select and boutique wines from around the world to tempt discerning connoisseurs. Allow the service staff to use their extensive knowledge to recommend the ideal wine pairing to enhance the dining experience. ” – Caymangoodtaste.com
