Barracuda Grill

Popular with island power brokers who cram into the banquettes at lunch and belly up to the bar during happy hour, this Hamilton restaurant is also one of the best spots in town for a romantic dinner. After all, it was long a favorite of Bermuda residents Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones, who come for its seafood, steaks, and understated elegance. For an intimate table of two out of sight of other diners, reserve the “snug corner.” Expect inventive dishes, like pan-fried snapper with black quinoa, tomato shrimp sofrito, and poblano pesto, plus a handful of delectable desserts (try the chocolate fondue for two).
