 Couples Sans Souci has earned high marks for its magnificent
cuisine, prepared by award-winning chefs and served with gracious
hospitality and an ever-present smile. Dining is indeed a special
treat at Couples Sans Souci, from gourmet dishes in the white-glove
Ristorante Casanova to delicious fresh-made bistro dishes at
Palazzina Restaurant to jerk chicken and spicy Jamaican specialties
at our beachside Bella Vista. Choose from a wide selection in a
buffet style setting for breakfast and lunch; and for dinner enjoy a
delicious a la carte menu.
The only thing that will never vary at
our restaurants is the quality. It is always excellent. Always the
best. The weekly Jamaican Beach Party is a cultural medley of
colors, music and traditional delicacies, while the Friday Night
Starlight Gala is a spectacular culinary showcase.
Couples Sans Souci chefs have won more culinary awards than their
contemporaries at any other resort in the Caribbean. Our chefs are
trained in European, French, Italian, Caribbean and Continental
Cuisine. The 2005 Conde Nast Gold List ratings ranked our dining
experience as the best of any resort not only in Ocho Rios, but in
all of Jamaica.
Ristorante Casanova The words “La Dolce Vita”—living with
passion, surrounding oneself with the resplendent... aptly describe
the new menu and surroundings at this marvelous restaurant that is
well-known throughout all of Jamaica. The varied menu is a “fantasia
selection” of classic Italian cuisine taken from the hills of
Tuscany to the craggy cliffs of Sicily. Modern and traditional
Italian dishes mix with a dash of Marco Polo discoveries. The rack
of lamb, tinged with a light peppercorn crust and served with a
Rosemary jus is one small sample of how the inventive menu balances
with such classic Italian pasta entrees as a mouth-watering Luchesse
Calzoncini, stuffed with ricotta cheese and garlic spinach.
