Brought our catch here after a fishing trip and they cooked it up just right for our group of 8. The margaritas were solid too. Staff was friendly, though it got a bit busy later.

The shrimp fajitas were decent, good flavor with a bit of a kick. Place looks like a hole in the wall, but the food&#39;s pretty solid. Service was fine, nothing special.

The chow mein here is solid, and the fried chicken was pretty good too. Mr. Ben took care of us, no complaints there. The dining room felt a bit cramped though, tables are kinda close together. Not a big deal if you&#39;re just grabbing a quick bite. I&#39;d come back for the food, maybe just get it to go next time.

The live music really set the mood, even though our reservation got lost. Staff still found us a table though. Food was solid and filling.

Stopped by a few times while in town. Wings and buffalo chicken wrap were solid. Fried rice was decent too. Burgers were dry though&mdash;skip those.

The green salsa here is the real deal&mdash;sweet at first, then the heat creeps up on you. Burritos are solid for the price, even if the place is basic and a bit warm inside.

The pistachio gelato was spot on&mdash;creamy, nutty, not too sweet. Yogurt cheesecake flavor surprised me too. Place is kinda out of the way, but I&#39;d go back just for those two.

Stopped in for a quick bite and a Bloody Mary. That drink? Best I&#39;ve had around here, hands down. Also grabbed the cream cheese poppers&mdash;solid choice, crispy and hot. Place was chill for a weekday afternoon. Service was fast enough for my lunch break. Might be back when I need a speedy pick-me-up.

The rum punch was strong and the key lime pie hit the spot. Solid spot for a casual dinner in the village, nothing fancy but it worked.

Big burritos, like really big. Got the chicken stew one, hit the spot. Good option for a Sunday when everything else is shut.

Breakfast all day is a solid move. Had the burrito and tacos&mdash;both hit the spot. Service was friendly, even threw in a little humor.

Came here twice while I was in town, once for my birthday. The ice cream&#39;s creamy and the flavors are solid. But honestly, the portions felt a bit small for what you pay. I get it&#39;s a tourist spot, but I left wanting a bigger scoop. Good, just not a steal.

Ritzie made the whole visit tbh. Killer margarita and the sushi was solid. Place has a nice buzz without being too loud.

Decent food and the view is hard to beat. Service was pretty slow though, took a while to get our table and then the food. Fine if you&#39;re not in a rush.

Came here with a few friends last Friday and honestly the live music was the highlight for me. We grabbed a table near the back, ordered some drinks and the food was pretty solid too. Service was chill, not too pushy. Only thing is it got a bit loud when more people showed up, but that&rsquo;s kinda expected. Would come back for a casual hangout 😊

Been eating here for years. The wine list is solid for this area, no complaints. Owner runs the shop next door too, so you can grab a bottle to take home after. Food&#39;s always been consistent, that&#39;s why I keep coming back.

Service was a bit inconsistent. We had a few different waiters and there were long gaps between drinks and food, even though the place wasn&#39;t full. They were friendly enough when they actually came by, just not very attentive. I&#39;d probably go back for the food, but maybe on a quieter day.

The fish tacos at this open-air spot were the highlight for me &mdash; fresh and packed with flavor. Live reggae during lunch made it feel extra chill. Drinks were good too, nothing fancy but solid.

The papaya pancakes here were really good&mdash;soft and not too sweet. I sat outside and the breeze made it easy to linger over coffee. Service was friendly without hovering, which I appreciate. Only small thing: it took a bit to get the check, but I wasn&#39;t in a hurry. A solid spot for a relaxed breakfast in Placencia.

Solid burger spot. Mr. Q was legit, friend said best he&#39;s had in a while. Peel-and-eat shrimp were fresh, nothing fancy. Owner came by and chatted with us on the deck, nice touch. Water view helped. Service was chill, not rushed. Would go back if I&#39;m in the area again.

Stopped in for coffee and ended up staying longer than planned. Place has a good vibe, owners clearly put work into it. Menu&#39;s got a bit of everything. Solid spot.

The fish empanadas with pickled sides were solid, though the kitchen moves slow when it&#39;s packed. A cold beer helps pass the wait.

The coconut shrimp was solid, snapper fried just right and those sauces had real flavor. Seafood platter did not disappoint either. Service kept things moving, drinks came out strong. Place was busy but we never felt rushed. Would come back for that snapper alone. 🍤

The watermelon margarita was solid and the curry hit the spot. Darian kept checking in with good energy, which made the whole thing feel easy. Place had a nice buzz to it too.

Server knew their stuff. Swapped regular flour for coconut flour on the shrimp without me even asking twice. Felt looked after, no fuss. Solid spot.

The ceviche was fresh, no doubt. Got the mixed plate and it was plenty for two people. Sitting right by the Split, you can basically jump in the water after you eat. Price was fair for what you get, especially for a tourist spot. Just wish the service was a bit quicker, took a while to get our drinks.

Found this place tucked behind the soccer field&mdash;easy to miss. Grilled shrimp was the move, generous portion and cooked just right. Lobster was good too but honestly the shrimp stood out. Fresh, simple, no fuss. If you&#39;re in the area and craving seafood, this hits the spot. Maybe a little off the main path but worth hunting down.

The fish nachos were really good and the spot right on the beach is hard to beat. Service was friendly enough, just a bit slow when it got busy. Would come back for the view alone.
