Leola by Scott Conant is a refined Italian restaurant at the Grand Hyatt Baha Mar in Nassau, The Bahamas, offering one of the most elevated dining experiences on the island. Created by two-time James Beard Award-winning chef Scott Conant, Leola blends timeless Italian sophistication with soulful Bahamian hospitality.
Conceived as the crown jewel of Conant’s restaurant portfolio, Leola Baha Mar embodies an elegant yet approachable vision of modern Italian dining where craftsmanship, comfort, and connection meet. The menu showcases Conant’s signature cuisine, featuring handmade pastas, pristine seafood, and premium meats inspired by the traditions of cucina rustica and the refinement of alta cucina. Each dish highlights the beauty of simplicity, seasonal ingredients, and Conant’s unmistakable sense of style.
Guests can enjoy an exceptional wine list with a focus on Italian Barolo vintages and a bespoke cocktail program inspired by Mediterranean flavors. Leola’s interiors, designed by Restoration Hardware, evoke the elegance of a 1920s Italian speakeasy that is swanky and sophisticated yet warm and inviting. Every detail, from the lighting to the service style, reflects sprezzatura, the effortless elegance that defines the restaurant’s atmosphere.

At its core, Leola at Baha Mar is more than a restaurant. It is a celebration of modern Italian cuisine, fine dining in Nassau, and the soulful beauty of hospitality elevated to its highest form.
