We were only in st Thomas for 5 nights and we ate here twice! The food was so delicious and freshly made, service was excellent. The bartender was very helpful (Robert). They also had this very, very sweet woman as a hostess (if she’s not the manager she should be) who made us feel so welcomed and would pop by and laugh with us periodically. Would literally make the flight back just to eat here again. One of those spots you won’t forget.
Every year my family makes a Thanksgiving week trip to St Thomas and we change up where we eat each time. This time it was Pesce Italian. We were able to easily book a reservation on Open Table for our family of six at a time that we chose. Parking in the lower garage was plentiful and the short walk to the front door was a breeze. Upon entering we were taken away with the wonderful atmosphere and the welcoming by each member of the staff that we made eye contact with. It was a very pleasant and welcoming experience. We were promptly seated, provided with drinks and chose our appetizers which were amazing. The server was excellent, the entrees were very proportioned and the taste was wonderful. They even had a kids menu for our two young boys,which is often hard to find on the island. Overall my family was very happy with our choice this year and we may return again based on how well things went.
The CharlesWorks crew had a great time visting on Charles & Susan's 28th anniversary. The food was great, as was all the staff there. Friendly, courteous and great food! And they made us feel very special on our special day.
We had this tonight and it was a amazing. All pasta is made fresh. To start we had the Rosemary Foccacia...the balsamic glaze was so good. My family had Fettuccine Alfredo with shrimp and I opted for the Veal Parmesan. The sauce was soo good! Highly recommended!!
Best Italian on the island, hands down. I stumbled in here looking for tasty eats on a Monday night (most restaurants are closed). I was pleasantly surprised by their vegetarian options. The artichoke flatbread aka pizza is to die for. The risotto is equally delectable. I had a glass of sharp Chardonnay which was also amazing. Everything came out of the kitchen quick and piping hot! Please make a reservation. I came alone and sat at the bar as they are very busy even during slow season. Do not skip over the delicious fine dining at this establishment, you'll regret it.
Our experience at Pesce was unique and here’s why: First, our server was FANTASTIC. We found out that they were short staffed the night we came in, so our server was also our bartender and host. He was genuinely thrilled to have us and went above and beyond for our kids. Second, we had to wait quite a bit for our food (almost an hour) my wife and I were joking that maybe all three connected restaurants share a tiny kitchen in back… turns out we were actually right 😅 The restaurants DO share a kitchen, which only impressed us more! Yes we had to wait a bit for our food, but it was well worth the wait and we’re on island time anyways 🤷♂️😎 Last but not least, the food at Pesce was simply delicious. Which is exactly why we went back and tried Agave… also delicious! You can’t go wrong with Pesce and the RedHook area was just a fun place to walk around and enjoy the night life.
We have an amazing dinner at this place. The waitress was amazing! She was nice, professional, and super lovely. I don't remember her name, but it starts with shan... The food was really, really good ! Foccacia was amazing. My whole fish was also super well cooked ! The risotto was incredible. Dessert was also very good !
Excellent food. Three in our party had different dishes and everyone loved their food. I had the Chicken Alfredo and it was at the top of the best I've ever had. The desserts were good, but on par with other good Italian restaurants. The only down side to this place is we were there for almost two hours from sit down to leave. We were prompt in ordering and asked for our check with the dessert to expedite things. Maybe this is just Island life. 😆 The food is fresh and amazing, just prepare to wait. Oh, and parking is a nightmare, so a cab is recommended.
Delightful Dining at Pesce Italian! Our experience at Pesce Italian was exceptional! The ambiance was warm and inviting, perfect for a cozy meal. The menu offered a fantastic selection, and each dish we tried was bursting with flavor. The pasta was fresh and cooked to perfection. We tried the Truffled Mushroom pasta and the Margherita flatbread pizza and they were delicious. The staff was attentive and knowledgeable. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a delicious Italian meal while in STT.
We ordered penne alla vodka and tuna carpaccio. Both were delicious. The pasta dish was superb. They have good wine selection by glass and cocktails. Parking: We parked in Marina garage after 7pm and it was free. Otherwise street parking is limited
We had our first dinner in St. Thomas at Pesce Italian and would highly recommend it. The pasta was fresh and homemade, and everything else we ate was absolutely delicious. Our server gave us tons of tips for places to go while on our trip and his recommendations were excellent. We also thought for the quality of our meal that the price was excellent and the restaurant had a sweet card for our anniversary!
