ABOUT THESE CROWNS
The 1–5 crown score reproduces the named source’s displayed customer average, rounded to one decimal; source rounding is retained. It is not our firsthand restaurant visit. Comments summarize the visible sample, not every review. We do not combine overlapping review pools or treat retailer ratings as directly comparable across all products. Ratings can change.

Paid features are labeled Sponsored; payment does not alter the crown score. At least 30 customer reviews are required for a rating.
SECOND-SOURCE CHECK
The MICHELIN Guide independently describes Caribbean cooking in an energetic room around an open kitchen. Its inspectors highlight roti, seafood and a coconut dessert. This professional assessment supplies context without changing the customer score.
