Anna Bananas Review

Architecturally, the building that contains this open-air seafront restaurant features little more than a wooden deck with a soaring roof. There aren't even any walls to prevent storms or rain from penetrating the inside, but in light of how relaxed the place is, most clients don't seem to care. Painted a bright shade of yellow and named after the childhood nickname of the owners' daughter (who hated bananas), it was established in the late 1990s by a consortium of Texan and Jamaican entrepreneurs. By the mid-2000s, all vestiges of the original Texans had vanished, leaving the place a purely Jamaican venue. Menu items, as described on a chalkboard, include cheese sandwiches, tender savory oxtail, fried fish or chicken, BLT sandwiches with avocado, and platters of zesty jerk chicken and pork (on weekends). Drinks are wide-ranging and frothy.

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.
