Very good food and prices. Friendly attentive staff especially Eddie. Fun relaxed atmosphere with great regulars

Tank G.

I was in a time crunch and wanted to check this place out so I placed a to-go order over the phone. It was simple and easy. My order was ready when I got there. The parking lot was very dark, but I wasn't scurrrreed. After I got there, I wish I could have eaten there. the place was very nice. It was almost like a park. They have a bar area with a lot of seating. There is also lawn seating with covered picnic tables for you to eat. There is a stage, which a band was playing music on while I was there. And there are Adirondack chairs set up in front of the stage to watch and and enjoy the music while sipping on your drink of choice. Other Adirondack chairs and places around the property with small tables. The food actually comes from a food truck. And of course it does. You know why, because all good food comes from a food truck and this was no exception. The staff there was very friendly. Even though the food is prepared in a truck behind it. I picked my order up at the bar and the bartender could not have been nicer. I did find it weird though, that they add $1 to each item that you order to-go. I have never really seen that, but ohhh well. The restaurant's prices are still very completive and reasonable, even with that fee added on. I had ordered the Triple Threat Big Boy Burger (burger, bacon and pulled pork) with a side of potato salad. I will admit that the burger was a bit soggy because it to so long for me to get back to where I was staying, but it was phenomenal. It was very flavorful and juicy. I highly recommend it. The potato salad was pretty good too. My meal was very filling and I am glad that I was able to check this place out, be it to-go. This is one of your better barbecue joints on the island, bar none. You need to check it out.

Egg and bacon sandwich
Stuart R.

Jan.8,2023. Went for Sunday brunch and had a great time. They unexpectedly had live music a 10am which was a plus. This is an outdoor BBQ place on a hill past 5 points. A square bar with lots of seats and picnic tables with covers and umbrellas as well as a stage for bands. We ordered a bucket of mimosas (a bottle of champagne with choice of juices). Ginnie got biscuits and gravy and I got an egg sandwich. All was wonderful, we probably could have stayed all day! We will be back soon, Thursday are steak night and I heard they are great.

Chopped brisket sandwich and smoked wings.

I wanted to grab some BBQ while I was in St. Croix last month so I looked this place up, went there, and it was a great experience. This eatery/bar is on the side of the road. I parked my Jeep and grabbed a seat. The bartender was really cool and nice. I ordered a couple drinks, chopped brisket sandwich, and some of their smoked wings. The food came out super fast since it was already prepared and smoked. The brisket sandwich was awesome; piled high. The wings were awesome. The drinks were tasty. This was some of the best food I had on the island and I would definitely go back.

Very nice outdoor area.

Very nice outdoor bar and music area. Very relaxed environment with a very friendly staff. Food was great. People were very nice! Try it.

3 meat platter: brisket, ribs, pulled pork (all individually tailored sauces) macaroni salad, rice and beans, cornbread...  ALL DELICIOUS
Mave R.

Drove past this Gem of a spot a few times on our trip before being able to stop in, and boy do I wish we'd have stopped sooner.. Atmosphere was very relaxing and "chill" just like the beers. The food was nothing short of amazing, possibly the best meal we had on the island. Grabbed the 3 meat platter to split, I'm glad we did, there was so much food it was insane; and all of it delicious. The individual bbq sauces for each meat, took the great food and really put it over the top. Can't speak bad about anything we ordered, from the meats, to the corn bread, even the rice and beans had something extra that was a welcomed flavor. Great food, wish I had more days to come back again. Highly suggested if you on the fence ...

Chicken pot pie
Loan P.

I am on vacation. Stopped here Tuesday for dinner. Their specials ran out when we got there at 630pm & found out they closed at 7pm. Very friendly Eddy bartender-waiter took care of us. Their pulled pork sandwich was deliciously yummy. We came back again on Thursday for chicken pot pie, steak, more pulled pork sandwich & live music! This time we showed up at 4pm & stayed til 730pm. The live music singer was impressive. Then heard from a customer about their jalapeño Mac & cheese. I was too stuffed to order. Will have to come back for this. Had a wonderful time hanging out here! Highly recommend. I Want to post more photo but Yelp is not letting me. So go check it out for yourself

Amazing BBQ, Outside, casual, live music, friendly people and great drinks. We were in St Croix for 2 weeks and the only regret was we didn't try this place sooner! We actually went 2 nights in a row; the food was that good! Owners were so friendly too!

