Lorenzillo's

Frommer's Review

Live lobster is the overwhelming favorite, and part of the appeal is selecting your dinner out of the giant lobster tank set in the lagoon (Lorenzillo's sits right on the lagoon under a giant palapa roof). A dock leads down to the main dining area, and when that's packed (which is often), a wharf-side bar handles the overflow. In addition to lobster -- which comes grilled, steamed, or stuffed -- good bets are shrimp stuffed with cheese and wrapped in bacon, the Pescador (Caribbean grouper prepared to taste), and seafood-stuffed calamari. Desserts include the tempting "Martinique": warm apples, raisins, and walnuts caramelized with rum and wrapped in a pastry with vanilla ice cream. The sunset pier offers a lighter menu of cold seafood, sandwiches, and salads. There's a festive, friendly atmosphere, and children are very welcome -- after all, most of the patrons are wearing bibs!
