Greengos Caribbean Cantina in Charlotte Amalie

Always enjoy Greengos when on St Thomas. Food is always good and prices are as well.

Quaint place with excellent food and service.

Great restaurant

Great ambience, service is great! A little heavy on the salt.

Cool spot

Delicious food and atmosphere

Great atmosphere and great food.

Traveling with a group doing our own food tour, we found our way here. Nick was fabulous and really indulged us in splitting apps. I would definitely put this on my list of places to eat on future trips into town.

Excellent service, very friendly waitresses

Greengos is a nice little restaurant in the heart of Charlotte Amalie. The food was good and delicious and the service was excellent . I highly recommend this restaurant while in St. Thomas. RGB. Food

Love this place, great food and drinks. We visited both in St thomas and St Jones

really good food and very homey atmosphere

The food is bland.

Great food & excellent service. A bit warm inside the restaurant but still cooler than outside. Also the chips & salsa are very good as well.

Its a very nice little restaurant ! The waitresses were very nice and professional. The food is very good and they serve good portions! Food : 5/5

Great food. Service was slow and hard to get hold of.

Some of the best Mexican food you can find in Charlotte Amalie. Coming from people from Arizona this is the bomb. All the drinks were fantastic. Service was great. Highly recommend

Cool little hidden jem

Great food..

We thoroughly enjoyed our burritos, and the salsa served with them was legit. The server checked on us shortly after serving the food, made sure we had drink refills before we needed them, and added a few chips to the leftovers we took with us. Highly recommend for reliable Mexican food and great service.

Me and my wife had the nachos and it was big enough to fill both of us up and the beer was a great price do miss out on this spot in st.thomas

OMG, what a place. I had a Cantina salad with the local fresh mahi-mahi. and my husband had fish tacos with the local fresh mahi-mahi. it was just sensational. And the drinks were to die for. The service is great and the place is beautiful, it s an old 1600 carriage house and it s right off the ocean walk. Catch it!

The first day the food was amazing but the second time we ate, the food was not good. Not sure if they changed chef but I guess it s hit or miss at this place

From beginning to end Amanda is awesome!! Food, atmosphere great! Good place to chill and enjoy. Pleasant and helpful. Will definitely return!

Very nice place, the employees are very attentive and make sure you have even you need unlike some other restaurants here. I usually get the burrito, but I highly recommend the taco salad

We enjoyed this quaint food spot right off the waterfront in the alley. It s best to park on the waterfront and walk across the street as there is no parking back there. You can sit outside or inside. We choose to sit in with the air and the decor inside was pretty cool, it was giving day of the dead lol with beautiful artwork. We had a kind and patient server who assisted with recommendations and accommodated our request as newbies. There was a live band so that was a nice unexpected touch! Now for the stuff you want food review lol. Food is expensive on the island in general you really need a food budget, this was quite a shock to me. For 2 of us: 1 meal, 1 drink each + 15% gratuity automatically added and a 3% card fee was roughly $75. Chips and salsa is available with a charge so it s best to order a meal that comes with it. Everything tasted fresh. I was on the fence about getting the beans on my meal but they are delicious and I m glad I tried them on the side! We had the burritos which is VERY feeling and flavorful so that s my recommendation. For a $2 up charge you can make it like an enchilada getting cheese and red sauce on top kinda of the best of both worlds. If you like heat, you ll enjoy their ghost pepper hot sauce. The burritos are stuffed so it was difficult to finish which is a good problem to have. The frozen margs were ok. Nice size but only ok for me. Perhaps if I got top shelf it would be more enjoyable or maybe even a different flavor, it could use more flavor (mango) to me but my SO who is a rare drinker thoroughly enjoyed his (strawberry). I would definitely recommend and come back when we get a chance to. Parking: You have to park on the main road at the water front and walk across the street to the alley.

Food was good, but they are white people tacos. No spice to it.

