Lunch At Astra

Lunch At Astra - 05/24/2022 07:10 PM

A first for us. Wanted to try Astra and thought the lunch menu was more reasonably priced than the dinner. They advertised free range lobster for $19.99 per pound which was the best price I saw on the island. I didn't know what a free range lobster was but I found out. They have a large water pit next to the Lagoon where the lobster roam freely. So I picked out my almost 4 pounder while the wife ordered the snapper catch of the day. Both meals were very good. We were the only ones there for lunch so we got the best table in the house.

Wow, that's kind of disconcerting, dining all by yourself like that! We ate there one time for dinner and there were not a lot of people there when we were there either. Not sure if they are going to make it, as the rent for that place has to be huge..

The water in that pen was actually quite clear. It looked a lot better than my pond that I eat fish out of regularly.

We had drinks one night and dinner another. Very nice ambience. Food was ok. Staff was friendly and engaging. I don’t remember the price for lobster but definitely was a lot more than what lunch price is otherwise I would have ordered it.

The price for lobster was listed on the sign outside so I assume it is the same for lunch and dinner.
