GOOD TO KNOW
Nassau’s best tables fill early in high season. If you have a date in mind, call the restaurant well ahead — a week or more for the popular rooms.
- Dress codes vary by venue. Worth asking when you call — a few of the finer rooms expect jackets.
- Mention dietary requirements and allergies when you book so the kitchen can plan.
- Taxis are easy to find in Nassau, and most restaurants on the list are a short ride from The W
