Looking for a place to eat dinner, at say 5 PM in Grand Case, on our arrival day from the US. The lolos I guess are open all day, but I wonder if their stuff will be dried up at that time. I know there is a small pizzeria there. I wonder what their hours are. This would be on a Wednesday, if that makes any difference. If there's not a good option in Grand Case, what about Orient? Not looking to spend a lot of money, just something filling after getting up in the middle of the night and the rigors of travel.

Food is always dried up at the lolo's by late afternoon. But they will happily microwave it for you.

bran--NO, definitely do not want to waste the money the first night on a great meal. We will be dead dog tired, from getting up in the middle of the night to catch the plane. Regardless, I know they don't open until at least 6, probably 6:30.
pandp--thanks for the suggestion.
Anyone know what time the pizza place opens in Grand Case? I'm thinking they may be open for lunch and stay open?

Go to the hotel next to the rainbow Les Temp De Cherise. They have small bar and restaurant with a great view. Any chance it is this place? LINK

Buddy--looks way expensive for what I'm looking for, for the first night. We are staying at a villa just above Grand Case, should be arriving, if the stars align correctly, around 3:30, if not before. Want to dump the bags and head out for an early inexpensive dinner and an early bedtime!! Yellow Sub would be good, but still wondering about the pizza place in Grand Case. No one here has been there??

Kim--yes, I think so, but apparently no one here has been to that pizza place. I am still interested in it though.

I hate when I hear a microwave door slam at a restaurant.

BeachKitten I was thinking the same. Rancho del Sol. We've had their pizza in the past and it was really good. Plus they open for lunch so they should be open for an early dinner.

I don't know if Rancho delivers anymore, but we did have them deliver to GCBC some time back, in the event one wants to eat in.

I was thinking since I know they are open for lunch, they would still be open when you arrive.... That may be a quick and easy option. OR, have Jeannie deliver things to the villa and maybe some pre-made items? Sammiches?

Thanks everyone. We may try Rancho, but would probably go there if we do. The last time we went there, which was YEARS ago, I wasn't that impressed. We will probably go to Hope Market and get some things, so may just get something to take back to the 'house' to have. I figure we will be dead on our feet but we'll see. Regardless, we'll be in SXM so it can hardly be bad!!

You ask for a place in Grand Case, right? Why not stop in Marigot on your way. Near the ferry dock is a place called Rosemary's (near the walkway to the market sellers) whole meal of snapper, rice, salad for around $14. Very filling, tasty and inexpensive.
I mentioned La Villa because it isn't as expensive as the other places in GC. I would suggest NICE on the water side but I'm not sure when they open up. They're less $$ than other places. I don't think they would want to risk stopping with luggage in their car for a dinner. Carol stated she wanted to check in, drop luggage off before getting something to eat.