Great flavor, fresh veggies and really good salsa. They actually care about what it tastes like. Most places on st. Thomas dont taste very good, theyve got you trapped on an island and they know it. You wont get a better meal at this price point on st. Thomas. Good portion sizes. About 20 dollars per person. Building is super cool too, building is from the 1700s I think

My name is Noah and I m writing this under my wife s account. My wife and I just dined here, 4/7/24 from 2-3pm. Food was fine. Service needs a write up. Whichever servers were working during the aforementioned time slot have an attitude problem. Service was slow and disrespectful. We were ready to order but the waitress somewhat rudely insisted she was only taking drink orders. She took so long to return we almost got up and left before ordering and then she was there in the nick of time. I would ve overlooked it all and left the 20% built in gratuity with no qualms until it was time to pay. After again sitting too long waiting, the check was brought out. When we tried to pay the waitress said cash only like we were causing a problem trying to pay with card. When my wife said the menu said they take card, the waitress said their system was down. Obviously this would have been a pretty basic good thing to know before ordering. When I told the waitress we didn t have enough cash, she said there is a ATM around the corner. It s hard to convey tone and mannerism in text, but the way she said it was ridiculous and unprofessional. They had scribbled cash only at the bottom of a board on the wall in relatively small cursive lettering. I noticed on my way to find an ATM. The waitress provided no directions. I found an ATM not too far away and tried to stick my card in but it was out of order. I went back and told the waitress the ATM was out of order. She told me to go to a different one. I asked her for directions and she obliged. I was very tempted to walk out on the bill at this point, which I have never done in my life, but the restaurant doesn t deserve the loss, just the servers. In retrospect, we shouldn t have paid the included gratuity. So I spent 20 minutes walking around in the hot sun looking for an ATM, paid a $3.50 ATM service fee, and never once received an apology or thank you for any of the inconvenience. Never once did anyone apologize for any inconvenience throughout our entire dining experience. When I returned and paid our bill, no one said a word. They didn t even say goodbye or thank you. Unreal.

Definitely order the Mahi Tacos, our server said the mahi is locally caught! We went around 4pm on a Monday for an early dinner and practically had the place to ourselves, the staff were super friendly and even gave us personal recommendations on where to go during our stay here. Will be coming back! Vegetarian options: They have a tofu slaw blend that can be substituted in for almost any dish with a meat filling

We dined there on April 7th and had a horrible experience! Our server was very rude to us and ignored us a bunch of times while busy serving other tables. When it s time to pay, another women from the kitchen saw I put credit card on the table ( it took so long for them to even bring the bill) and told me they only accept cash. NOBODY TOLD US THAT BEFORE WE SAT DOWN AND EAT. This women has a very nasty attitude and told us what I saw on the menu was inaccurate( even though the menu clearly says they accept cards just a 3% transaction fee) We would never eat there if they told us in the first place that they only do cash! My husband went several blocks in hot Sun try to find a working ATM while the waiter provided no help or direction. Ironically, this place charged us a built in 15% tip and we paid all the amount including the tip after got cash from ATM even though they clearly don t deserve any of it!! They were so rude and never apologized to us about the inconvenience and ignored us even on our way out! ! ! BTW: I ordered tacos which was a good amount, but way too much liquid dripping from tacos and they will charge you extra amount if you want a little hot sauce on the side.

Some of the best and fresh meals on the island. Definitely try the tacos and nachos.

Fun place. Excellent food and house tequila was delicious!

Good Mex food and better Mex drinks. Fast friendly service.

The food was decent for the price. The drinks were the best part. The two enchiladas was filling while the chicken quesadilla could have used more meat. The chips with queso for $12 was a little pricey and should have went with just the chips and salsa. There was live entertainment which was nice. Friendly staff too.

This is by far one of the best places to eat on the island!

Great place to stop off on the way back to a cruise. Great food and service! Dont forget the tequila

Definitely a must when visiting St. Thomas! Great food, drinks and service! And the meandering roosters arent bad either LOL Ive been here twice on different visits, always great!! Food

The bartender with glasses is the rudest bartender on this island. Thats all I have to say.

Great restaurant, food, and service! Definitely recommend!

Love everything about this place!

Enchiladas were good. Service was awesome

If you love tequila, be sure to try their own cask tequila, delicious and at a great price!

