Menu highlights include the crunchy Thai salad, salmon and avocado ceviche, Japanese chicken curry and encrusted sea bass with curry mango sauce. The Black Angus, a steakhouse featuring hip, contemporary jazz and modern decor, offers guests the finest quality prime cuts and the freshest ingredients.Menu highlights include Bahamian lobster tail, grilled sea bass with orange sauce, fire glazed BBQ pork ribs, and beef empanadas with chimichurri sauce. Estavida is an upbeat tapas lounge located in the hotel lobby specializing in innovative tapas and a wide selection of cocktails. Guests enjoy light bites during the day or sip on Estavida’s signature apricot sangriaor gin “peel” tonic while reveling in the lounge’s lively, energetic atmosphere into the late evening hours. The sophisticated new restaurants — three of which are located on the fourth floor of the hotel with sweeping panoramic views of the turquoise Bahamian waters — mark the completion of phase one of the resort’s $19 million renovation. The restaurants were renovated over approximately eight months. They will serve as one of several signature features in what will be the only all-inclusive resort in Nassau’s $3.5 billion luxury resort destination, Baha Mar, once the remaining renovations are completed in early 2016. “Meliá Nassau Beach is pleased to welcome guests to four signature restaurants, each with a distinctive style, ambiance and menu that we believe represent culinary delights from the around the world and create a unique guest experience in The Bahamas,” said Andrew Tilley, general manager at Meliá Nassau Beach Resort. “Our guests are often very familiar with the superb guest experience offered at Meliá Hotels International and we are confident that the experience at Meliá Nassau Beach will exceed their expectations.” Meliá Nassau Beach boasts three existing popular dining options, including Aqua, O’Grille and The Market Place, which is currently undergoing renovations. Aqua provides patrons with an entertaining dinner menu of exquisite Italian cuisine, along with an extensive wine list.

O’Grille, which will open shortly, features a casual ambiance seamlessly mingling ocean and beach with dining and entertainment.
