If you plan your week around meals worth remembering, you’re going to want to block off Tuesday nights. Saltwater Grill’s Prime Rib Night is a weekly ritual for steak lovers and foodies in Grand Cayman. This isn’t just dinner. It’s a flavour-packed event that feels a little like magic as soon as the prime rib arrives at your table.
Saltwater Grill prides itself on high standards. Located just steps from Seven Mile Beach, this not so hidden gem combines coastal elegance with a curated menu that delivers both comfort and culinary craft. The space is stylish without trying too hard, soft lighting, a breezy dining room patio, and an ambience that strikes the perfect balance between laid-back island vibes and refined steakhouse polish.
Prime Rib at its best
Prime Rib Night starts from 6 pm and always draws a crowd. The star of the show? A generous slice of Certified Angus Prime Rib, roasted slowly and carved in the kitchen, then plated with precision and served hot to your table. No gimmicks, just perfectly cooked prime rib that speaks for itself.
Saltwater’s Prime Rib Night is a choose-your-own-adventure for steak lovers:
- Pick your portion: 10oz or 14oz cuts
- Pick your potatoes: roasted garlic mash, loaded baked potato with sour cream, bacon and chives, or wedge-cut truffle fries
- Pick your veggies: grilled asparagus, maple-glazed carrots, tarragon mushrooms with caramelised onions, or a vegetable medley of broccoli, carrots and zucchini
- Pick your sauce: horseradish cream, beef au jus, chimichurri, Carolina BBQ or béarnaise
Want to turn it into a surf & turf? Add a Caribbean lobster tail or grilled shrimp and make it even more memorable. Located just minutes from resorts like the Kimpton Seafire and the Ritz Carlton, this is one of the best steak dinners in Grand Cayman, matched with a setting that’s polished yet unpretentious. Pair your plate with the featured wine of the evening, Decero Malbec from Remolinos Vineyard in Argentina, or sip your way through the cocktail list.
Unlike other specials on island, Saltwater’s prime rib is more than a good deal. It’s a high-quality dining experience at one of the best restaurants in the Cayman Islands, all backed by warm hospitality and a space that makes any Tuesday feel like a special occasion.
