    For the second night in a row (different on-property restaurant), an ordered side salad never came. Last night service was poor and the wait was over an hour for the entree (minus salad ahead of time or even accompanying). Tonight those were better but same thing: entrees appeared but no salad. We sent back the entrees and then got the salad but not as ordered. More sending back. More? Sure, how about the menu on THIS SITE being weeks out of date. Pay no attention to comments about, for instance, the lamb dish or mussels; neither is on the menu as it exists. That all ties to lack of management oversight as our server was very good otherwise. Davidson Hotels, who bought the property, has a large and varied hospitality list across the US. Perhaps they'll get to work on this because it's going to take some (work). And in the vein of "once shame on you, twice shame on us", we'll dine off-premises tomorrow and then try offered buffets for the rest of our stay nights where we can get our own salad or whatever. Also worth noting, neither night did anyone come over to discuss the omissions/problem much less even offer to buy dessert. We would have declined but that would be normal customer-focused service. Marriott doesn't care any more (CEO has said as much, that stockholders are all that matters) but I'd think the property ownership, Davidson, would.

    The chicken was dry, not very flavorful, the rice was also dry. The squid ink and seafood was good. Cindy, our server, was excellent.

    Our waitress, Myrtle was excellent. She and the chef worked to make sure my food issues were addressed. My grouper was delicious and prepared without any of the ingredients I have to avoid. Others in our group had the Cobb salad which was great, steak ( just ok) , and a pasta dish with scallops and prawns, which was excellent. Myrtle checked back on us regularly to refill drinks and made recommendations of things she thought we should try ( Johnny cakes). The manager came by twice to check that things were going well. Everyone was very pleasant and we look forward to eating there again on our next trip.

    Very pretty place but very dark. Had to ask for a light to see the menu. Food came out wrong and when got it back it was cold. Dessert was very good. Service was ok.

    This is a wonderful ocean front dining experience. The mahi fish was cooked perfectly. The jerk chicken and rice was also delicious. The price point excellent for the USVI. We saw the most beautiful sunset too.
