    Island vibes
    Roy B.

    We had a very nice lunch in between visits to the beach and had excellent service as well. There are so many good choices on the menu for seafood lovers and also some things to keep the kiddos happy as well. If you're a fan a ceviche, the plate will not let you down and you'll be looking for more of the flatbread that gets served with it. Lobster wraps were good but not the star of our meal. Certainly fresh and fresh tasting they might even be enough for a light-eaters meal. Tuna poke was on the spicy side but not overly so. Haley, who was our server, was very friendly and attentive. Always with a smile on her face and responsive to any request, she had our whole meal dialed in and relaxed. If you've just come in from the beach or wearing your relaxed linens, you will feel very relaxed here as the casual atmosphere will force you to u wind and get into island-time. The soft sandstone colors and the soft and comfortable couches will help you relax.

    Sliders and carne pizza

    We had the best lunch experience here. The sliders were amazing and our carne pizza was awesome also. Drinks were good. Vibe was amazing such a relaxing lunch. Service was amazing we had Shay-Lin and she was soo friendly and fun and super attentive to us. 10/10 experience.

She was prompt taking our orders and delivered the lunch in record time. We were thrilled with our overall selection for lunch.

Our flights routed through Atlanta to St. Thomas; there are no flights to St. John, only a ferry from St. John (or St. Croix), so we stayed one overnight at the Marriott Frenchman's Cove, which is next-door on the peninsula from the Westin, which is where you find Luna Mar; Frenchman's Cove offers rides in the hotel shuttles, and you can also walk... note that the short distance is hilly, and there are some blind spots but can also hear the cars coming, so if you walk, you should apply common sense and use all five physical senses and you'll be ok. Luna Mar, at the Westin, is a fantastic property, with wonderful views of Charlotte-Amalie and the rest of St. Thomas in one direction, and a view out into the ocean to the other direction. Luna Mar is an open-air restaurant... yet no insects! Unsure how that was/is possible, but we do confirm that there were no insects the night we dined there. Luna Mar serves fantastic food, which I thoroughly enjoyed with my wonderful wife at great restaurant with amazing views - Aegean lemon chicken - "Roasted chicken, oregano-lemon sauce, warm potatoes & arugula salad" - Chicken and regular and purple potatoes... with green beans... atop small salad... fantastic all around... chicken crispy on outside and juicy inside; fantastic potatoes - Provence-style sea bass - "Cannelloni purée, romesco sauce, lemon-garlic broccolini, peperonata, olive oil Aaliya - thank you for serving us on our visit. See you next visit, Luna Mar! ----- ----- -----

We originally had another restaurant on our radar but BOY were we happy we decided to take the short walk from the ship pier to Cravin' Crabs! They even serve Pancit (a delicious filipino noodle/spaghetti dish) I was not expecting to see that on the menu! Then when we left we realized there's a Filipino deli right next-door. So apparently it's authentic. The seafood was fresh and all the sides were unique and scrumptious! There was one side we enjoyed, we were not sure what it was, we could only decide it was the mashed potatoes, it tasted and had the texture more of some sort of dressing. Our server asked if we wanted some of the Tuscan seafood gravy on it and Yes, Yes, yes!! We did!! There was a little bit of a language barrier but we just pointed at what we wanted and it all worked out!! The food is right in front of you like cafeteria style so you can see what you are getting. My husband and I split one Tuscan Seafood plate with two sides, that was MORE than enough for the two of us for lunch. We'd definitely go back next time we are in ST. Thomas. Bravo!

I ended up showing up early so I was only able to see and try the breakfast menu and drinks, so those are the only items I can rate Ambiance: 5 stars. It's an open floor plan right on the dock. We were able to sit right next to the water and get some fresh air. The place isn't too loud, but very inviting. They have a bottomless mimosa option and this place feels like it would be a great brunch vibe Service: 4 stars. Staff was super nice and waitress was helpful in regards of what to order. There was an issue with steak being overcooked and they were able to replace it, but it did take taking to 3 different people, which I thought was weird Drinks: 3.5 stars. The Rum away with me was absolutely wonderful, but the White Russian was not good at all Food : 4.5 stars Steak and eggs was fantastic. We had to get the steak recooked, but when it was made well, it was a top shelf steak. Crab cakes: also would recommend! No notes here Breakfast burger:,really loved the fact that the patty was smashed. I was worried that there was too much going on but everything combined quite nicely. I got the breakfast potatoes and they weren't really anything special. Overall this place was a 4.5 stars, but I'm rounding up to 5 because the vibe and views were immaculate

We sat outside-unfortunately it was raining but I can see why people would come here on sunny days! Our dinner was good-I had fish tacos which were delicious and the fish pieces were very large. I subbed out fries for a salad-which was the largest side salad I have ever gotten in any restaurant! The highlight of the night was the Sangria-wow was that delicious! Our server was very friendly. One negative, our receipt had already included gratuity and when they handed me receipt, there was another blank line asking for gratuity (again!) and showing % options. This is very deceiving. Read carefully so you don't accidentally double tip! Oh, and there is an additional 3.5% non cash convenience fee. Thank you!

We made a reservation, but honestly it didn't seem totally necessary when we went. From the moment we sat down, the staff was on top of everything and so friendly. You could tell they really care about the experience, and everything flowed perfectly without feeling rushed. For drinks, we ordered the Vessup and the Carib and both were so good. The Vessup especially stood out, the cream on top was so smooth and delicious and just made the whole drink. They brought out fresh bread to start and it was so good (always a win in my book). For dinner, we went with the lobster with potato and broccolini and it was incredible. Everything was cooked perfectly and the flavors were just on point. Between the food, drinks, atmosphere, and service, this was easily one of our favorite dinners on the trip. Definitely a spot I'd recommend if you're looking for something a little nicer but still with that island feel.

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.

    Hate to say it, but the food at Isla Blue missed the mark in too many ways. We came specifically…read morefor 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.
