The Waterlot, Bermuda's iconic dining destination, re-opened its doors on Wednesday, December 4th. Executive Chef Hamish Lindsay brings global culinary expertise with a focus on flavors that embody the island’s spirit—think local ingredients reimagined in dishes like the Bermuda Chowder Tortellini and the signature Surf & Turf featuring vanilla-poached Bermuda lobster. Maître D' Barry Cohen, returning with a passion for warm, memorable service, has curated an atmosphere where every visit feels like a celebration, whether a milestone or an everyday escape.

The Waterlot now invites guests to revel in life's simple joys as well as grand occasions. With a welcoming ambiance, this is a place to gather, connect, and savor Bermuda’s culinary heritage. Elegance here feels relaxed, encouraging you to unwind, connect, and experience the heart of Bermuda with every bite and shared moment.

    This was our first time here and everyone was SUPER accommodating and made my sister’s 18th birthday unforgettable! The food was exquisite and service was out of this world. The sparklers coming with her cake is such a fun experience! Mahesh ensured that we had everything we needed and was very personable and funny!! We would recommend anyone to come here, especially for a special occasion!

    Hosts were rude and arrogant. Fish was old and not cooked with any flavor. Appetizer was a piece of batter coated fish cut in three pieces and put on a Melba toast (for $30). Bad experience except for the waitress who was a delight.
