Normally i would never pay $22 for basic cheese pizza but nothing on the menu really spoke to me and i was starving. Just needed to eat. The service was fast and they come out with the pizza quick. Didn't have to wait long. The pizza was nice and crispy, i really really liked the sauce. It tasted freshly made. They very heavy handed with the cheese though. I wish i told them light cheese. Ended up taking half the cheese off while eating. It was good and perfect of when you just need to eat comfort food after a long day at the beach. read more

Isla Blue - Cheese pizza - Bars Near Me - Charlotte Amalie, Virgin Islands

Had a really nice dinner at Isla Blue. The atmosphere is beautiful, especially if you're sitting near the water. It is upscale and is a great spot for a sunset dinner. The Tuna Ceviche ($24) was fresh and bright with citrus flavors. The Tuna Poke ($28) was beautifully presented and flavorful. Both were light but satisfying appetizers. For the main course we ordered the Paella ($42). The dish came loaded with mussels and shrimp and chicken and rice. It had a nice balance of flavors. To drink, I had the Golden Hour cocktail ($16), which was light and refreshing as well. Service was smooth and attentive throughout the evening. One thing to note is that a 20% gratuity is automatically added. Overall, the food was fresh, the presentation was beautiful, and the ambiance made the experience even better. If you're looking for a nice dinner spot in St. Thomas with beautiful views this is definitely worth checking out. read more

The pizza was pretty good and the margarita was really good. The drinks are expensive but they have a two for one happy hour. The best part was our server Kelly! She was great and so friendly! read more

Super underwhelming and disappointing. The reason for two stars is the ambience was good with open air seating and a pretty dining area with high ceilings. This was unfortunately our least favorite meal during our time spent on the resort and by far the most expensive (which we expected but hoped the experience would match the price). For drinks we ordered one still water and one sparkling water along with a cocktail. For the waters we expected to pay for the sparkling water but the waitress (without informing us) brought out two glass bottles of Acqua Panna water (one still, one sparkling) that ended up costing us $10 and $12. Since when is a restaurant charging $10 for still water... for appetizers we ordered langosta taquitos and the bonita roll. Taquitos were fine but nothing to write home about. The Bonita roll I actually enjoyed and was probably my favorite part of the whole meal. For entrees we ordered the filet mignon and the lobster and then manchego cassava mash on the side (not pictured). The filet and lobster were fine but nothing special (and when you're paying fine dining prices you expect special - $150 for an entree with no sides). The cassava was not good and terribly under seasoned. To top it all off our waitress had a weird attitude. I can only describe it as a snooty "I'm better than you" type of attitude. We had an early reservation (5pm) and there were no other patrons in the restaurant for the first 30 or so minutes we were there and even after it never really got busy and yet we were rushed to order and then looked down upon when we didn't want dessert - just felt odd. Needless to say, would not recommend. 2 stars is honestly generous, but again added a star for the ambience. read more

Dissatisfied and disappointed. Expensive yet the food was hit and miss. Temperature in the restaurant was uncomfortable and some standard alcohol such as Grey Goose was not available. read more

Although our server, Tammy, was very nice and not over attentive, the food left something to be desired. The New York Strip was under seasoned, lots of fat and tough and cost $78 for a 20 oz steak. There is no way that steak was 20 oz. We also had the fish special of the night, which was swordfish. It was okay. A grey goose martini will set you back $27 each and if you order blue cheese stuffed olives, those are $1 each. One olive still had the pit in it and the other olive had nothing in it.... But it was $1 anyway. The restaurant itself is beautiful and has a great view with the sound of calm waves lapping at the shore. Two of us walked out of there and the bill I was $367. Oh, and you pay for drinking water without knowing that the bottle cost is $12. Our server did not mention that. No bread was served with our meal, which I found to be odd. Will I go back next time I'm in St. Thomas? Nope. Go to Tap and Still for a good burger and cold beer for $20, including tip. read more

The food was really good and my server was Chris and he was accommodating and very sweet. I would definitely return! read more

The service was excellent, the server was very attentive and friendly. The ambiance was very pleasant and relaxing. The food was horrible. I ordered the vegetarian option which was a stuffed pepper and rice. My food was cold. I tried not to complain but I wanted my food hot so the server too it to the back and warmed it up. Someone else in my party her food had to be warmed up as well. My brother's lobster was different textures he couldn't eat it. He ordered a steak and asked for well done. The server waited for him to try it out and make sure it was well done. The center was well done but as he continued to eat it became rare. We didn't complain just accepted it for what it was. I will not be returning. read more

Gorgeous place! The decor and location on the water is perfect! I had a Mahi special that was good, but overpriced. The coconut cake was terrible, very dry like a shortcake biscuit. The wine was good! We would go back for the ambience! read more