I loved this place! The spaghetti with meatballs was perfect. Also, very good wine
Fantastic from start to finish. Ambience was on point and service was outstanding
Great food, amazing atmosphere and our server Shamara was so welcoming and recommended the best ever food!
Fantastic restaurant. Comfortable environment outstanding food and service. Grilled octopus (pictured) was tasty.
The food is really good, the service was amazing and the atmosphere is really Italian. You even smell parmesan cheese once you open the door.
Food was amazing, didnt have a reservation but was able to get seated quite quickly. Food was very good, bolognese and chicken parm were fantastic. Manager was great, and comped dessert due to a slightly increased wait time for drinks. Strongly recommend if youre looking for good Italian food!
I don t really write reviews too often but I m a sucker for Italian food. Caught happy hour at the bar and ate through the dinner menu. The pasta is clearly fresh. The Caesar salad, bruschetta were fantastic. A great espresso drink and dessert to finish it off. A little bit of an Italian snob but these guys did it right. Richard at the bar made me feel right at home. All the other staff also went above and beyond to give an excellent experience. They clearly work as a team and it shows. Definitely would recommend this place to anyone visiting and even locals on island. Hats off. Fantastic job!
We dined the last hour of the night. I dont typically like going anywhere in the last hour because I feel the quality will suffer due to employees wanting to go home. However I must say we were treated with care and professionalism from start to finish. I had the whole fried snapper and hubby had the veal. Both were fresh and delicious! Literally no complaints! Everything was cooked to perfection and so was the calamari. Our waiter was great and attentive! 10/10
Came here with some friends and it was a cute little spot. Food was amazing, service was good. No vegan options because the noodles contain eggs. I ate the meal anyways without cheese.
The food and service was excellent! Eric our server was so personable! We definitely would go back and request Eric!!! Thank you so much Eric!
Really good service my server Shania was amazing too
One of the best places on the island. Samara was an amazing server! Will go back every time we are there! Get the snapper or the chicken francaise both were out of this world!
Delicious, authentic, Italian food. We forgot to take pictures because we dug in as soon as the plates hit the table. They didnt have an open table, so they sat us at the bar. The portions were fulfilling but not over sized.
All the food was delicious, the waiter was super attentive and friendly, I highly recommend it, God bless you and continue offering excellent service!!
** ** I had an absolutely wonderful dining experience at Pesque Italian! Bailey was my server, and she did a fantastic job making sure everything was perfect. The gluten-free flatbread was delicious, and the two drinks she recommended complemented the meal perfectly. Her attentive service and friendly demeanor made the evening even more enjoyable. I highly recommend Pesque Italian for anyone looking for great food and excellent service. Thanks, Bailey, for making it a memorable night! Dietary restrictions: Gluten Free!!
The food was so good! The service and drinks by Bailey were the best! Jahlima did such a great job too! Everyone was very friendly! The Tiramisu was the best we ever had!
Shamarra was AWESOME. We all Loved her personality, she is phenomenal at her trade. Food was delicious, homemade Italian noodles were solid, would recommend to anyone who likes Italian food. Atmosphere tucks you away, you forget youre in St. Thomas. Kid-friendliness: Get Shamarra - shes fantastic for the whole family.
What a great time. Came here with a few friends from vaca and the waitress was very polite and even told us some local food places to visit!
Ordered chicken parmasan side salad to go, and it was burnt around the edges, no flavor at all, salad dressing tasted terrible, didnt even come with bread. I travel all over the country and definitely not great Italian and for that price especially!
I went with my partner to dinner, we ordered the rosemary focaccia (which was extremely good I loved the garlic chips) and chicken parmesan which was excellent!!! Our server Eric was amazing, very attentive and nice. I will definitely be returning when I m in the island.
