So far, the best on St Croix's north/west side. From start to finish our first dining experience was simply awesome. Because of the drive distance and potential traffic we left the house early AND arrived early. Rather than just be seated at our table we went to the outside Bar for mojitos (with fresh mint); the drinks were delish! The conversation by the outside Bartender and most certainly the sunset were both a delight. At the appointed time for our actual reservation we were greeted by the Hostess who made us feel special,"I really think you'll like the table we have for you tonight," and she wasn't wrong. Our Server, Tony, conducted himself with the utmost professionalism, complete with a "boyish" smile and always made sure nothing was out of place including topping off our water glasses whenever needed. At no time during the night did we feel rushed. The food was prepared to perfection; ceviche (app) with Seared Salmon and Filet as the main courses. The restaurant's Inside Bartender delivered our drinks to the table and encouraged us to try them before she left. Grotto seating? We sat next to the ocean; any closer and you would be in the water. Seeing the sun continue to set as we sipped our mojito's was a great experience. We'll be back for sure! read more

Amazing views great for a date night. I suggest you come around Sunset. They have a mixologist here and the staff is very knowledgeable about the food and has great recommendations. The menu does change up sometime and they have special features. read more

Unsure how to review. We arrived at 5:15 for our reservation. Massive rain storm.... lost power and said they couldn't serve us dinner. we received a phone call 2 minutes before our reservation and we were already in the parking lot. We completely got soaked with rain walking in to the restaurant . Sure would've been nice to know about this ahead of time..... We asked if we could buy a drink and they said yes..... Credit card machine had enough power to work . read more

Delicious food, wonderful staff, and beautiful scenery. I highly recommend for a special night out.

Stunning views, highly recommend making a reservation around sunset for a lovely show while you dine. Food was good and portions were generous. The menu does not have a ton of choices but that's how you know they do it right. I got a glass of wine for $11 which was super reasonable. Entrees were $30-40 read more

This place is worth every penny for the views and the ambiance. The food and service were also very good, make sure you get the crab dip. They have a Grotto pool that is absolutely stunning! It has all sorts of sea life swimming in it including a few eels! read more

Excellent choice for our last meal here in STX. I booked a 5:30 reservation near the grotto for a sunset view with dinner and was thrilled with our seating. What an absolutely lovely setting. My cocktail was lacking a little - too sweet- and I wish I would have went with wine. Otherwise we loved dinner! The cheese plate was fantastic, and I enjoyed the yellowfin crudo as well - though I might soften up the beets a bit by shredding vs cubing. I had the almond crusted mahi and the coconut rice was excellent. Loved the fish as well. My daughters split the vegetable melange and I was able to try some - fantastic! The lobster fettuccini was ok to my palate - my son had wanted to try lobster and there was a generous portion of it atop a fairly unremarkable bed of fettuccini Alfredo. We shared the cheesecake creme brûlée to finish the evening. The server was lovely and was 100% willing to take our family photo - I'm sure she does that multiple times a day! read more

We stopped here with a reservation on our first night in St. Croix. I can see why their reservations are booked out and I am grateful we were able to get in here early. The food is absolutely amazing and full of flavor and the service was above and beyond not to mention the ambience of the ocean rolling in and the tiki torches gave it an amazing Atmosphere I wish we had more places like this back home make this must stop, but please remember you will need a reservation to get in here. This place stays crowded and busy!!! read more

Really awesome view, and experience to have a meal right on the ocean. Good was really great - I had the lobster pasta dish. Rum cake could have benefited from more rum. Service from EJ was awesome - our waiter (tall gentleman was a little busy and slightly snippy). All in all, nice experience. A must do. read more

The food, ambience, view and service was first rate. Everyone serves roasted Brussels sprouts these days, with varying results, but the sprouts here are the best I've tasted. The almond crusted mahi was delicious. I can't imagine a more beautiful view than from the tables at Ama. Some had pounding surf just a few feet away (but without splashing anyone, or the table). I would call this restaurant a required experience for all visitors. Prices are decent, compared to the restaurants in the Frederiksted area. read more

Amazing food ..service and veiws. Excellent place for date night or to impress your clients or friends.