This is a late night food joint. It is a trailer that is located inside of a gas station parking…read morelot. However, do not fear, it will always be there. It has no tires and is on blocks. They have a small seating area with picnic tables and an awning over it where you can eat. They also have a port a potty right next to it. You will find Jamaican music bumping throughout the parking lot. They really had the party going. There was an MC working the mic too. Being co-located at a gas station there is an adequate amount of parking available. This place is open way more than closed. They are open until 2AM most nights and opens back up at 7AM for breakfast. They have a variety of food options, including fish, burgers, wings, tacos, subs, fish, omelets, ox tail, ribs and wraps, just to name a few. They are reasonably priced. I found it funny that they had a sign on the trailer that said no mask, no service, but none of the workers had on a mask. SO, obviously they were not enforcing the sign. You place your order at the trailer and then go pay for it in the gas station....I know...Its weird. After you pay, you take your proof of payment back to the trailer and they get going on your order. I ordered the sweet and spicy barbecue wings with a side of fries. It took about 20 minutes to get my food, which on this island is not too bad. It was a ton of food. Very filling. I must say that the wings were some of the best that I have ever had. They were flavorful and juicy and had a little kick to them, just like I like it. But they were not too hot. The fries were good too. This is one of the few places that I can honestly say was worth the wait. The food was delicious. I highly recommend checking this place out. Don't be scared by it being a trailer in a gas station parking lot. It is a hidden gem and I am surprised that I am the first to review it. They have some really good food (with a wide selection) and at reasonable prices. I recom end checking this place out.

Excellent homemade burger with a grill toasted bun with all the fixings. For 16 USD you get a…read moreburger and fries that you can make a solid two meals out of. You order at the counter, take it inside to pay, then bring the receipt out to the ladies and they will cook it up. They have some outside seating under a tarp canopy to keep you out of the sum. Open late night and they have a port a potty for a bathroom. The great thing is that you can go inside the gas station and get a beer or Seagrams to go with your burger. Great late night spot!!!

This was a WOW dinner and I will absolutely go back. It's an easy walk from the Cane bay beach…read more Follow the signs, and then go down the narrow stairs to the restaurant (we almost missed them; see the photos.) We chose a sunset seating and the pictures are unreal. one of the most beautiful restaurant views because the water is right there- if you sit on the lower patio you might get sprayed a little! I asked for a creamy espresso martini and the bartender got it perfect- I ordered two! The other cocktails were good as well. The hot crab dip was amazing! I loved that the pumpkin pasts wasn't overwhelmingly pumpkin- it was just perfectly balanced. All of the vegetables and sauces on the Buddha's feast were delicious, but since it was just vegetables, I wish there had been more volume because event after sharing an app I was still hungry. We got the rum cake for desert, and we LOVE rum cake. However, if you had told me this was just chocolate cake, I would have believed it. It needed much more rum/syrup! Still a great meal in a fantastic setting, and we will be going back!

The location could not have been better. It was stunning. As the evening progressed the waves got…read morehigher and more fearsome. But we were in a key protected area and just enjoyed the view. The food. MEH. I love carpaccio but this was underwhelming and didn't have enough acidity to balance the plate. I ordered the lobster pasta. Wow -what a disappointment. The lobster was over cooked and chewy. The sauce (bisque) was flavorless and needed salt and a bit of heavy cream badly. The pasta was way past al dente. Had to ask for bread- was told "had to see if they had enough for a side of bread." Ran out of risotto for a 730 pm reservation. Offered two specials but I had to ask the price. (Pet peeve--tell me the special price). And then the server wasn't sure and had to go ask. Go only for the location and view --not the food. The mocktails were both delicious. Points for having a mocktail list!
