Seafood restaurants in Cayman deliver on both flavour and freshness! With the Caribbean Sea on our door step, there’s always an abundance of delicious fish and seafood being offered up at eateries around the island, and often your dish is served with an oceanfront view. Read on for some of the best seafood hot spots in Cayman.

The beloved Cracked Conch, as its name would suggest, offers a selection of conch dishes, including conch chowder, cracked conch and conch ceviche. However, they also serve a variety of other seafood dishes. Think, tuna crudo, smoked wahoo tartare, wild shrimp and crab cakes and lots more! If you're dining with someone who's not a lover of fish, they have delicious meat and vegetarian options too.

LUCA's seafood offerings represent all the classics. Local catch, such as snapper, yellowfin tuna and mahi, feature heavily, alongside fresh and flavoursome ingredients. Try their branzino al sale with roasted potatoes and a lemon chardonnay caper sauce – it's delicious!

Grand Old House have a number of entrees from the sea which feature grouper, salmon, lobster, shrimp, clams, scallops and more. Their catch of the day, served lightly blackened with Cayman-style sauce is always delicious.

Ragazzi, a local favourite, is not only famed for its pizzas and pastas. Their seafood offerings are also outstanding. With classics like pan-seared snapper and pan-fried branzino, along with seafood risotto and zuppa di pesce, you're sure to find something to take your fancy. Ragazzi also supports ocean-friendly seafood choices, as designated by the local Cayman Sea Sense Programme.

At The Wharf there's great choice when it comes to seafood dishes. The menu showcases everything from giant shrimp and diver sea scallops to Chilean seabass and Caribbean queen conch run down.

Tukka East boasts the freshest fish Cayman has to offer every Friday! Located in East End, local fisherman drop of their catch each week and the Tukka Chefs prepare it on their fish filleting station, right on the balcony. It then goes straight from the ocean to your dinner plate! Regular weekly selections include yellowfin tuna, mahi mahi, wahoo and snapper, which are all local favourites!

Calypso Grill is well-known for their delicious fish and seafood cooked simply. They have a fresh catch of the day which you can enjoy sat by the same ocean where the fish was caught.

The nautical theme at Agua lends itself to the wonderful seafood on their menu. From the range of ceviches and fishy antipasti to their tuna crudo tagliatelle and namesake Agua tuna, there's so much to choose from! Also, Agua usually hav specials on oysters, stone crab, snow crabs and more, depending on the local catch.

Morgan's is a local favourite! With a tried and tested menu, people come back time and time again for their ultimate seafood dish, or to try something new. Their fresh, local catch of the day is always sublime.