A beautiful open air restaurant located at the Morningstar Buoy House Hotel. A really nice menu where Mediterranean meets Caribbean. Plenty of great fish selections with some nice meat additions as well. We went with the Wagyu Steak with chimichurri sauce and it was outstanding. Great cocktails and a really solid well priced wine list. read more

Incredible ambiance and view - oceanfront and perfect for a romantic date night or fancy occasion. The service was lovely and attentive, and overall the vibes were great (just can't beat the views and location!). Our server was Molly and she was so kind, friendly and attentiv, and she gave us great recommendations for both food and drinks! Highly suggest the Manchego chicken and steak dishes - seasoned and cooked perfectly! Also don't skip on dessert- we had the donut holes (made to order- yum!!!) served with horchata dipping sauce and Mexican chocolate ice cream delicious! All in all, a wonderful spot and worth the visit! Ask for Molly, she's the best! read more

Hate to say it, but the food at Isla Blue missed the mark in too many ways. We came specifically for the grouper--the dish they had been advertising for months--but were told it wasn't available. What made that even more frustrating is that we were the *first* guests in the restaurant that evening, so it's not like they sold out. It simply wasn't there. We ordered the seafood platter instead. The ceviche was overwhelmingly filled with canned pineapple--seriously? That was the main flavor- only flavor. Then came a couple of shrimp... after waiting 45 minutes. And this was cold seafood. With the grouper off the table, we tried the oxtail. One of the four pieces was *just* a bone--the size of the side of my pinky (I have photos). I bit into it thinking it was part of a plantain chip, and it hurt my teeth. A serious oversight from the kitchen. Again- covered in pineapple... why???...obsession? To top it off, nearly everything we ordered tasted the same. The corn side dish, for example, seemed to just have oxtail grease poured over it (we took it home- and sure enough solidified). No real flavor variation. For a menu that reads well, the execution was a letdown. I'm a former fine dining chef and restaurateur. To walk away hungry--after spending almost $400--is unacceptable. We live here, and as my husband said: we're not coming back. That's not good news for any place hoping to build loyalty in the local community. The drain fly issue made an already disappointing experience even worse. Please, address this properly--those were clearly drain flies, and having them land on our food and faces during Christmas dinner was honestly disgusting. Placing traps inside the ceiling lights so guests sit directly beneath hundreds of dead flies? Unacceptable. You're a Buoy restaurant--hire a proper pest control service and get this taken care of. It got to the point where my husband was wiping flies off my face every 15 seconds - nothing like giving chistmas love language and flies in your hair. We almost walked out. read more

Isla Blue - Caribbean Lobster - Bars Near Me - Charlotte Amalie, Virgin Islands

I really wanted to love the place. It's gorgeous. The location is perfect. I had to order at the bar when everyone else had a server. Was assured we had a server- but they never came. Had to go back to the bar for my check. I hate giving zero tip but damn- this was all you. Your service lacks luster. Is it because I'm Mexican? Here's a tip-Your coco ceviche needs more flavor and the limp flatbread was whack. read more

Took myself out to dinner at Isla blue for my birthday 12/11/25. The food and drink were really good. The salad was amazing to start with. For dessert I had cheese cake with coquito drizzle on top, so good. The waitress was really nice and energetic. Also the music was nice, good vibes. I would definitely return the next time I visit St. Thomas. read more

Ate here the first night we arrived, the atmosphere is lovely, very romantic vibe. My Caribbean lobster was good. It was my birthday so they also brought out a complimentary dessert and some killer bee shots which was nice. Would come back. read more

We love the Buoy Haus and have stayed there twice. Last time, they pushed Isla Blue so this time I made a reservation. It is terribly convenient and the room is gorgeous; high ceilings and fans, open on all sides, and the water licking at the building foundation. But the food and service do not match the prices. I ordered a mojito and the waitress brought a special blueberry mojito which I sent back. When the correct drink came, I am pretty sure it was just limeade with some mint leaves -- no alcohol detected. We had a salad which was like eating grass, with tough leaves and no discernable flavor. I had a halibut special which was fine, not great and my side of rice came pretty much as a finished my main course. My wife had mahi which was also ok. The highlight was the cheesy mashed taro side that my wife had. The aspirations definitely do not match the experience. Next time I will get a burger at the Salt Shack. read more

Food and views were everything you could ask for. Great vibes as well and if you're staying at the buoy haus, you don't need to travel far to have an excellent experience read more

