What Diners Say 

The Fish Trap dinner experience is a memorable one. It's an engaging combination of casual atmosphere, friendly efficient staff, fabulous food, scrumptious desserts, and the magic of St. John. Our patrons love us! Many return often during their stay, and from year to year. With a loyal, happy following like this, the restaurant is mentioned again and again to family, friends, and neighbors. Here are some of the letters we've received from our satisfied customers. 

"We finally made it to the Fish Trap, with one regret-not going before now! Your restaurant is truly splendid! Bill had 'the best mahi he's ever had', as he put it. He didn't talk much, so he must have enjoyed it. I had escolar for the first time, loved it, and tried almost all of your sauces with it-fun and wonderful!
"Thank you for a dinner we'll always remember. And thank you for your kindness."

"Just want to let you know, on our second trip to St. John, (honeymooning this time) we enjoyed your restaurant AGAIN and AGAIN. The food was marvelous-great use of seasonings and always fresh. Also, and most importantly, your staff made us feel welcome and special among the throngs of tourists. This is a rare combination. Many thanks. Enjoy the holidays and we'll see you next time."

"While on vacation this past month, I was lucky enough to have the most wonderful meal at your establishment. I had the almond crusted tuna with fruit vinaigrette dressing, which I devoured in record time. Our waitress was nice enough to give me the recipe for the Coconut Cake with Caramel Rum Sauce�."
