De' Coal Pot in St. Thomas? What a hidden treasure tucked away in the Crosswind Center plaza on the…read moreEast End, near Smith Bay and Lindquist Beach, this spot's a bit of a challenge to find, like a secret level in an island adventure game. Bring plenty of cash (it's often cash-only or prefers it), and yeah, it can run a tad pricey for authentic Caribbean eats, but the payoff's huge: think phenomenal steamed red snapper, tender oxtail, creole chicken, and classic roti made with fresh, home-cooked love . The fun starts with the hunt itself out in the middle of nowhere vibes then bam, you're there, often with the place to yourself like we did late one night. Only one other couple rolled in mid-meal, decked out head-to-toe as Thing One and Thing Two from Dr. Seuss first-grade ridiculous, but it cracked us up and straight-up made my night. Five-star gem for genuine island flavor, quirky charm, and memories that stick worth every twist and turn to get there!

The decor and furnishings are basic, but get the job done! We weren't real hungry, but wanted to try this very recommended place. So glad we did! We shared the oxtail entree, with fried plantains, veggies and pasta on the side. Delicious! We'd definitely go back. Recommend De' Coal Pot!

They have a decent beer menu, and a very rough, dockside aesthetic that you would expect at a sea side pub. Service was quick. Finding the bathroom was a bit of a challenge, as you need a key from the bar to access it.

We yelped this restaurant and were very pleased with the result. Understand that the Yelp…read moredirections guide you to the wrong place. This restaurant is on the second floor of a shopping plaza. It's mainly an outdoor restaurant with a bar directly in the middle as you walk up the stairs see picture. This seems to be a local's spot. My kids were happy there was pizza on the menu. My wife ordered the ITP DELUXE, my kids ordered the CLASSIC CHEESE PIZZA with pepperoni and I have the TUNA POKE. Everything was on point and delicious. Brian our waiter was attentive and got our orders in quickly. They share bathroom's which were disgusting, usually if you follow my reviews you know I take away a star for bad bathrooms. This one was shared so I really couldn't. This restaurant is a hidden gem. Check the views on my pics.

IMPORTANT: This review is for "The Patio at Sunset Grille," which is different from the more formal…read moreSunset Grille restaurant. I couldn't find the Patio as a Google Maps option, so here you go. For the record, this was a find, and we are so glad we chose to eat on the patio. The Patio is outside, so be aware. However, the prices are half of the restaurant and are more of a simple meal than the restaurant. Lexie was our server and, honestly, one of the best and more memorable servers I can remember having in a long time. She was professional and yet down to earth and conversational. We threw her questions, and she was honest about her recommendations. PLUS, she was right in her opinion! So, we ordered three items off the menu with the Ahi Nachos, Grilled Mahi Sandwich, and Mudpie being the items suggested. All three were great, and the nachos were a highlight until the HUGE Mudpie stole the show. Cold coffee ice cream with Oreo crust and chocolate drizzle hit the spot watching the sunset. At the end of the day, The Patio is spacious with a full bar and sits right on the beach. It can get warm, and when the sun went down, the bugs came out; however, it didn't take away from our meal and our incredible service from Lexie.

I recommend any of the appetizers, the pork chop, sea bass, red snapper, and filet mignon. Any dessert is so good ! The service there is phenomenal!!! Everybody is so nice and respectful. They are attentive so you can easily have what you need. Great people, great food, and great VIEWS. If you get lucky enough to be seated by the ocean, which just about everyone is, the views are just incredible!!! You can get great family pics and I even decided to take a photo of the view so you can see for yourself what it looks like from where I was sitting. Such a great place Definitely 5 Stars

There is no view of the marina or ocean, but the seating is all open air and they play great classic rock. The drink menu is limited but they have a full bar so you just need to ask for what you want. I started with the Reef Island IPA which is a very tasty and smooth IPA. The wife had a rum punch which she said was weak. For food, the kid had a burger but did not like it because it needed seasoning. I tried a bite and agreed. The fries were crispy. For entrees, the wife and I each had fish tacos: mine, blackened; hers, grilled, Mine were much better. Both were tasty and hit the spot. For $19, it was reasonable. I would order them again. Service was very attentive and friendly. They automatically add 20% tip to the bill, plus 4% for credit cards. So you don't have add any tip unless you want to. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at the restaurant and the relaxed atmosphere.

Some of the worst I've ever had. My waitress Julia tried to say everyone has particular crab cakes tastes, but I told her these crab cakes were burnt and objectively bad. I will note that the mussels and soup were good. The Grouper and Wahoo were just okay. Overall this is a spot that you come to enjoy happy hour at as the drinks were good, but don't come expecting delicious food. That's not this! **Please follow me on Instagram & TikTok @NickEatzWorld and check out all my reviews and travel recommendations**