One of the restaurants at the Westin/Bouy Haus....probably the most expensive. Restaurant was fancy-ish and i bet has a great very during the daylight. While we probably could and maybe should have dressed up more we didn't since it was our last night, we were tired and had packed most of our clothes. Thankfully we were not turned away. Our sever was very nice and bubbly. She told us the specials and made us aware of items they had run out of. Neither of us were super hungry and my friend just got dessert. I ended up getting an appetizer with scallops that were fresh and cooked well. I got a side of the cassava mash since it was unique. It was a large portion and I enjoyed it. They had a few other sides that sounded good that I would have considered if I had been more hungry. I did have room for dessert and got the churro donuts after overhearing someone talk about them the night before. Nice and "crispy" on the outside and soft on the inside. Great dessert for sharing. read more

Don't waste your time or money! We were so happy to have reservations here and looking forward to an amazing dinner. We were disappointed to say the least. To begin with the menu is a disaster. They say the chef claims to present a fusion of Japanese and Mexican, yes that's right, that is what they said. The flavors do not go together at all which was evident in the food we ordered. Additionally, the fish was overcooked to something of a belt leather texture. The small filet was prepared to the right temperature, but had a seasoning that did not complement beef. In addition, they have an inflated view of their appeal. Everything on the menu is greatly overpriced for what you get. The service was OK. The ambience was OK. Nothing was great and we do not recommend this restaurant. We have eaten in many fine dining establishments across the world and this was a great disappointment. read more

Lobster was bland, broccolini was plentiful. They do not have bread at all for fine dining that is BAD. My husband had special it was wahoo it was the worst fish he ever has had. No flavor. The sauce was terrible it was like a poorly made gravvy (white). All over priced. Service waiter was fine but the bussers had no personality , yes no answers , no human connection at all. No smile almost well high. The app for making reservation sends you to salt shack. Maybe that is intentional? Would I go back? No (h...no). Would I tell my friends or enemies ? No. Location very pretty , sunset is spectacular from there. They need a new french chef! Add a bit of flavor to food, please. Not worth the price. read more

Awesome. Chara was excellent Server, as well as travel advisor, she felt like a friend by the end of the meal. The food and drinks were fantastic read more

The food and the staff. Hurried, uncaring, food was horrible. Expected better for sure. Disappointing birthday dinner having such high hopes. Wahu was very cooked, sent back and the mybsemt it back cold in the middle. It was as if they were upset that we sent the first one back read more

We only came for dessert just saying. We got the donut holes and the key lime pie they were both really good. The service was really good and are waitress was very friendly. The ambiance was great we were in the second level with a view of the ocean. I would recommend. 4 stars read more

Best food on island! Hands down. The service was great and the ambiance of this restaurant is incredible. Spectacular views!!

Nice location. Open air; ocean below. Karen was an attentive server. Sounds nice, right? But, the food was overpriced and just not that good. I had the mahi mahi and it was crusted in rock salt. Bleh. I asked Karen about it. She talked to the chef who said he used ground pepper to season it. Maybe there was a mixup in the kitchen. The restaurant should install ceiling fans. It was a warm night and the air was quite still. read more

Went to all the high end restaurants while on the island with a group of 17 - this one was by far my favorite! location is beautiful. Ambiance. Lighting. Dishes. Style. Everything was spot on. We had a pre set menu. As soon as we got in they had appetizers on the table. They were delicious. We did the chicken dish / a lot of people's favorite. Prawn was so good. Ribeye was so good. My all time favorite was the Caribbean lobster / by far the best lobster I have ever eaten in my life. I usually am not a fan of lobster bc it's chewy. This was so buttery and soft and delicious. I could have just had lobster! All the sides were delicious too. Desserts were amazing the dairy free coconut sorbet was so fresh and delicious. Besides the food being top notch and delicious this was the ONLY restaurant we went to the entire time that had friendly, personal and connecting servers. Everyone was so nice here! Would love to go back!! Loved it so much I didn't have time for pics. Too busy eating! read more

Ambiance was great, service was good, but the food was straight up bad. Maybe we caught a bad day. Mahi mahi was $42 for something that tasted worse than what I make at home (and I'm not what most would consider a good cook) and the sides we had lacked any flavor. Would definitely eat at any other restaurant at Buoy Haus / Westin before returning here read more

This place is phenomenal. The view, the ambiance, the staff, the FOOD! Everything was amazing. Our event went without a hitch and the event staff did an amazing job catering to my group who traveled from near and far. They thought of everything and had everything planned out so all I had to do the day of the event with my guests was just to show up. The rest, they had all figured out. Thanks so much! I will be back read more

Fantastic service. Chef came out to assure us our allergies would be accommodated. Food was 10/10. Filet, Wahoo, tacos, scallops, lime in the coconut. read more
