' Caribbean Restaurants Guide: Magnolia Wine Bar & Restaurant - Turks & Caicos

Magnolia Wine Bar & Restaurant - Turks & Caicos

Restaurateurs since the early 1990s, hands-on owners Gianni and Tracey Caporuscio make success seem simple. Expect well-prepared, uncomplicated choices that range from European to Asian to Caribbean. You can construct an excellent meal from the outstanding appetizers; do not miss the spring rolls and the grilled-vegetable-and-fresh-mozzarella stack; finish your meal with the mouthwatering molten chocolate cake. The atmosphere is romantic, the presentations attractive, and the service careful. It's easy to see why the Caporuscios have a loyal following. The adjoining wine bar includes a handpicked list of specialty wines, which can be ordered by the glass. The marine setting is a great place to watch the sunset.


You won't find a setting like this one anywhere else on the flat scrublands of Provo: high on a hill overlooking Turtle Cove Marina, with the sparkling lights of the island spread out before you. You could almost be dining in a cliff-side trattoria overlooking the Mediterranean Sea. Magnolia has only been around since 2002 but has already established itself as one of the best places to dine in Provo -- both for the romantic outdoor setting and the delicious food. The chef has a sure hand when it comes to marrying flavors, and the sesame-seed-and-cracked-pepper-crusted rare seared tuna is emblematic of this approach. Nothing could be earthier or more flavorful than the house-smoked pork chop served with apple preserve and sweet potato mush. Start with a Magnolia appetizer sampler (for two people), which features spring roll, tuna tartare, tempura shrimp, and mozzarella
