Sit outside on a sunny morning and feast on the best pastries on the island, sipping espresso. A wonderful vacation indulgence! More

We have been going to Zee Best at least once a trip for the past 5 years. The Simpson Bay location restaurant is okay. Our favorite waitress there is Trish. She is great and very friendly!

The food is good, no question. But, there is no views to be had and they don't take credit cards. For the same fare, you can go to a place that does have a great view, and does take credit cards. I must admit, though, their pastry is truly French and truly ZEE beest! More

Don't trust $ price sign here or other guide - the place is not the cheapest place on the island as you might be led to believe. Yes - some entree's prices are ok, but the place will nickel and dime you - small cup of very average (american) coffee is $5 Crepe my wife ordered were rubbery abd think... More
