Same here only closer to 20+ years before eating there and now I would not miss it. Had two meals there on the past 2 week trip.

I went there for the beer, fell in love with the place and now also get a meal or two there besides my stops to get a beer. Fantastic place, and fun on Friday nights at the outside bar.
Cheers,
I prefer the Isle seat

Tom said: In conversation with owner, I asked how long had they been there. She said, 22 years. Bavaria is the oldest restaurant still in business on the Dutch side. Marty's is second. That says a lot about both places!

Annette (from what I recall) is the female half of the ownership. I thought slightly more than 22 years also as I thought she told me 23 years 2-3 years ago.
I know it took me 20+ years to try them. Took some SXM veterans there this year and they enjoyed their first visit also.

L'Escargot Restaurant is more than 40 years old. I doubt if either of the prior named establishments approach that age. But, does it really matter, all are fine establishments.

Perhaps the other references are in regard to being in Simpson Bay and not the entire Dutch side?

Georgia,
I'm going to chime in on this one also. I believe there are many restaurants older than the two you've cited.
We've been going to Marks since the 80's as well as Pasanggrahan Restaurant and definitely Antoine's and these are but a few that would be well over the 22 year mark. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" />

Our first visit to SXM was in 1993. Stayed at Pelican and would bet that it was there then. We drove by it often enough. Can't believe that the first time we went there was 2014. Seems like lots of people have made the same mistake!!

No problem and I pretty much assumed that was probably what was intended just based on our personal older knowledge of the island. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" />

Pat should know, she's been going so long she might have greeted the original settlers. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/jester.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/jester.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/jester.gif" alt="" />

It was like I was being pitched a softball, I had to swing for the stands. Hopefully, no harm - no foul.
Enjoy the rest of your trip.

Actually, it's still there, just doesn't serve German food any more! It's called Paradise View now and they have crepes there now. We went there a few times years ago when they had German food and really enjoyed it.
