CEVICHE
While every restaurant — and abuelita — makes their own riff on this popular dish, the version served during lunch at Coco Beach Club® is simply out of this world. Commonly believed to have originated in Peru, ceviche is a light and refreshing dish that involves curing fish or shrimp in freshly squeezed orange or lime juice. The seafood is then mixed with thinly sliced onions, salt and a diverse array of accompaniments ranging from Peruvian corn to cooked sweet potato to corn nuts. The version at Coco Beach Club® showcases locally caught fish cured in tangy lime juice with the traditional fixings of sliced red onions and crunchy corn, plus a sprinkle of cilantro and spicy jalapeño peppers to give it a fantastic added kick. Not into spice? Just ask the team to nix the peppers; it's just as good without them.
HERB-MARINATED FILET MIGNON
Craving something a bit heartier off the cabana menu at Coco Beach Club®? Try the filet mignon. It's marinated with a simple mixture of sea salt, olive oil and tart lemon juice, allowing the wonderful flavor of the juicy steak to shine through with every bite. What's more, the sides accompanying this guest-favorite dish are as impressive as the main event. Picture fresh, grilled seasonal vegetables, garlic potatoes roasted to golden and crisp and a healthy helping of chimichurri sauce that's sure to bring plenty of heat and robust, herbal flavor..
Grilled Caribbean Grouper
This is the Caribbean, so you can expect much of the food in Coco Beach Club® to be sourced directly from the crystal-clear turquoise waters surrounding Perfect Day at CocoCay®. One local favorite: grilled Caribbean grouper. This tender, flaky fish has a naturally delicate flavor, so the culinary team at Coco Beach Club® keeps the prep work simple with sea salt, olive oil and a drizzle of fresh lemon juice. Then, they grill it to order so the inside is soft and succulent while the outside is perfectly seared. One of the best parts about this dish is that it comes with a generous side of truffle French fries, plus grilled veggies and a savory garlic-saffron aioli.
Coco Lobster Sandwich
Beach and pool days are perfect for handheld eats. Fortunately, Coco Beach Club's® signature entrée is without a doubt a fabulous sandwich. The Coco Lobster Sandwich only looks casual — every bite tastes like pure luxury. Nestled within a warm brioche bun, you'll find a helping of crispy-fried, coconut-crusted lobster. The sweetness of the coconut is balanced with a refreshing avocado relish. This dish also comes paired with Coco Beach Club's® truffle French fries and a rum-soaked pineapple salsa that you'll wish you could bottle up and bring home with you.
Bahamian Rum-Soaked Cake
I have a huge sweet tooth, which means my favorite part of any meal is usually dessert. I was blown away by the Bahamian rum-soaked cake on offer at Coco Beach Club®. Of course, everything on the cabana menu is excellent, from the tropical fruit sorbet and chocolate chip cookies to the caramel-and-chocolate brownie. But the rum cake is the undeniable star of the show here. This moist, flavorful gem is utterly addictive and will have you asking for the recipe after you've taken your first bite.
These are some standout dishes at Coco Beach Club®, but the menu features plenty more delicacies to please every palate — like a creamy and refreshing baba ghanoush spread that will transport you straight to the easternmost shores of the Mediterranean; a succulent broiled lobster that pairs perfectly with Coco Beach Club's® crisp Caesar salad; and the signature Cabana Burger, grilled to order and served with the club's secret sauce. There's even a kids' menu for families visiting with little ones, with elevated finger favorites like chicken breast strips, wings, mozzarella sticks and more.
The cocktail list is also notable. Standout specialty drinks include the fruity, vodka-forward Castaway and the sparkling Coco Cuvée — a delicious concoction of Chandon Sweet Star, Malibu rum, coconut water and pineapple juice. You'll also find classic vacation libations on the menu, including mai tais, margaritas and Bahama mamas.