By far the best meal we had on the island and the best ambiance and service. This place is literally right on the water so the ocean breeze and soft sounds of waves crashing against the rocks were nice additions to the overall experience. Definitely a great place to go for a romantic dinner, but if you go with a group you can sample more of the menu so keep that in mind. read more

Amazing staff, wonderful flavorful food. Enjoyed a relaxing sunset anniversary dinner. We both had Lamb chops (one of the specials for the night.) Tender, tasty, the spinach was so flavorful. I also had the cauliflower bisque. Amazing. We finished with tiramisu and frozen chocolate soufflé. My heart is happy and my belly is full. read more

My brother suggested going here group of 5 people . Greeted and seated quickly. Service was mediocre. We ordered two smoked Caesar salads. One with dressing on there, one with dressing on the side and extra dressing.. both salads came with dressing on the side. I tried to turn around and call for him to come back, but apparently you didn't hear me we ended up eating the rest of the salad with no dressing.. I ordered the scallops with lobster add on the scallops were salty lobster was over cooked and tough. My brothers ordered the surf and turf they all like the large filet. Server only came around a few times. We needed more butter but waiter did not come back to check on our meal until after we were done. My brother told me that service is what I should expect on the island but I guess I'm not used it. .We spent over $400 I expected better. read more

This place is special: appropriate for both fancy dining or more casual drinks at the Sunset bar. The views are insane, the cocktails and dinner was excellent. I'm shocked I didn't take any pics of the food. I wish I could give 4.75 stars, the only ding was requesting the table by the water (as specified in the reservation) and was accommodated promptly, yet I sensed a bit begrudgingly, which set the brusque tone of service for the rest of the eve. Nonetheless, this should definitely be on your must dine list if on the island. read more

Amazing ambience! We had booked seats at the bar but they had a table right down on the sea wall. It was secluded from the other tables and perfect view of the water! We had the crab soufflé - yum! I had a bela Rosa cocktail - delicious! And then we had the lobster fettuccine and the mahi - both were amazing! Key lime pie and chocolate chip bread pudding for desert made it all perfect! The only thing I'd say is that we got seated at 6 and finally just asked for our desert to go after we had waited for 10 plus minutes for desert. It's darker down by where we were seated and it had been a long day so we were just done. They were nice enough to box everything up but no plastic wear to go. Beyond that - there was absolutely nothing to complain about as our server was gracious and everything was wonderful! So romantic! read more

Pretty Amazing restaurant on the North Shore. Beautiful setting right on the water. The food was amazing. Fish tasted fresh out of the water. Bartender forged some immaculate cocktails, and the wine list was top class. Note: you must make a reservation via their website and DEFINITELY best to do it at least a day in advance as they seemingly fill all tables most... if not all nights. Also note, they do have an outdoor lounge that only serves quacamole and ceviche only for snacks, but both are delicious. Ama is a 'must try' sort of place if you're staying in the area. read more

If you're a party of (at most) four, you CAN'T visit St Croix without having dinner here. It's worth the ambiance alone what with it being right on the water. My wife and I had a drink at the bar while we waited for our table then we're seated by the water which is the closest you can ever comfortably sit by the water and have fancy dinner.Food was phenomenal as expected. You have have an island mind about what's available despite what's on the menu which is rare but it happened to us, but the alternative was still amazing and again it happens throughout the island. IMPORTANT: If you want to be seated by the water, try to reserve as early as possible. Eating from the main dining area isn't bad either, but it's IDEAL for date night. read more

Ehhhh.... Besides the server this place was actually mid asf. The medium well steak was actually beyond well done. The signature drink for the evening, called a midnight banana was not it. Granted it's right right off the ocean and you can see waves crash up on a rocky shore; however for a $49 stalk, it should have been a bit better. My boyfriend's mashed potatoes were a bit cold and he spoke up. I believe Jaida was our server. View was one of the best on the island for a sunset. read more

