RSR Arnos Vale Tel: 639-2881 Dinner in the 'Plantation House' and lunch buffet at the beach restaurant. Quality and service are highly erratic and recent reports have been far more negative than positive. Very high prices. |  |
RSR Buccoo Village Tel: 631-1266 El Pescador is a new fish restaurant, located on the terrace of Miller's Guesthouse just before Buccoo jetty. Open all day, the restaurant serves breakfast, lunch and dinner and the great location makes it ideal for sundowners. Website: www.leos-pescador.com |  |
RSR Pleasant Prospect Tel: 635-1728 The Fish Pot is located in Pleasant Prospect (next to Marie's Place). Open for lunch Monday to Friday. Dinner on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. Cuisine always delicious. Website: thefishpot.blogspot.com |  |
RSR Buccoo Village Tel: 639-0940 Italian cuisine. Great dining hosted by a highly entertaining owner. Full à la carte menu with appetizers from TT$25 and main courses from TT$55. The 250+ Italian wines are the restaurant's real strength. Open Monday to Saturday (closed Sunday) from 6:30-10:00pm. Website: www.latartarugatobago.com |  |
RSR Shirvan Road, Mount Pleasant Tel: 631-0121 Average catering. Nicely presented, but everything rather pretentious. Menu prices on the high side. Extortionate prices for truly awful plonk. It is clear that nobody at the restaurant knows the first thing about wine. Attractive building in lovely garden but mossies are said to be a problem during the wet season. |  |
RSR Auchenskeoch Road, Grange Tel: 660-8879 Local restaurant, located between Buccoo Junction and Carnbee. Unpretentious Creole-fusion catering. Pleasant atmosphere. Large cocktail selection. This pleasant little restaurant is one of our favourites. The food has never let us down and you don't leave feeling you've paid over-the-odds for a mediocre experience. |  |
RSR Shirvan Road, Buccoo Tel: 639-9481 General reports are very mixed. Service can be slow and unfriendly and ambience poor as the restaurant is often empty. The included service charge covers "silverware, linen and glasses" and staff gratuities are not included. Open every day from 6pm. Website: www.enchantedwaterstobago.com |  |
RSR Villas at Stonehaven, Grafton Tel: 639-0361 Lovely setting overlooking Stonehaven Bay. Excellent international cuisine and wine. Somewhat expensive for Tobago, but general consensus appears to be that it is worth it. Website: www.stonehavenvillas.com |  |
RSR Old Grafton Beach Road, Grafton Tel: 639-0686 Generally regarded as one of the 'best' restaurant on the island, the restaurant sadly only performs well when the owners are present. Reservations essential for dinner. Open Every Day. Breakfast 8-10:45am, Lunch noon-3:30pm, Dinner 6:30-10pm. Website: www.seahorseinntobago.com |  |
RSR Grafton Beach, Stonehaven Bay This beach bar/restaurant belongs to the Grafton Beach Hotel and Le Grand Courlan, but is open to non-residents for daytime drinks and light meals. Very poor quality food at inflated prices, with poor service to match. Given the stunning location, this is truly a lost opportunity. |  |
RSR Arnos Vale Road, Plymouth Tel: 639-1476 Mainly Creole meals. Reports have always been less than encouraging. Certainly not enough to tempt us to give it a try. |  |
RSR Shelbourne Street, Plymouth A small buffet-style local restaurant, open for lunch, that serves authentic local dishes. Initial reports are very encouraging. |  |
RSR Buccoo Road, Carnbee Reasonable local luncheons and light snacks in the evening. |  |
RSR Shelbourne Street, Plymouth A relatively new restaurant in Plymouth. Reports indicate they offer good-value decent-quality Chinese food either in their own air-conditioned restaurant or for take-away. Ready-made buffet or full menu. |  |
RSR Auchenskeoch Road, Grange Tel: 639-9941 A small Chinese restaurant offering both an eat-in and take-away service. Far from the excellent standards of the best Peking and Chinese fare available in the UK, but a useful facility for villa-dwellers in the Mount Irvine area. |  |
RSR North Street, Plymouth Tel: 639-1406 Peter's Restaurant & Bar is located on the Plymouth headland, near the sport field/jazz festival. Owner Eddy is a delightful gentleman and previously a chef at the Arnos Vale hotel. The premises are very unprepossessing and don’t be put off by the unlit entrance past Eddy’s bungalow and into the restaurant in his back yard. Worth a try! |  |
RSR Mount Irvine Beach Facilities Useful light lunch spot, specialising in Bake & Fish, burgers, etc. |  |
RSR Buccoo Strip Plaza, Buccoo Tel: 399-6023 A small restaurant (limited seating) and take-away offering Venezuelan cuisine. Open for breakfast and lunch, Tuesday to Saturday, 7am - 3pm. |  |
RSR Pleasant Prospect Take away pizzas. I once said that the best thing about this establishment is the ABM cash dispenser immediately adjacent. Positive reviews from some readers persuaded me to try it again in 2005, 2006 and 2007 and confess that quality had improved considerably - in fact the TT$40 medium Hawaiian was both great value and tasty. |  |
