We spent our 4th anniversary here! Ambiance is incomparable. We made reservations and sat literally on the beach under a mangrove tree that was surrounded by other tables but still felt incredibly intimate. Service was attentive but allowed us time to really enjoy dinner and the night itself. We started with the snapper collar which was crispy on the outside flaky on the inside, only gripe is that I was cautious of eating bone so I'm sure I left good meat behind. The ceviche was fresh and tangy but would've been nice with a chip or something crispy. For an entree we shared the butterflied snapper which was served tableside. It was a massive portion and was absolutely delicious. Highly, highly recommend. We had a couple of drinks at the bar prior to dinner as well and received similar friendly service, great drinks (tad expensive).
My husband and I dropped into Tillies on a whim, and although we did not have a reservation the host was able to seat us immediately. It was raining, so we were not able to sit on the beautiful patio but the inside was just a cute! We had a fabulous time with Giuseppe who gave us excellent recommendations and has us giggling right off the bat. The bread rolls came out hot, fluffy and fresh with a delightful coconut garnish. We had to stop ourselves to save room for the rest of the meal. We also ordered the Ceviche, which was very fresh and nice light starter. The we ordered the goat curry and fish milanese. Both dishes were excellent and not too heavy, which we appreciated. The fish milenses came with cucumber, avocado, yuzu koshō with delectible citrus flavors. Giuseppe also had excellent wine recommendations, and I ended up an incredible glass of Italian red that I savored throughout the meal. We finished our dinner off with the vanilla mango gelato with pineapple. It was not overly sweet, light and perfectly prepared. The perfect end to a lovely meal!
Tallies is AMAZING! Great ambiance, great waiters, great everything! We sat outside which was right on the beach. You could heat the waves crashing in. This may be the fanciest and tastiest beach date I have ever had. The salad and steak were amazing! This place is sooo good we are trying to go back again today! A must visit in Grand Cayman. Make sure you get a reservation .
Best ambiance on the island! When in cayman, I visit tillie often and always love it. The service has always been very polite but don't expect a meal at tillies to be quick. However the experience is one to enjoy and not rush! For breakfast the burrito is a must try! The avocado toast, scrambled eggs and croissant are also some of my favorites. The French toast is also super delicious for a sweet treat breakfast. For lunch/dinner my go to is the grill bowl with chicken. I've tried the fish sandwich which was pretty great. However the burger is one of the best burgers I've ever had! It's another must try item! The fries are equally delicious too! Both ceviches on the menu are incredible and fresh. When i come for dinner i usually i get the market fish. Which is usually a whole fish and enough for two people to share. It comes a a yummy sauce on the side with just the right amount of spice. I've also had the scallops Thermidor which had a beautiful presentation and is yummy but more of a rich dish.
If I could give Tille's 10 Stars I would. From start to finish, the entire experience is magical. * the setting - perfect. Toes in the sand and watch the sunset. - they do have indoor patio dining if you're allergic to fluffy, white & soft, as powder sand * the staff - the entire staff was so welcoming and friendly, attentive but not obtrusive. * the food- from the clump crab Louie salad to the duck la'orange to the baked Alaska was fantastic. The best dining experience in the 10 days we had in our stay in the Cayman Islands!
I do not usually leave bad reviews but this one I must so no one else needs to make this mistake. We have dined here the last 4 years while visiting Cayman. This is the last time. The Louie salad and fried okra was good but nothing else. Two couples ordered the grilled snapper that was incredibly dry and no seasoning. They served it with a cold turmeric sauce which was cold and not good at all. This was $85 CI with no sides. The octopus was like chewing rubber. Little to no service at all. We had to catch someone passing by to refill our wine that was across the room. Some of the others wanted to order another cocktail but we did not see the server until we were done with the dinner. The last mistake was ordering the baked Alaska dessert. It was completely burnt on the outside and had sorbet in the middle.
We heard good things about this place and decided to try it. We decided to walk, it wasn't too far from our hotel. The place was very busy. We made reservations ahead of time. I would highly recommend to make reservations. We ordered a salad and a burger. They were both really good. The fries were crispy. The salad was fresh. They provided excellent service. We had a great time.
This is the only restaurant that we visited twice. Wish we had not. The first time the food, service and setting were excellent. I had a white Negroni that was incredible. I had the duck curry Roti and it was truly delicious. The last night we went was the day after Hurricane Beryl left and I think everyone was just tired, the service was the opposite, drinks were average and the wait time was much longer. I have to say we had the fried lobster as an appetizer and it was terrific. I don't think I will be going back to the island anytime soon but if you are trying to decide between the duck curry and the octopus get the curry you will be happy that you did.
Heard a lot of good things about this restaurant. I made reservations for dinner on a Sunday. It was a short walk down from my hotel. It is set in the back along the beach. The place is so pretty and very big. We were lead to our table and it was in the middle of the place. I liked the setup. It was very pretty looking. I asked our waiter what he recommended. One of the things was their burger. I ordered that. It came by itself so I got the fries too. The burger was so flavorful and cooked perfectly. I really liked the taste. The fries were thin and cooked crispy which i enjoyed. I also got the oysters on the half shell and they were fresh. The small ones which I love. My wife got the Caesar salad with shrimp. It was also good. We enjoyed our visit to this place and I would recommend it and come here again. The servers were always checking on us which was nice. I forgot to mention the bread. Wow the rolls were really fresh and soft. Loved them. We didn't order any desserts but the chef gave us some little treat . Just something sweet. So thoughtful.
Worth the wait!! The vibes are fire, service is excellent, and the food is very good. Located right on the beach, you can have dinner outdoors under the palm trees or even on the beach. The lighting and music at this place give me tropical vibes. The octopus was exceptional! The local snapper was very good. I would recommend this spot for a good night out.
Service was amazing and food was even better! I had Mahi the catch of the day and it was amazing! Then u got the daily special of mango cheesecake and omg you have to try it is they have it!! Place is SO COOL. You get to feed the tarpon and it is such a fun and cool experience for kids and adults alike!! GOOOOO