What an incredible experience. The Shrimp Scampi made my taste buds dance on my tounge! You must also order garlic bread to scoop up all the deliciousness from the dish. We needed two orders of bread as the quantity of bread is small compared to the amount of food you get in the dish. We also ordered the Snapper Piccata, Margarita Pizza , Cesar Salad, and Beet salad. EVERYTHING WAS AMAZING. We all shared at the table and no one left with an empty stomach. Our server Steve really made our experience. I need that Shrimp Scampi recipe asap! I will be dining here again on our next trip. Jenny Ryan Came back again a second day in a row and Eric was our server bartender. He was super pleasant and very informative. I was able to taste some different beings to see what I liked. I ordered the Shrimp Scampi again, and this time I had my shrimp blackened! This is an awesome move. I am grateful they were able to accommodate.
Our meal from start to finish was absolutely fantastic. I usually never write reviews, but this needed to be done. Appetizers were so good we got round 2. It happened to be pasta monday,so that what we did. The main dish was so amazing. Then we also got dessert. My daughter loved the lava cake. I got the lemon lemoncello creme brulle. HOLY COW is all I have to say. Its a must go. Parking: The parking was a small parking garage. It was super easy.
The food and service were excellent. Our server Eric was attentive and very considerate. The homemade pasta is outstanding. All of our dishes were prepared and presented well. The only reason for four stars is the music did not enhance the Italian atmosphere. It wasn t disagreeable but not Italian.
Everything in St. Thomas is expensive. If you order an expensive stake, it should be overcooked. Good shrimp scampi though.
Great restaurant. Expensive but thats expected on island
Shamara is absolutely incredible. Our family is here on vacation from Wisconsin and wanted to have some Italian. The service was incredible. Would recommend!
Yummy cocktails. Calamari app very fresh. Had stuffed pepper which was good but needed bit more flavor incl salt. My companion had Monday night pasta special - pene with vodka and added chicken. That was outstanding. Crème brûlée dessert was delicious. Atmosphere in front room where bar is located is nicer than back room with green grass wall. The music should match atmosphere better.
One of the more elegant restaurants we found in Red Hook. The service was exceptional and the food tasty. I suggest reservations during the busy times.
Food usually is wonderful with various wines and cocktails. Large menu but always as for specials. Staff is very knowledgeable and very friendly. Only reason not 5 stars was we sat near the kitchen and we were in the middle of traffic from staff and customers. We come here once or twice when on the island.
Great Alfredo had an amazing time. Look forward to going again.
We had a fantastic dining experience tonight. We don t normally go for Italian because well, we are Italians from the Nj/ny area This was a pleasant surprise. The eggplant parm was-and I m being serious-the best I ve had out in forever. Really wonderful all around. The young lady at the hostess stand was really sweet and Eric our server was so friendly; professional and cool. Thank you.
The food is so good omg!
Everything was fabulous!!
Came to St. Thomas with a group of friends. Went to Pesce on our way back from St. Johns since its conveniently located in Red Hook. Everything here was 10 out of 10! From the host Jahlima right when we stepped in the door to our server Shamara we felt like family throughout our entire experience. We ate the mussels in the white garlic creamy sauce 12 out of 10!!! Loved it so much we order a second serving because it was soo good. For our entrees we had carbonara, fettuccini alfreado and chicken francese and the entrees were just as good as the appetizer. Shamara was a wonderful server who asked us about our trip so far and gave us more local recommendations she was so joyful and a great server. We ended up having such a good experience that we came back for a friends birthday dinner a few days later with our larger group. Dont pass this place up!!
Food was ok, but too expensive for pasta dishes, $150 for two without alcoholic drinks.
Pesce was a nice surprise, our party of nine all enjoyed their meal. If I had any criticism, it would be that this is the first Italian restaurant that did not provide bread to the table. Overall, though, it was a delicious meal
The handmade pasta is exceptional. The food is amazing, the atmosphere is wonderful and the service was great. We will be coming back!
OBESE worker who SMELLED of body odor sat me and my mother in a tight table in a corner. I explained nicely that my mother has clinical anxiety and CANNOT sit in tight spaces, and we are willing to wait for another table to open. She scolded me and got IN MY FACE. Vegetarian options are FLAVORLESS and sad. Learn how to season. I will be telling all my airbnb and vrbo guests to never come here. If you want high dining go to ZoZos, or Alloro at the ritz.
