Fodor's Expert Review Habaneros

The most expensive dining spot on Caye Caulker, Haberneros is also a place that tends to generate mixed reactions: One diner goes ga-ga over the coconut encrusted snapper with "fruit compound butter" and loves the dramatic lighting, while another guest sniffs at the pork topped with crab and thinks the restaurant is too dark. Chef-owner Darren Casson hits for the fences with some of his dishes, and he doesn't always connect, with too many competing flavors and over-the-top presentations, but for a splurge on Caye Caulker this is your most interesting, if conflicted, choice. Know that with drinks, appetizers, dessert, tip, and taxes (Haberneros doesn't include the 12.5% GST in the menu price), you'll face a hefty check, at least for Caye Caulker. And you could be one of those who just don't care for Habaneros.
