👍👍 I stopped by because I used to live in Georgetown 23 years ago and have drinks here for happy hour. Owen was such a cool bartender. We chatted and I told him I was hoping to get a tour of sting Ray city for my fiancé since it was his first time there. He immediately made a few phone calls- which...

    I stopped by because I used to live in Georgetown 23 years ago and have drinks here for happy hour. Owen was such a cool bartender. We chatted and I told him I was hoping to get a tour of sting Ray city for my fiancé since it was his first time there. He immediately made a few phone calls- which was above and beyond- and got us on a tour. We had an amazing day and it was all thanks to Owen!

    What a place! Great food. Unbelievable views over the Caribbean Sea (time it for sunset...you will not be disappointed). Lovely cocktails. The friendliest staff. Just go - you'll love it!

    We went to Rackam’s today for lunch & it wasn’t too busy. (September) The manager & waitress were the nicest hosts. They told us about the food & the island. We fed the fish- Tarpin in the water next to our table. They were huge fish! I enjoyed this as much as the kids would! The food was good & rum punch was perfect on a hot day! We loved sitting outside by the water. The sunshades kept the sun off & the breeze was nice! This is a wonderful place to come for lunch or dinner or just a drink overlooking the water!

    This place has such a great atmosphere - exactly what you’d imagine a seaside bar in the Caribbean to be like. The service was great - our waitress was really lovely and attentive. They have a great burger and beer deal at the weekends. The portion sizes are huge and the burger was nice and juicy and cooked to order. This is a great place to snorkel as well - there are so many fish to see and there were quite a few people who went to the water after their meals. I’d highly recommend this place and I’m sure we will come back often.

    Good food and great views on the Oceanside patio. But pretty warm in the afternoon under small fans. Interior not open. Wonderful Conch Fritters and crisp salads. BEST feature is to look over edge of patio at huge 5’ Tarpons, Clownfish and others. A ladder to water invites you to swim with the fish.

    Great food. You can swim while you wait for your food. Our kids really enjoyed swimming with the tarpons and feeding them. The food was great and the service very friendly.

    Great spot for happy hour and sunset on the water! Most drinks are under$5 from 5-7 plus food specials most under $10. The coconut Shrimp were sweet and crunchy. The tuna roll was very good too. The baked Brie is almost a meal in in itself. Good service and a lovely place for sunset

    Such a nice restaurant. Friendly staff and the food were delicious. I definitely recommend if you're in the Cayman island, you must visit. Breath taking views

    First time we have visited Rackam's and we loved it! The Happy Hour apps and beers were great. Conch Fritters, Coconut Shrimp and Curry Fries were delicious and the Caybrews were cold, refreshing and cheap. I had the Fish & Chips which I really liked. Nice flavor on the fish with a tasty batter. Such a good value and the sunset was beautiful. The server was great and I finally met the owner Tim, and we had a nice chat. Family friendly, good food, good prices, great people and vistas. Will return soon.

    Beautiful environment and dining area. Just next to the water. You can see lot of fish from the deck. Food was really delicious too and nice portion. If you in to snorkeling then stairs are just next to your dining table to go to water👍

    The snapper tacos were tasty and the toppings were perfect! I got the curry cheese fries instead of the regular fries and those were bomb. The curry sauce was throughout all of the fries and not just on top so even the fries on the bottom were tasty.

    Fun experience at Rackhams! Beautiful views of the water and good food! Had the homemade potato chips with blue cheese sauce for appetizer and had the spicy pineapple margarita and the wife got the mudslide. For entrees, my wife got the fish and chips and I got the ribs, all very good and service was great!

    When a fellow condo mate recommends Rackam’s for dinner, well you have to try it out. We were not disappointed, in fact, we came back later in the week for another dinner. Jo was our server both times, and she rocks! Did anyone mention the sunsets from their location? Way cool. As previously. mentioned, the curry fries are truly a must order. You will fall in love with fries all over again. The fish tacos were yummy, but the tuna spring roll I had later in the week was to die for. This was an all around great experience.

    Great place to visit. Tuna spring rolls & snapper tacos are amazing!

