Restaurant
Bar
Gladys Café is a hidden gem located in the bustling tourist area of Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas. Tucked away in the Royal Dane Mall, this charming eatery offers refined Caribbean specialties within 18th-century native stone walls. Guests can savor dishes like conch fritters, jerk fish, and avocado stuffed with lobster salad while enjoying Gladys' homemade hot sauce and occasional impromptu singing performances.
Food/Taste/Flavor: 5/5 - Curry goat is super tender and well flavored. Rice was cooked with some beans with a hint of tomato. The plate also came with some cabbages, carrots, and 2 slices of plantain. Jerk wings (6 piece) had some great kick to it. Well marinated so the chicken actually has flavor rather than just the sauce. Kalaloo Soup (bowl) was slightly different from what we expected but quite delicious overall. We enjoyed the vegetables and beef in the soup. Bush Tea was strongly lemongrass flavor with hints of basil Service: 5/5 - everyone was really friendly and we had no issues as service was quick even though the restaurant was packed. Ambiance: 5/5 - the lighting is a bit dim but it felt quite homey with paintings on the wall and exposed brick masonry. It had a wine cellar vibe Value for price: 4/5 - pricing was a bit expensive but it is to be expected since it's such a touristy area.

Gladys’ Cafe is a cozy, family-owned spot tucked off Main Street. We stopped in for a quick breakfast while waiting for nearby stores to open. I had the 2-egg breakfast plate along with a Bahama Mama—simple, tasty, and reasonably priced. The next day, we originally planned to try a different restaurant, but it was closed—so back to Gladys’ we went. This time, I ordered the Oxtail Special. It was definitely good, but at $36 (as you’ll see in the photo below), it felt a bit overpriced. Overall, the food and atmosphere were enjoyable. It’s a great local option in a central location. Will I be back? Yes good food, solid vibes.

Gladys’ is our go-to breakfast spot whenever we’re in the VI! Unfortunately, we missed breakfast this time (island time got us 😅), but the food was still absolutely delicious. The only small letdown was the “spicy wings” — they were well-seasoned but definitely milder than expected. I was hoping for a real kick, but they seemed more tailored to the American palate. That said, everything else we ordered was fantastic. It always feels like an adventure heading into Gladys — the walkway lined with lush plants is just beautiful and sets the perfect island vibe. Still one of our favorite spots on the island!

Cute spot and opened on Sundays! Waitress wasn’t too familiar with the menu or food but he was great and had a positive attitude. Food came quick. I ordered the Cesar salad and it was delicious! The soups were blah. Had better and this taste canned. Coffee wasn’t good either.

Unfortunately, I did not read the reviews until after my experience at the restaurant. I must say that the path leading to the restaurant is beautiful, absolutely picturesque. Seeing the atmosphere and walking through the alleyway on Sunday morning, I had high hopes for brunch at Gladys'. Yet, my hopes were quickly dashed due to the long wait for order taking, extremely rude Server, and nonexistent customer service. The server notified us that they were short staffed and she was performing multiple job responsibilities. She told us to hurry up and order and looked annoyed when we asked questions about the menu options. She asked us to be patient about the wait, but had no patience whatsoever for us. When our drinks were brought to the table, she informed us that one person's order wasn't available-no cranberry juice. We still felt the disregard and disrespect from earlier and decided to pay for our drinks, cancel our food order and leave. It's a shame they have someone so mean, rude and severely lacking in proper etiquette to represent this restaurant. I hope the owner reads this or someone who cares about that business reads it so they can make a positive change. The offender is near the beverage machine wearing all black clothes and pink crocs. I don't pay people to treat me poorly and we quickly left and went to Indigo 4 for a fantastic brunch and excellent customer service with a smile .

Prompt and efficient service. Small local Cafe, recommended by a local merchant when I asked where I could find local food. The Conch Chowder was perfectly seasoned, thick and creamy. I couldn't resist the fresh fruit display on the bar and had fresh Soursop juice. Delicious.

Excellent service, the stewed chicken was THE best. coconut rum cake is so good. We sat at the bar and somehow our banana Bailey's colada kept getting topped off!

We had the most amazing time at Gladys Cafe. The food was local cuisine and tasted wonderfully. I recommend the Coconut Rum Cake!! We had the Stewed Chicken which was flavorful and fall off the bone. I highly recommend you make this a part of your Charlotte Amile plans. Sit at the bar for special treatment.

