    Dined at Madame Jeanette’s on 11/28. Food reviews were mixed. One filet cooked perfectly rare, second well done, both ordered the same. Asian sea bass was decent but not great. The two tuna appetizers were the best part of the meal. Restaurant is essentially outdoors with fans blowing. The wind was insignificant and where we sat, it was rather stifling temperature-wise. We did enjoy trying the many interesting beer options. Desserts were better than the food with the chocolate mousse the overall winner.

    We have been to this restaurant more than a few times. This experience fell short compared with the previous experiences. We have traveled all over the world and have tried a lot of great restaurants. We don’t mind paying the price for amazing food, but the food did not deliver as in the past. For that price level, we expected more. I ordered the lamb rack and they served it whole without slicing through it all the way. My knife would not cut through the back bone and I literally could not eat it. Trying to cut the rack I ended up almost losing it and splashed my husband’s shirt. Others were not floored with the filet either. Also, why stop the frozen drinks? Hire an extra bartender that can make the best piña coladas we had had on the island! Sad we couldn’t have it after looking forward to it all week. Overall, it will be dropping off our list, sadly.

    My wife and I had a wonderful time. Top-tier dining experience with subtle and pleasant live music (steel drum.). Entirely worth going a little out of the way for. Cab service was a breeze, too.

    Food is mediocre. This restaurant caters to Americans with their oversized portions.
