Frommer's Review
Antiguan hospitality, a finely honed cuisine, and a laid-back atmosphere cause a never-ending stream of foodies to head to the home of owner Philip George-John. In his restored Georgian family manse, the host will feed you well. Many of the daily specials are based on long-standing Antiguan recipes. The ingredients are fresh, and everything is prepared with loving care. The best time for an authentic experience is on Saturday, when island specialties are served, including "goat water," souse, "conch water," and pepperpot stew. To finish off, try the creamy rice pudding. Antiguans take their ribs seriously and George-John prepares the best on island. The ribs are slow roasted with a caramelized passion-fruit and pineapple glaze.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
