Caribbean Food Guide: 10 European food Must-Eat Restaurants & Street Food Stalls in Gustavia

August 27, 2019 Brain Ambrose

Reviews on European food in Gustavia, Caribbean. Red roofed buildings speckle the lush tropical landscape in Gustavia, St. Bart's tiny, relaxed Caribbean capital whose historic sites can be reached in one day of trekking around town. 17th century forts line the harbor, from Fort Karl in the north to Fort Gustaf with its lighthouse and cannons in the south. Near Fort Gustaf is the popular Shell Beach, where beachcombers rove for sparkling shells. The town's many duty-free boutiques call to shoppers while cozy cafes offer views over the harbor.

Restaurant l'Indigo

It is from the bottom of our hearts that we thank you for your support and patience as we start our reopening journey for late 2018.

We stayed at Le Guanahani and had lunch or small meals everyday. Casual beachfront location, under cover, toes in the sand with views of the ocean and lagoon beaches. Good food options ranging from ceviches, salads, pastas, sandwiches and grilled fish & meat, all with picturesque presentation.

Aux amis

At Le Barthélemy, two dining experiences have been created in one spectacular seaside setting. By day, the menu is light, fresh and carefree. As the sun sets, Aux Amis surfaces, sending a ripple through the daytime calm and offering island-inspired French

Reviewed By TSF3333

We had dinner at Francois Plantation last night. The dining room is one of the most elegant on the island. It is reminiscent of some of the old colonial hotels you find in Asian cities. The crowd was older, mostly American and fairly sedate for such a sexy island.Our dinner was very, very good. Setting magnificent. What got to me was the sommelier. I joked with him that I'd been on the island for almost ten days, was down to my last few francs and would appreciate his recommendation for a wonderful, full bodied red that I could afford with my thin wallet. He immediately suggested, without a hint of humor, a $500 bottle of wine. We ordered a bottle of the house red ($90) and it was better than fine. Very good, actually. We've been coming to St. Barths for 30 years and think it one of the best places we've ever been. But every once in awhile you have a needlessly rude experience here and this was the one on this holiday. Otherwise, the Hurricane Irma torn island is working hard to come back to life and return itself to the paradise so many of us love.Dear guest,May we thank you for the elogious review you posted on TripAdvisor regarding your experience François Plantation.We are delighted to read your compliments, be sure we will be proud to share them with all our team as well as your wine choice experience, please accept our sincerest appologies about this misunderstading from our sommelier.We hope to see you back soonKind regardsZora StratenwerthGeneral Manager

La Guerite

Enjoy a mediterranean experience with a unique view of the harbor of Gustavia. Since 1935, nestled on the rocky cove of Sainte-Marguerite Island, in front of Cannes, La Guérite has seduced a worldwide clientele sensitive to its charm, authenticity and cui

Reviewed By AllStarEater

While La Guerite has a beautiful setting on the quiet side of Gustavia Harbour, the attractive decor and glittering clientele did not make up for the poor food and poor service at the highest prices seen on this island. The waiter ignored us for 25 minutes until he came to ask what we wanted to order. We had not been offered cocktails or a wine list at that point. Be advised, the food arrives ‘as ready’ which means some of your guests will finish their meal before others have been served. The presentation of the dishes was not to be believed....poor food simply thrown onto a plate. My entree of wahoo looked like a ‘dogs breakfast’ and one of my guests shared this view. St. Barth’s has such world class restaurants and dining is such a pleasure. Even the bread here was bad and we had to grab it ourselves from a service table. If the management was short of staff, they should have done something to compensate guests versus acting as if we should have felt privileged to be at their establishment. This restaurant should be avoided.Dear AllStarEater,Thank your for your review and for finding the time to write it, in details.We are extremely sorry to read you did not appreciate your evening at La Guérite St Barth.We do our very best every day to make our customers happy thanks to our cuisine and our table service.Your detailed review will be sent to the restaurant management as well as our Executive Chef.Our main goal is to improve and we pay extreme attention to reviews like yours.We would be extremely happy to have another opportunity to please you.Sunny regards,La Guérite Team.

Five years had passed since our last visit and this restaurant continues to be one of our favourites for lunch in St Barth, as we confirmed last week. Excellent food, great setting and service. We love coming back whenever we visit the island.Interesting that it is not mentioned in some restaurant guides/lists.

Stopped here with a group of friends for lunch and had an amazing meal! I ordered the cheeseburger and it was great...way too much to eat in one sitting. Lunch was followed up by a shot of vanilla rum! Great service and good prices.

Sand Bar is currently located in Lorient. It’s the new Eden Rock Pop Up Beach. It’s as beautiful as you’d expect. We rented to sun beds for the day and had lunch in the lounge area. It’s not cheap but we had a really great afternoon there so we felt it was worth it. It would be great if Eden Rock would keep this satellite beach even when their hotel reopens.
