Ads trumpet that this restaurant as "where the islanders dine." Indeed they have since the Robinson family started selling takeout from their kitchen in 1965. This favorite overlooks a garden with a cheery tropic motif. The West Indies breakfast and themed lunch buffets are legendary spreads. Local food (curried goat, oxtail with broad beans, turtle soup, and heavy cake) is authentic, hearty, and cheap. Pricier global dishes range from fine Indian vegetarian options like samosas and masala dal (lentils simmered with green chilies) to Eisenhower-era standards like bacon-wrapped filet mignon in red wine sauce and scallops braised with sweet peppers in brandy.
