Reviews on Caribbean food in Christiansted, St. Croix, Caribbean. If you love the beach, but also want a little culture, you'll love Christiansted, one of St. Croix's two waterfront towns. Historic churches, charming courtyards, shaded walkways, stone arches, antique lampposts and rows of restored townhouses add to the city's appeal. Relax on a tranquil, white sand beach or float in the aquamarine water. Enjoy the many shops, boutiques, galleries, cafes and restaurants, or visit attractions like Fort Christianvaern, the Customs House and the Old Scale House.

Family vacation dinner night out and so glad we picked Duggan's Reef. Food is absolutely incredible. Entrees ordered at our table included the Surf & Turf NY Strip & 1/2 small lobster, Wahoo Seafood special, Filet Mignon, & Spiced Pork. All were delicious. Wine list is very limited but does have good choices. Dining is all outside on a covered deck right on the sea with incredible views. Two reasons I scored them 4 vs 5 is because 1) the pet cat "Tuna Can" jumped upon our table when our 1st course was served; shocked and suprised we shoo'ed her away and she kindly abliged. And 2) Service was good but ot great. Much more attention was given to the well-known locals and we were tourists and I guess it was assumed we were just one-time diners. A little disheartening but the delicious food is worth the trip.

We have been spending summers on the island for seven years now. We have always loved this place for it's ambiance and delicious cuisine. Whether we sit inside or on the terrace we always enjoy ourselves. Quaint, friendly and great food. Treat yourself, reservations recommended especially on the weekends.

Like clockwork, hubby and I migrate to St. Croix at the end of May for 9 days to celebrate our anniversary and reconnect with our island "home". Last year for our 20th, we were fortunate enough to arrange an amazing 3-course dinner with cocktail pairings featuring Cruzan Blackstrap Rum at balter. I reached out to Patrick, owner and GM of balter, again this year and he graciously agreed to do it again for us! Unfortunately, Patrick was off island during our visit, but the Assistant GM, Dave, knew just who we were and warmly welcomed us. Alex started us off with a Sazerac at the bar, and she could not have been more gracious and friendly as we savored our cocktail and munched on delicious house made popcorn. Nothing compares to a great Sazerac, and Alex brought this classic drink to the islands with a sorrel infused ice ball. We enjoyed it so much, we had to have another... Soon enough, it was time to sit down for our special dinner, marked by a lovely "Happy 21st Anniversary" placard on the same table we sat at last year. Yes, they even remembered that!! I believe our server's name was Angela, but I could be wrong. Apologies if I'm mistaken, but she was very kind and attentive and guided us perfectly through our meal. "Our" table is right next to the open kitchen, so we were able to watch Chef Brian (and another Chef whose name I unfortunately didn't get) as he cooked and smell the tantalizing aromas of our meal as the courses were prepared. Alex created a drink just for us to go with our meal that featured Blackstrap and Captain Morgan, and it was DELICIOUS. The tropical flavors paired wonderfully with our first dish...perfectly, and I do mean PERFECTLY cooked scallops with smoked fish and hints of Blackstrap. While we didn't want to take the last bite, we knew more deliciousness was on the horizon. Our second course was a juicy, smoked beef brisket over mashed potatoes, drizzled with Blackstrap gravy. UN...BE...LIEVABLE! Another of our special cocktails arrived just as we were presented with creamy Blackstrap infused ice cream and a decadent slice of chocolate cake. Chef Brian even came out to toast us with a shot of Blackstrap! VERY well-deserved after conceiving of and preparing such an unforgettable meal. On balter's website, Patrick is quoted saying "Itâs the warmth of the staff that makes balter special." That statement could not be more true, and we can't say enough how much we appreciate the efforts of every team member. The care they feel for their guests is palpable and elevates what could be just another amazing meal into a one of a kind and truly memorable experience. Thank you so much, and we can't wait to see you all next year!!We love the opportunity to help make your 21st Anniversary so special! It'll only keep getting bette every year after! Congratulations you two! You two are an inspiration for love! Thanks so much of the great review! We look forward to seeing you again soon!

Went for lunch(May 23,2019). Service and Atmosphere was great as usual. Food was good, menu was too limited for our "picky" teen-aged son. Have dined here for dinner in the past(April 2018) and have a similar positive experience. Will visit again.

Had researched all STX restaurants to find a spot for our special celebration. Zion looked interesting with the chalkboard art and al fresco dining so we were eager to give it a try. Although the host was quite sweet and we received a decent table in the courtyard area, our server approached our table with quite an attitude despite our efforts to get her to warm to us. We weren't sure if it was because we had a few kids with us or if that was her typical demeanor. She acted as if she was going out of her way to help us for simple requests. While most of the dining on the island would not be classified as efficient, it is pretty reliably friendly at all the other hotspots and so we'd much rather spend our money elsewhere. Note - they did not accept Amex (another time the server offered a know it all comment).

We were looking forward to the Sunday brunch after our visit in 2017. It did not disappoint. Both of the plates that we ordered were very good and the plates were huge. A very good way to start your Sunday. While waiting for order, had a bloody mary at the bar. This was very good since you can get spicy and boy is that good.

On the advice of a local we called Harvey's to see if they prepared whole fried snapper and what a gtreat surprise ! We had such a great meal and wonderful fresh drinks! "Mom" in the kitchen fried Randy's fish perfectly and my chicken lunch special was delicious! This little gem in downtown Christiansted serves up authentic local food with friendly service! We will certainly try it again in the fall!