    We stopped for a late lunch after a morning snorkel trip. tables are outside, mostly covered. We quickly got menus and ordered drinks. They serve a variety of local beers, cocktails, and non alcohol options. We ordered several items. The food was hot, very well seasoned and very tasty. Seasoning was perfect for an island restaurant. Portions are generous. We had a leisurely meal and watched our ship through an afternoon shower. You should find something here you will like.

    Waterside bar and restaurant. We stopped here after snorkeling for a quick bite to eat. Got a bowl of conch soup, fried calamari, and a pina colada. It was a nice break after a day out exploring.

    We found this place by complete accident, and I'm so glad we did! We stopped at the little booth out front to ask how to get transportation, and the lady was so helpful. While we were waiting, she told us we needed to come back for the tuna spring rolls and the curry cheese fries. She also said we could swim.with the tarpon in the bay! We stopped back by after our excursion, and we were not disappointed. The food, the service, and even the swimming were amazing. Can't wait to come back!

    Delicious local food and great service! The unique ciders are a must try. Got the shrimp and chips and the conch chowder.

    FOOD POISIONING. My wife an I both contracted nasty cases of gastroenteritis after dining at Rackam's during a Celebrity cruise. Pretty sure Rackam's was responsible because hundreds of people ate everything we at on the ship and there was no large outbreak

    Everything about this place was amazing! The food was delicious. The waitress was super nice. You can feed and swim with the fish off the back. This was perfect place to unwind and enjoy a beautiful afternoon with friends!

    Fantastic food. Fantastic service. I will definitely visit again

  • 5/5 David H. 2 years ago on Google
    If you happen to visit George Town, whether on a cruise ship or for a longer visit, this is a great place for perfectly seasoned local specialties and great service. Our group of six was taken care of very quickly and no complaints from any of us regarding our food choices. (And we have some lucky eaters!) The view was great and don't miss the fish swimming alongside the dining area in the crystal clear waters!

    Don't let the bar food vibe be a distraction. The blackened snapper was THE best. And the conch fritters were fantastic. Service was great and the tarpon were a sight to see (even at night).

  • 5/5 Monikah G. 1 year ago on Google
    Limited menu, drinks are good. Food was 3/5...our server was a bit off but generally speaking a good time. Wish they had louder music vibes for the weekend. Was $$$ for what we got

  • 5/5 Olivia G. 1 year ago on Google
    Great spot for lunch. Service is fast, and the food is tasty too. Would like to see fish tacos that aren't fried. I did ask for this, and they were able to accommodate. But, it should be on the menu. Maybe at least offer shrimp tacos? Otherwise, all was well.

  • 5/5 Frank R. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing place to have lunch and enjoy the ocean views. Not to mention Rackam’s has the best fish and chips.Super crispy and not greasy or oily. There are also tons of huge tarpon right by the deck. So cool. Staff was friendly and I go to Rackam’s every time I visit Cayman. Well worth it!

  • 4/5 Andrew H. 1 year ago on Google
    The food was decent. Would give it 5 stars, but the sandwiches had a bit too much bread. There's a ladder right next to the seating area, where you can climb down and swim with the fishes. The bar was nice, and a lot of people stop by for a drink after getting off of the tour boats. Try the Cayman lemonade!

    Got terrible food poisoning from this place, ruined 2 full days of my vacation. The jerk chicken sandwich also had bones in it, drinks were weak. The only highlight was feeding the tarpon. Would avoid at all costs.

  • 5/5 Tomoko 1 year ago on Google
    Whole snapper was fresh and delicious!! Maduros were perfect and amazing! White tip lager was very refreshing! The tuna spring roll was to die for too! Would highly recommend this stop to any guests/travelers! We stopped by while on a cruise. Worth it!!

  • 5/5 Charlotte C. 2 years ago on Google
    Service was a little slow, but the atmosphere is great. Go for the curry cheese fries no matter what. Snorkeling right from the restaurant if you are a good swimmer is a lot of fun. Bring your own gear or rent from a dive shop down the street. The wreck is in pretty shallow water. You have to get into the water surrounded by a large school of tarpon which you will think is either awesome or terrifying!
