Port of Spain, the capital of Trinidad and Tobago, has the tall buildings, neon lights and crowded streets of many cities, but also a multicultural Caribbean character and a homegrown calypso soundtrack.

Among the city's other offerings are cricket and football matches, year-round festivals, a botanic garden, malls, an art and history museum and historic buildings. Entertainment options abound, but be cautious after dark.

Today we decided to try out an A La Carte lunch after a very disappointing dinner last night. A chance to redeem our view of terribly poor service, slow seating, slow order taking, slow arrival of food, and a mediocre meal. Hm.. unfortunately, today was not any better. My hot meal took so long to come to the table, and we were two of only six people in the restaurant, so there was no excuse that they were busy, but the steamed vegetables and the grilled chicken were all ALMOST luke-warm. ALMOST. We were halfway through our meals when the waitress popped up to ask if our meal was fabulous. Really? This place needs a good management shakeup! While the staff were all friendly, the overall impression is of a very loose system. Staff chatting to one another with no eye contact with guests. Thereâs no evidence anywhere of Management checking on staff, or customer satisfaction. Retraining is really needed here as individual friendliness of waiting staff, or a reduction of 10% off my meal, doesnât make up for yet another disappointing dining experience. Weâre here for two weeks, so letâs hope that someone somewhere listens and acts up guests observations! Hilton Hotel, you can, and should, do better than this.

When you land from England and want to feel like you really have arrived, first stop and first food you eat in Trinidad has to be a roti from Hotte Shoppe. And Iâd didnât disappoint. The best shrimp roti ever. Amazing value and so tasty and delicious. So lucky to be in Trinidad and did my first meal to be the best roti in town

6. El Pecos

El Pecos is famous in POS for its quality, reasonably priced, and varied local meal options. It is THE go to place to go to for a quick, but great lunch, or when you don't feel like cooking all those myriad of dishes at home. Remember to wear gloves when touching the utensils in the buffet line, as they take cleanliness seriously. Have your money ready, as the line moves fast, add a refreshing drink, and sit out on their porch to get the full POS El Pecos experience.

This was an excellent dining experience. As I am writing this review we are sitting outside at this restaurant just finishing breakfast overlooking the harbor, the water with a wonderful breeze cascading through the patio we are on. We had dinner one night and a breakfast another morning. The vibe and energy of the property is very positive. At the Hyattt, the food is excellent, well prepared, with island diversity options, and the service has been both for dinner and breakfast outstanding. The wait staff makes you feel really valued. For dinner, I had salmon which had island spices/unique pepper was really was outstanding. My wife had a local fish that just melted in her mouth. Our guest, who is from Trinidad, raved about how her meal, steak, was prepared. We all had a side of coconut spinach which was very good too. It was our guests first time at this restaurant. She will be back. Breakfast options outside of the buffet were somewhat limited, I had Eggs Benedict that was very tasty. I did look at the buffet and what was offered ... it looked like one of the best I have seen as far as choices. The chef will customize anything you wanted which I love when I go to a restaurant. I would highly recommend this place if you want a really wonderful dining experience in Port-of-Spain.

I can never eat all I get on my plate although it's light fare.Wait staff could be a bit more vigilant but it's a chilled out spot so you are a bit more tolerant unless you're super hungry.Tasty club sandwiches and the spicy wings are good.Great place to meet with friends if you don't want to leave the hotel.Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