Awesome food! Wonderful service!
Love this place
My husband and I had dinner here during our stay in St. Thomas and it was wonderful. The food, service, and ambience provided the perfect experience we were looking for.
Had a wonderful time with my family. Richie did an excellent job. We will be back next time we are in st Thomas.
Food was so good. Always go out for dinner when Im in St. Thomas
Definitely our best dinner on the island. The meals were presented well and with excellent flavor. Each of our 4 dishes were exceptional along with dessert. And the staff was far and away the best on the island for both timeliness and enjoyment!
We walked in here at random but it was really great! Some of the best Italian Ive ever had and I LOVE Italian food. Definitely get the garlic bread!
Order Lamb shank, shrimp scampi , delicious!
Our best meal on St Thomas. The service was top notch by Richie. THANKS. Home made pasta. The cioppino was great. Nice spice and added a side of linguine. Service and atmosphere were much more than we expected. See you soon.
The penne vodka omfg so good the steak was craaaaaazy definitely a must visit
Great italian cuisine. Everything from the appetizers to the mai dish was great. Hard to find an italian restaurant, but this one is really good.
Food was excellent. Best penne alla vodka I ve ever had. You should absolutely go here. Make a reservation
I wish I could give this 0 stars for service. Don t ever go here if you are hungry. We waited 2 hours for the food. The food was ok but with the wait, it is not worth going here.
The service was quite poor. We waited 2 hours before our entrees arrived at the table and kids were getting very hungry. The waitress was trying to keep us happy but the kitchen seemed backed up even when many tables were empty
The place is nice and staff were really welcoming, but the food was not good. We ordered the flat bread and they put WAY too much garlic on it I could not taste anything else besides the garlic ( it was supposed to be a margharita ) also the appetizer that we ordered was a little spicy which they didn t specify on the menu. I won t come back for flat bread again but I might give them a second chance for something different .
Friendly staff with great service and food. Highly recommend.
Great atmosphere, service AND food! Hard to find gluten free options. this was great, from the flat bread to the pasta (all gluten free!). This will be a staple when we visit St. Thomas!
We had dinner on a Wednesday evening, with two teens and one child. They were accommodating to our childs food sensitivities. All of the food and drinks were delicious. We had: focaccia, chicken Parm, shrimp Alfredo, spaghetti with meatball, and Bolognese. There was free parking at the neighboring shopping center, we went early in case we had to circle around to find a spot. Dietary restrictions: Worked with us to accommodate dairy free dish Kid-friendliness: They have a childrens menu. They worked with us to make something our child would eat. They have lemonade and sodas
Been here many times and will return. Good is good and reasonably priced (by Island standards). Make a reservation!
Seller food and atmosphere.
Best italian food in Red Hook Saint Thomas.
Very good . Happy hour EVERY day. Go there Food : 5/5
Had the Shrimp Scampi and there was plenty of shrimp and garlic and a little heat.
So I only write reviews of places that I feel deserve mention on Google reviews, good or bad. That said, I couldn t help but mention how fantastic Pesce was! Service was excellent and the staff were attentive to details (gf). Even when there was a minor issue with our Berratta, they rectified it without an issue and with sincerest apologies. They even recommended a cocktail to help a random cough I was having at dinner (it worked). But I would be amiss if I didn t mention how well the the carbonara and truffle pappardelle dinners were absolutely amazing! I ve dined at authentic Italian in NYC and Italy and have never had this tasty off a dish!! Highly recommend coming here whether local or visiting! Dietary restrictions: They have Gluten free flatbread and penne. Parking: Parking can be difficult especially if arriving late when the tourist scene is alive and well.
The Best Italian restaurant in Redhook. Parking in Redhook in general can sometimes be an issue but its well worth the visit Food
This was probably the best restaurant I ve ever been to! The food was so amazing; definitely the best Italian food I ve ever had, and I m from the east coast. The waiter was great, and so was the atmosphere. It was great all around! We got gnocchi, which I make at home, and it was definitely the best I ve ever had. The bruschetta and penne a la vodka we re amazing as well!
