Chateau Bordeaux is like a five star tree house with breathtaking views of Coral Bay and Tortola B.V.I. in the distance.
The atmosphere is uber romantic with a dark wooden interior, filled with wrought-iron chandeliers, lace table cloths, and lit candles. Tall crystal wineglasses with solid white china plates sit at each setting, and fabric swags hang from the ceiling. It is fine dining caribbean-island style, and as it should be, the view is the true feast for the eyes. Picture windows surround the dining room looking out towards the east. It's best to dine before sunset to catch the spectacular view. The wine list is impressive, and the food has a French/Caribbean flare with fresh and creative dishes. Try the Caribbean Lobster Crepe, Chilean Sea Bass, or West Indian seafood chowder. Filet Mignon and rack of Lamb are also some of the offerings, as well as an assortment of decadent homemade desserts. (close)
