Acquapazza Wine Bar & Ristorante ReviewWithin marina-fronting premises, this is one of Harbour Island's newest and most talked-about restaurants. It's the culinary statement of two expatriate Italians, Hagmo (from Bolzano) and Manfredi (from Módena), who wax eloquent about the menu items of the day. (Both are refugees from the now-defunct kitchen of the Windermere Island Club on nearby Eleuthera.) Italian wines by the glass are appropriate foils for lunch platters that include seared tuna with onions and capers, grilled grouper with homemade tartar sauce and fries, burgers, and Mediterranean-style lobster salad. Dinner main courses are far more elaborate, including linguine with lobster and fresh tomatoes, roasted lamb chops with a balsamic reduction, beef tenderloin with sautéed wild mushrooms, and a signature version of poached grouper with herbs and tomato broth. Lighter appetites appreciate the antipasti, served only from 5 till 10pm. Examples include fried calamari, sea scallops poached in lentils with truffle broth, and kebabs of spicy "pil-pil" shrimp.

Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
