It’s certainly a heated competition, but it’s hard to find better food anywhere in the Caribbean than in Trinidad and Tobago. And Trinidad’s beachy sister island of Trinidad, Tobago has a diverse culinary culture of its own, with local West Indian flavours and its own unique spin on classic dishes. Here are five great places to eat if you’re visiting Tobago. What’s your favourite restaurant in Tobago? Tell us in the comments section.

Seahorse Inn

Creole crab cakes, Jerk Chicken Satay … there’s a reason this is one of the top culinary addresses in Tobago.

Kariwak Village Restaurant

This restaurant in the Crown Point area has the feel of a private retreat — despite not being on the beach. It’s part of the Kariwak Holistic Haven, a hotel and wellness property. And the food is delicious.

Jemma’s Tree House

Set in the town of Speyside on the northern portion of Tobago, Jemma’s offers fresh, authentic local food, among the treetops.

Pembois — Magdalena Grand Beach Resort

In a short amount of time, Pembois at the Magdalena Grand has become Tobago’s place to be for Sunday brunch.

Cafe Havana

Cafe Havana is a hotel restaurant (at the Bacolet Beach Club), but it doesn’t feel that way — with a nice fusion of Asian and local cuisines in an airy hillside setting — and it’s equally popular with locals.
