Le Dôme ReviewSet on the top (eighth) floor of a hotel in the Valmenière district, midway between Fort-de-France's commercial center and the airport -- and far from the neighborhoods and haunts visited by tourists -- this place caters almost exclusively to business travelers, many from the French mainland. Outfitted with a contemporary decor and hues of red, it boasts large bay windows, through which diners enjoy a view that sweeps along the island's coastline. Menu items blend traditional French cuisine with Antillean ingredients, sometimes in very creative ways. The best examples include a cream of christophene (Caribbean squash) soup with crayfish; ground rack of lamb served with a sauce made from cocoa powder and red wine; seawolf with coconut sauce; filet of John Dory with yellow bananas and anise; and braised breast of duckling served with a sauce based on Caribbean cherries.

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.
