We dined at L’Oasis and BZH, both in Oyster Pond Village. Both meals were fabulous, the epitome of why I love to eat at a French restaurant. The attention to small details and the sensation that can only be described as a flavor explosion in your mouth!
Sure the spots here are more casual than Grand Case, but the quality is on par and the price is far less. Coupled with less than a 10 minute drive and no parking issues, we haven’t bothered to go back to Grand Case at night for several years now.

I'll attest to the quality at those 2 restaurants, whether for fine dining or casual meals. And nearby is Mama Pizza.
I'm going where the weather suits my clothes.

I am not sure is still open was the place uphill from Captain Oliver’s which last I remember was Quai Ouest. Quai Quest was closed when we were on the island in October. BZH and l'Oasis are two of our favorites.

Sxm martini - alas Quai Ouest appears to be no more. It was one of our favorites.
Our first day we went over there to make a reservation and the amount of deterioration in the Captain Oliver complex since our last visit two years ago was heartbreaking. Nadia had her restaurant survive the hurricane only to have all paths into her establishment eventually make the derelict buildings at Mullett look like palaces in comparison.
The closest parking lot was always relatively secluded and dark at night, but we never felt unsafe. Now even in broad daylight this was an area that it was clear we didn’t belong. So sad.
