Café Martinique

New Providence


A homage to the long-gone original featured in the 1965 Bond flick Thunderball, this upscale French-fusion restaurant in Atlantis bears the imprimatur of French-American celebrity chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten. Alongside Mediterranean classics such as seafood Provençal you'll find classy renditions of more Bahamian seafood fare, such as sea bass cartoccio.
