    They don't have a huge selection of beers, but no one in East End does. Try one of the island brews; this is their dark, Ironshore Bock.

    Eagle Ray's Bar and Grill at the Compass Point Dive Resort is an experience in East End not to be missed. From the main road, look for the many signs including a sidewalk sandwich board and the yellow submersible, then park and walk to the back of the complex. Up the stairs or ramp to the raised swimming pool, the open-air restaurant and bar sits above the dive facility, overlooking the beach and dock in this diver's Mecca. Though Grand Cayman can be an expensive place to eat, Eagle Ray's offers many specials. And luckily they stagger theirs with those offered by the other two restaurants within walking distance (and owned by the same outfit): Taco Cantina and Tukka. On Tuesday nights is Caribbean Buffet night from 6pm for only $22USD. Every Monday through Friday, they offer a Happy Hour from 4-6pm whereby ALL alcohol is 25% off. From 7:30-9:00 each morning, they offer breakfast for only $12USD. These prices are pretty amazing for Cayman, and it's great that they present them in USD. Cayman dollars (KY) appear on most other menus, and it's $0.80KY=$1USD which can cause some sticker shock when paying by US credit card, until one gets used to it. Also, like many restaurants in the area, they automatically add 15% gratuity, which is the customary rate there. So what you see on your bill is what you pay. We ate there twice, for dinner and lunch (same menu), and both times the food was outstanding. Lobster is caught off the coast there and so is as or more affordable than red meat. Eagle Ray's offers on their menu twin lobster tails with roasted potatoes and grilled veggies for $28.50! They come perfectly grilled (charred and moist) with a heavenly butter seasoning as well as drawn butter. When we ate there for lunch, I had the lion fish tacos: 3 soft (flour tortillas) loaded with lightly blackened lion fish, another indigenous seafood. To that preparation was added sweet chili sauce, red cabbage, a light tomato and onion pico, and an aioli, and served with either a side salad or fries. Forty-five minutes or more from the bustle of Seven Mile Beach and 35 minutes from George Town, the atmosphere here is even more laid-back, with a charming character. As with other East End restaurants in the trio, service is comfortably friendly and spot on. They have a collection of license plates from around the world hanging up in the rafters and on the walls. To say it's casual is an understatement. The pool is on the same deck as the restaurant, so between that and divers coming back in for lunch, it's common that patrons are in swimsuits during the day. I would have gone back a third time in our week there for the buffet, the food was that good, but we were beachside late and had to pack, with that being our last night on the island. I don't know if I'll make it back to Grand Cayman, but if I do I would definitely take a jaunt to East End for Eagle Ray's!

    We went for lunch after diving. Under new ownership so we weren't sure how it would be. The food was good, bucket of beer special is great (although we miss the free coozie). Service was good.

    Lion fish tacos!

Each dish was delicious red snapper, smash burger, bikini sandwich, beet salad. Ms Pipers lemonade was incredible as were the caramelized crepes, and basque cheesecake. Would highly recommend Reservations recommended, room is open air or screened in when needed. Fans are plentiful.

    Whoa. This meal absolutely knocked it out of the park…read more I think it all started with meeting our server, Taj. I'll call myself out, I couldn't figure out where to check in for our reservation (100% a me problem, not theirs!). The kind gentleman who saved me from wandering through the wrong gate ended up being our server, and his recommendations were spot on all night. We sat in the screened dining area, which I'd definitely recommend unless you're one of the lucky people mosquitoes don't seem to notice. The menu is gorgeous and immediately gets you excited to order. There are so many creative, tempting options that choosing wasn't easy. We started with the tuna crudo, and wow...lights out. One of the best I've had anywhere. For my entrée, I followed Taj's recommendation and ordered the tiger shrimp with the chili oil on the side. Great call. I could add just the right amount of heat without overpowering the incredible red miso sauce. The sourdough served alongside deserves its own shoutout, it was fantastic. My husband had the snapper and loved every bite. The accompanying salad was fresh, bright, and tossed in an outstanding citrus vinaigrette. By the end we were completely stuffed and couldn't squeeze in dessert, which may have been the biggest disappointment of the night. Guess we'll just have to come back. Excellent food, warm hospitality, and a memorable dining experience. Ms. Piper's is absolutely worth a visit.

The inside dining room is wonderful! A true old-fashioned tropical feel. Our waiter was a little odd, but competent. I wasn't real hungry, so I just had a shrimp cocktail. My friend had the duck. The shrimp cocktail was delicious, the cocktail sauce, a bit spicy. Had too much pepper for me. When I mentioned that to the waiter, he told me it was not spicy. He said it only had pepper in it. I said well after I mixed it was a little better. I don't think a waiter should contradict what a customer says if there is a problem; he should help to alleviate the issue. Obviously, somebody didn't stir the cocktail sauce well, still the pepper was a bit heavy. What's troubling is I specifically asked the waiter if the sauce would be hot , as in spicy. My friend said the duck was very nice. As I recall, they served some complementary bread and it was good. I hope to go back to Palm Heights, where this restaurant is located, and I am sure to go back to Tillies.

    Hands down the best meal we were able to enjoy on our most recent visit to Grand Cayman…read more Unbelievable ambience and lighting with food to match. We were a larger party of 11 and got a prime spot on the beach literally 10 feet from the softly lapping sea water. Our server had the sense to get the kids orders in and served to ensure a delightful experience for the adults. Make sure to peruse the specialty drink menu that can be crafted with our without alcohol. Our food choices roamed the entire menu and everyone loved their meals so feel free to take a suggestion or go your own route. I had a perfectly cooked burger that left me stuffed and satisfied. Expect resort pricing but trust me that the memorable meal you eat will substantiate the price. Truly a one-of-a-kind meal that you'll remember for years to come.
