Fodor's Expert Review Equator Restaurant

Named after the ship that brought Robert Louis Stevenson to the South Pacific, the reasonably priced Equator Restaurant has a decidedly casual South Seas ambience. Inside the Tradewinds Hotel and popular with business travelers, the restaurant serves generous portions, with po'boy (Southern-style) shrimp sandwiches a favorite along with chicken quesadillas, the Hawaiian-style saimin (a Japanese-inspired noodle soup with fish cake, pork, and fried egg), and burgers. Whether you come for lunch or dinner, grab a pre- or post-meal drink and enjoy it by the pool under a tropical sky.
