We were informed that there might be a wait because of a large party. The timing was still comparable to other locations on the island. * fabulous drink options.

We were immediately and graciously greeted by our hostess/server/bartender all-in-one Tiffany. She had the most charismatic personality and smile. I loved her energy! She explained the menu to us first timers and she even brought us complimentary drinks to try! The menu basically featured an array of proteins (chicken, shrimp, wings, salmon, etc) and sauces (jerk, creole, teriyaki, and the special shama sauce) you can pair it with. Sadly they no longer serve curry goat and they were out of oxtail the day we went. Each order also comes with choice of 2 sides. I ordered the jerk salmon with side of rice and peas and plantains. My salmon was perfectly cooked and seasoned. I loved the slightly peppery spice from the jerk seasoning. The plantains were delicious. The rice was a little dry for my taste but went well with my salmon. My fiancé got the wings in shama sauce and this was SO GOOD. Would recommend. He also got a massive portion order of macaroni and cheese. They definitely make sure you don't leave hungry here. My friend got the shrimp and it was nicely seasoned as well. Prices were very reasonable for the portion. Everything was so plentiful! I had enough leftovers for a second meal. The only reason I can't give this 5 stars is the ambiance. The decor is very bare bone and feels like much more of a take out place than somewhere you would go for a nice lunch. There's also two TVs and they blast the sound here which can be very distracting when your group is trying to have a conversation. The bathroom could also use some TLC. Otherwise, the service and food was definitely a 5 stars experience for me. Would gladly return next time I'm in Saint Thomas!

We had the Rasta pasta, rice with pigeon peas, mixed veg and plantains on our first stop here. Jerk chicken was extremely tender and the sauce was the perfect amount of spice.

Decent sized portions but everything was delicious and we wanted more! Prices are reasonable and match the portion sizes.

Something went slightly amiss which may have been our fault. We ordered and then went outside to get a table. We went back in and stood waiting for our food as many people who came after us received their order. Finally, the cook asked if this was our order and gave us a paper bag with our food. I think the system needs to be better. They should have called out our name or something. The consequence for waiting for so long was food that was not hot. The wife's croissant turned soggy from the condensation in the foil wrapper. My lox bagel was ok but nothing spectacular. I supposed it was ok at $15 given how high prices are in general. The wife felt the same way about her egg, sausage, and cheese croissant. It was not bad but not great. You sit outside to eat. There are tables outside the cafe. You can also go closer to the beach and find a table.

I found this bakery on yelp and the reviews let me know this was the authentic experience I was looking for. I ordered salt fish ($6 for a big bowl), dumbread with cheese ($2), and a Guava Tart ($2). The salt fish was so flavorful. The dumbread was fresh and the bread was sweet. They also use the thick cheddar cheese and warm it up upon request. The Guava tart was a great treat as well. It had a cinnamon flavor and filled with big chunks of guava fruit and guava jelly. I was completely satisfied and I cannot wait to go back next month to try other things on the menu. They are open nice and early and it's a little red door that can be easy to miss. If you're visiting St. Thomas and looking for a real authentic food experience do not miss out on this place!!! The lady who served me was also very nice and welcoming.

Three of us were shopping mid-morning and asked each vendor for a good place for breakfast. All recommended a well-known place. Unfortunately, we'd eaten there previously on this trip and wanted something different and better. The nice lady at Xxxxx recommended Calypso. She was sooo excited describing their delicious crepes. Well we found our way to Diamond Dire t and run to Calypso. I had a veggie omelette with whole wheat toast. The veggies were fresh and the omelette quite tasty. My brother (a carnivore) had some scrambled eggs with bacon on the side. When the plate arrived, the aroma of the perfectly cooked bacon brought an approving smile to everyone's face. My nephew had an "Indian" omelette (with ham and veggies). Quite delicious. He also had a freshly made fruit smoothy. I sampled 2 of the coffees, and liked them both. I settled for the strong one with a shot of Bailey's Irish Cream. Scrumptious!! The hostess and the chef were so sweet, attentive and friendly. Made us feel like "regulars". I will definitely be returning to Calypso on my next trip to St. Thomas! "D & M" at Calypso: Thank you for a "delicious and nutritious" breakfast. But more so for a real, personal, warm experience.

We didn't get the same positive vibes as other fellow Yelpers. Sorry to say…read more To start, it's a confusing layout in a historical building. You walk through a jewelry store to get to a small restaurant that combines Virgin Islands Ice Cream shop with Calypso Cafe. Most of the seats were taken, and all we saw was a line to place your order at the front. My husband waited in line while I found a table that hadn't been cleaned yet. It was very busy there. He ordered us 2 brownies and 2 bottles of water for $16. The lady at the counter gave herself a tip by taking $3 of the change and giving him back $1. He was going to give her all the change ($4) back, but after that incident he was floored. To add insult to injury, she didn't give us what we paid for. She proceeded to help the next person in line for an ice cream shake order. We waited and waited and no one acknowledged us after trying to flag someone down. We finally got the attention of a different lady who was helping people who were seated in the back. I think her name is Cameron. She didn't fully understand our frustration, and we had to explain that we didn't get the items that we had already paid for. She made it all right, and even offered to warm up the brownies. We just didn't feel like waiting longer for it. I'm giving benefit of the doubt here since maybe we just didn't understand the ordering system. Maybe there's a service charge that we didn't know about. How could we? We didn't even get a receipt. Perhaps there's another line for Calypso Cafe? I don't know. Honestly, the lady at the counter should have informed Cameron before proceeding on to the next customer. It only takes 2 seconds. I mean, really! Will we go back? Absolutely not! We'll go somewhere else the next time we're in Charlotte Amalie. It wasn't worth the long wait for 2 bakery items and water.
