Good service and food with tables overlooking sea. Seems to be a very popular place for breakfast. Met Lilly who was a good host. I would not hesitate to recommend this place.

breakfast lunch or dinner is always perfect. The owner is usually close by or in the kitchen so the quality is very high. sometimes the staff are a little slow, but hey its bocas. perfect spot over the water.

ok, so service is slow, like most of the other places in the island. This was the first place we ever went to and it was nice: we had some fresh fruit and juices. Nice place to have breakfast. Watch out: toilets not clean at all.

Loved the setting and they have fans above all tables to keep flies and mozzies away! Went there 3 times in all, had a Jerk Chicken Sandwich, Chicken Curry and Fish Curry, ALL were totally amazeballs! Yolanda makes a great host too if you're lucky enough to have her serve you! Try their awesome home-made hot sauce 'Killing me man'.... More

This little cafe has just what you are looking for. It is a small restaurant situated over the water and extends no more than 150 feet into the ocean. It is a gorgeous spot.