Delicious food, lovely service, great drinks! This restaurant is legit, and was our favorite place we ate during a week on the islands. To see that this has 4.4 stars, while other places that are a total rip off have higher rating, is a shame. Highly recommend you try this restaurant and get the snapper.
This is one of a trio of restaurants in the Red Hook area. It was closed when we went so I will review when I get there again. They do however have an authentic menu with regular specials. Give them a call or check the website
Inside dining only at Pesce. The AC was cranking so bring extra clothes. Low light sets the mood for a nice fine dining experience. Service was attentive and professional. The food shines the most at Pesce with many traditional Italian dishes available. House made pasta is a must. I ordered the braised lamb shank with fresh pappardelle pasta and sherry cream sauce...it scored a perfect 10. I recommend this restaurant.
Food was pretty good! Read reviews and lots of people said to make a reservation so we did but when we got there, they weren t very busy. The calamari is really good here.
We love Pesce! We visited for the first time last year when we were in Red Hook and it was on our list to return to this year. We sat at the bar, Julisa was fantastic and attentive despite being constantly busy with bar orders. The food was amazing. 100% recommend!
Good veg options. Host/bartender Rishi was great. Small but very nice place. Vegetarian options: Enough veg options to choose from. We were a party of 4 and each could find a different dish and appetizer. Food : 4/5 |
Very slow. I think they over booked for the night. And the server was not very gracious about it. The food is decent. Enjoyed the penne vodka and the snapper. The carbonara was too thick of a sauce. Focaccia was over engineered-- a quality bread doesnt need so muchstuff on it. We didnt get to try the desert since we had already been there for 2 hours. Dietary restrictions: Gluten free pasta and flat breads
I m only giving one star because that s the only way I can post my review. My daughter chose this restaurant to celebrate her 13th birthday. Which is why I m so upset. Our waiter let us go 15 minutes without water. We kept having to get his attention for refills or anything else. We ordered garlic bread and he brought us cheese bread. And we never got the refills we asked for. I asked for a dessert menu to order a cake for my daughter s bday and it s been 10 minutes and still haven t been given the menu. We are about to leave and still no refills. Did I mention still no menu either? The waiter was a skinny, bald and tall guy. So hopefully management will train their staff to offer better service.
Fast delightful service with delicious fresh pasta! Highly recommend making reservations however, so plan accordingly. Well worth the reservation!
The best fresh pasta it s Italian!!! Vegetarian options: Great Food : 5/5 |
Richie is great! The hostess ... not so much.
Shamara G. And staff were excellent! Every one made it a lot of fun. The food was excellent and the prices were reasonable. We ve been on the island for ten days so far and this was one of our favorite places so far. Great job done by the staff. Thank you for smiling and making it special.
Pesce is an upscale Italian restaurant. The food is awesome along with great service. Highly recommended!
Excellent food, service was a little slow, but they were super busy.
My husband and I love coming here! The mushroom pappardelle is amazing (we always ask for extra mushrooms). The service can sometimes be a little slow, but in our option its well worth the wait.
Stopped in on a Sunday night with a party of eight no reservations. Luckily, we seated right away as the rush of diners soon followed. Started with some wine and libations along with octopus gnocchi, burrata, brischetta, and meatballs. Our waiter was very attentive and kept us hydrated. We dined on flatbreads, salad, chicken frances, marsala, salmon, and ribeye. Everything was delicious and plentiful. There was no room for dessert. Enjoy! Parking: Parking available, we used a cab
This place is on another level. The Francese was off-the- chain good; top 5 best entrees I have ever eaten. Like seriously it was so good.
The hostess was able to seat us without a reservation which was nice. The staff are very well trained. The food was good, they had vegetarian options which we liked but the portions could be a bit bigger for the price they charge. That one stuffed pepper was like 30 bucks.
Definitely the best food on the island!
We enjoyed our evening at Pesce - good food, good drinks and excellent service! Sequoia waited on us and was knowledgeable about the menu, was engaging and incredibly attentive - we would go back.
I had a great dinner here with family. My sister had a mushroom pasta and my dad veal marsela and I had the delicious chicken Parm. The chicken was perfectly crispy and I loved the flavor to there sauce. The pasta was homemade and super good. Loved enjoying my dinner here! Kid-friendliness: Great place to bring your kids also
Best place on the rock! And they rocked it!