Awesome place, 300+Tequilas

Quick service with a friendly staff

The nachos are beyond exceptional and no drink is a bad choice. Recommend the margarita, cucumber margarita, and mango daiquiri. So good we went back the next day!

Very fun place. Great staff. Great food and drinks.

Wow, so glad we stopped here for lunch! We were in St Thomas just for a day on a cruise. While on a snorkeling excursion in the morning, the Captain of the of the sailboat we were on suggested we stop at Greengos for lunch. He said it was really good. He was not wrong! We had a tostada and also a burrito which were both excellent. These both came with salsa and chips. The salsa was some of the best I ever had. On top of the food, the service was great. If your visiting St Thomas, this is a must stop!

Nice, quiet place

Parking: Hard to find parking Food

Really good service. High quality Mexican. Fair prices anywhere for the island despite being in cool, popular tourist shopping area. Pork tacos amazing and great drinks. Bathrooms not real nice. Laid back, casual ambiance

Mediocre at best. Definitely not authentic. Skip this place and go elsewhere.

Margaritas were great and the food was good. We like to eat here more for the experience. We had the pork enchiladas which were very good and the chicken bowl which was ok. Overall, this is a cute restaurant in Mongoose Junction with good service and you will leave with a fun experience.

One of our favorite spots!

Very good painkillers and great shrimp tacos! Our second time here. Very laid back.

Great little place to hang out just walk down this nice alleyway

Delicious food and great service!!

Friendly service. Fast food. Good drinks. And pretty alley. Wanted to go back, but closed at 5 pm.

We cruise a lot and everything we go to St. Thomas, we have lunch at Greengos. We also check out the shop next door for Greengos tee shirts or other items. We highly recommend!

Cantina located in HH Riise Mall in Charlotte Amalie. Seemed like a decent local place to try. Our party of seven was very pleased with the food. A few ordered alcoholic beverages/mixed drinks and were pleased. Casual atmosphere. Good service. Bathrooms a little blah, but functioning. Those who travel internationally will adapt easily to the restroom accommodations. Located down a little brick-paved alleyway, it feels like a great find for first-time visitor to St. Thomas.

Great little find in downtown Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas! Loved our waitress and enjoyed the food, drinks, and atmosphere.

No words... Great food and drinks. Will come here every time Im back in St. Thomas for vacation.

Its tucked away in an alley, the walls are old brick, its very pretty atmosphere. I had chicken tacos and my wife had burrito, the food was fantastic. We will come back here again

02.18.2023 Food was Great and service was FRIENDLY! Love sitting at any of the alleyway restaurants in Charlotte Amalie! Greengos did not disappoint!!n We had the Chips, salsa, and guac for an appetizer and it was so worth getting. The chips were warm and perfectly salty. I had the Strawberry infused margarita and it was perfect...not a single flavor overpowered any of the others...Perfection! My husband had the fish tacos and loved them! I had the Cheese enchiladas and they were so good! Would highly recommend you put Greengos on your list of restaurants to eat at while visiting! Wheelchair accessibility: Outdoor seating with shade!

Visited here a couple of days ago. Great find. Food was good, drinks were great and the service was amazing. Will return and recommend this to anyone visiting the island. I will try and add photos later. Enjoy!

Great place to sit outside and have a great meal. The salsa and frozen are excellent! We make sure to eat here every year during our annual ladies trip.

Food is excellent.

Good food, good service and strong drinks...cute little side alley dining outside and inside seating. Food takes a bit, but it waspretty tasty.

Good place to stop for lunch while shopping. Came here on a Sunday afternoon and was seated inside. Food very tasty and service was excellent. I highly recommend the Cantina Bowl with chicken.

Drinks! In the Caribbean. Who woulda guessed?

Arial is my favorite bartender in St. Thomas! Amazing experience!!

Great spot for lunch with tasty food and drinks and quick service. We actually came here twice we liked it so much. My husband had the shrimp tacos and I had the nachos. we definitely liked their painkillers! Just note they arent open for dinner.

Great shrimp burrito!

Greengos is a cute bar in a convenient location. No matter how busy they are, food and drink service is with impressive speed. My most recent visit was during carnival and while the staff were clearly tired, they gave great service. This is a good place to grab a spicy margarita.

