Coconut shrimp!!!
Jason C.

Great dining and late night drinking spot in the boardwalk! Sip on cool drinks or munch on great grub as you enjoy bay views in Christiansted. Stopped here for a cold drink and snacks but the service was impeccable! Thank you Eric for the food food and service, you are the reason we're want to come back for more!

Housemaid chips??? More like Tostitos.

I really wanted to like this place. The location is great! The menu looked promising ... had lunch here on a quiet Tuesday afternoon. Place wasn't busy. Tried to order fried seafood entree then told they were "out" of Mahi, so we asked for more shrimp, then the 2 sides I wanted were also "out". These things happen so I ordered something else. Food took a while but I was like "hey, we aren't in a rush". My entree was cold and super greasy. I had to ask for condiments. The attitude of the waitress was nice but I can tell she was super annoyed. The food was bland and didn't taste fresh at all. I got the mahi that I was told they were out of and wish I hadn't. Very overpriced for what I received. The only reason I am giving 2 stars is because of the location of the outdoor seating.

Seafood pasta with garlic cream sauce.
Joel W.

Great food, great service & great happy hour for half priced drinks. I had calamari and seafood pasta with garlic cream sauce and each was amazing! It's open-air on the Christiansted boardwalk on St. Croix... yes, in the Caribbean, so it's warm tropical breezes on the waterfront. I highly recommend!

Kate is such a great bartender. The best piña coladas on the island. All their drinks are mixed to perfection.

The family and I ate here years ago and I found on old receipt-realizing I never reviewed the place. So I just looked up the menu and the food choices have changed significantly. Years later, however I do still remember the meal and Wifey and I just talked about it. We actually really liked this place...stopped here for a late lunch after doing some shopping and sightseeing. According to the receipt, we ordered a pretty big meal for lunch (some of these aren't on the menu any longer): Shrimp pistolette, Mahi sandwich, Flank steak sandwich, and Fish and chips. We started with Chips and salsa and I had the Crawfish bisque and we also had a Parate, a local Virgin Islands Pale Ale and a virgin Strawberry daiquiri. I remember our waitress being super nice, but completely overwhelmed as the place was packed. We weren't in a hurry so a little slow service didn't bother us - plus she kept checking in on us. Food was great and I remember loving my meal AND the hot sauce they had on the table. Writing this makes me realize how much I need a vacation and want to go back to St. Croix. Ridiculous pricing. $94

Sprite with Guava juice
Rick C.

We found our way to Nate's after a search for Conch Fritters on Yelp. We started with those and some drinks. The fritters tasted more like hush puppies with a pinch of Conch. Could have used more Conch. The kids had Sprite with Guava juice and it was fantastic! Simple! I had the jerk chicken sandwich and my wife had a salad. My sandwich was just okay. I didn't taste the jerk seasonings. It was made well, just didn't have the kick I was expecting. My wife's salad had a lemon dill dressing made on request. I loved it! But she didn't. Everything added up fast. Family of four out the door for $126. Ouch, but we had a nice view and it was food.

Excellent service, Thank you William! Sunday Early Brunch, 8-10am Excellent food, thank you chef! Large 3egg omelette, marbled rye toast, delicious Irish butter and spicy green and pickled red onion. Nicely almost egg soaked French Toast with melon fruit. Right on the water front/board walk. Indoor and outdoor seating. Highly recommend for a peaceful morning breakfast.

The ambience where you're eating is quite Quaint and you are on The boardwalk where the boats and catamarans pick up for all the water activities, so eating next to it is quite a treat good for picture taking. Food wise is pretty basic with the breakfast they have a bar but mostly nothing special with the food. I ordered the breakfast burrito and it came in a regular tiny size wrap. At this time this was the only restaurant open for breakfast and it was her last day on the island.

