Great casual little outdoor restaurant on the water near Birras Creek. Also right next door to their gift shop for souvenir shopping. Our party enjoyed fish sandwiches and burgers. Like most things in the islands, nothing is rushed. Order a cocktail (or a cold beer), sit back and relax while you wait for them to freshly grill up your meal!

Every time I go to the Fat Virgin I am always thrilled. The Chicken Roti is the BEST on the island, if you ask me. The place is truly delightful, warm, welcoming, and always perfect!

This place is too much fun - casual, friendly service and great eats. Our niece told us about it said to be sure to have Esther's ribs...fall off the bone tender with an amazing guava bbq sauce. Homemade potato salad with a no mayo dressing, cold beers and great rum punch and the best logo on the island ;-)

My favorite place for a tasty and casual meal made to order. Everything arrives by boat, including you! A really great alternative in the corner of North Sound. If you come this way on a boat or are staying in a villa nearby, you owe it to yourself to at least come look at the menu in person. Sit down... More

Nice change of pace from the fancy restaurants. Ate lunch here two days and enjoyed the grouper sandwich. Very clean and tidy with good service.

This place was recommended to us by the dive crew at Bitter End, and we have been back a number of times. Laid back setting on the waterfront in a quiet part of the bay. A great local feel - a world apart from some of the resort-type restaurants nearby. If you like roti, you'll love this one! My husband... More

Always fresh fish..... Often Wahoo.. The home made chips/fries are great and the chocolate flourless cake to die for.

We stopped here to wait out an approaching rainstorm! The food was great and they kept the BBQ going though the storm. The Roti was good, both the veggie one and the chicken roti. They do a good rum punch! Prices as elsewhere for VG but good quality food in a lovely setting on North Sound. You can catch the... More

After a good day out sailing, it was nice to sit and enjoy the view and the food... You have to try this location!
