We just wrapped up a week staying across the street from Alfresco.
The very first night we arrived our entire family was hangry and ready for a substantial meal without a long wait or a long drive. We literally wandered across the street and found this place and could not have been more happy.
Over the week we ate here four times and every single time the food was absolutely fantastic, the service top-notch and ridiculously friendly (witty and personable), and the ambiance cannot be beat. The sunsets here are the best- a view for dinner that absolutely cannot be beat.
Much of the menu has an Italian flair although they offer an Asian stir fry with vegetables, quesadillas as well as a hamburger meal. We pretty much ordered close to everything on the menu as a family of five throughout our various visits from pizza, fish & chips to seafood linguine.
As an added side note, if you are into picking up beach glass the beach directly in front of this restaurant is perfect for that sort of thing.
This is hands' down our favorite restaurant we tried on the island- absolutely worth the visit and I HIGHLY recommend. You will not be...
Read moreWe are so happy we found this place. It was not run over with tourists. It was a 2 to 1 mix if locals to tourists. Had a good atmosphere. We had 2 people helping our table. The first was a young woman on her first week. She was pleasant, friendly and still developing confidence. The second woman was obviously and old hand at this and was quick, efficient and no nonsense. They were both happy to accommodate, answer questions and make sure our needs were seen to promptly.
The food was wonderful. Wife thought hers a little salted, but I had the snapper with crusty mashed potatoes. Some of the best fish I have had in years. Great dish and will order again. All our sides were great.
Parking might be a bit of a squeeze in the little lot. You might need to park off the street. The inside is quaint, full of atmosphere. We ate outside on the patio that sits on the beach. Great location. Perfect view, you can catch the sunset here.
Wonderful place. I...
Read moreDisappointed. The service was horrible and the waitress was impolite/rude. It seemed she was new & didn't know the menu well. I couldn't understand 80% of what she said.
We ordered quasedilas for which they charge almost 9 dollar. It took ages to prepare. So this raised my expectations. Sadly the taste was bland and it looked like something I would make at home if I don't want to cook a proper meal. The only difference is I would never ever serve this to my guests. I won't even start about the fries...
Anyway, I wouldn't expect a meal like this in a restaurant.
On top of this there was a piece of a wood in the food. We told the waitress & they ignored. No apologies or whatsoever. Just a rude waitress who didn't know how to cope with the information in a professional way.
I was disappointed I didn't go to Westbay diner across the street. Better food, better service for a much...
