The view looks great, but your car will have to work for it. The drive up to this Hull Bay haven if full of harrowing hairpin turns. Then again, it's pretty worth it to experience the island's only brewery. The food was just okay, but the presentation was nice, and the view was lovely, even in the dark. The Bruschetta... More

This used to be my most favorite restaurant on St. Thomas. However, upon returning recently it was still good, though not quite the same. Service was quite slow for how empty the restaurant was. My formerly favorite dish (lobster thermidor) was soupy. Overall, it is still a nice experience sitting out on the porch, listening to the live piano music.... More

This place is so fun!!! They have a jazz band that plays every Saturday night and it was such a treat. Service went above and beyond. Food was delicious. (I had their local caught fish of the day. Their chef, who is also a fisherman catches the fish in the morning, and then prepares it at night. How cool is... More

A favorite, we visit this restaurant at least a couple of times a month. We had a chance to bring some family there recently, and we were extremely disappointed. When we were finally waited on (25 minutes to place our order, which took three trips to the table to accomplish), we ordered an appetizer for the table, and two of... More

Staff at the Morning Star suggested the Northside Bistro to use while down on the island in February. It is a little out of the way on the northside, but we really enjoyed it. Great view of the offshore islands and bay from the hillside. Food was excellent and service was great. Had the ribs and they were delicious. Live... More

We were finishing the Tree Limin Zipline tour and I asked one of the guides if there was a good place to eat nearby. He gave us this recommendation. He told us it was a casual local place. It was so much more. They have an extensive wine cellar and he even a small brewery on site. The ambience was... More

We went to this restaurant for Valentine's Day with all intentions of having an awesome experience, however we were sorely disappointed. First, no mention was made when we were making reservations that a set menu would be set for Valentine's Day. We were not allowed to order from the regular menu. Disappoinment #1. And that would have been ok, IF... More

We had a spectacular dinner here after a day of riding the nearby Ziplines, and quickly fell in love with this unassuming, out-of-the-way gem near Hull Bay. The service was excellent, the food fantastic, and the view amazing. Where else can you watch surfers coming in at sunset from atop a mountain while enjoying great cocktails, and extensive wine list,... More
