I don’t normally give five stars, but Graces Cottage has earned it. The atmosphere is perfect for date night as the place exudes romance. With a gentle breeze passing through the trees and the soft music wafting through the air, the only thing left to focus on is your date. Our waitress, the fabulous Sandy, treated us like a king and queen, even bringing a step stool for my wife to put her purse on so it wasn’t on the floor or taking up room on the table. She answered all our questions with enthusiasm and even took the time to place my wife’s napkin on her lap for her. She always poured my wine to fill my glass before I needed to and was attentive to all our needs. The food was incredible and my beef so tender, I was able to cut it with a butter knife. I had the Beef Bourguignon, Short Rib, Smoked Bacon, Shallots, Mushrooms, Red Wine Jus and my wife had the Lobster Thermidore - Lobster, Gruyere Cheese, Mustard, Cognac. Both of these meals were cooked to perfection. No mosquitoes and the full moon added a bit of elegance to our nighttime walk back to our room. Out of all the places we’ve had dinner on the island, this is the only one I give five stars to. Yes, very expensive, but well worth it and you need reservations. We saw people turned away at the door and while it’s a hidden gem, its existence is well known.
