I had the fried conch and my boyfriend had the jerk chicken. My favorite part of the meal was the rice, it was the better rice I ate throughout the trip. The jerk chicken was good and I just think I might not be a fan of conch because of the tough parts it has.

Shark's is a must to dine at, be it breakfast or dinner they have so many great dishes. Shark is a joy to get to know and will bend over backwards to help you out. Me and my friends were staying across the street so we were able to spend lots of time enjoying things both on and off the... More

This is a small, simple restaurant where the food is out of this world. We stayed at Tensing Pen for a week and this restaurant is right across the street. We ate there three times. I had the pan fried snapper all three times because it is the best I have ever had in my life!! My husband had the... More

Kids and I had jerk chicken and that was very yummy. Love the coleslaw and rice and peas. Only wish we had found this place first - definetly... More

Prices are a little higher than other nearby places, and they were out of oxtails which was why we chose them. But the goat & conch curry were quite yummy, and service was excellent.

Stayed at Negril Escape quite near Shark's and it was recommended to me by the servers at the resort. Shark, Juliette and Smokey were excellent hosts; the food, beer and conversation were all great. The ambiance, charm and authenticity of Shark's Bar really encouraged me to explore other little establishments along the cliffs as well.

Took a taxi from Point Village. Taxi driver had no idea where to go but found it opposite Tensing Pen. Made a mistake and went in Stress Free Bar but was directed into Sharks. Seating for about 10 onan open verandah style. Very friendly and service was good. Excellent jerk chicken and curry conch. If we are on the cliffs... More

Wonderful local place with great Jamaican home cooking. Juliette is a wonderful cook, and the food is to die for!! We ate there several times, and the food, service and vibe were everything that we had hoped for and more. We are looking forward to our next visit and many more meals at Sharks. The Pan Fried Snapper and Jerk... More

We turned up at Sharks one night and it was empty, and we were the only people there for the duration of our meal. The food though was exactly what we were after - it was nicely spiced, and the curry conch was particularly good. We struggled in some of the west end restaurants to find food that felt like... More

Stayed in Negril for about a week, ate here at least five times during that week. Wonderful food, wonderful service. I recommend this to anyone who wants authentic Jamaican food. Only thing I did not like is that there was no bathroom in the establishment at the time I went.