I have been going to Greengos for years and their food and service is still great. My last visit was amazing they also have a vege options.

Food wasnt bad. Not great. Drinks were sub par. 6 of us ( 2 kids) was $176 and was not worth it.

Killer place! Must visit if you are in St Thomas.

We had chips queso salsa and shared tacos. It was plenty. The service is great. They even have a little store thats open on cruise days. Great place!

Great Mexican food

Excellent food!

We wanted to go to different restaurants but they required reservations. The food was okay. Could have used a little more season. Drinks were good and strong. Very pricey but that might be because of island. Wouldnt go back. Server wasnt that friendly

What an awesome place. Great service. Awesome food and beverages. And tons of tequila to choose from.

Sat at the bar with 3 friends. We had margaritas, taquutos, burrito and nachos. My nachos were huge and delicious! Everyone really liked their food. Vegetarian options: They had several vegetarian options for me to choose from. Dietary restrictions: I needed to have no raw onion in my food and they were able to accommodate me. Parking: Greengoes is in an alley so you cant park near. We found street parking several blocks away.

I really cant complain about anything much, everything that they served was satisfying and was just a great time. The sizes for the price was also a nice extra bit of a bonus. If Im ever in the Virgin Islands again, I will try to head here. I will only complain about the heat inside, but thats one of those things pretty much out of the restaurants hands. Great stuff, over all.

Stopped in for chips and salsa along with some daiquiris. Food and drinks were great, service was fun and fast.

Food is delicious. We went when there was live music in the alley and it was very crowded and loud in the resteraunt. Weve been other times and always have a good experience. One of our favorite spots.

Chorizo and shrimp bowl. Thats all!

Good Mexican food with a HUGE variety of tequilas. My wife and I came in for lunch, so we were eating relatively light. I had their taquito and they were very tasty. My wife had one of their bowls and she really liked it. The server was good and attentive. The vibe borders on creepy. Kind of a day if the dead feel inside and it s pretty dark. If your driving - be aware that there s no parking close by since it s in a alley. But good food, good service and tequila aplenty makes for a good combo. One reason I didn t rate 5 stars is that the day we came there was no internet, which can be slightly frustrating because they become a cash only restaurant. Not having consistency with that is more of an inconvenience but I think it s just let of island life.

Food was really oily,soggy and wasn t made right. I ordered two quesadillas

Great spot. Try to go when there aren t cruise ships in the port or you will be waiting.

Recommended, A+ food and service

Great food. No ac, but no one seemed to mind

Awesome vegan options. They can substitute any meat for tofu.

Great place for tacos and other Mexican cuisine

Fantastic food, but a bit too lax on service even by any island standards. It s a shame we didn t have a chance to taste the drink we ordered that never came.

If you like tequila bars then don t even bother looking anywhere else. House tequila is trickled through old distillery barrels and is hard to beat- especially at $5/each . Food is tasty and service is friendly and comes with a smile. If you re lucky, you might get Abby to take a shot with you ;)

AyeYaaheeeee Great food and atmosphere Food

Awesome place. Fast service and food was awesome. Had the chicken burrito smothered with enchilada sauce and cheese sauce. Very big portions.

This place has 350+ different tequila s. Nuff said.

We were in Charlotte Amalie for 3 nights, but managed to stop here twice. The tequila selection is unreal - 350 tequilas currently available... Strong pours, good vibe, good alternative music, dog friendly

Vegetarian options: Fresh Food

Never disappoints when in St Thomas

Great food and an actual normal sized Colada! Was a great find.

Great food and service

Food and drinks amazing service was great

Nice little hole in the wall. Food was good, nothing to write home about. Nachos were really really good, fish tacos meh. Found the bill a little on the extravagant side for the taste and 18% gratuity was already added to the bill which was irritating.

Amazing restaurant with stellar food, phenomenal service and hundred of different tequilas. Cannot wait to go back to get another Cantina Bowl.

Great food...the Staff really hustled to try and get everyone seated and fed (surge from the cruise). Cool spot in a very old, historic building. Great lunch...ice cold beer and very friendly, hard-working staff!

