The vacationers and mainland transplants who call St. John home like to flock to this alfresco spot for the congenial hospitality and good food.

The four- and six-course chef's tasting menu provides a nice sampling of the delicious food.

There's an unusual assortment of dishes at this charming alfresco restaurant, which you'll find tucked into a courtyard in the upper reaches of the Mongoose Junction shopping center. The Jamaican jerk chicken salad and the black-bean quesadilla are good choices. Kudos to the white pizza with artichoke hearts, roasted garlic, mozzarella cheese, and capers.

Creative takes on old standards coupled with lovely presentations draw crowds to this restaurant at Caneel Bay Resort. Start with crispy fried calamari served with a pesto mayonnaise. The chef dresses up roasted mahimahi with a pistachio crust and serves it with grilled polenta and a sweet pepper chutney. The slow-simmered osso buco comes with prosciutto-wrapped asparagus and saffron risotto. The sunset views will take your breath away.

This second-floor restaurant in the heart of Cruz Bay is the place for traditional Italian cuisine, so don't let the underwhelming ambience turn you away. The lasagna, spaghetti and meatballs, and seafood manicotti are all delicious, as are the small pizza—they're available at your table, but larger ones are for takeout or at the bar. This casual place can get crowded in winter, so show up early.

Sitting seaside at remote Friis Bay, Miss Lucy's dishes up Caribbean food with a contemporary flair, like tender conch fritters, spicy callaloo stew, fried local fish, and a generous paella with seafood, sausage, and chicken. Sunday brunches are legendary, and if you're around at the time, stop by for the monthly full-moon parties. The handful of small tables near the water are nicest, but if they're taken or the mosquitoes are swarming, the indoor tables do nicely.

A visit to this alfresco eatery requires you to climb a long flight of stairs, but the food is well worth the effort. Although fish is the specialty—try the voodoo snapper topped with a fruity salsa—the chef also creates a vegetarian platter with black beans, fried plantains, and a mound of sweet potatoes.

At this air-conditioned (but no-frills) sandwich shop you place your order at the counter and wait for it to be delivered to your table or for takeout. The classic Reuben is a favorite, but other sandwiches, like the turkey pesto and vegan Greek flatbread pita with hummus and veggies, also get rave reviews. For breakfast, try the brown sugar oatmeal or turkey hash with toast and eggs.

The sandwiches are scrumptious, but this deli also dishes up wonderful meals to-go that just need heating. There are a few seats inside, but most folks opt to eat at the tables in front of the deli. If the four-cheese lasagna with homemade marinara is on the menu, don't hesitate—it's a winner.

While you can get the usual chocolate and vanilla ice cream as well as smoothies at this tiny spot, owner Colette Rethage also dishes up frozen treats blended with alcoholic beverages. Try the champagne sorbet, espresso martini, peach margarita, or that tropical favorite, the rum-laced Painkiller. House-made waffle cones are not to miss.

Juicy ribs and tasty chicken legs dripping with house barbecue sauce make for one of St. John's best dining deals. An ear of corn, rice, and a generous scoop of macaroni salad, potato salad, or coleslaw round out the plate. This casual spot crowds the edge of a busy sidewalk in the heart of Cruz Bay. Even though there are a few open-air tables for "dining in," the ambience is more than a tad on the pedestrian side, so takeout is a better bet.

"Contemporary Caribbean" is how owner Michael Barry markets what's on his menu. The tamarind barbecue ribs with pickled mango slaw, jerk pork tenderloin porterhouse with grilled fresh pineapple, and mahimahi with a coconut-ginger sauce fit that description to a tee. Finish with a wedge of key lime pie.

Contemporary Asian cuisine dominates the menu at this elegant open-air eatery in an old St. John house. Start with the sesame-crusted goat cheese salad, then move on to entrées like applewood-smoked tenderloin with wasabi or pan-roasted cod with a red curry sauce. If you still have room for dessert, try the mimosa-poached pears with honey. Come early and relax over drinks while you enjoy the sunset lighting up the harbor.

In an odd combination that works well for Coral Bay visitors and residents, this tiny spot along the main road through Coral Bay sells tasty breakfasts and pizza. Breakfasts can be as ordinary or as innovative as you like, with the menu running from fried eggs with bacon to blueberry pancakes to scrambled tofu served with home fries. Pizzas are equally eclectic, with toppings that include everything from the usual pepperoni and mushrooms to more exotic corn, raisins, and kalamata olives.

Eat in or take out from this combo deli-restaurant where guests can sit on the front porch and enjoy a breakfast burrito or two-handed sandwich filled with the usual suspects of ham, roast beef, turkey, and tuna.