Fabulous atmosphere. The outside patio area and the beach area are absolutely beautiful. Because I had eaten breakfast outside many times I chose to eat inside. 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. read more
Hands down the best meal we were able to enjoy on our most recent visit to Grand Cayman. 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. read more

Delicious food, great service, and beautiful views of seven miles beach! Run, don't walk to this beachfront restaurant - Tillies! This was the first restaurant stop on our vacation, and we've raved about it every single day since. They gave us time to enjoy the beach before we placed our orders. They were bringing out drinks to customers in the water. We ordered the conch fritters, kale salad, the shrimp piri piri bowl, and the red snapper bowl. The curry chickpeas were the perfect addition to the bowls. Super flavorful. The servers are dressed so fancy, in bowties and white tuxedos. Very friendly, and checked in on us regularly. We loved it so much we didn't want to leave. We stayed after sunset and took a night stroll on the beach. 10/10 highly recommend! We will be back! read more

This is the platonic ideal of a fancy beach restaurant. Whether you're looking for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or just drinks, Tillie's will offer up gorgeous, high-quality food and drink, served by the nicest of people, in the perfect setting. And you will pay for it. (But really, nothing on this island is cheap, so it's well worth the mark-up over many more affordable spots.) We enjoyed coconut shrimp and an excellent ceviche for lunch, as well as a surprisingly healthy "grill bowl," with caribbean coconut rice, curried chickpea scotch bonnet crema, green coconut chutney, green papaya, kale, and herbs all topped with a nice piece of red snapper. (More scotch bonnet crema next time, please.) When we could escape from our children, we downed Jalisco Margaritas (more scotch bonnet heat), Tillie's Punch, Hemingway Daiquiris, and piña coladas (for the wife). For dinner, we shared a very nice chicken liver mousse, perfect fries, the seafood pasta special, grilled octopus, and another red snapper, stuffed tableside with greens and crab, and served with a beurre blanc that would make soggy cardboard taste good. We were also surprised by how child-friendly they were. My man Abdul, an amazing server, was playing with our kids in-between snapper-stuffing, and generally providing anything we could possibly need (which was mostly more alcohol). They also start you off at dinner with some incredible fresh bread, which heads off any kid hunger, and the beach at sunset is the best possible playground you could have. They were even accommodating of our giant rental stroller, which was no easy feat. I'll dream about coming back to Tillie's, but ideally without my children, because they don't deserve it. Then again, neither do I. read more
Service is inconsistent. Expect to wait for your table even when having a reservation. I had a 8:45 reservation and was sat at 9:30 - the server then took another half hour to greet us at the table. We didn't end up getting our food until 10:45. While the ambiance is great and the food is good the service ruins the experience. read more