Very good cantina food and must try drinks.

Excellent service and food was good. However, the queso sauce should be renamed white gravy with cheese flavor because thats essentially what it was so they lost a star for what would have been a 4 star rating.

Very good food. Would be 5 stars, but a bit overpriced.

Top rated for a reason. Food was really good.

Gave me food poisoning not to mention kinda gross and overpriced

Great food, good service. Would love it if chips and salsa came with the meals, but sadly it does not.

Ok. I went on for this awesome cucumber infused margarita. The same group bbc, smokin rooster and greengos. Great place. Menu is great. Service was great. Did you know there are more than 300 types of tequila

Excellent service. Great Mexican food, very good drinks.

Love the Nachos

Great atmosphere, great service, excellent food, a first rate experience for a first time customer. I highly recommend Greengos to all.

Awesome place with great food, great service, and great atmosphere! Ariel was absolutely wonderful and made sure we were very well taken care of. The burrito and Mahi cantina bowl were excellent choices, and the portion sizes were huge! The painkiller drink definitely lived up to its name. This place is certainly worth a stop for both food and drinks!

Love the food and workers. Atmosphere was the best!

Very friendly people. Loved the hot sauce!!! Food and drinks were good!

Delicious food! Grabbed some real quick before heading to the airport. Quick and easy stop. The staff had great knowledge of vegan food and had a bunch of options!

Greengos is always a hit! This visit marked our 3rd of the 4 Greengos restaurants: San Juan, Smoking Rooster STT, and this Charlotte Amalie location. So grateful for the delicious lacto-ova and vegan menu items, and for the tasty drinks! This location is in a historic building, which adds a European-Caribbean vibe. An easy choice for a nice meal in St. Thomas.

The service was quick and attentive, the food came out quickly and tasted amazing, and the drinks are generous at a normal price

Great Nachos!!! very savory and fresh. The frozen Margarita is fantastic just good! We came on Friday and by Sunday we were back for more nachos and Margies! Great service, prices Good for value! Will be Back!!!

Greengos Cantina in Charlotte Amalie has very small indoor and outdoor areas, but the outdoor area is in a quaint old town alleyway and is so pleasant. Waitress was extremely friendly and efficient. Food was fast. Homemade chips and tortillas were delicious! We really enjoyed our meal. Tip was automatically added, so we did not tip our usual. Their loss.

Prices are comparable to everything else in the area. The quesadillas were delicious. Hard shelled chicken tacos had no flavor. Cantina bowl had no flavor. Service was decent.

Great service, food, and atmosphere!

Great food!

We ate lunch here and it was delicious! While family enjoyed everything we got. Service was extremely quick and waitstaff friendly. Would go back again.

The location is very nice. That s about all the good I have to say. The food 100 percent reminds me of something a run down Taco Bell would make. Expect Taco Bell is still better. The prices are definitely way to high for what they push out check the pictures. There is no la Carte which means that you can t order one item by itself for say kids. If you want any thing related to real Mexican food stay away. Gratuity will be added to the bill as well.

After exploring St. Thomas we stopped by this great little Mexican joint to cool down with an icy beverage. We were not disappointed! Great variety of frozen margaritas. The kids even enjoyed a virgin frozen drink. Reasonably priced and nice attentive staff.

Vegetarian options: You can ask for tofu instead of meat

When we visit St Thomas, we ALWAYS make it a point to stop at Greengos!

This place is a must if you are visiting St Thomas. Great staff! The food is delicious. Very authentic. You cant park close, but thats how the waterfront is. Just stroll through the historic area like a pirate and get some good grub!

Yummy!

Great food options, cool alley, tasty drinks

Cozy spot in Charlotte Amalie with friendly service and a laid back vibe. One of the most extensive Tequila selections I have ever experienced. Our server helped me pick a perfect anejo while my wife had a couple top shelf margaritas. We also snacked on some amazing nachos with chicken. Cant wait to return another time!