LOCATION: Amazing dining locale for a romantic sunset evening. Bring your sunglasses and come before sunset. The 30-40 minutes AFTER sunset are truly golden. The ocean was up so the lower dining level was cleared of tables. We dined on the upper deck and escaped getting wet. SERVICE: The waiter was too familiar. The term, 'smarmy' came to mind as the waiter tried to wow us. FOOD: The food was solid but not anything to draw foodies. The big hooray was for the amazing Brussel sprouts. Excellent!! But the rest of the dinner was downhill. Both the daily special Crab encrusted Wahoo and the Almond encrusted Mahi were over cooked. The Mahi was actually tough and dry. The shrimp ceviche was NOT ceviche at all (which should be acidic with the vinegar used to cook the seafood) but rather boiled shrimp tossed with some cucumber. Nasty. Couldn't find much crab in the crab dip. It was just a mayo based sauce. Truffle infused mash potatoes was very good and well matched with the Wahoo. Tiramisu was a firm affair that was on the dry side and relatively tasteless. read more

AMA did not disappoint! I selected this restaurant for my birthday dinner with my family and friends, this by far was the best selection I'd made during our four days in St. Croix. AMA has breath taking views that are literally on the water! It, was intimate, sexy and romantic all wrapped up in one! Although their menu options were very limited, we all found something delicious to dine on -- to include one in our group with a seafood allergy. Our waiter was great, very helpful! We ended up being "stranded" by our taxi driver from our hotel and our waiter was so accommodating that he'd had someone come to get us. AMA was truly a special restaurant with spectacular views, you will not be disappointed! read more

Absolute five star setting. Tables are perched on a rocky ledge just a few feet from the crashing surf. Spectacular! Food was nearly that good. Crab dip appetizer was okay, but didn't taste much like crab. Filet was wonderful and lobster fra diavlo was not-too-spicy and had a lot of fresh local lobster meat. Fair warning...the drive to the restaurant on Northside is kind of terrifying. One and one-half lane, curving road cut through the brush on the edge of the water. read more

OMG. Most perfect restaurant meal. Everything was superb. Absolutely gorgeous location up close to the crashing waves. My wife had an outstanding French 75 to start. The smoked Caesar salad was savory and delicious and paired wonderfully with the crab soufflé dip. The salmon was perfectly cooked in a curry sauce and the Ahi tuna special over rice was marvelous. The key west key lime pie was orgasmically good. Every dish had us awed and extolling its virtues. Service was great. A perfect start to a St. Croix vacation. Don't miss this extraordinary small, intimate restaurant. Hats off to the chef. read more

First, the food is incredible. We basically ordered everything on the menu. Can't go wrong with anything. Negative: DO NOT go before 6:00. The sun will beat you within an inch of your life. They also said the fans were broken, but happened to work as soon as we paid our bill. Also, the mosquitos were savage. Think I left with 26 bites. read more

We asked for the best table in the house, and we got it, right at sunset along the tidal pool. It was better than a sunset sail with crashing waves at our feet. The mixed drinks are standouts (the spicy tequila cocktail in particular). The food was also excellent (had the lobster pasta, mahi mahi and tuna tatare special). Even the peanut butter pie was atypically good. But the main reaon to go is the proposal-worthy romantic setting, one of the best I've seen except maybe the former St. Regis in Kauai. read more

One of the best restaurants I've been to and definitely our family favorite on the island!! Gorgeous views and great service. Steak, lobster fettuccine, brussel sprouts, mahi, all amazing and 5/5.

It's hard to imagine a more beautiful spot for a meal. The tables are directly next to the water. I kept wondering if I was going to get splashed. (I didn't. The tiny sea wall was just the right height.) I had a drink at the bar before dinner. The bartender was courteous and made a good martini. Service at dinner was good but a bit slow despite a low table to server ratio. Perhaps it was a long walk to the kitchen. The wine list was average My scallops appetizer was delicious. Perfectly cooked in a sauce that complimented the flavor marvelously. The lobster, however, was disappointing. Part of this was because I don't believe the server accurately conveyed the price. I was surprised to see it cost $90 when I received the bill. This seemed pretty expensive for a local lobster tail. It seemed a bit over cooked to me. The tail was butterflied and probably kept on the grill a bit too long. A minor complaint, but at this price point something closer to perfect should be expected. read more

This dining experience was our favorite setting on the island... it is literally ON the water at Cane Bay. The hot crab dip appetizer was delicious & our dinners were amazing. Fresh wahoo was the special that evening and was buttery & perfectly cooked. Very attentive service, but the highlight here is the setting! read more
