Plating was beautiful but the food itself was below average. Fish tacos only had crumbles of fish in them and even with the slaw they were only 1/3 filled. And why wouldn't they toast the tortillas? Or at least heat them up?

Loved this place! Had lunch while in town with a cruise. The lion fish was amazing! Expertly prepared with great flavors. Just needed smaller portions so we could have had room for dessert. I would have taken a whole pie back to the ship if I could. Service was terrific! Atmosphere was elegant yet comfortable. Hope to come back soon.

Incredible food! We were almost shocked how good the food was. These people know how to cook. Large portion sizes and amazing quality. Beautiful atmosphere with a candle and very nice furniture. They even provide a back pillow for the bench seats. We had the piccata chicken and the garlic bread. I want to go back and try more dishes.

Rolled into The Twisted Cork Cafe (TTCC) for dinner on our first night in St. Thomas. After a long day of travel, a small flight delay, really buffeting winds aloft… we were ready for a very relaxed, enjoyable dinner, with a good bottle of wine! We had not made a reservation for dinner due all the unforeseeable things that can happen on a long travel day. We looked for a highly rated place within walking distance of our hotel, and viola, TTCC popped up. So glad the online reviewers were on point for this place. Totally laid back place, not at all crowded on a Friday evening at dinner time… fantastic service and fare included! TTCC is not a big place, seating in a front bar area and a more traditional dining room in the back. We were initially seated in the back dining room, but with multiple AC units pumping the room with cold air, we opted for the less chilly front room… we had that room to ourselves the entire meal! The back room got pretty crowded as the evening wore on, but TTCC was able to easily able to accommodate the walk-ins. Most of the tables have a small, but real, oil lamp on them… very cute, nice touch! Service was great, attentive but not intrusive. In the spirit of the islands we started with a shared rum punch. We anticipated the sweetness, no surprise there, it was darn good. We figured we’d be having fresh seafood, so we opted for a Folonari Pinot Grigio, which was presented at the perfect temperature, and paired very well with the food we ordered. TTCC is more of a wine bar, the wine list, while not exhaustive, is a thoughtful collection of the primary varietals from the old and new worlds, with a nice little selection of bubbles if you want that. First up was a nightly special, Caribbean Seafood Chowder (think cioppino in Northern CA, Phil’s Fish Market in Castroville, CA, has killer ciopinno… if you visit, you can by a T-shirt with the recipe on it, to make it at home… it’s a day’s work, but worth it!). The TTCC chowder was full of a variety of fresh seafood, a tomato-based soup with lots of fresh veggies and wonderfully spiced. TTCC has an onsite herb and vegetable garden where many of their ingredients originate! Delish chowder! For entrees we decided to share the lionfish piccata and the fried grouper sandwich. The lionfish was firm, tender and plentiful. A very generous portion, fried to perfection, served with rice and fresh broccoli. The piccata sauce was wonderful. The grouper sandwich was equally good. Another generous portion of fish, lighted battered, fried to crispy, served on French bread with a little mayo, a few capers, thinly sliced red onion and romaine lettuce… heaven on a bun! The side of duck fat fried pomme frites was amazing! Served piping hot (as ordered) served with truffle aioli… amazing! Next up dessert! Based on prior reviewer comments, there was only one dessert to get… ballpark pie! The huge piece of pie features all your memories from the ballpark … peanut butter mousse on a graham cracker-pretzel crust. Topped with chocolate ganache, peanuts, whipped cream, caramel and chocolate sauces and cracker jacks. What an ending to an awesome meal! Not sure we’ll have time to dine at TTC.C again during our short visit on the island, but we’d definitely go back! They’re open for lunch and dinner Mon-Thurs, closed Sat and Sun. Highly recommend The Twisted Cork Cafe.

My fiancé & I googled places to eat on our vacation and this restaurant did not disappoint. Everything we had was delicious. His steak was cooked & seasoned to perfection. We were way to full for dessert but look forward to going back and saving room for it because they all looked amazing!

We had a wonderful dinner here - the portions were massive (almost unnecessarily so), flavors and textures were incredible, and it was a wonderful way to end our trip. Highlight for me was the salmon risotto, hands down. The salmon was cooked to perfection - still soft and practically melt in your mouth in the center. The risotto was not too overpowering. And I loved the onion crisps - the crunchiness balanced out the dish.

We went twice it was so amazing! I had lamb chops both times, they were too good to pass up (special). My wife had a fried grouper Sammy and a pan fried snapper (special) which were both phenomenal too! Garlic bread was tasty and the chocolate torte was lava cake like and delectable. I don t think you can go wrong with anything here. Service was amazingly friendly too. Only open M-F for limited hours, make sure to stop in!

