Bartoloméo

Frommer's Review

Yes, it's pricey, and yes, it's located inside one of the island's most exclusive hotels, Guanahani. But Bartoloméo manages to be unthreatening, informally sophisticated, and gracefully upscale. It's a lovely setting, on a wooden deck that's partially covered by a white-slat-wood ceiling and the rest under cream-colored umbrellas beneath the blue-black night sky. Tables are spaced liberally apart, and slatted salmon-rose walls are romantically lit. The food is impeccable: You might start with a foie gras terrine with figs, black currants, and port coulis, or the St. Barts lobster and preserved duck spring rolls. Pan-fried sea bass is dressed with rosemary, tomato, and black olives. For meat, you can order lamb, veal, or a Black Angus beef filet.