Fine dining restaurant
Nestled in the picturesque hills above Charlotte Amalie, the Old Stone Farmhouse is a must-visit dining destination for anyone looking to indulge in an unforgettable culinary experience. Housed in a beautifully restored 18th-century plantation stable, this upscale restaurant offers market-driven American cuisine that perfectly complements its historic ambiance. The intimate setting features candlelight and massive stone walls, creating a cozy yet elegant atmosphere ideal for celebrating special occasions or impressing new friends met on the beach.
If you’re on the fence because of some recent poor reviews I’d urge you to go anyway. We ate here last night and had a wonderful meal and excellent service. The atmosphere is soothing and elegant. Our service was well paced, so we could relax and really enjoy our food and surroundings. Not rushed and not slow. My fluke feature was fabulous, wonderfully balanced creative flavors. The wine selection is very nice with a wide range of price points. Desserts are made in house. Overall fabulous dining experience and we would absolutely go back again!

This isn't a meal. This is a culinary experience. One of the best restaurants on St. Thomas. Every detail is well thought out and amazing. The appetizers, the cocktails, the main courses, as well as dessert were all over the top. The location is also great and feels both historic and laid back. If you come to St Thomas, you owe it to yourself to try this place.

From start to finish, our experience was nothing short of exceptional. Aaron, our server, was professional, attentive, and ensured we had everything we needed throughout the meal. The food? Absolutely out of this world! Every course – from appetizers to main dishes to desserts – was bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. We were especially impressed when the chef personally came to our table to ask for feedback. It’s clear they care deeply about the quality of their food and guest satisfaction. Highly recommend a visit – this place is a gem!

Old Stone Farmhouse is hands down amazing!! Sin our waitress was so helpful and very accomodating! We went for my newphews graduation dinner and she gave a cute congratulations card from the staff at the end! They say reservations were needed but it wasnt terribly busy. Valet is around the back of the building.

We reserved a spot for dinner after our wedding. We unfortunately got lost on the way there and weee super late. The staff was amazing and allowed us to still have dinner. We didn’t feel rushed at all and everyone was so kind. Such a beautiful way to end our wedding night.

Seafood restaurant
Restaurant
Oceana Restaurant & Bistro, located in a former Russian Consulate building right on the water in Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas, offers an iconic dining experience with stunning views of Baye de GriGri. Known for its fine dining by the sea, this restaurant is a favorite among visitors seeking a high-end culinary experience in the Virgin Islands.
We had a great meal at Oceana during our visit. Dani was our waitress and did a terrific job—friendly, attentive, and helpful with the menu. We started with the oysters, which were fresh and well-prepared. My wife ordered the salmon with butternut puree, and I went with the 16 oz ribeye and potato gratin. The steak was cooked just right, and everything was served hot and timely. To finish off the meal, we each had a creamy espresso martini, which made for a nice nightcap. If you’re looking for a well-cooked meal and a great view, Oceana is worth the stop.

I enjoyed the food and topnotch service at this restaurant. I would suggest that you make a reservation. The view while dining is very nice. I will return when visiting St. Thomas again. I dined there on a Monday evening, my server was Ellie and she provided attentive service. I started with the Ceviche then ordered the Branzino and Bouillabaise.
Veronica W — Google review
The atmosphere was warm inviting. The was no live music at the time of dining. The salmon, tuna, and salad were delicious along with the deserts. I would definitely not mind coming back for seconds. Hopefully, I can enjoy the sunset on my next visit.

A local GEM!!! This is a hidden jewel in St Thomas. From your greeting, to the french press coffee with dessert, this experience is worth every cent! We had the special of the night, Caribbean lobster Mac and cheese, and seafood bouillabaisse. Perfectly prepared and seasoned. Our server Pamela was the perfect mix of attentiveness without hovering. With an exceptional meal, we went for dessert and I had the Grand Marnier creme brûlée ( WOW) and my husband loved his bread pudding. We have traveled extensively and Oceana is top notch for food and service.

