This is a fine restaurant, with outdoor garden dining by a beautifully landscaped rock wall & waterfall, or inside dining in the air conditioning. There's also a piano bar that's very popular with both tourists & locals. Currently playing were a pair of baby-faced scallawags from the UK who played like angels, and they drew quite a crowd every night. There's even a dance floor to help work off all that delicious food.

Upstairs is another open air casual bar with widescreen TV for sports.

The restaurant seating is large enough that you may not need reservations, but it's still recommended since this is a popular restaurant with Islanders as well as visitors.

Favorite Dish: Love the Tropical Lobster Salad & the Mussels Au Gratin - those made one meal one night, but I had to go back again for more of the demon piano players, and to try the Mahi Mahi Con Salsa Dei Caraibi (Yum!) . This restaurant also offers a very comprehensive wine list, including some fun ones from the UK world wide that I'd never tried before.

Address: Spanish Town, the Valley
Comparison: more expensive than average
Directions: Past Fischer's Cove Hotel along the main street, to where the road comes to a T, you'll drive right into their parking lot if you go straight.
