Baci Ristorante.

Perched along the quiet waters of Turtle Cove Marina, Baci Ristorante blends traditional Italian flavors with the daily haul of the Turks and Caicos. While the interior features Spanish tiles and a courtyard mermaid fountain, the most coveted seats are on the al fresco deck, where bougainvillea and underlit palms frame views of the docked yachts. The menu focuses on handmade pastas and brick-oven pizzas, though the standout dishes often involve local snapper, wahoo, or mahi-mahi brought in by the marina’s sport-fishing fleet. Owner John Draper is a fixture in the dining room, lending a personal touch to a space that feels more like a local secret than a tourist hub. It’s a reliable spot for a long, breezy lunch or a romantic dinner fueled by fresh seafood and a sweeping bar.
