The shrimp and cheesy grits had a roux that was reminiscent of what I've had in Louisiana. Totally rocked it. They don't have desserts on the menu, but the chef whipped up something on the spot. It was a grill slice of angel food cake with apples, and she topped it with homemade caramel and oats. I stopped in later during my stay on the island and had the breakfast jambalaya. The addition of a fried egg and avocado kicked it up several notches. Glad I passed by this cafe and stopped in. Everything was full of flavor, and the cocktails really stood out. If I were in St. Croix now, I would certainly go back.

The location is perfect, right on the boardwalk with beautiful views, and the staff was super friendly and welcoming. For dinner, we came back and were just as impressed. I ordered the crab fries -- phenomenal. My boyfriend had pasta with mussels, and it was packed with flavor and absolutely delicious. And again -- the drinks were amazing!

Prices match the portion size and quality of the plates. Open table concept, with views of the boat harbor. Can get a bit loud with boats revving engines and blasting music. Bill was courteous, friendly and attentive, even sharing a few good stories of his two year tenure. Ask him to share his run in with a Danish patron, wow! Overall, food, service, cleanliness makes this a go to spot again!

She runs a small, largely one-person operation, and that personal touch shows in both the atmosphere and the food. Her cooking reflects a traditional, family-style Dominican approach--simple, authentic, and done right. We ordered the pollo guisado (stewed chicken), which was rich and comforting. I opted for something lighter with shrimp in butter, served alongside fresh vegetables, rice, and beans. The meal was rounded out with a generous portion of plantains. A key point to understand before going: this is not a rushed dining experience. Service moves at a slower, island pace, so adjust expectations accordingly and settle in. Also, check hours in advance, as they are not consistent day-to-day. If you go in with the right mindset, Zeny's offers a genuine, unfiltered local experience that's increasingly hard to find.

Attentive without being overbearing. And then there's the food and drink. First off, I love red wine and once upon a time amassed a pretty legit 800+ bottle collection. They had gems from my cellar on the list! On an island in the middle of the Caribbean! What?! I've not seen Turley on a wine list outside of the mainland in a decade, for example. And they had 4 different Turley options. Including one by the glass. Amazing. The food matched everything that preceded it; simply outstanding and captured a sublime balance of island and haute cuisine. The Lazy Lobster crawled mercilessly into our bellies, melded with plush mashed potatoes and perfectly al dente asparagus and a delicate sauce. The Lamb Shank masterpiece, served over gnocchi and the most wonderful au jus, melted over the palate, delivering a resounding umami "whoa" tingle. Both paired beautifully with our wine selections. Dessert was a rum strawberry masterpiece, complimented by one of the best espresso martinis we've ever had, and a generous pour of Angel's Envy bourbon. One of the best meals of our lives, anywhere, and we've been to some of the best restaurants on the planet. Maybe it was the sea breeze, maybe it was kismet, but regardless, we loved it start to finish and highly recommend Savant. We're no idiots!

Around the back of the restaurant is a covered outdoor courtyard with lush plants, a full bar, and lots of seating (extra points for the fans, the air circulation is phenomenal). Next the service. Impeccable. Every person that we encounter from the host, the bar tender and the waitress were so very friendly. I appreciated the recommendations that they had to offer on food and drinks (because everything looked so good). Some of the best service I've had on the island so far. Now finally, the FOOD!! You could tell it's was going to be good just from how the staff spoke about it. We had three appetizers (lobster egg rolls, ceviche, and calamari). Each were very unique and flavorful, great size for sharing, everything you hope for in good appetizers. For my entree I was torn between many different things, but with the help of staff I decided to go with the bacon wrapped double pork chop. And WOW I'm so happy I did. I always fear with pork chops of a dry, hard to chew meal but this was far from reality. The cut of meat was so juicy and easy to cut and chew. The flavor was fantastic. Cooked to perfection. For dessert I decided to go with a classic vanilla rum cake and it was perfect. I loved Savant, it was an experience from start to finish. 10000/10 recommend that you try this restaurant when on St. Croix!

Truly each of these dishes had something special about them and were all FANTASTIC! Presentation, texture, flavor all amazing. I still think about the Brie five days later writing this review. I wish I took more photos! For entree I had the steak. It was a New York Strip with house made chimichurri, and a sweet potato mash. Wow it was the best steak I've had in a long time. All the flavors on the plate complimented each other so beautifully. Again, I wish I took more pictures!! Dessert was a delight all on its own. The Crème Brûlée was smooooooth as can be. Not a single lump or bump. The plantain foster really did steal the spotlight on the dessert. It was warm and gooey and flavorful and perfect! There was some foster sauce left over that we ended up mixing with some crème brûlée and it was heaven. One of the intriguing aspects of this place was the chef was on the TV show 'Beat Bobby Flay'... iykyk. I definitely can see how he beat him. If you're on STX it's a must that you dine at 1756 Grotto! I will 100% be returning. More pictures next time ;)
