Food Scene

If you want to have a real experience of pairing food with wine, this is the place to go. I was impressed. Not to be missed if you are new to the winetasting world. Lovely setting, good food, too.

Arcadia only just opened this season (2018) and I have not yet been there. It is walking distance from my place, 10 min down the hill and longer to get back up ;-) It is right on Palm Beach and so far the place looks inviting.

Fenice is a romantic Italian Cafe, which opens at 8.30. It is a casual, cozy Cafe/Restaurant in the heart of Oneroa. I have been there often for dinner and never disappointed. I love the atmosphere there.

Timbuktu is a 5 min drive from my place or a 20 min walk. They serve healthy meals to eat there or take away. One of my favourites when I am hungry and want to eat well for a reasonable price.

Poderi Crisci serves 'long lunches', a 7 course meal stretches out over a few hours, in an Italian setting, with classic Italian fare. Lovely quiet in Nature, it is a hillside Restaurant & a family owned winery.

Mudbrick has a Restaurant for fine dining, high end, and a Garden Bistro, both with excellent food. It is a romantic winery restaurant with a modern cuisine. I recommend Mudbrick for dinner, as it is facing west and you may get the luck to see a stunning sunset. It is one of favourite settings on the Island for winetasting.

Drinks & Nightlife

Waterfront Restaurant/Bar. I go there because it is right on the beach, a prime setting. They are known for their great cocktails, they also do breakfast and have plenty of outdoor seating.
