We were on a group travel experience to St. Lucia and the concierge booked us at Big Chef, which is in the main shopping area of Rodney Bay. We were the second table seated at 6:30 on a mid-March Tuesday night, and the restaurant was...fully seated by 7. Others from our group who had a 7 seating were seated at 6:40 waited over 1.5 hours for their entrees. Several tables had Happy Birthday balloons; this is evidently a special occasion treat. We saw the steak entrees and others from our group said they were tender and beautifully seasoned, particularly good with the optional add-ons like shrimp on top. We thoroughly enjoyed the Cajun shrimp and catch of the day. The Cajun shrimp were well seasoned but not hot, and the okra could best be described as fried okra fingers and the grits were super creamy. The 2 crab cakes (appetizer) were delicious, but know that they are coquette or hush puppy size, not biscuit size. This is a restaurant where presentation and cooked-to-order freshness is key, so plates come with food beautifully decorated and arranged. There was a piano player who sang who was wonderful. So, yes, very nice meal, but…”special occasion” priced and very loud inside and food can take a long time to be served. Two drinks (most on drinks menu were EC33), one crab cakes appetizer, one Cajun shrimp, one catch of the day cost EC 344.40, US $129.90 plus extra tip.More
