2 Best Restaurants in Tonga Islands

Outside of town, but well worth the taxi ride, you'll find authentic Italian cuisine with a French touch and an emphasis on fresh, expertly made seafood dishes. The wine list is the best in town.

In one of the best restaurants on the island—attached to a charming eight-room inn—the Italian owners produce a tasty version of their native cuisine, along with steaks and plenty of fresh seafood, like blackened mahi mahi, grilled swordfish, and fat tuna steaks. By all accounts, the profiteroles should not be missed. The restaurant is handily open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner and the dining room is air conditioned, but you can also sit on a charming garden veranda for the harbor breezes or to catch the sunset views over the water.
