Eastern Star Bar & Fish Fry — Restaurant in East End

We stopped here on our port adventure with Disney Cruise Line and I have to say the food was outstanding. The fish and the chicken was so delicious and I wished I had time to get another piece of Fish. It was so fresh and lightly breaded and fried! Nothing beat eating this delicious email and having beach front views. Sadly it rained almost the whole time but was magical and would highly recommend stopping here. For drinks we tried both the iced tea and lemonade and both were sweet and refreshing.

So disappointed last Saturday. My mom is here visiting and imagine I passed the ACTUAL decent portions of food they sell at the fish shop in bodden town.. telling my mom this restaurant in East End is way better. My BF insisted BT is better. I pushed no, let’s go to East End, it will be worth it. All for us all to be disappointed.

NEVER AGAIN!

First my BF ordered conch soup & fritters but mostly wanted the soup. Waiting for a while just to hear they’re actually out and he got back his money. Fine. mistakes happen, I’m there calming him down telling him it’s really not a big deal.

Here’s what REALLY pissed me off. I paid for the butterfly shrimp $11, along with a portion of fries which is written on the board as $3 additional. Collected my food & my mom’s and saw that I had no fries, and the shrimp was unbelievably tiny. The shrimp order came with fritters and 2 tiny tostones. I went back to them about the order of fries (kindly by the way) and had to sit and wait again as they took back the box. I went to check again & the elderly woman handed me the box back saying not a word. I checked the box and these petty, ridiculous and shameless people put literally a CHILD’s handful of fries in my box .. literally one tinyyy handful! My mom literally joked that they must of grabbed a little from someone else’s food box & threw it in mine. AND they took out the fritters and tostones away which by the way .. if you thought I only ordered shrimp, and those sides come with the shrimp.. and I paid ADDITIONAL money for an order of french fries… why would you take AWAY the sides that COME WITH the shrimp?! Foolish.

The seafood they give you has fritters as the sides automatically.. but no sense of customer service they took it all out & gave the tiniest “portion” of fries.

NEXT TIME! Will definitely be going to the other fish shop in Bodden Town where you actually get your money’s worth. So sad I was so upset I didn’t get a photo to post the “food” slops I was given.

Food is actually pretty good but portions are ridiculous for the price (way better options out there), and they need better customer service...

This business attempted to process my card, but claimed their machine did not produce a receipt. Despite this, the funds were deducted from my account, as confirmed by your customer service team at CNB. When I informed the business of this, they refused to acknowledge the successful payment and demanded that I pay again. After much back and forth, I chose not to proceed with the purchase and requested a letter from the business allowing for the release of the funds, which they also refused to provide. The owner said she wouldn’t speak to anyone at my bank or write any letters. She also refused to come in person to sort the issue out. In the end, we left without food and were not refunded. This is THEFT. Will never order from this place again.

Oh and here’s the kicker, apparently this happens all the time. I wonder how many tourists get ripped off by...