Beautiful restaurant and atmosphere. Amazing service and delicious food
Absolutely looove the food!
This place is a nice restaurant, but there is no organization. Lets wait 30 minutes for a beer, we could see the drinks we ordered at the bar, waiting for 20 minutes and no one taking them We waited 45 minutes for an extra slice of bread. We were celebrating a friends birthday, when she went to the bathroom I told the waitress to sing her birthday, and she completely forgot In total a dinner for 3 people, we spent 3.5 hours.
My husband and I love this place- it is by far one of favorite date night spots on island! Its all indoor, but has white table cloths and low lighting- very romantic. Incredible italian food and it is always on point. Service is amazing!! Definitely recommend calling ahead to make a reservation if you can, they can get super busy!
Valentine day.
Ordered the manicotti and got a dried up deep fried piece of something with a couple spoonfuls of sauce. Not at all what I expected or would ever want.
2nd time this week. Excellent food! Great ambiance!
One of my favorite dinner spots. Great pasta, great drinks and very good service. Mondays are pasta nights where you can get a fabulous entree for around $20 but honestly their normal menu prices are very fair. All pasta is homemade. Mussel appetizer was fabulous!!!
The food was good, atmosphere too. Just wish you had bread for the table.
Nice restaurant with a nice atmosphere inside. Food was delicious but pricey, but it is on St Thomas. Make sure you make reservations or you ll be waiting a while.
We had the shrimp scampi, and pasta carbonara. I was not expecting it to be this good! Everyone raved about it and it delivered!! This was probably our favorite meal on our vacation! The pasta is homemade every day. The drinks were great as well! The staff were attentive and friendly! You won t be disappointed!
Sad, sad, sad. Weve been to St. Thomas many times and this has been one of our favorite restaurants. Now, admittedly, we havent been to St. Thomas for seven years with the hurricane and pandemic and all. Now that were back we couldnt wait to go to Pesce. What a disappointment! We were seated right away at a great table. Thats when the wheels came off.... About 40 minutes to get our appetizer. Bruschetta, not even anything complicated. Our entrees took another 45 minutes to arrive. Caesar salad which was a head of romaine, cut in half, with dressing on it and some shrimp tossed around. This was $30. My cioppino was basically a few mussels, a few clams, and some shrimp tossed in spicy marinara sauce. Not cioppino at all. And not even a spoon to eat with. This was $49. Our server wasnt very great either. Spend your money elsewhere.
This is the best restaurant on the island. So good that we went back for a second visit during a 5 day vacation.
Best Italian on the island! I would come back to St Thomas just to eat here again. Chicken parmesan, shrimp scampi, margarita pizza all excellent!
Excellent food and service. Josh was very attentive and made some great food suggestions.
Had reservations for a Friday night, just be warned very popular so the food takes a little bit but it is worth it!
Very kind staff. Get the Rosemary Focaccia, its amazing.
What a special Italian restaurant w great ambiance, romantic, feels like Italy. Our waiter was excellent, professional, attentive, always watching over to refill ice cold wAter, drinks! The pasta dish was absolutely delicious w homemade pasta. Truly the best dinner we have had in USVI/BVIs. A Gem. We had Pasta Alfredo w Shrimp and Bolognese. I would have loved to try the Chocolate lava cake that will be next time! I wish I could give this restaurant 6 stars! Thank you for being in Red Hook.
Outstanding service. Top notch. Everyone cared that we were happy. They spoke and stopped to carry on a conversation. We had the mamma Mia margherita. Try one, you wont regret it. Now the food, all fresh ingredients, homemade pasta, homemade polenta, everything cooked fresh and the best food to date that we have had on the island. A must visit. We had the chicken francese and the cioppino and linguine.
Waiter forgot about us and the sauce is uneatable.someone should teach them how to make tomato sauce or just close the place down
Excellent service and food. Thanks for seating us without a reservation! It was Monday so they were very accommodating. The rigatoni bolognese was to die for.
Amazing food
Wonderful food, waiter was great!
6/3/23 Dined in at Pesce last night for the first time in a few years and the food (seafood and chicken Parmesan) was DELICIOUS! Great service and Gluten Free flatbread was terrific too! Thank you for a wonderful meal!
