Here is a partial list of the restaurants on St. John that are certainly worth trying.
Most of them are located in or near Cruz Bay, but a growing number of them can be found
in the Coral Bay area and beyond. And a couple lie somewhere in between.
For each of these, we will indicate whether they are inexpensive (by St. John standards),
moderately priced, or expensive by using the notation
$,
$$,
and
$$$,
respectively.
We will also indicate whether it would be a more appropriate for a party of four to take a
taxi to a particular restaurant or whether that restaurant should be reserved for those days
in which you have a rental car available. For these notes, we will use the notation
TAXI
or
R-CAR.
For most of these restaurants, we will be able to provide a Web address where you may take a look
its menu, find its location, and learn other things about the establishment.
Telephone numbers will be provided, also, as will a note or two giving our thoughts about this place.
