Sapodilla Estate in Nassau, The Bahamas, is a culinary paradise with a vibrant heritage. Founder & CEO Elaine Pinder, along with Architect/Designer, Ethelyn Lundy, transformed her home into a Fine Dining Restaurant and opened its doors in December of 2013. This unassuming hidden oasis just off West Bay Street offers a sweet escape for visitors and locals alike. Sapodilla's sophisticated Island-style architecture and Colonial influence is set amidst lush gardens, tropical wetlands and beautiful Bahamian artwork harmoniously blending tropical charm with modern elegance. Together, Sapodilla & Executive Chef Noel St. Claude, offer an elevated selection of contemporary Bahamian cuisine. We welcome you to immerse yourself in an evening of exceptional cuisine, a carefully curated selection of premium wines, and impeccable service, all set against the backdrop of our lush gardens and stunning landscape.

    We booked Sapodilla before our arrival in Nassau because of it’s reviews. The estate is beautiful, ambiance is excellent. Our server was friendly and attentive. The piano player in the bar added even more to the ambiance. The food was good, but just good. The biggest drawback we had was the inability to contact Sapodilla on the phone to arrange the promised hotel free shuttle pickup. We paid for a cab to get there and took the free shuttle back to the hotel. Also, the restaurant’s website has not been updated and says they had a warehouse fire, but they are open. We thought that might be why we couldn’t get through. The fire was a year ago.

    Cute ambiance, however food took forever and we were the only ones in the restaurant. Potatoes were undercooked. Fish was okay.

    We loved this so much. The grounds were beautiful. Walked in and a woman was playing wonderful piano. Sat down and enjoyed the atmosphere - pictures on the wall, fans on the ceiling. Then received the menu -delicious cocktails and food! And I loved our server. Very traditional and elegant. Bananas flambe at the end, made tableside! I felt like we got the best of the Bahamas experience.

    My husband's birthday dinner at Sapodilla last Friday was fantastic. It was exactly the fine dining, traditional Bahamian experience we were looking for. The ambiance was lovely, with the live piano creating a wonderful atmosphere. We thoroughly enjoyed the delicious food and the excellent cocktails made by Kendall. Our waiter, Zhivago, was very welcoming and attentive, and we appreciated the owner stopping by to check-in our experience and chat a bit. Overall, it was a top-notch experience, and we'll definitely return on our next trip back to Nassau.

    Wonderful experience all around. Setting was beautiful. Tables were spread out to allow private dinner conversations. Wait service was impeccable. Food was delicious. Prices were very reasonable compared to what we would pay in the states. We couldn’t have asked for a more lovely dinner.
