Cayman Restaurant Tip:
ALWAYS book directly with each Cayman Islands restaurant. Never go through
concierges, agents, or any third party. Eliminate middle man confusion,
establish a rapport with the restaurant and take advantage of many special
savings and discounts.

Most restaurants in Cayman and particularly Grand Cayman restaurants are astonishing on so many levels that they reside in a league all of their own. Scant few destinations can compete with Cayman restaurants supreme and outstanding combination of breathtaking ambiance, diverse gourmet and unique local cuisine with consistently friendly and professional service. While every major city has its share of excellent restaurants, not many can deliver a refreshing tropical climate; breathtaking ocean views; abundant locally caught seafood; warm family-like hospitality and award winning chefs from over 20 regions. With over 200 Caymen restaurants located in Grand Cayman's meager 200 square miles, Cayman restaurants uniquely capture a tremendously diverse mixture of consistently spectacular atmosphere and diverse award winning cuisine; all with rich blends of culture and warm hospitality. Before proceeding to more extensive Cayman restaurant information, we offer a brief overview of the Cayman restaurants we feel best suited to fulfill many of the most popular requests we see posted on our Cayman Restaurant Forums. Picks are based on Cayman Restaurant Forum feedback and our extensive Cayman Restaurant selection criteria. |

Selecting from over 200 Cayman restaurants with the average visit lasting a mere week or two can prove a painstaking task and choosing a Cayman restaurant that does not match your precise preferences can be both costly and disappointing. Using an extensive checklist, Activity Guide strives to eliminate the guesswork to ensure that all of your Cayman restaurant experiences provide your most cherished memories, while deriving the absolute highest value and satisfaction from your Cayman restaurant budget.
As a true Cayman guide, we pride ourselves on making visitors aware of what we feel to represent the absolute best Cayman restaurants. All of our Cayman restaurants have undergone vigorous inspections and qualifications — not only by Activity Guide but through thousands of reviews at our Cayman Restaurant Forums. Our goal is to ensure your ultimate satisfaction with each and every Cayman restaurant visit and to that end we have compiled a listing of our most highly valued Cayman restaurants, as well as the editor’s personal Cayman Restaurant Picks of the Week based on the Cayman restaurant dishes most requested at our Cayman Restaurant Forums.
By carefully matching each Cayman Restaurant to your individual preferences, you will derive the utmost satisfaction from every Cayman restaurant experience. Put simply, don't visit one of Cayman's finest seafood restaurants and order steak and potatoes; odd as that may sound, we see it happen all the time because most visitors cannot possibly remain appraised of the ever changing specialties at every Cayman restaurant—that's what Activity Guide is for!
 |
To facilitate this task we've created a handy Editor's weekly Picks as a basic general Cayman restaurant guide to at least ensure that you are getting your favorite dishes from the Cayman restaurants most likely to prepare them to your liking. But to maximize your Cayman restaurant experiences we encourage you to learn as much as possible about the different Cayman restaurants—both here and in our Cayman Restaurant Forums to ensure absolute satisfaction at every Cayman restaurant during your entire vacation in the Cayman Islands.
Our recommended Cayman restaurants represent a broad spectrum of what our extensive evaluation process and Cayman Restaurant Forum feedback deem to be the absolute highest valued Cayman restaurants. This does not mean that we only select five-star Cayman restaurants! Besides budgetary constraints, many occasions are better suited to more casual and affordable restaurants. When you view our Cayman Restaurant Guide, you will see that we have compiled a diverse listing of the most highly valued Cayman restaurants in every category.
When evaluating Cayman restaurants, we consider many factors beyond a single dining experience. Our Cayman restaurant criteria is extensive and designed to provide the most consistently outstanding Cayman restaurants to our readers and members.
Cayman Restaurant Criteria:
For all Cayman attractions, properties and restaurants, we utilize an
extensive checklist of every conceivable parameter to produce a
spreadsheet, which we then input to a database and sort to derive the most highly valued
establishments for every category. For instance, we do not count romance as a factor in our casual affordable Cayman restaurants.
When evaluating Cayman restaurants our criteria include (in random order):
☼ Quality of food ☼ Variety of food ☼ Knowledge of waiters ☼ Attitude of waiters ☼ Location ☼ Ambiance ☼ Romance ☼ Seating Options ☼ Chef awards ☼ Restaurant awards ☼ Wine quality, storage and selection ☼ Distance between seats/tables ☼ Attentiveness of waiters ☼ General cleanliness ☼ Music or entertainment ☼ Portion size vs. price ☼ Air quality |
☼ Ambient sound ☼ Cleanliness of utensils ☼ Cleanliness of kitchen ☼ Insect maintenance ☼ Health factors ☼ Safety factors ☼ Cultural significance ☼ Food temperature when served ☼ Decor/Ambiance ☼ Wow factor ☼ Presentation of food ☼ Quality/variety of desserts ☼ Photographic Value ☼ Reservation time adherence ☼ Overall value ☼ House specials ☼ Temperature and ventilation |
We use the same extensive method to evaluate every establishment we recommend— from dive operations to condominiums, changing the parameters to accommodate each establishment.
By spending a little time reading the Cayman restaurant material here and in our forums; watching the videos; seeing the pictures and reading the Caymen restaurant reviews, you will gain a thorough understanding of the wonderful restaurants in the Cayman Islands and be well prepared to make the best restaurant selections based on your individual preferences. You will spend at least 10-20% less and derive substantially greater satisfaction from your Cayman restaurant experiences than other visitors, even on your very first visit to the Cayman Islands!
We wish you a Bon Appétit and a wonderful Cayman Islands Vacation!
