We arrived yesterday and had our traditional first dinner at Le Repaire. It was just what we needed after a day of travel. Tonight we have a reservation at Maya’s, so we now have 6 meals left, although we will take a break I’m sure. I’m disappointed that one of our favorites, Les Bananiers, is closed, but I know there are plenty of other choices. If there is a place that we should not miss, please let me know. What about Fouquet’s? Or lunch at Chevalier Blanc or Lil Rock? Curious to know what recommendations you all might have. Thank you.
Just arrived and looking for restaurant recommendations
- Thread starter Aew-sk
- Start date
Luncheon recommendation — Cafè Gloriette in Gustavia. Casual, chic, & exquisitely healthy.
Today I enjoyed Mahi tartare (tartare served on a bed of guacamole & red leaf lettuce, topped with thin slices of avocado, shavings of zucchini & carrots, cherry tomatoes, pomegranate & sesame seeds . . . in a beautiful vinaigrette.
. . . followed by yummy risotto with leeks & zucchini, prepared with coconut milk & cream (no cheese, unless requested)
. . . and a taste of banana bread with chocolate and spirulina
Everything — including a glass of champagne & La Gloriette’s famous vanilla rhum! — was Gluten- & Dairy-free.

Too many choices.

Do you mean at Le Barthélemy hotel?
Bartolmeo was the restaurant at Guanahani, not open since Irma...
Thank you all for the recommendations. We will definitely try Zion one night and will try to hit the Sand Bar for lunch one day. As an update, we postponed Maya’s until tonight. We were spooked by the rain yesterday afternoon, but by dinner time, Maya’s would probably have been fine. So we picked up pizza from Papa’s-Vivaldi pizza with spicy sausage. It was very good.
