Blue by Eric Ripert Grand Cayman

Blue by Eric Ripert sits inside The Ritz-Carlton on West Bay Road. It holds five stars from the Forbes Travel Guide and is ranked no. 47 on La Liste.

The restaurant serves seafood with a French, creative approach that feels more focused than the typical resort dining found elsewhere on the island. While its neighbours lean into casual, open-air beach service, the room here runs smart and elegant. The wine program—which holds a Wine Spectator Excellence Award—is the reason to choose this over the more relaxed lounges along Seven Mile Beach. You come here for a tighter, more precise experience that prioritizes the glass and the plate over the scenery.
