   We loved sitting outside on the patio to enjoy the great Caribbean breezes and would have appreciated hearing the sounds of nature as well. Our preference for music would have been something more relaxed than the fairly lively (reggae, afro Cuban types of selections more appropriate for a bar) than they were playing. That said the food was excellent, the steak tender and properly cooked, the chicken very well seasoned. The Brussels sprouts could have used more flavor, but the asparagus and the Brussels were cooked well. Our server was as nice as can be but the service was slow. We don’t know if they were understaffed or whether the problem was in the kitchen. Anyway it took quite a while for our drinks and food to arrive. Overall, we would definitely return.

   We had the special Half of Caribbean Lobster with mashed potatoes & broccoli and it was very good. The service was also very good. The only disappointment was that night there was no Bartender (we later learned he had injured himself at home), so only wine and beer were available.

   Only adequate. Very slow service. Order 2 drinks at a time. They will get back to you in a Caribbean minute.

   Went over for dinner last night since it was our first night at the resort. Limited menu, with only about a half a dozen entress, but the food was good. My wife liked her short ribs and I liked my fried snapper. Calyisha was our server, and while she was friendly, she wasn't super attentive, the food was auctioned off and my drink came out wrong. Prices are about what you'd expect to pay at a resort (higher than formal), but the food was good. If you go, don't expect great service.

   Short rib pasta was loaded with short rib meat. Delicious! Kobe beef burger cooked perfectly to a medium rare+ doneness. Bacon jam and toppings were great additions. Cocktails and service were outstanding on a quiet Saturday evening.

   Out of quite a few items with a very limited selection already. Food was super fast which meant it was pre-made. Jidori Chicken had good flavor but was dry. Braised short rib with tagliatelle was good. Star of the show was the key lime pie. Excellent service though.

    Food was good but service was incredible disorganized and slow. Understand it was the slow season but it took 20+ mins to get water. We never got small plates for bread/appetizers and food was delivered sporadically over a span of 10 mins to our party of 6.
