Rum Runners Review

This casual waterfront restaurant has a breezy yet intimate feel and sits above the tranquil water (which is inhabited by a school of enormous tarpon attracted by the lure of leftovers). The pizza is said to be the best on the island. For starters, try the calamari or beef yakitori. Seafood lovers should sample the shrimp and scallop skewers served with beurre blanc. The filet mignon with a red-wine sauce has strong nutmeg overtones and gets rave reviews from carnivores. Save room for the heavenly fiesta de frutas: Bavaros crème topped with strawberry coulis, bathed in a melon soup and garnished with a fresh fruit kabob. It sounds weird but is a fruit lover's delight.

About Our System

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.
