Frommer's Review

Perched high above a steep and heavily forested hillside on the eastern tip of St. Thomas, this is one of the island's best restaurants. Order the house drink, Desmond Delight, a combination of Midori, rum, pineapple juice, and a secret ingredient, and enjoy your lovely view and unparalleled romantic atmosphere. After a few Delights, try the house appetizer, which includes portions of crabmeat, conch fritters, and a shrimp cocktail. The catch of the day features three different fish, which can be prepared in seven different ways, with a choice of nine sauces. Some of our favorite meals here include the chef's jerk chicken, and Coral Bay crab cakes served with island rémoulade. There is also an extensive wine list. A live steel-drum band draws listeners on Tuesday and Thursday nights.

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.
