    We wanted to make sure we tried some good food while visiting found this place & decided to give them a try. We came & we're seated right away drinks just water since we needed an alcohol break. I had the Roasted chicken, Mac & cheese & the dumplings , really good chicken & mac nice flavor , taste to the meat. The dumplings ok for me. Hubby had the blackened Salmon with veggies, mash potatoes & dumplings salmon was very good, good veggies & mash potatoes. Cute little place, simple decor good service & prices we had a great meal certainly worth the try.

    Everytime I come home a visit a stop here is a must. Getting some island food into my system immediately helps make the hours on airplanes worth it. I recommend everything. You just have to know your tastebuds and what you are craving that day. I usually go with the oxtail, but this time I went with the mutton. Next time it might be something else. Also you must try a local drink. I usually always go for passion fruit or sorrel, but once again you have to know what you are feeling. Service is quick, but parking can get tricky sometimes.

    This place was amazing. It felt like a real local restaurant. when I receive my food, I couldn't stop eating it It was so tasty I finished everything The service was fast and easy it was quick food, but we ran into a problem charging the credit cards. They do a 4% charge on cards I found that very sketchy and the business trying to beat the tax system or something. Cash was a no extra charge.

    After speaking to a local, we came here for some authentic Caribbean food! I had the oxtail with the stuffing, Mac and cheese and fried plantains. My husband had the porkchops. We also had the homemade juice. The food was amazing! This is what we had been wanting our entire trip! It was filling and a taste of St. Thomas! The juice was good too but very expensive. Looked like each cup of juice was $4 each and we got 2 cups each. The bill was a little high for our 2 meals and the drinks but our stomachs were satisfied. Go to Arian's for authentic island food!

    A short ways off the beaten trail of cruise ship visitors, Arian's is a local place serving down home local dishes. They were open 11-4 for lunch when we were there and they were jammed with locals, blue collar and professionals alike. We were the only tourists in the place, but they treated us like king and queen. My wife had the kingfish with all the Caribbean spices. It was very good. I had the conch in butter sauce. It tasted great, like scallops cooked in butter. The Mac and cheese was also very good. If you are in St Thomas and you want a nice seafood meal away from the tourists, give Arian's a try. We really enjoyed it.

    Happy Friday...early start to the weekend...let's eat good...

    Conch was good, Oxtail was amazing. This spot is a local go to. Can be a little tough to find but worth the search.

We originally had another restaurant on our radar but BOY were we happy we decided to take the short walk from the ship pier to Cravin' Crabs! They even serve Pancit (a delicious filipino noodle/spaghetti dish) I was not expecting to see that on the menu! Then when we left we realized there's a Filipino deli right next-door. So apparently it's authentic. The seafood was fresh and all the sides were unique and scrumptious! There was one side we enjoyed, we were not sure what it was, we could only decide it was the mashed potatoes, it tasted and had the texture more of some sort of dressing. Our server asked if we wanted some of the Tuscan seafood gravy on it and Yes, Yes, yes!! We did!! There was a little bit of a language barrier but we just pointed at what we wanted and it all worked out!! The food is right in front of you like cafeteria style so you can see what you are getting. My husband and I split one Tuscan Seafood plate with two sides, that was MORE than enough for the two of us for lunch. We'd definitely go back next time we are in ST. Thomas. Bravo!

Also ordered a side of shrimp and that was also 10:10! Upon entering you approach the counter to order and they make your plate. The line moves pretty fast. There is both inside and outside seating.

    I love when I get excited to write a review for a new restaurant I tried on vacation. This trip…read moretook me to St. Thomas, and being an island community, it also meant seafood, which I love and is hard to come by in Phoenix, AZ. The Fish Market sits on the beach at the bottom of the Elysian Hotel. While you can walk there, it's a long, winding road through the hotel grounds. While I want to say we were met with a warm island welcome, instead, we were met by a grouchy young lady who seemed less than happy to be working or enjoying her day. On a positive note, our waitress, Kieke, was delightful and sweet and a complete opposite from the hostess. As for the food, let me be honest when I say it was one of the top two seafood meals I've had in my life. I got the crab-stuffed grouper with broccolini and couscous. It was cooked perfectly and had a sauce that was delicious! At the end of the day, this was a great experience, and if you can get down to the restaurant (which is a hike), you will absolutely enjoy the meal and ask for Kieke and ignore the rude hostess.

    We came to Caribbean Fish Market on a Sunday for brunch and it was such a great vibe overall.

Both were really good; the nachos were super fresh and flavorful with a nice mix of textures, and the scramble was light but still filling with plenty of veggies. Definitely felt like a good, balanced brunch option. The service was great, friendly, attentive, and everything came out at a good pace. The only thing that wasn't my favorite was the Bloody Mary. It had a pretty strong horseradish kick, which just isn't my thing, but if you like that extra spice you'd probably enjoy it. Overall, great food, beautiful setting, and a solid brunch spot. I'd absolutely come back (and probably stick to mimosas next time!).

    Beware of the Automatic Gratuity…read more We stopped at Hook'd USVI during our visit to St. Thomas. The location is great, the marina views are nice, and the food was okay. We ordered the Fish Tacos, Jerk Smashed Burger, and a Frozen Rum Runner. What future customers need to know is that Hook'd automatically added a 20% gratuity to our bill, even though we were not a large party. Then, at the bottom of the receipt, they included another tip guide suggesting 18%, 20%, and 22% tips. In my opinion, this is misleading. Many people are used to adding a tip when they receive the receipt and may not notice that a 20% gratuity has already been added. It's easy to accidentally tip twice. I have absolutely no issue rewarding good service, but restaurants should be upfront and transparent when gratuity is automatically included. Customers shouldn't have to carefully inspect the bill to avoid paying an extra 20% on top of an already-added 20%. The food was decent, the atmosphere was pleasant, but the billing practice left a bad impression. Before you sign your check, review it carefully and make sure you know exactly what has already been added. Bottom line: Decent food, nice location, but check your receipt closely. The automatic 20% gratuity and additional tip suggestions can easily lead to double tipping if you're not paying attention. I've attached a photo of the receipt so customers can see exactly what I'm referring to.

I ended up showing up early so I was only able to see and try the breakfast menu and drinks, so those are the only items I can rate Ambiance: 5 stars. It's an open floor plan right on the dock. We were able to sit right next to the water and get some fresh air. The place isn't too loud, but very inviting. They have a bottomless mimosa option and this place feels like it would be a great brunch vibe Service: 4 stars. Staff was super nice and waitress was helpful in regards of what to order. There was an issue with steak being overcooked and they were able to replace it, but it did take taking to 3 different people, which I thought was weird Drinks: 3.5 stars. The Rum away with me was absolutely wonderful, but the White Russian was not good at all Food : 4.5 stars Steak and eggs was fantastic. We had to get the steak recooked, but when it was made well, it was a top shelf steak. Crab cakes: also would recommend! No notes here Breakfast burger:,really loved the fact that the patty was smashed. I was worried that there was too much going on but everything combined quite nicely. I got the breakfast potatoes and they weren't really anything special. Overall this place was a 4.5 stars, but I'm rounding up to 5 because the vibe and views were immaculate
