Fodor's Review:

The best lunches in town are served in this traditional West Indian house. Credit Allyson Hennessy—a Cordon Bleu-trained chef and local television celebrity—and her friendly, flamboyant sister and partner, Rosemary (Roses) Hezekiah. Despite Allyson's training, home cooking is the order of the day here. The creative creole menu changes regularly, but there's always an unusual and delicious vegetarian entrée. Veni's version of Trinidad's national dish, callaloo, is considered one of the best on the island. The chip chip (a small local clam) cocktail is deliciously piquant and is a restaurant rarity.

  • Keep in mind: Reservations essential.
  • Credit Cards: AE, MC, V
  • Closed: Closed weekends. No dinner Mon., Tues., or Thurs.