Where do I even begin? This restaurant was just terrible. The whole time we were here my friends and I thought we were being punk'd. We get seated and after no one comes for a good 20 minutes, I went back inside and asked if someone could take our drinks. The guy I ask comes out with me and takes our drinks and ends up being our waiter. When we ask him about certain items on the menu, it seemed like he had no knowledge of them and was not very helpful at all. We finally order and it takes about 35 min. before our food comes. Right before that, the manager comes over and confirms what we ordered with us? I guess he didn't trust his staff enough to trust they wrote down the right thing and there were actually a few discrepancies with what he confirmed with us. Once we got our food, my shrimp tacos were literally in hard shells contrary to what the menu had said about them being on corn tortillas. When I bring this to the managers attention he says that they haven't had soft tortillas for awhile now. That would have been nice to know when I ordered the shrimp tacos originally. They were terrible and so bland and I was just so hungry that I eventually just ate the shrimp without the hard tacos shell. My friend got salmon that was extremely dry and not very good. My other friend got fish that was fried, not grilled like she had asked for so she returned it and didn't even order anything else because we were so fed up by this point. The manager came over and ended up taking 50% off our check which was nice but when my friend checked her bank account, she saw that it was the original price, so now she has to dispute the charge. This was all around just a terrible experience from the staff to the food and I would not recommend this place to anyone.

We had a table outside and watched the sea planes land. Food and service was great!

I don't even get the 3.5 Star rating! This place is great! And I'm a local! Great views, Great food, and their daily specials guarantee there's always something different from the static menu! Cocktails are great and very friendly service!

Bottomless mimosas and bloody Mary's with French toast and pancakes.  The best!!

It took a while for the hostess to come over to attend our reservation and help us get seated. Its a large and lively space with inside, outside and courtyard seating. Once seated inside, the server too took a while to attend to us. We ordered Mussels for appetizer and it was absolutely great. The broth was tasty and the mussels were delicious. I had the love potion and it was a very delicious drink. My husband didnt enjoy his old fashioned as much and mentioned it didnt have the required sweetness. For dinner we ordered salmon that came with mashed potatoes, cheese burger and plate of ribs. My son thought the burger was one of his favorite gourmet burgers ever. The salmon was well cooked and had a good crust but could have had a little more flavor to it. Feedback on ribs was that it was just okay. We had to be somewhere for an appointment after the dinner and thought that 90 mins was enough to finish dinner but the service was going a bit slow...we ordered few desserts to carry out and they were out of an item, which meant the process took a bit. It seemed like the server was trying to keep up but it was very busy and the space being so large meant she had to go a longer distance, so I sympathize with the time taken, but made us anxious. They also seem to have one restroom for that giant space and that was causing a lot of people to just wait in the hallway for what seemed forever, to use the restroom. Overall food is good but pricey, service could be improved and another restroom should definitely be figured out.

You have to past a gate guard, park, walk towards the office, cross a little bridge and take a little walk to get here. I had go call them to guide me in. Once you get here though, it is worth it. It has a nice set up with bar seating, an indoor dining area, and outdoor covered patio seating. It is a very low key spot that runs daily food specials. The staff there is very friendly. Even though the condos has a decent sized parking lot, I had difficulty finding a spot. I was able to get one though after someone had left. They have a full bar with televisions above it playing sports. The dining area overlooks the pool and the patio seating is along the condo's lake. It is very intimate and chill. Their menu is somewhat compact and includes pasta, steak, shrimp, fish, burgers and chicken. I ordered the the blackened salmon with mashed potatoes and a side of plantains. My meal also cam with a Caesar's salad and I got some lemonade to wash it all down. It took about 15 minutes. My salad was first. It was fresh and pretty good. The salmon was also delicious along with the potatoes. Come to think of it, the plantains were pretty good too. I really enjoyed my meal. I would just keep in mind though that drink refills are not free. I was not aware of that until after I got my bill. No biggie, I just wish I would have known before hand. Outside of that, my meal was thoroughly enjoyable and the atmosphere was amazing. I recommend checking this place out.
