January 22, 2014, Dinner at L'Isola

We are in Gustavia for a simple change of pace dinner at a very special destination-L'Isola. After many nights of French fare, we opt for an Italian dining experience.

The dimly lit dining room at L'Isola. Some think it romantic, some may think it eyesight challenging. I opt for the candlelight and romance. You may want to bring iphones and mini flashlights to boost the lighting.



The creamy fresh burratta and ripe red tomato wedges were excellent


I had the spaghetti with local lobster chunks in a tomato sauce that was light and allowed the lobster taste to blossom on the palate.


Phil had a hearty bowl of fettucini Bolognese topped with freshly ground Parmesan cheese.


A nice walk to the car and a leisurely drive home under a star studded sky capped another special night. Ahhh, St Bart!

Bravo! Something about this review has pushed this restaurant up to "must do" for next trip! Especially the lobster in pasta, the romance, and the leisurely stroll under the stars

Divine! That lobster spaghetti is making my day!!!!

Kat....my first trip to L'Isola was November 2013 and it is now on my "must do" list. It is a most elegant and scrumptious dining experience.

The bowl is hearty for sure.

We went in November and it is now on our must do list. But we will remember the cell phone next time

That langouste spaghetti gets my vote, too - one of my favorite meals in our trip last month!