Thank you immensely for such a profoundly decadent/pleasurable experience. Nevertheless, I visited the establishment, courtesy of my significant other as a blank canvas. Every item I indulged in sent my endorphins into a welcome frenzy inducing food euphoria. Im still basking in my entrée and dessert meal inebriation. Hence, I would like to extend the utmost highest accolades to Bethy and the Twisted Cork team inclusive of the chef that crafted my cooked vegetable entrée for with homespun/house made fries, topped off with literally the quintessential flourless chocolate torte that warrants 10 stars on a scale of 5. What. A. Pleasant. Surprise that knocked me down in an utmost complimentary way. Needless to say, Im spreading the word and looking forward to returning.

We stopped here while on a cruise. I booked 2 adults and 2 kids a couple months prior to going. I pictured a place on a hillside overlooking the water. It wasnt that but it was EXCELLENT! Mary and Marga were our waitress and were outstanding. We were literally the only non locals in this place. The food was fresh and so good. We had the Buffalo shrimp which was a hit for everyone. Then the grouper...having been a Florida resident for many years, I cant recall having grouper that good. Mary even called a taxi for us as we walked from the ship, only 1.4 miles but it was hot. If we lived here, wed be regulars. Thank you Mary and Marga for being so awesome!

We originally didnt have an intention of stopping in, but the circumstance of a previous failed outing brought us to Twisted Cork. We got in early at about 6 pm and the place was really lovely. Our wait staff were extremely genuine and welcoming. We got to exchange stories and origin to some of the staff and had a few laughs. My girlfriend had the burger, which came with bacon jam, and it is apparently one of the best burgers shes ever had. I ordered the lionfish basket, which was also very good, and unfortunately, my eyes were bigger than my stomach. Im also one of the few people who seem to enjoy coleslaw, and Im telling you, their coleslaw is the best on the island by far.

Great food and wine selection. Rustic decor is a change of pace to the typical island seaside style. We had the stuffed mushrooms, Caesar salad and sea bass. We split everything and the salad and main were served split plate - a nice touch. All were delicious. Service was attentive despite the busy night. Wine selection is broad with reasonable prices.

My family and I were on our way to Red Hook when an accident forced us towards the Downtown area. Having been turned away from nearly 5 restaurants and 3 cab rides later we ended up at the Twisted Cork. This place is outstanding. Im from New York and know good food. Best Garlic Bread I have ever had. Calamari is wonderful and what a burger. It truly is tough to find a great burger these days but look no further. The Twisted Cork also has a homey atmosphere with wonderful staff who walk you through the menu. Its hard to find places these days with great food, great service, a great ambience, and wonderful people. Please try the Twisted Cork. I promise it is worth it!!!

TLDR: You absolutely MUST visit here for phenomenal food. Now for the details: Everything we ordered was made to perfection. The prices were very fair. The staff was very kind and they were killing it in the dining / bar area. The calamari -first time that Ive ever had it where every single bite is cooked perfect... Not even the smaller pieces were overcooked and the pineapple sauce was delicious The lion fish picatta may have been one of the best dishes Ive ever experienced... Im telling you! light & fluffy, perfectly crusted fish. Never had anything better. We had the pleasure to meet the owner Jason as well. The man is a stellar person!! Made the trip there that much more enjoyable! I cant express enough how much I recommend The twisted cork cafe. You MUST visit if youre on St Thomas.

Very nice and down to earth guy who was very interested in his customers. All four courses were excellent. The wine he recommended was a great match for the food too. Edit: My GF and I went back and had dinner there a second time because it was really just that good. The Rib Eye special was about as good as it gets. The calamari was great, with and without the sauce, and that s coming from someone raised on NY Italian food. We each had cæser salads both nights, they were large enough to split but good enough to want your own. And finally the limoncello (NY Style) cheesecake was about as good as cheesecake gets. Best NY/East-coast Style Italian food I ve had outside of NY.

There is definitely a trend of vacation optimism in the rating of this restaurant. Although it is conveniently located and food was decent the service is far from stellar. Our server was condescending and belittling of my wife when she voiced appropriate displeasure regarding her dish that was not seasoned and wholly misrepresented by the menu. My wife had the salmon that was cooked well but lacked any resemblance of seasoning. The chevre risotto was actually over cooked long grain white rice with a hint of supermarket goat cheese. I asked our server for the chef to select and prepare a meal of their choosing. I often do this to get the true sense of a restaurant and allow them to shine. Our server apparently did not discuss this with the chef at all and merely took it upon herself to order the most expensive thing on the menu. Earlier in the day we had far better food out of styrofoam containers just across the bay from this location. I dont mind spending good money on good food but this experience was found lacking in every way.

Absolutely AMAZING. Walking in the door the ambiance and decor is relaxing and chic. The music is a nice mix of jazz and indie/acoustic. Very fitting and relaxing as well. Service from Marga was SUPERIOR. Friendly, knowledgeable, kind, just truly a great experience in the front of house. We actually had to ask if she was the owner because of how amazing she is but she kindly told us no- that wasnt her... but it was the chef who prepared our food!!! We got the burger and the turkey club. The fries were addictive beyond reason. The burger was juicy, savory, a slight sweetness from the bacon jam, and a nice funk from the selected cambozola cheese. The turkey club was outstanding! Everything worked perfectly. The bacon jam, smoked gouda, perfectly toasted bread, its what happens when everything is right in the world.

