Roy's Blue Water Grill — Restaurant in South Caye Caulker

Ordered a grilled fish with garlic potatoes and garlic bread. I asked and specified for a garlic sauce on the fish. Everything except the garlic bread came out covered with this cheap and nasty seasoning, resting on a bed of an oily substance. Nothing tasted garlic in this plate except a light flavor of garlic on the bread, the rest of the items on the plate had this strong cheap msg flavoured seasoning. I had to return my plate as I was unable to ingest the meal, the seasoning was overpowering all the flavours. Afters speaking with the manager, she told me that apparently that is how they do the fish in this establishement, generousely sprinkled with seasoning. One of the waitresses came back and offered to make me another fish without the seasoning. Knowing ahead of this way of cooking i would pass this place. In my humble opinion,a grilled fish(on charcoal right in front of the restaurant) does absolutely not require any sort of seasoning, other than salt maybe. Drinks are ok, nothing too crazy, average pre-mixed flavours. Second fish came out without seasoning as promised by the waitress, however it could have been grilled a little longer, same for the previous fish,too soft on the inside not crispy enough on the outside .As per the potatoes,they are just like some simple roadside diner breakfast pan grilled breakfast potatoes pieces. In my opinion, the meal is way overpriced for the quality of...

Abhorrent & Disgusting,

The fake flower arrangements on the table are an affront to the very culture they poorly pretend to represent. Especially since its on a Caribbean island and there are fresh flowers everywhere on the island.

My wife ordered the snapper. What she received was closer to cured/salted fish that had not been properly prepped. It was insanely salty and inedible. The “Jalapeño Margarita” is pure margarita mix, zero booze. Plus when we asked, the bartender didn’t know that margarita's are made with tequila!!!!!!! The “Salad” is a mushy, wilted mess, not sure why it’s even a menu item. Then my "Fresh Caught" lion fish arrived which had clearly turned and was rancid. It literally smelled like vomit. They staff insisted that we didn't know what we were talking about and proceeded to act like children and refused to make eye contact after being busted pushing disgusting food.

The takeaway: Roy’s place only adds to the overall observation that most Belizeans think outsiders have no clue, about food, basic life skills or anything for that matter. The “hustlers” here will try their best to pull the wool over your eyes in the most elementary ways. Seriously, it's like being hustled my an 8 year old. It would be endearing except for the fact that they are adamant in their...

Don't waste your time or get fooled by the Taco Express signs outside the restaurant!

Stopped in because there were signs outside that advertise/say Taco Express. Sat down and were told they were not serving tacos. We asked when they would be serving tacos and the owner said "tomorrow, come after 5pm." We had a drink and left. Came back the next day, after 5pm, and had to ask for the taco menu. Server did not seem happy that we asked for a taco menu instead of the more expensive menu. Placed our order and took over 1 hour to get semi cold tacos and crunch wraps (when we sat down and ordered the restaurant was not busy.) Tacos were mediocre at best, crunch wraps were much better than the tacos. We also witnessed the owner basically talling a patron he needed him to leave so he could push 2 tables together and seat a group of 6. This patron had just finished eating and still had half of their drink left. Also, witnessed another table being told they could not sit at a table for 4 because there were only 2 guests. Was extremely disappointed in the food, service and...
