This café is a hidden French gem on Old Street in Philipsburg. It's small but welcoming. The owner…read morewas very accommodating in seating us at a table with a cool breeze. It was a hot day in Sint Maarten. Especially after walking about 3 miles on a sightseeing exploration around Great Bay Beach. It was time for lunch and the reviews looked promising. We ordered 2 baguette sandwiches. I'd read that they were very good here. The Google reviews were correct. The ham & cheese was delicious. The baguette was amazingly fresh. I wish I could have brought the rest back with me to the ship. It was a very large portion. Who said the French give small portions? Definitely not here. Half of my husband's chicken sandwich was gone before I could even take a picture of it. He said it was very tasty. I thought about getting some coffee after hearing one of his regular customers comment that it's the best in the area. We just didn't want to get overheated again. The service was great! We received our sandwiches in a good amount of time. The owner was very hospitable and kind. It's in one of the colorful houses that you see on Old Street. The scenery in this breezy passageway is very charming and full of bright colors. I'd return again whenever in Philipsburg.

The steak that was prepared well done was impeccable and well worth the wait. The drinks were refreshing. I don't worry about them being boring. The bartender looked well versed in his craft. Our server was new, and definitely recommended great appetizers to pair with our entrees. Only thing I wish of the place is that they took the full amount of the tab. It had to be split into 5 different payments for our bill.

As I stated before the waiters and servers were top notch. With that said, the kitchen was the issue. My wife ordered a lobster bisque or should I say a soup. To add insult to injury, there was literally one chunk of lobster that was almost half inch in size. The family did enjoy the bread, but the main meals had several misses that caused this restaurant to be a two star. I will start with my wife who had the lasagna. She said it was really good and could have been a dish from Italy (We were there last December). My daughter had the gnocchi and a side of meatballs. She stated the gnocchi was bland, but the meatballs were good. My son, started as a couple failures. First he ordered a beef tenderloin fillet. After being told that they were out he ordered the New York strip medium rare. When the food finally made it to the table it was rare. After sending it back the second one was cooked better. However the steak you could taste the rosemary, but was still no salt. Once adding salt to the steak it tasted good. He ordered a side of pasta which he really enjoyed. Finally, my order, I ordered the whole lobster. To start, the size of this lobster for $79 was a joke and if the lobster was good, I would have felt better! Not having a Caribbean Lobster before I was not sure how it was supposed to be and I wished I would have asked when I took my first bite. The lobster was supposed to be a grilled item. I was so looking forward to this lobster to be TOTALLY disappointed! The lobster was actually over cooked. I only found out after I was leaving because I asked how the consistency was supposed to be. If you only care about scenery and pasta this is the place for you! Anything else, there are a lot of options in the area to choose from.

Their ribs were the best we tried on the island. The oxtail was the best we tried on the island. I fell in love with the curry goat roti. It tasted like it came straight from Trinidad. I wiped my plate clean and wished I had taken a picture. I ordered the drink special and swapped the tequila for rum. Diane, the bartender, made it sweet and smooth with coconut cream. It was so good I am naming it the Ashley. If you like coconut and sweet drinks, you will enjoy it. Our waitress Joe and Connor took great care of us. The service matched the food. The ribs were so tender the bone slid right out. My boyfriend and I split them as an appetizer and cleaned the bones. The cheesecake was also delicious. Every single thing we ate here was amazing. I would recommend this place. We are coming back. I want the curry shrimp next time and my boyfriend plans to get the curry goat again.
