Hi Pia!

When did the change from La Plancha to Gastro Grub occur? We were just there less than a month ago and went to La Plancha. (If thats the one at Mongoose directly over the Bougainvilla Shop)
We found it to be just 'ok'. Not nearly as good as last trip.

Wait a minute you get to have a wonderful lunch while hubby is doing all that marvelous construction. The least you can do is bring him home a doggy bag



by the way my wife and I both love the tile you chose for the showers.

We ate at the Gastro Grub in November, it was great! The meatloaf wellington was a great twist on an old classic.

Another vote for Gastro Grub. My husband loved the beef Wellington also. The owner, Alan is super nice. This place is off the beaten path so don't forget about it.

We also tried Island Blues. The food was a pleasant surprise. We had a spicy Edamame, Thai wings and a soft noodle dish. All were great!

We're still on island and loving every minute of it.

Wow ,liking the reviews so far ! Will defintely check it out . Hi Nancy, Lucky you on island !your seeing BLU & we R seeing WHITE!!!UGH! will ya be there in the spring ? we are going a lil later than usual in May hopefully our paths will cross May you have a Funtastic rest of trip !!!! ~Happy 2012~

So where is it again? Thanks!

Upstairs at the Marketplace (above Starfish market) We went opening weekend in September and absolutely loved it! The mac and cheese is amazing and the meatloaf wellington! YUM!

Hi Pia!

I like the look of the menu. Is it ok to post it here? What have you sampled? Love "Some kind of fish" special!



I'm also looking forward to La Plancha in the old Paradiso site. I always loved that space.

Thanks Pia for the recommendation.

We ate here tonight and enjoyed it very much. My husband loved the meatloaf wellington. I must admit I stole a few bites. I had the fish special of red snapper blt with mango sause. I liked the fish but the sauce was just ok.

We had the prezel appetizer and enjoyed the dipping sauces.

We sat at the bar and enjoyed talking to the owner.

Had some great drinks the people around us had dirty pickle martini and raved about them.

We were to full for dessert but the fluffer nutella looked yummy!

It is still cash only.

Word on the street is that they will be closing thier doors shortly. Happy Fish also is shutting down this week.

Alan confirmed that rumor on FB a few minutes ago. Such a shame that talented locals can;t afford rent, etc to be able to have a successful business.

I am so bummed! I was really looking forward to trying both Happy Fish and Gastro Grub in February. We were there last January and I don't think either of these restraunts were open then. Such a shame they will be closed at high season. Did I say I'm bummed?
