    Shirt rub mash potatoes and lobster tail.
    Yanira V.

    So let's start off by saying it's a very nice restaurant with out door seating and just nice ambiance, service was good very attentive and helpful and fast. Lobster dumplings were amazing the sauce we devoured it all by dipping our biscuits that were also yummy I could've had 2 orders of those and the amazing Brussels and enjoyed my bday dinner we got surf and turf which was good also and husband got steak too which was also good but the stars fir me were those brussel sprouts and the dumplings loved loved loved them. Would recommend would definitely go back.

    I came here on a vacation with a group of 8 people and had an amazing time! We made reservations about two weeks before hand and got a table outside with a gorgeous view of the harbor! The service throughout dinner was attentive and I thought the staff was very knowledgeable about the menu. I started out with the rosa tequila cocktail and thought it was refreshing and not too sweet! For appetizers the star was the lobster dumplings! They served biscuits with it that were perfect for enjoying the delicious sauce left over on the plate! For main courses I tried the swordfish, cod and a side of Brussels sprouts. All were delicious but the swordfish was my favorite. It was served over a bed of buttered greens and fresh tomatoes that was perfect! I would definitely recommend coming here! They can accommodate small, family and large group dinning with high quality food and gorgeous views One thing to be aware of is that they do charge for the water they serve! It wasn't too expensive but I was not expecting it

    Pretty decent food. It was a pleasant night when we dined here so we had our food outside on their patio. While we enjoyed the experience, nothing we had here was overly special. But all-in-all their food was tasty. I think the best dish we had here was the fish. It was fresh and perfectly cooked, if not a bit less substantial than expected based on the price. Everything else was par for the course. Overall, this one you should check out if you're in the area. Otherwise, no biggie.

    4.5 stars! We picked an outdoor table for date night. Appetizer: lobster dumplings- great sauce and texture for dumpling wrapper. I wish each dumpling was bigger for the price. Entrées: scallops- no pepper and a bit on the saltier side and the yellow pepper sauce could use more flavor. I asked for pepper, a side of butter and lemon wedges and it made all the difference. Asparagus was perfectly cooked. Ribeye- cooked and broiled perfectly to medium and gravy was flavorful and yummy. Drinks: painkiller and blueberry skies. Strong and great flavors for both drinks! Would order both again! Apparently they make their drinks strong in the island:D Dessert: chocolate tarte with candied pecans: rich and chocolaty, so good! Enough to share. A bit of time taken before our order was taken but once it was taken it was a good pace from the drinks to the entrees. Beautiful of view of the marina and boats even at nighttime.

    It was a challenge to find the restaurant. (TIP: It is best to map to "Hook'd" and go upstairs--3 Palms is immediately above Hook'd.) While meandering lost on the island we called for directions and to let them know about our status. We got a recording but moments later we received a call back and a text (very nice touch). We had a reservation for outdoor seating and sat overlooking the marina at American Yacht Harbor. We enjoyed the soft evening breeze in soaking in casual yet elegant vibe. Service was warm, friendly, and attentive. We opted for cocktails rather than wine and our drinks were quite delicious and beautifully garnished. Dinner started with the lobster dumplings which were sublime. Warm biscuits (crisp and buttery on the outside and soft on the inside) came out shortly afterwards. We were able to dip them in the velvety sauce that accompanied our dumplings. To be honest, they were so good on their own, we opted to savor much of our biscuits without sauce. We opted for grouper, snapper, and chicken entrees. All were outstanding and most notable was the Grouper Ponchartrain sautéed in a lemon butter sauce with giant lumps of crabmeat adorning it. We topped it all off with a chocolate tart with raspberries--a perfect conclusion to a great meal. We are grateful to the chef and staff who made our meal memorable.

    Thai fish soup

    WORST service I've received at any restaurant in a longgg time...and no they were not busy! Our server was sitting socializing with her other table majority of our time here. We weren't asked how the appetizer was or if we needed anything (would've loved lemon). A second drink took over 25mins to get. Had to get up and find her to ask to order main entrees. I'm currently pregnant and can't eat spicy without horrible heartburn. She advised the Thai soup wasn't spicy because they can make it without peppers so I did. (I typically love spicy), but this soups was INCREDIBLE spicy even without the peppers. It was almost inedible even for my boyfriend who loves spice too (hotter than medium at a typical thai restaurant). I woke up all night from heartburn from eating one bite. I had to switch meals with my boyfriend otherwise I wouldn't have been able to eat since she NEVER came back again for me to order something else. From the time we ASKED her to take our order, the only other time she came to our table was to bring the bill AFTER we finished and had to ask the bus girl to ask her to bring our bill. Mind you she only had 2 other tables (1 which finished well before us). Such a shame this was our last night on the island and so disappointing especially when their prices are pretty high. We would've ordered more and she would've received quite a large tip if she ever came to our table...

    Lobster dumplings

    3 Palms is by far the best restaurant we ate at the entire week we were in St. Thomas and St. John. We were traveling for our honeymoon and ate at several fancy restaurants on both islands (all which were fabulous), but 3 Palms was the one restaurant we would travel back for just to eat there. We only heard about the restaurant because a bartender on Saint John recommended it to us. We were a little worried at first, because not a lot of people on the island seem to know about it and we couldn't find it on the map. It's really a hidden gem on the water and Red Hook. We shared the octopus appetizer, which was perfectly cooked. My husband got the pumpkin and squash soup which was absolutely fabulous. We also shared the lobster dumplings, which are an absolute must. These are a staple on their menu and you must try them while you're here. The dumpling sauce was so good we slopped all of it up with the biscuits! My husband ordered the mahi and I ordered the snapper. Both were delicious and the snapper had a wonderful crispy outside. We are so glad we listened to the recommendation and will definitely be coming back!

    We stoped only to have a cocktail on our last night in St. Thomas. The moment we got there they were pretty busy, but our bartender was super quick and handled the situation. Cocktails were good! Didn't try the food tough. Nice design.

OMG-They're the bomb! Wings are decent and the burgers are juicy, flavorful and delicious! You really can't go wrong with ANYTHING on the menu. Everything is made fresh to order. The decor is island themed chaos in every fun way possible. If you happen to have to use the restroom it's located outside (customs ONLY) The key ring they'll hand you is a toilet lid! LOL You can ring in another way too! On your trip to the john, call in sick to work and stay on the island! You're enticed too by the retro phone sitting a top a keg outdoors as well. Great photo opts! Happy Hour is daily! The Love Shack offers particular deals with half-priced cocktails. We did Margs on Monday! Signature drinks include the 50oz Volcano Drink, Shark Attack, and souvenir cocktails like the Pirates Booty in a ceramic mugs. FYI- They may attach a certain creature to your glass also.

It took a good half hour for the food to be delivered but when we got it, it was hot and cooked to our specs. Fries were crispy. Burger was thick with a nice crisp, almost tasted like a smash burger but thicker. Service was good. It was the one spot where we didn't have to pay for a refill of soda. They were playing the best music! No waitlist or host so you have to linger and wait for someone to leave if you need a table and they are full. Great stop.
