Tobago Paradise Travel and Grill

Reviewed By Leunig13

This is a lovely little restaurant overlooking the water. We ate here for dinner and watched a couple of local fishermen in their boats while the sun set over the Caribbean Sea. It was beautiful and picturesque.When you come here everyone recommends the lobster - for good reason. The lobster is amazing! It’s freshly grilled in a light butter sauce and cooked to perfection. I had a mid sized lobster which is heaps for one person. For starters my husband had the garlic bread and I ordered the prawn cocktail. Rather than baguettes, the garlic bread is several toasted buns lathered with garlic butter. They were very tasty. The prawn cocktail is also slightly unconventional as it’s coleslaw topped with pan fried shrimp in a lovely sauce. My husband loved these.For main, my husband had fish and chips. The fish is fried in a coating of seasoned breadcrumbs rather than a traditional wet batter. We also had a serve of wedges which was a substantial portion and very tasty.For dessert I finished off with a coconut ice cream which was made by the owners auntie. It was delicious!Service is great and the lovely owner who is originally from Shepherd’s Bush, London is both personable and very welcoming. The restaurant itself is tiny, with rustic charm and only has four or five tables.Overall it was well priced with the total bill coming to around 500 TTD (@ £60) which is amazing value for two starters, two mains including a good sized lobster and dessert. There are several things worth noting when you eat here:1. The restaurant only opens if someone books a day in advance. We weren’t aware of this and tried to eat there two days running before we finally worked it out.2. The restaurant does not serve alcohol so if you would like an alcoholic drink with your meal you can bring your own. A small shop across the street sells wine, beer and spirits if needed but does not have a wide selection and is only open until about 5pm.3. The restaurant is open air and so there are lots of mosquitoes. The lovely owner lights lots of mosquito coils/ candles and has mosquito repellent if you need it - but forewarned is forearmed.4. This is a cash only restaurant so please make sure you bring enough local currency as cards are not accepted.Overall I thought this restaurant was one of the highlights of our visit to Tobago. Not only does it have a beautiful view of the Caribbean Sea but it has some of the best (if not the best) lobster that i’ve tasted. Definitely worth a visit!

My family and I celebrated a special anniversary dinner at this restaurant! We had a great experience, from the complimentary specialty cheese and olive oil from Italy to the tasty dinner and yummy dessert! We tried 3 different desserts and all were excellent and home made! The owner was very personable and created a warm, inviting atmosphere! We thoroughly enjoy having dinner at this authentic Italian restaurant on our visits to Tobago!

Honeys Restaurant

Reservations and Pre-ordering is necessary if all the menu options are required. For customers who choose to walk in without reservations, then a limited number of options will be available. Honeys Restaurant is open from 5 pm to 11 pm every day except Su

Reviewed By Mark H

We found Honeys on Trip Advisor, and although it is a bit off the beaten tourist track, it is well worth finding! The owners, Cyrus and Nancy, are very friendly and welcoming, and the food is excellent - as well as being the most reasonably priced restaurant that we visited on Tobago.As well as the regular menu, they also offer a range of 'platters' which are big enough for 2 people, and having tried the Pork Platter on our first visit, we can confirm that they certainly are! We enjoyed Honeys so much that we returned for a second visit and tried the shrimp in creamy garlic sauce and the pork ribs - again, both were excellent.Nancy also makes a very fine rum punch amongst a splendid range of cocktails!Recommended..Thank you Pepper [and Mark] for your review. We were very happy to have you at Honeys. As for the pricing we try very hard to keep prices reasonable while at the same time maintain a high quality product. Hope to see you on your next visit to Tobago.

Reviewed By Mark H

We visited Makara twice during our holiday and had fantastic meals on both occasions. Highlights were the Goats cheese and beetroot salad, the crab dumplings, the blackened Mahi Mahi and the Red Snapper. The owner was very friendly, and the staff were charming, especially Naomi, who looked after us on both visits.If we return to Tobago, we will be back!

We ate at The Fish Pot twice during our stay on the island and both times the food was great. The fresh fish was cooked beautifully and accompanied by some lovely sides. The staff were lovely and overall would 100% recommend going here for dinner!

The Seahorse Inn

Fabulous beach side dining with fresh seafood, premium ingredients, an awesome wine & cocktail list, and great personal and attentive service.

Reviewed By SarahSook

I had the pleasure of having dinner at this restaurant recently with my family. The food was great, portions we're quite large, drinks were on point, and desserts were lovely. Service was attentive, quick and friendly. Ambiance was beautiful, you can hear waves crashing on the shore. A few tips: definitely make reservations, the restaurant fills up around 7pm; if you have children, the tables have lit candles so be careful, also the ladies room does not have a baby changing area, high chairs for kids are available upon request. Be aware of the climate of Tobago, being tropical and humid: the restaurant has a lovely outdoor dining space and open verandah but with the weather, it may be humid. Overall, a fantastic experience. Would visit again.

Edge of the Reef

Reviewed By Robjoe123

We had 2 surf and turfs , garlic shrimp and calamari to start and 2 gin and tonics $858Quite expensive for location but food quality was good. Not as great as some of the reviews though given the price. The steak was tender not chewy. The decor was very dated but the main chef took your order and made the food to your liking.Would return there despite the loud blaring music from the locals competing with each other...

Went for lunch and had a great meal. Set menu that changes cooked by owner and his lovely wife Allison brings in the meals and chats up the customers. We are going back for dinner. Reservation only so please phone beforehand. One of the best meals in the area.
