We are looking for some new spots to try on our next trip. We've been to Barefoot, Flying Fishbone, Madam Jeannette's, Carte Blanche, Papamiento, Gianni's, Cuba's Cookin', El Gaucho and a few others whose names are escaping me right now. On the list for next trip are Old Canucu, Zeerovers, Maroc, Barefoot...what are we missing that is a must go to? Open to local places, moderately priced place and will consider expensive options if it is a must try experience like Carte Blanche. We really like good views and outdoor dining wherever possible. Thanks!

Quinta Del Carmen and Anna Maria's. Went to both of them in November and they were excellent.

We love West Deck near the Renaissance. Right on the beach, love the grouper fingers & martinis!

At buciti and tara there is a planned dinner where you sit at a counter with like 15 other people and you get what the chef makes. Optional wine parings. Like $300. One of the best things I have ever done.

it is per person.
I think it was 200 for the meal and 100 extra for the wine pairings (of which I had at least two bottles worth while sitting there)

Wow, $600 for a couple? Too rich for my blood. I have done a chef's dinner before on a cruise, it's been a few years ago, but thinking it was something like $75 a person including wine, and I thought that was worth it, for sure.
