This was a good restaurant within a short walk of the Marriott. I felt safe walking there (with others) and the food was very good.

After some bad restaurant choices, we finally settled on Rock Lobster for our last night in St. Kitts. Best decision we made!! Actually had service, nice atmosphere and staff that seemed happy that we had chosen their restaurant. That being said, the prices are a little higher than beach restaurants, but all food is HIGH in St. Kitts. The quality... More

Fast service because, (in my opinion) they precook the lobster platter which causes it to be on the tough side. Generous portions though.

Very small restaurant a few blocks away from the Marriott. Excellent food, service was wonderful and staff so friendly and nice. Has the AAA approval rate and certainly lived up to it. Reasonable for what you get.

I live on St. Kitts and eat here often as it is one of my favorite restaurants on the island. The menu is diverse and I have never had a disappointing meal here. The staff is lovely, friendly and competent. Reservations are accepted but the owner is very accomodating. I highly recommend Rock Lobster if you ever visit the island!

Rock Lobster is one of the "locals" restaurants. Although the evening we ate there, we didn't really see any locals. My group all chose to order the lobster off the menu even though there were other seafood items available. You could get your lobster grilled, broiled or steamed. Most of us ordered either grilled or steamed. The portion size of... More

Disappointed in the tough, dry lobster. Maybe that's how rock lobster is supposed to be, I don't know. The piña colada was great, the veggies great, and the French onion soup was very good . The atmosphere very relaxed and casual, outdoors. No bugs! Three college girls sat near us and were loud and sort of obnoxious, using the "f"... More
