Tides Restaurant — Restaurant in East End

This is the resort restaurant at the Wyndham Reef Resort. We ate there a couple of times and would go back. My wife is gluten free due to celiac and the restaurant was very accommodating with many dishes she could have. The service was very good and the food was excellent. It is a bit pricey depending on what you order but given there are not many restaurants on the East end of Grand Cayman it is not bad. The views are great and the atmosphere is of fine dining.

Lamb was excellent, Alfredo was excellent but the best of the three was the Seafood Linguine with lobster, shrimp, scallops and mussels in a spicy sauce. The carrot soup was good but overshadowed by the other dishes. We would probably have eaten more than a third if it had come as requested. Five stars for the food minus one...

Highly recommend the Tikka masala with...
