Harbor Queen had good ribs. Can't remember if it's still open or not. Someone said it was closed and someone else said it was still open??? Also check out Captain D's, if it's still there. Right by the new parking lot beside Royal Palm. Ribs and chicken, etc., etc., carryout. Good stuff, huge portions for a good price!

If you don't mind driving just a little, Mark's Place has decent ribs and served from a "snack" portion to "all you can eat".

I have had ribs in a few places along the Simpson Bay strip, but none as good as The Palms. I have yet to try the stand that is close to Royal Palm, wanted to but never did end up trying them.
I prefer the Isle seat

BBB has reasonable ribs...and $2 Carib 5-7p (just came back from there). We were going to go to Lee's but monsoons stopped us short....impressive H2O right now

I think someone mentioned french fries at Lee's and feeding the leftovers to the tarpon that hang around there.
Personally, not a fan of Lee's ribs or the cooking method used there.

I wonder if the person has a lease/rent agreement for that area or if he is just expanding on his own?

Todd said: I have had ribs in a few places along the Simpson Bay strip, but none as good as The Palms. I have yet to try the stand that is close to Royal Palm, wanted to but never did end up trying them. Sounds like a carry-out, grab a bottle or three of wine, and head back to one or the other of our balconies to catch the sunset before dinner. Your balcony is bigger if I recall correctly.

OK. I saw that there is still an issue with the watersports place there, so I guess that's why the parking lot still isn't finished. 4 picnic tables is a lot more than they used to have..

The owner (?) had something going on facebook to garner support for his business being in that location. He had a rather lengthy video from what I recall and was ragging on the SXM government since he was a citizen. I have no idea if there are permits involved, etc. but to throw a grill in a vacant/unused lot and then expand with tables should raise some questions.

I stated that I had no idea what he did or if there were permits involved with regards to the grill and tables. I did find his rant from facebook. Not sure exactly which you are referring to.
In a way it reminds me of Lee's years ago. Very small place with a bar and a few tables. Look at that situation now and what he is facing.

IMO it's Lee's and Capt. D"s, both wonderful. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/dine.gif" alt="" />

SXMScubaman said: I tried those drunken ribs. Wasn't impressed. Never personally tried them but the one time I asked about them I believe the owner said they were spare ribs versus baby back ribs? Anyone know for sure on the actual type of rib for the drunken ribs at The Palms?

Where is the 'new' Harry's located? He used to serve an incredible grilled lobster! Wondering if his new place does the same kind of dinners, if anyone knows........info would be appreciated,...

Pat-see this thread as to the location. Don't know about the lobster question. Would be interested in hearing that answer also.
