The appetizers took an hour to come out and I have no idea what the cooks were doing. The food was cold and spoke to the chef and all he did was take off for the cheapest meal and which was cold also. If I could give a no star I would. Food was cold and tough. I spoke with the head chef Carlos not really wanting to appease to our experience. We didn't even get an apology for the long wait. This is my family's first and last time going there. Especially being on vacation. I highly doubt not recommend this place at all and it's highly disappointing due to the location of the place that set the ambiance off from what could've been a memorable moment.

Steal of a deal on the lobster thermidor!…read more Just a great spot on the bay in what I'd call a shopping plaza surrounded by other eateries. On the other side of the road from Cupe Coy (if you're not into bathing au naturale, beware!), this towards the rear of the complex towards the boat docks. The staff was laidback, friendly, and gregarious. When asked for a recommendation, our server was knowledgeable and perceptive. The apps were excellent. There was a decadent dip and plantain cups with different meats in them. Very good, great value. The mains (so, meo culpa here, I forgot what The Scientist had, I was busy with item number one, supra) are hearty portions priced well below other spots on the island. Never having had lobster thermidor before, it had to happen. It was spiny lobster, which was appreciated. The more firm/dense meat, along with the less sweet (neutral) flavor of the spiny lobster lent itself to the cream and shallots I tasted. If you're going for decadent without a hefty price tag, this is your spot.

Their ribs were the best we tried on the island. The oxtail was the best we tried on the island. I fell in love with the curry goat roti. It tasted like it came straight from Trinidad. I wiped my plate clean and wished I had taken a picture. I ordered the drink special and swapped the tequila for rum. Diane, the bartender, made it sweet and smooth with coconut cream. It was so good I am naming it the Ashley. If you like coconut and sweet drinks, you will enjoy it. Our waitress Joe and Connor took great care of us. The service matched the food. The ribs were so tender the bone slid right out. My boyfriend and I split them as an appetizer and cleaned the bones. The cheesecake was also delicious. Every single thing we ate here was amazing. I would recommend this place. We are coming back. I want the curry shrimp next time and my boyfriend plans to get the curry goat again.

We drove 5mins back to our space and it was still crispy and warm. GREAT honey mustard if that's your thing! The stuffed shrimp were cooked perfectly. The crab stuffing was more stuffing than crab. Appetizer size. Still fresh shrimp, good size. Well seasoned. The rhum crème brûlée was perfect. Crispy crackly crust.

Absolutely amazing!!…read more Unassuming and not pretentious while still being clean, friendly, accommodating, and delicious. This was one of our favorites dinners while we visited Saint Maarten. The husband and wife owners are absolutely incredible. My son ordered the spaghetti. I ordered the lobster and my husband ordered the whole snapper. Spaghetti- the chef came over and grated fresh Parmesan over the spaghetti...delicious Lobster- couldn't decide if I wanted it prepared creole style or Thermidor. The wife made a decision for me and had each half prepared differently. I was soooo grateful and tipped accordingly because that was a lot of work. My husband and I planned to share the lobster and he doesn't like tomatoes so they left the fresh tomatoes out of the creole side and added okra (I love okra but my husband hates them). My husband tried it nonetheless and loved it. The lobster was delicious! Curried Whole snapper - AMAZING! The food and all the sides were served piping hot and my husband REALLY appreciated that. He also appreciated the size of the snapper (maybe about 2.5lbs). He ordered whole snapper at every restaurant we visited and this location had the largest whole fish. The view from the restaurant is amazing. They play music in the square that you enter to access the restaurant. The music is loud enough to hear while dining. Not sure if it's an every night thing or not. Music was fine. Overall, we were really happy to spend our money here!

As I stated before the waiters and servers were top notch. With that said, the kitchen was the issue. My wife ordered a lobster bisque or should I say a soup. To add insult to injury, there was literally one chunk of lobster that was almost half inch in size. The family did enjoy the bread, but the main meals had several misses that caused this restaurant to be a two star. I will start with my wife who had the lasagna. She said it was really good and could have been a dish from Italy (We were there last December). My daughter had the gnocchi and a side of meatballs. She stated the gnocchi was bland, but the meatballs were good. My son, started as a couple failures. First he ordered a beef tenderloin fillet. After being told that they were out he ordered the New York strip medium rare. When the food finally made it to the table it was rare. After sending it back the second one was cooked better. However the steak you could taste the rosemary, but was still no salt. Once adding salt to the steak it tasted good. He ordered a side of pasta which he really enjoyed. Finally, my order, I ordered the whole lobster. To start, the size of this lobster for $79 was a joke and if the lobster was good, I would have felt better! Not having a Caribbean Lobster before I was not sure how it was supposed to be and I wished I would have asked when I took my first bite. The lobster was supposed to be a grilled item. I was so looking forward to this lobster to be TOTALLY disappointed! The lobster was actually over cooked. I only found out after I was leaving because I asked how the consistency was supposed to be. If you only care about scenery and pasta this is the place for you! Anything else, there are a lot of options in the area to choose from.
