This restaurant did not live up to the hype. The mansion is beautiful; however, every single item served - both food and cocktails - were overdone, over-seasoned, overcooked, etc. it was just all either too sweet or too strong or too salty; just too heavy handed. Service was slow. Also the ambience was ruined by a raucous group of drunk Americans cursing and shouting. Nothing was said to them ever. We asked to be moved to a different room. One by one, every table in that room asked to be moved as well. About 8 tables total! Yep, that makes more sense than moving the a**h*les to a private room.

Our tour guide, Princess, was good -- we learned a lot about the history of the Bahamas and we loved the local chocolates. But this was during virus times, and we didn't feel safe given that our guide hadn't been vaccinated. She said she was thinking about it. But this should be a requirement for tour guides.