Food was delicious and our waiter Josh was fantastic.
Outstanding Italian selections. Ocean meets inland, delicious. Outstanding service
The food here is amazing! Top notch highly recommend coming here. The ingredients tasted fresh and Everything was delicious. This is the best food we ve had so far in St. Thomas!
Excellent restaurant!
Great good and service, will be back
What a great restaurant especially for the price in such an expensive area!
Food was horrible the meatballs taste like frozen
The food tasted good, but it took too long to get food. We are vegetarian, and we only had pasta with sauce; two tables came after we were done eating by the time we received our food. They were both tables that had more food.
Served by Kelra and she provided us with amazing service! Food was incredible as well. I had mushroom pasta with fish. Most my party was vegetarian and each one of them had several options to choose from. Our waitress Kelra also did a little celebration for my wifes birthday which was nice as I didnt even have to ask for it. I also thought it was a nice touch to remind us that the service gratuity was already included in the bill!
A HUGE Thank You to our server, Kelra! So happy to find Pesce Italian while in St. Thomas! We visited 06/18/2023 and had a delicious dinner. We ordered the Crispy Manicotti (SO DELICIOUS I HAVENT STOPPED THINKING ABOUT IT SINCE!) We also had the Truffle Flatbread, and the Rigatoni Bolognese. This restaurant deserves 100%. Thank you Kelra and Pesce Italian!
Great food plus we can great service and friendly staff
Food was not very good Rubber chicken. Mgr and staff were great but restaurant needs a little help. The brushetta was ok but would perfer no onions. Food
Favorite place to eat when visiting
Make a reservation! We didn t, but luckily for us it s the slow season and they bent over backwards to accommodate us. We had the best server in the joint who we ve now adopted into our family. The drinks were delicious, the appetizers so tasty, and we were all nearly 100% satisfied with our food. Photos don t do it justice because of low lighting. Wheelchair accessibility: Ramp from sidewalk
Saying this place is amazing is a understatement, we have been on island for 3 months and this is hands down the best food we have had! Im trying to think of something to celebrate so I can rush back! My 2 year old is picky an ate all of his Alfredo minus what me an my husband did steal from his plate I had the snapper piccata and it was to die for! My husband had chicken carbonara he was so blown away with it.. we considered ourselves big foodies everything was on point here our server was prompt and sweet without being to overbearing! It was my birthday an our wedding anniversary and Im so glad we picked this place! Great job guys yall are killing it!
Unbelievably great food!
Freakin awesome!!!!!
Good Italian food. The foccacia bread is amazing!
We are visiting from USA, 1 week and we have come back for the second time. The bartender, Remy. Is awesome. The menu has something for everyone and pricing is in line for the Island
Our favorite restaurant! Been coming here for many years and we are having our wedding reception here in 2024! Amazing people and food! You guys are the absolute best! We love you all so much! Thanks for making us feel so welcome!
Pesce Italian is one of 3 restaurants located next to one another near Red Hook. We were able to get a table without a reservation with 8 of us. The wait staff were very helpful and provided timely service. I ate the Veal Marsala and the place was packed by the time we finished eating. The food was good and I have nothing negative to say about the place. It was a nice atmosphere which contrasted with what you see around the island.
Parking can be a challenge so go down to the ferry terminal garage. Wine selection is nice, food excellent as was the service. Nice portions which are easily shared.
The food is so incredibly fresh and delicious, authentic and perfectly seasoned, the wines are paired perfectly with what you want, the dessert was worth all the calories you didn t need but had to have and the service I haven t seen service like this in years! We re still talking about how well we were treated from the time we walked in until the moment we left. I m so grateful we found this gem and we definitely #enjoyed our time, eating authentic Italian food, sipping wine and listening to Frank Sinatra in the background! I personally felt like I was Julia Robert in Eat, Pray, Love. I ate like I hadn t eaten in a while, I prayed and thanked God for all the love that surrounds me every day and I loved this little place! One of my all time favorites. Hope it s yours too
I was surprised how good this place was as I was skeptical of an Italian restaurant in the islands. Food, atmosphere and service were top notch. Highly recommend.