Really nice restaurant very different from what we are used to great food highly recommend the nachos with mahi-mahi

This is a hole in the wall restaurant in an alleyway off the Main Street of the capital, but with that being said this place is great. Its a Spanish-Mexican themed establishment with fantastic food, drinks and staff.

Great food, drinks and atmosphere

Great food!

I had the Cantina bowl and margarita, both were good and the customer service was great also. Theres not much going on, it was small and bathrooms were clean. So yeah, no complaints.

Food was incredible and we are still talking about it 8 months later. We sat outside which was adorable.

Great food and service!

Best Mexican food around!!!

Food wasn t good all around. We were offered chips and queso by our waitress Abby, but were not told they costed extra. When we got them, they were so stale they were almost soggy, and when we got the bill we had noticed they were $13 extra. We had asked the waitress to take them off because we didn t order them we were offered them and they were stale, she brushed us off had said you have to pay for them anyway. (We weren t the only ones complaining about them as well) NOT pleased and wouldn t recommend.

Really really good , fast service , great serving sizes

Went for a lunch with our nephew Angel who lives on the island. It s in the tourist area so it s popular and busy. Good food and great service by our server. Had enchiladas with shredded beef. Food is good and people are very nice. Had salty senorita margaritas. They were worth it. They taste great and packed with tequila!!

Favorite place we ate both here and in St John. Solid Mexican that has excellent flavors and friendly staff. Nachos were fantastic and I loved the carnitas bowl. Great drinks too!!

Me and my wife stopped by and had lunch food was delicious staff was friendly and the restaurant is very nice we even stopped by the gift shop to get some shirts! We are visiting from Florida

Great place, we had a good time!

Amazing food and service. Very authentic Mexican food for reasonable price.

Amazing drinks! Amazing staff! Amazing food! Highly recommend!!!!

Sailing Barefoot Cowboy!!! We love this place! Best Margaritas and food!!

Small but awesome mexican restaurant. Has maybe 20 tables and has a constant flow of customers. Atmosphere very relaxing. Food was wonderful. One waiter who was hustling and did a great job. Bartender was quickly making many drinks. Would recommend this place and we will not hesitate to return when we come back to St. Thomas.

Super nice Mexican spot in Charlotte Amalie!! Gorgeous setting and absolutely delicious food. The nachos were so yummy and I definitely recommend the chicken taquitos and tasty rice. Service was friendly as well! If you are in downtown Charlotte Amalie, I fully recommend you grab lunch at this central location!

My husband and I stopped in for lunch while honeymooning in St. Thomas. The food was amazing and the customer service was great.

It looks like a tequila bar, but we went outside. I was captivated by the sight of the margaritas people were drinking. Because it is a tequila bar, there are many different types. It was good and the tequila based cocktail was good. And the nachos are really delicious. The quantity was larger than I expected and it was good.

What a cute place! The interior vibe is Mexican Day of the Dead - Vogue edition. Very stylish and awesome custom art everywhere. The bar looks like a cantina from a remote Star Wars planet. The servers are very friendly and efficient. The menu is traditional Mexican restaurant = Avant Garde edition. Interesting choices like a grilled shrimp quinoa bowl... So Delicious! Highly recommend this. We also tried the special of the day -Chorizo burger with house made chorizo. It was quite good. Some of the best chorizo Ive had for sure, brought the burger experience to a new level. The standard options, like enchiladas and tacos are also tasty and well executed. Worth a trip if youre feeling like some south of the border cuisine in Charlotte Amalie!

Friendly staff, excellent food and drinks, just what we needed on a hot day in the Carribean

Cool spot right in mongoose junction. Excellent margaritas and all the other traditional Mexican fare. Not much parking here but that s pretty standard on St. John. Easy walk of just a few minutes from the ferry dock.

Rachel served us. She was kind and helpful. We loved the queso, salsa and chip platter. We also ordered the chicken taquitos which were delicious. I would recommend having a bite here. Ask for Rachel too.

Super great Caribbean mex fair and awesome service in a historical building. Great drinks too!

Tacos and drinks are amazing

Enjoyed having lunch here. Quick service and nice staff. Burrito was good and a large portion. Taco salad was mediocre I would recommend this restaurant. Great selection of tequila also.