Of all the pricey restaurants in st Thomas with promises of great food that didn’t necessarily deliver we finally found this amazing spot. Not only was it really good but memorable. From the appetizers to the desert back to back deliciousness 😋. Upon arrival the hostess didn’t ask who I was, she knew who I was and addressed me by my name as if I was a regular. Arriving at our table it was ready with a high chair already in place 🥰. I can’t say enough about this place. Thanks for the great food and experience.

This review is for ROSA and ROSA only so if you are not her keep scrolling please lol. Now I was here last month this was the fancy dinner place I chose for the trip, glad I did the views the hostess the service everything 10/10. I’m an oyster girly so we started with the oysters and they were soooo good; Rosa was so helpful when it came to picking the main dishes and both her choices were good ones honestly. They had the regular menu and the chefs special menu we order both our dishes from that menu and omggggg the tuna was so flavorful with the Asian flare I loved the mushrooms. The salmon was equally good as well for drinks I had lemon drops and there was a second runner up for to the best one I’ve had in Miami!! For dessert got the lemon cheesecake because I love all things lemon and h that was just as delicious too. Whenever I come back to st Thomas will definitely stopping by thank you Rosa for your wonderful service and recommendations.

Pizza Pi VI is a unique floating pizzeria located in Christmas Cove, a protected bay near the private island of Great Saint James in the US Virgin Islands. Accessible only by boat, this one-of-a-kind eatery offers New York-style pizza and is surrounded by translucent waters, coral reefs, and vibrant marine life, making it an ideal spot for snorkeling.
10 STARS to Pizza Pi. Fantastic view on the water while eating incredible pizza that can also be made with dietary restrictions all while creating unforgettable memories with alcohol? It doesn't even stop there... Rare to find, their customer service is beyond exceptional and deserves a globally recognized award. Do yourself a favor and make this place a goal to visit. You deserve it, and Pizza Pi deserves it more :) Can't even describe how satisfied I am with this experience.

Such a unique and unforgettable experience! Enjoying delicious pizza in the middle of the water, surrounded by stunning islands and crystal clear views, was absolutely surreal. The pizza was tasty, the frozen drinks were refreshing, and the whole vibe was just perfect. 10/10 recommend adding this spot to your bucket list, it’s a must do!

What a cool spot for pizza and drinks! We visited after a shark diving experience and it was the best pizza I’ve had on island. The boat is colorful, staff is so friendly, and the seating is so cool, with floats right in the beautiful water. My only complaint is that I don’t own my own boat to go enjoy it more often!

Pizza was WAY better than the Ritz-Carlton pizza!!! Amazing food and great service. The snorkeling right off the boat was incredible. We saw close to 100 turtles in the course of an hour or two.

While on a charter trip we came across Pizza Pi at Christmas Cove. Wow! Who would have thought of making fresh pizzas on the water. So fresh the dough is made daily on the boat!! If you havent ran across this sweet little gem...it is a must do on your bucket list!! We had the Sunburnt Tourist and the Castaway. Both hot, flavorful, and delicious!! One of our friends had a stromboli. Im not a big fan of strombolis because I have always felt it was too much thick dough. I was able to try it and it was delicious. Not too much dough nor was it thick. It was perfect! So just remember if you are on a boat and in the area of Christmas Cove do not worry about packing your lunch. Google Pizza Pi, pull up their menu, and order your pizza. They can deliver it to your boat, pull your boat up to them, or enjoy your pizza/stromboli on their floats that are tied to the Pizza Pi boat. You will definitely not be disappointed!! Oh before I forget...they have non alcoholic beverages, a bar, and frozen drinks!! All to be enjoyed while swimming and basking in the cool clear waters and soaking of the sun rays while making memories.

Nestled unexpectedly in the heart of a parking lot, Duffy's Love Shack stands out as a vibrant tiki bar that has been captivating visitors for 30 years. This lively hotspot in Red Hook Plaza boasts charming island-inspired decor, complete with thatched awnings and a bamboo bar. Guests can indulge in an array of unique drinks served in everything from fresh coconuts to quirky race car cups. The atmosphere is electric, especially during the daily happy hour from 3 to 7 p.m.
This place never disappoints. I have never had a bad time here. But I am writing this review because the last time was especially special. The food was delicious! I cannot recommend that jerk chicken sandwich enough. I even was able to share it because it wasn't spicy. Great job. But Stephanie our server was incredible. She went above and beyond and really made this an experience to remember.