Setting, service, and obviously food are what define an unforgettable dining experience. Tillie's delivers on all three: with tables right on the beach and lights stung between the palm trees, the setting is beautiful; I can't say enough about the impeccable service and Giuseppe's attention to detail- he is simply one of the best; having had the privilege of eating at some of the best restaurants around, can say without hesitation the food is incredible. We did not find the portions to be small, and as for pricing, well, it's the Caymans - we paid about half of the cost of our meal a few nights earlier for five tacos, chips/guac and two drinks. Tillie's, FTW. If you are in the Caymans, this is a must. We will most certainly be back. read more
Overall 3.5 stars and would've rounded up if not for the mosquitoes, which are a bane of my existence. The food was 3.25 stars, and rounding up for the ambiance (5 stars,) and service (4.5 stars), and down again for food value (3 stars) and since getting bitten by mosquitoes on my face during dinner isn't quite the most enjoyable experience (2 stars). The restaurant is gorgeous. It's nestled inside the Palm Heights Hotel, beachside with lush foliage, beach umbrellas, outdoor lighting strung tastefully to create an almost* magical atmosphere as the sunset fades into oranges, pinks, and purples beneath the evening horizon. Several tables are set up right on the sandy beach, while the majority of approximately thirty-odd total tables spill out from the cavernous main interior dining room replete with 10-ft tall tree rising toward the white-washed ceiling beams. The dinner service clientele settle in at their tables, attended to by well-dressed (jackets and bow ties) and well-mannered (courteous and knowledgeable) staff. *Almost magical bc the itching from mosquito bites will quickly bring you back to reality. They had a pretty good set up with many electric fans (mosquitoes can't fly into wind), and it's probably fine during the mid-day heat, but after the sun set and temps dropped, the mozzie brigade was out in full force. Especially to people like me who are prone to getting bitten, even the fans blowing couldn't prevent them from biting the side of my face not directly in line of the wind. Back to the meal. The food was not bad, though my overall impression was that we were paying more so for the ambiance. - House buns were ok, fluffy and chewy and the coconut sambal that came with it was fragrant and has a little kick. - The same was served with the goat curry ($27 KYD) served thali style with roti (not as flaky as advertised or as I expected, kinda dense), yogurt sauce, red onions, tamarind. We found a few little pieces of bone in the curry so you had to be careful when eating it. - The shrimp sambusa ($16 KYD) was pretty good, the pastry shell tasted like deep fried, flaky phyllo stuffed with shrimp coconut curry. - The half dozen East Coast oysters were a bit underwhelming for $25 KYD ($31.25 USD) partially bc they were from Long Island and coming from NYC you can find them probably fresher and for less at home, though I'm sure it was expensive to import them from so far away. - The conch fritters ($16 KYD) were enjoyable and tasted a bit more fresh/green with cucumber and lemongrass than some of the other versions we'd tried at different restaurants. - The simple greens salad ($12 KYD) and pomme purée (mashed potatoes, $8 KYD) were good but pretty generic. - The rib-eye for two ($75 KYD) requested medium rare came out quite blue and rare in the middle so much that we had to send it back to be cooked more, though they were quite gracious and it came back perfect the second time. - We ordered a few drinks which were ok--my friend loved the white wine she ordered and another friend enjoyed the Tillie's Punch. Meanwhile my virgin Coconut Limon ($10 KYD) was strangely unbalanced sweet, salty, watery and sour. - Dessert was a baked Alaska ($15 KYD) which was a impressive show of flambéing though I wished the flavor and textures impressed me more. The couple cappuccinos we ordered were decent and one came with a beautiful seahorse foam art. This is a fancy dining experience in a casual setting and I'd recommend checking it out for the vibe, though food and drink-wise I wouldn't go with super high expectations. If I were to go again I'd order different menu items to see if maybe I missed their highlights the first time around. read more

Tillies is truly beautiful. Sitting beachside with views of the ocean with a nice breeze is an unmatched feeling. You can even sit directly on the beach with your toes in the sand. The atmosphere is immaculate. The food was fresh and delicious. The guac hit the spot and my grilled snapper was cooked perfectly. It was flavorful and the grilled pineapple was a nice touch. My friend and I ordered a pina colada (minus the rum lol) and it was silky smooth and beyond refreshing. The reason I have to take off a star is because of the service. I understand they don't want to rush you but it took almost an hour to even get our drinks. That's a little extreme especially when your starving. Worth a visit if you're in grand cayman! read more

This place is amazing, the ambient the food the attention, wow. I've stopped here but at the bar, we will be back for sure ! read more
Tillies is tucked away between Paradise Pizza and the Coconut Club. Maybe? Or is it the 7 Mile Beach Bar? Trust me, it's hidden. You have to go to the Palm Heights resort and wander down an exterior hallway on the north side of the building. At the end, to your left, is a small bar and Yashinoki; a small joint specializing in small, Japanese plates and sushi. Turn right and head through the stand of small palms and you'll find Tillies. Somewhat posh details and cozy dining nooks makes this ideal for a romantic dinner. Casablanca-vibe with white-jacketed waiters. Some on-the-sand and beach front options are available as well. Pro Tip: book for seating with an unobstructed view and try to catch the sunset. Superlative! Wife ordered a ceviche and sashimi apps for dinner. I had the NY strip which was cooked correctly though it came pre-sliced which I found odd. Steak was good but didn't outclass steaks I've had elsewhere. The same for the sashimi dishes and cocktails. Basically, it was on par with most fine dining restaurants. What you're really paying for is the ambiance and the view which is well worth it. Great vibe. Great romantic spot. read more

You shouldn't miss it in Grand Cayman! It was one of the best meals I had ever have. The oyster mushrooms were amazing! Our server, Giuseppe who told us the best way to have the mushrooms. He knows all the dishes and ingredients. Very professional and impressive! The veggie curry was sooo delicious too. Nice wine and desserts as well. We sat at the side of beach and had dinner with the sunset. Very unforgettable experience. Don't forget to get some buds spray. Cos you will be the meal of mosquitos at the same time lol. It was pricey of course. Nothing is cheap on the island. But it worth every penny you spend there. read more

We had reservations at 6 o'clock, but got there early so that we could watch the sunset from the edge of the beach.. We were seated at a beautiful table, and our waiter was a little Italian man named Giuseppe, who was very delightful and entertaining.. he brought us over some homemade rolls with fresh butter that was absolutely delicious. The beach ambience was fabulous. I would highly recommend Tillies for anyone visiting Seven Mile Beach in the Grand Caymans.. you will not be disappointed !!! read more
