WOKAME OH MOMMIE!! This gem hidden in a courtyard one block from the boardwalk is going to be a find your not going to forget! The menu is full of flavor combinations that will leave you wanting more and double check what you ordered. We started with the conch balls and lollypop lamb chops. Both dishes can be found on island but these are second to none. The lollypops come out on a sizzling platter in a demi-glace that is rich and smooth with the fresh mint leaves melting in the sizzling sauce. WHOSE Mother can I slap?? As if that’s not enough , the app size is 4 chops and not pencil thin so fill er up! Conch balls have nice large pieces of conch that are tender with a crunchy outside and an aioli that seals the deal. But wait, theres more! Entrees were rolls, we tempura’d both of them. One was the Mofongo roll special, just OUTSTANDING, asked how it tasted and mouth watering prevented description, plate was clean so he didn’t hate it. I had the Red Dragon with tempura shrimp, tuna, avacado, spring onion, cucumbers and spicy mayo. Want another one right now as I write this! This is a young Chef Jamal who puts out food with fresh, clean and exciting flavors and love & does it in the casual world of a St. Croix tropical courtyard. Wokame is highly recommended, enjoy your eating experience with these talented people who are putting themselves into your dining experience...
Read moreThe first time that I visited this restaurant was last year for my birthday and while we called ahead and made a reservation and arrived on time for that reservation our table was not ready, and they had to squeeze two tables together to accommodate us. Fine. After ordering, when we arrived a bit after 7, We did not receive our food until almost 9pm.
Fast forward to today 7-9-25, my friend and I ordered lunch and specifically asked that our rolls not be tempura, they were anyway, when we called to get some sort of solution to rectify the order we were told very rudely by one of the employees that we would need to bring the incorrect roll back and PAY for ANOTHER roll, she proceeded to tell us that we should be more specific about what we wanted next time (although we were). She was very rude and unprofessional and quite combative on the phone. Chef Jamal is quite talented and hopefully he can meet with his staff and have them do more de-escalation training as it pertains to dealing with patrons, this experience unfortunately after my first experience dining in made it worst, and although it may not make a difference in revenue as a local it is quite...
Read moreMy husband and I got there at 6:45 at 8 o’clock. We still did not have our food. Bartender served me a glass of wine. The bartender was very nice and there’s also a really nice waitress there that we love when we go. I explained to the bartender that her wine had turned. I’m a wine drinker. I just got a glass there last week, but she said they change the brand. It was terrible The wine was bad ….sitting there for an hour and 15 minutes they went and checked in the kitchen and they said it would be another 15 minutes did not drink my wine. The bartender gave me some reason why we weren’t getting our food. I really don’t care there’s no reason for it, they were not busy. Other people got fed before us … the kicker is still charge me for a glass of wine. I did not drink $14.56. What a joke and what a shame because I had Alfredo last week and it was good also waited an hour then, but the waitress told me it would be a while before we got our food, and the place was busy at that time. Very disappointing …someone needs to wake up. probably won’t be back definitely need some management...
