Set along the marina, it's a quick walk if you're staying at the lovely Balcons d'Oyster Pond. I'd read the prior reviews and expected the service to be a little gruff and slow. It wasn't. We were seated quickly and pleasantly enough by the owner/server, even though it was a little busy. A chalkboard presently the daily specials in French... More

Nice couple runs and owns the place. Menu changes daily and is written on a chalkboard. We spoke no French and had no problems. The owner understood us and our service was quick but the restaurant was not crowded. Very nice private setting. Food was good.

Last evening on the island, decided to try Quai Ouest (west wharf) on the french side of Oyster Pond. Tucked in behind Captain Oliver's, it is a cozy, romantic spot. The family run place was wonderful, in fact, my favorite spot of the 5 or 6 we visited. We had the Camenbert appetizer, which came warm and gooey with toast... More

Went to Quai Ouest for the first time after our parents discovered it last year. A great open air restaurant, casual atmosphere and right on the marina. Food was fantastic, service a little slow but it gives you some time to chat and enjoy the atmosphere. Will definitely be going back :) Being a french speaker would be beneficial but... More

My wife and I stayed in Oyster Pond for a week in January 2013. Two things motivated my wife and I to go down to Quai Ouest for dinner. One was the recommendation of the manager of the hotel we stayed at. This lady is French and she knows good French food, and where to find it on the Island.... More

Very good French cuisine in a lovely "open air" restaurant ! Fresh an and "home made" food.

Try the fantastic tuna and ginger or the "foie... More
