I had read the reviews about Billy Joe's and wanted to experience the fresh made conch salad. I like dives and this one was a real treat since it was right next to the Radisson where we stayed. As a dive the restaurant did not disappoint me but the views of the water and the service were welcome surprises. I... more

I have been to Lucaya several times, and always make it to Billy Joe's. My only complaint is that as it becomes more popular, more spring breakers go there and ruin the experience. When I first found it, nobody but locals and a very few adventurous types from the resort ate there. All things Conch are what you want to... more

After reading the reviews here we decided to give Billy Joes a try. We were NOT disappointed. Billy Joe's a taste of the real Bahamas. Most of the restaurants in the area are what I think of as "Disney-fied" - a.k.a. someone else's version of what the Bahamas should be (just a little too perfect). Billy Joe's is what the... more

We stayed at the Westin and someone gave us a tip to try Billy Joe's - what a great tip! We had lunch twice and loved it. You've got to try the conch salad. We also had the conch burger (ok) and conch fritters (great). It looks like a shack but it's right on the beach and the food is... more

Ate there twice on our stay. Billy Joe himself was there both days. We had a great time. The setting is beautiful, and the food is very good. One of the best pina coladas (virgin) on the island. Located right next to the Sheraton, but if you are staying at the Westin like we were, It is a nice 5-10... more

Great people, great view, good prices for Freeport! Get the conch salad and a beer and kick back. As for the fellow who ordered a hamburger at BJ's and was disappointed...a hamburger at a conch shack, what did you expect? more

A group of 14 of us went to "hang loose" with Billy Joe and we had such a great time! This is an authentic beachside place where the locals go. We really enjoyed just hanging out and relaxing and grooving to the island sounds of Big John. I had the Grouper and was not impressed, however, everybody else who had... more
