It’s the ideal setting for a romantic dinner: a casually elegant structure evocative of a Caribbean-style home, complete with wooden shutters, hammocks and tropical foliage, situated right on a lovely white sand beach and overlooking Grenada’s breathtaking southwest coast.

The Beach House Restaurant offers upscale menu items with a Caribbean twist, like leafy callaloo with ochra and coconut milk, or seared local sushi-grade tuna with house teriyaki ginger, garlic and mustard sauce.

The service is refreshingly attentive and accommodating, and the view, well, it can’t be beat. Take it in from the restaurant’s outdoor dining deck, where soft lighting and lush landscaping set the mood for an unforgettably romantic evening.

Stay at any major hotel in the south, like LaSource, and The Beach House will even send a complimentary taxi for you.

Romance, charm and elegance await at Sheer Rocks Restaurant, aptly named as it’s perched atop a bluff overlooking the Caribbean Sea. Advance recommendations are strongly recommended if you hope to grab one of the six private open-air pavilions, which are connected by wooden walkways.

This restaurant is worth the effort: cocktails are heavenly, and the food — a mishmash of authentic local and international cuisine — is consistently delicious. Tapas are served for lunch, and at dinner, simple yet innovative dishes like foie gras, pork belly, and scallops are offered. The menu constantly changes based on what’s available fresh and locally, ensuring you’ll never have the same experience twice.

The ambiance, setting and views are the clincher at this restaurant, where the ocean lapping at the rocks below evokes a feeling of tranquility and romance. Sheer Rocks is on-site at the Cocobay Resort, so book a stay at this hotel and you can experience romantic meal after romantic meal here.
