A Michelin Star rating can bolster a restaurant’s success as well as the career of the chef at the helm of that restaurant. While Michelin has a limit on the list of areas where they award the famous Michelin star, successful restaurateurs are all over the world. The chefs of some Michelin star-rated restaurants tap into areas beyond the reach of Michelin. The Bahamas is one of those areas. Rich with local cuisine and world-class Michelin star level cuisine alike the Bahamas is a designation not to be dismissed. Here are just a few of the many locations we think worthy of being on a future list of Michelin Star Restaurants in the Bahamas!
Located at the famed One & Only Resort in Nassau, Dune is led by Michelin-star rated chef and restaurateur Jean-Georges Vongerichten. Open every day for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, the restaurant serves a famous blend of French-Asian cuisine that represents fine dining in the Bahamas. Diners can also expect a Bahamian-inspired buffet as well as a la carte dishes for breakfast. Watch the sunrise or sunset over glistening ocean views for an experience you aren’t soon to forget!
Another restaurant conceived and created by Chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten, Cafe Martinique is all about French gourmet cuisine. It’s dramatic interiors and position overlooking the resort’s harbor provide the ideal setting for a dressy casual vacation dining experience. In fact, the restaurant itself may seem familiar as its ambiance is a recreation from the famed Café Martinique from Thunderball, the classic 1965 James Bond film. This one is a must-see on our list of future Michelin Star Restaurants in the Bahamas!

Located in Downtown Nassau, Dalí’s Modernistic Tapas isn’t what you may expect on a list of this nature. However, even though it’s in a very touristy location near Señor Frog’s, the food is the draw.
