Cafe Concordia — Restaurant in Saint John

If you love pretense-do not come here. If you expect 5 Star dining, this is not the place. If you like elegant fine dining with white linen, go to Cruz Bay or Zozo’s. (I love Zozo’s btw)! If you like stress, hustle and bustle and attitude-do not come here. Hello, People? This is a restaurant located at the long time Concordia Eco-Resort. It’s located at the most remote part of St John. Concordia is the Sister Eco-Resort to the original Maho Bay Campground Eco-Resort (now closed) that started in the early 70’s. This is the type of location/place that you go to primarily because you love the expansive, stunning natural, undeveloped and unstressful part of St. John. It’s the type of place that you go to unwind, slow down and drink in nature. Do not come here if you’re in a hurry and expect to get in and out quickly. Take several deep breaths, look around and chill. Sunsets are gorgeous. Their huge deck faces South, overlooking Ram Head and Salt Pond Bay. Stunning! Most of the deck has an awning. They serve mixed drinks. The location has an “At the end of the Earth” feel to it. That’s why I’ve been coming here for 25 years). The food is good. The menu is somewhat limited. They offer a couple of appetizers and 2-3 entrees. (At least at the time of writing this (February 2025). The conch fritters and the garlic shrimp appetizers were delicious. The jerk rub chicken and the salmon were scrumptious. Wayne, our server was super friendly, efficient and helpful. I’m quite certain that the hours listed here on Google are incorrect. They serve breakfast at 8 o’clock, lunch and dinner, 7 days a week. They do not take reservations. You just show up. Enjoy the slow, winding (and windy) drive down here from Coral...

This amazing location was the perfect stop after a morning hike to Ram Head. Please support the owner. We are from Delaware and we asked around in Coral and Cruz Bay, we heard stories about an ownership split with one co-owner running away with the money and the remaining guy, who we assume waited on us, is trying to make things work. I think the one start review is probably from the guy who took the money and it should be taken down. The view itself makes any review below 4 stars fake. But the omelet and magical beet/ginger/lemon drink were excellent. People on the island should be patronizing this restaurant to...

I notice that most of these reviews are old. Probably when under different ownership. Well, we went tonight (1/31/25). It was a major let down. Nothing was a positive. Price, food, selection, portion size, and service. Nicest people in the world but they shouldn’t be in the restaurant biz. I REALLY wanted it to be good because there’s nothing else on this far end of the island....