We had a great experience at Duffy’s. The grouper was so tasty and a huge portion, and I even had some to take back to my cats at the resort. The music was great and our server was very friendly and attentive. It was pretty empty (Tuesday afternoon in September) so there was plenty of seating. The breeze was awesome; the chickens/roosters were entertaining; and our kids will be thrilled with the souvenir cups we bring home!

We had such a great experience at Duffys! Great service, great atmosphere, great food in the most unlikely of places, a parking lot in a strip mall. We were traveling on a cruise and had a parasailing day at Sapphire beach (also highly recommend). When we were done, we asked someone where we could go to go shopping and get some food, at first she told us just go back the cruise shops. We then mentioned we'd really like some conch fritters, she then immediately came back with, "Duffy's! Go to Duffy's" So we take a taxi from Saphire Beach to Duffys ($6 per person) and we stop in the parking lot in the strip mall. We are looking all over the strip mall and cannot find this restaurant and then we turn around and see this little shack in this already small parking lot, but don't let that deter you, really it just positively adds to the experience. They have menus that are on small pieces of bamboo that can double as a fan(fun). The atmosphere is just what you'd want from an island bar and grill. There was great local art and chickens literally walking around. Prices were reasonable, not cheap, but for island prices really not bad. Drink prices, great! You can get a shot and get to keep the shot glass for less than a shot glass at the neighboring gift shop. Also, we like to collect logo'd bar cups and these came with our beverages. We got the "Caribbean PuPu platter". It came out in sections with the most delicious fried foods and to top it off a little mini grill to grill our pineapple on. This was my favorite, little thing. I cant say enough great things about all of the little things. The staff was EXCELLENT! Andy took such great care of us with a smile on his face and thew in a few jokes here and there. Duffy's also had shirts at a great price with what also seems to be reprints of local art, we loved these shirts and were able to secure 4 of them for less than the neighboring stores and it was just a reminder of what a great time we had there. Thank you Andy and the rest of the staff for such a memorable experience. If we are ever in St. Thomas again, this will be the first place we stop! I highly recommend Duffy's! It was the hidden gem after our trip to Sapphire Beach!

We got married in St Thomas in 2023 We picked Duffys as a gathering place for all our wedding guest it was around 40 people. The staff was above and beyond ..drinks kept coming the atmosphere was live and hype...I had the Polynesian Pupu platter(may be spelling it wrong lol) but alot of our guest followed suit it was one of the best things on the menu ..I highly reccommend it!! Honestly I was so buzzed from the excellent drinks I cant remember any staff names...but this is a must do when you visit STT or even a local!! matter of fact my wife and I are here in STT for our 2 year anniversary...I think we will drop by!!!! It intresting that its called the "love shack" we certainly fell in love with it!!!......Sooooo part 2 today Oct 7 2025. We decided to pay the love shack a visit...my how times change...We walked in sat a a table looked at the menus...and NO ONE, NOT A SINGLE EMPLOYEE, acknowledged us, PERIOD!! I went with such high expectations excited to relive our wedding experience and to tell the staff what an awesome time we had...But again that was short lived...We walked out (not noticed) the same as when we walked in...No Love at this "Love Shack" pun intended...I will just say this ...if you are a brown or black person..just keep it moving...even if you go with a crowd and the act pleased to see you...they arent!....sad sad sad times we are living in...And yes all my 5 star ratings were reduced to 1 and none....Like a wise man once told me..A good name is won by many acts...but can be lost by one!!!

This place is set up like a tiki bar in a parking lot, but has small tables with bar stools for seating too. Their cocktail menu is full of crazy drinks. Order the shark tank. (Don't worry. You can share it). The food is done in a fun way. We ordered fried shrimp, jerk chicken nachos, and the Polynesian Pu-Pu (this comes with a miniature fire pot to sear the foods that come on this plate, such as steak and rum-soaked pineapple). It's loud here, with either live music or classic rock/beach music.

We wanted to grab a quick dinner and thought Duffy's looked good and we were really glad we did. The house-made conch fritters were delicious. The blackened mahi-mahi was perfectly seasoned and the burger was juicy and cooked just right. Dannelle took great care of us at the bar, and her Painkillers definitely left us feeling good. If we had another night in St. Thomas, we'd have come back for another round.