NOT SURE WHY THIS PLACE IS RANKED SO HIGH OVERALL.. I am confused:( There are many restaurants in St Thomas to choose from. Please save yourself a car ride, a taxi, and your money. DO NOT GO HERE! Here are the reasons this place was horrible: 1) our original server was slow. She started out as our server and then the bartender took over our table. It took forever for original server to take our drink and food order. Annoying because the restaurant was not busy. The original server came to our table twice and didn t ask how our food. She must have known the food was horrible. the Bartender was very sweet and nice 2) I ordered the special grouper bites as an appetizer. They were cold and chewy when delivered to our table . I am pretty sure they were not fresh, warmed up in the microwave , then left out for a long time before they were finally delivered to our table. 3) the reviews on TripAdvisor rave about their Chicken liver bites. Those were hot when delivered, but had no flavor and tasted like oil with hot sauce in top. I am not sure why these have such a high ranking. I am so confused. You could ve gotten better fried livers from Chili s or Applebee s for half the price. 4) my husbands dish was also horrible and lacked flavor. 5) our bill was $145 for cold grouper bites, mediocre chicken liver, okay fries, 2 glasses of wine, and a meh fish entree, and gross bread pudding. This meal was so disappointing that I am giving this review. I never give bad reviews. I usually do a good job of picking out restaurants, however, I really failed in this one. I am Foodie and currently live in a very competitive high quality food city. I have no problem paying for high quality food. This restaurant has the price of a nice dinner in New York, San Fran, or DC, but the quality of Applebee s. This place was unacceptable, all around. SAVE YOUR MONEY!! I am offended that they think their food is worth this price. ***On a good note. I had the best meal in St Thomas at STONE HOUSE CAFE. It was so good we went back twice.**** Other great places instead of this place in the price category are Prime and Blue Eleven.

We heard about this place from one of our bartenders and it did not disappoint. We had the grouper and the parmesan crusted pork chop. The grouper was great and the pork chop was awesome!!! It was topped with this tomato and onion jam that was soooooo good. If I could have bought a jar of that topping I would have. Great atmosphere and service with great wines to chose from.

This place is an absolute must of your bidding visiting St. Thomas. The staff is just amazing! Friendly, casual and talented. The menu is creative and wonderfully executed. They had a smoked chicken wing appraiser special that night with this amazing berry glaze. My wifes parmesan crusted pork chop was huge and perfectly cooked. All in all it was an amazing experience. Well certainly be back should we find ourselves in this part of the world again.

If you are looking for seafood, this could be your place. From the exterior it does not even look like a fine dining place, but it is from inside. We loved Garlic bread and Fried chicken livers. Tried lionfish and chips, it was okay. It could be much better. Wife tried Chicken Piccata, chicken was good but rice was okay. Tip - They charge 20% service charge straight on your final check. Make sure to check the receipt. Also any substitute will incur additional charge, so please check with server ahead. Service was good and server did asked us couple of times. I would suggest better to have reservations ahead of time.

Fantastic place for a delicious meal. Options for salads, sandwiches, and entrees that are fresh, original, and generous. On a Thursday night in early January there was a magnificent two piece jazz ensemble. No outdoor seating, but the AC was not blasting (like everywhere else in this town) so it was comfortable in the restaurant. Stuffed mushrooms appetizer and fig almond bread pudding were yum. .

Marga was our server. She was extremely personable and attentive while serving a number of tables at once. The food was awesome! We had the stuffed mushrooms, duck fat fries, lion fish piccata and the flour less chocolate torte. If I was a local I would come here for any one of these dishes regularly. The piccata was especially amazing! Jason, the owner and chef, personally came and spoke to us and provided a dessert on the house since we were on our honeymoon. He mentioned that they used fresh herbs from their garden for the piccata which explains why it was so incredibly good! 10/10!

We took a party of twelve for a weeknight dinner and were treated very well. Waitstaff in particular was excellent, personable and attentive. I felt the appetizers were probably better than the mains, although mains were consistently good - the apps set a standard it would be tough to match. The chicken livers done as a take on wings were a standout. We had a great time.

My husband had the lamb shank which was fork tender and a deep flavor sauce which complimented this dish. Dessert was a flourless chocolate torte, a perfect size to share. Delightful! If you are interested in a cocktail try the Carribean Old Fashioned.

First time at Twisted Cork. My wife and I went here for dinner tonight, really nice atmosphere and the food was simply awesome! I had a Triggerfish special that really was special, nicely prepared with a wonderful pepper garnish that was perfectly spicy, not hot but terrific flavor. My wife ordered the chicken pesto pasta which had an amazingly fresh pesto sauce that made your mouth water. We both had the sweet potato soup as an appetizer. The only negative aspect to our visit was we had no room for o e of their desserts, all of which sounded like winners. Were definitely coming back!
