We found Exagon on a recommendation from a local diver who promised us a great place to eat dinner. He was right! The food was great in a casual atmosphere near the water. Two-for-one drink specials were a bonus and the drinks were great. We loved the food and the staff was friendly and helpful. We would return on our next trip to Nassau!

Reviewed By TravelDon10

This doesn’t make the category of a restaurant. It is a shack on the beach. The 2 food items on the menu is cooked in very unacceptable conditions. Overall, DO NOT waste time coming here if you want a restaurant. This listing should be removed as it does not meet the criteria for a restaurant.

The Poop Deck

Reviewed By Melissa B

I felt this place was way overpriced. I got the mahi-mahi with Bahamian mac and cheese, peas and rice and plantains. I felt like the plantains didn't have any seasoning on them, and maybe that's how they make them down there but I've had them other places and they were more crispy and had seasoning. I wasn't impressed. I also wasn't impressed with the Bahamian mac and cheese. My cousin loved the rum cake and the cheesecake, I wasn't a fan. The Mahi-Mahi was delicious, but expect to spend at least $100 here.

Had the shrimp with rice and peas, but at the time we went, the only other sides were plantain and corn, and the rice and peas was the last for the dinner meal. Decent meal, nothing to rave about. The have a big menu and the prices are really reasonable compared to the Atlantis.

We ordered fried calamari, a burger, firecracker shrimp Mac and cheese, conch quesadilla, and salmon. The food was very good but having to sit outside was uncomfortable especially since service was very slow. Our waiter must have been very inexperienced because I kept seeing him start walking over with our drinks, food, etc, only to turn back and delay further. The portions are huge, and I thought the Mac and quesadilla were especially tasty. We only ate half and brought the rest back for lunch the next day. If I had to do it over again, I may take out. Thank you for your review sfgirl3, We are happy you enjoyed your dinner choices: We are very proud of our Chef and his new menu. I apologize for the slow service during the hot days of the Bahamas, we do try to train our new staff as quickly as possible and continue to strive for great customer service. We do appreciate your comments about Viola's and hope you will be back.

Smugglers

Smugglers is located caddy corner to the British Colonial Hilton Hotel. It is hard to find anything in this town that meets American standards and cost. One evening we had their pizza and conch fritters, both were tasty. The next morning we went for breakfast, had the corned beef and grits with couple of eggs, and kids had pancakes. Both vey good, and reasonably priced, compared to many other places that are just the opposite.
