So many choices and so many different tastes in dining.....we don't do GC dining too much these days but we enjoyed Il Nettuna and the Sunset Cafe at GCBC last year.

For great lunches and tapas, we thoroughly enjoyed the restaurant at Loterie Farm and for an off-beat and inexpensive dinner, Gutside near Friars Baie is fun.

That said, in Maho we really thoroughly enjoy Le Moulin Fou and would rate it about the top of our list in that area.

In Philipsburg, our favorite has always been Antoine's by the Sea and that hasn't changed but our plan B in town is usually Chesterfields.

In the Simpson/Cole Bay areas we really liked Luna Rosa and thought it to be about the best Italian food we've had on the island in years, and you can't go wrong with Skip Jacks for any of their choices, but particularly the seafood choices.

And if it's opened by now, Marios at Porto Cupecoy is a great option.

For beach dining, the Restaurant at Anse Marcel and Dreams are both excellent choices and our favorite, Friars Bay Beach Cafe is a must-do every year. Dreams, on the evenings it's open, is an excellent dinner choice, too.

And for cheap beach eats, we really love the ribs at Rosies on Mullet Bay.

Less expensive dinner options would include Marks at the roundabout by Grande Marche, Lee's in Simpson Bay along with the Greenhouse in either location, and in the past, Figs but I have no idea if they've upped the ante with their relocation to the Maho area. If you enjoy German food you have to try Bavaria........OMG - the strudel is out of this world.

Our choice breakfast stops are SBYC by the bridge, Chesterfields or the Barefoot Cafe in Pholipsberg, and we enjoyed our breakfasts at SSB&G in April along with Tortuga on the other side of the beach at Maho.

There are so many awesome places to dine across the island and honestly, in 43 years of at least once a year trips, we've NEVER had a bad meal on St. Martin.......not one! And I don't know how anyone can limit themselves to ten only..... <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" />