Best mussels juice (sauce) Ive had. And I agree with the staff, Id pour it on old shoestrings and go to work.
Incredible food, wonderful service, and a little card signed by the staff for my wife s and my anniversary.
Fantastic meal. Our server was very knowledgeable and friendly. The food was absolutely delicious and far exceeded our expectations. The staff made my 40th birthday special and memorable. Will definitely return to this restaurant.
A Taste of Italy in the Caribbean. Pesca Italian is a delightful slice of Italy in the US Virgin Islands. The familiar yet charming Italian atmosphere combined with delectable dishes and attentive service made the dining experience truly enjoyable. The food was excellent, capturing the essence of Italian flavors. However, keep in mind that during the busy season, finding parking might pose a challenge. Additionally, it s a bit of a shame that this lovely restaurant doesn t offer a view. Nonetheless, if you re craving authentic Italian cuisine and a cozy, inviting ambiance, Pesca Italian is a fantastic choice.
Did I expect to get great Italian food on a Caribbean island? No. Did I get great Italian food on St Thomas? Absolutely! The muscles in the garlic cream sauce alone are worth the visit. The carbonara was fantastic and I really enjoyed the salmon a la Toscana.
What an awesome experience. The staff was superb. My meal was out of this world good. They make their pasta, all sauces, and all deserts in-house daily, and the outcome is fantastic meal. I had the bruschetta appetizer, eggplant parmesan, and lava cake w chocolate ice cream. The bruschetta was light and tasty, the eggplant was well-prepared, the pasta was perfect, and the sauce delicious. The lava cake and chocolate ice cream was the perfect ending. I can t say enough good things about this experience. You must go if you re visiting St. Thomas!
The handmade pasta was the best Ive had in my life. The staff was friendly and fast.
So good we came back 2 nights in a row. Ant go wrong by eating here.
This restaurant is an absolute must!!!
My wife and I just got back from our honeymoon in St. Thomas, and we went to Pesce two different nights. Both times were amazing! The chicken parm, and Shrimp Scampi were top notch. The service was always on point and the bread (cant remember the name) was a great starter. Highly recommend!
My meal was not too tasty. I had the salmon dish. The salmon was ok, but the rest was not. Not to appealing to look at either. The waitstaff was nice
We eat here at least once per trip. If I remember correctly the bread used to be free with your meal however this time it was a little pricey at 8 bucks. The food was still really good.
Paid $30 for some pasta that tasted like the sauce came out of a can but service and atmosphere was good and the drinks were strong
My husband and I went here 2nd night in St. Thomas and it was phenomenal!! We have spent time in Italy and can tell you these pasta dishes were amazing and most definitely fresh and homemade!! The lava cake for dessert was sincerely the best I ve ever had!! It isn t cheap, but it was well worth it compared to Easterly where we ate the night before. It s all indoor and air conditioned too which is nice and not the norm for the area!
Great Italian food! Had a great dinner
Food was good, atmosphere is okay
The service was amazing as was the food and atmosphere! Would definitely go back the next time we are in st.thomas.
Located in Red Hook, the staff were accommodating to our group of 8 for dinner. We enjoyed the specialty drinks, wine selection, and every dish was prepared well.
So delicious! Always make this our last meal on St Thomas, its our family tradition...Incredible service, fair prices for thr portion sizes, easy to make reservations.
Huge portions great prices
Food was excellent, but service was over 2 hours.
Ok, wish it was open to harbor
Excellent service by Shannon The Food taste very GOOD ! Recommended!! 5 stars
Excellent. You must have a reservation, no waiting time. Food was delicious, on point. Costumer Service, really Good! Shannon was great. If you are looking for a nice dinner and good experience, this is the place.
This place is ridiculous, my husband and I tried to go here for dinner and was ask how long it would take us to eat. So we left, really Im on vacation and have to be ask how long it will take me to eat. We made reservations to dine a couple nights later and we arrived 20 minutes early and was told they werent open yet, ok no problem so we went back outside. We seen people go in so we went back in and was told we dont open for 3 (three) minutes. REALLY just seat me and finish doing what ever you can do in three minutes. ZERO stars.
If I could give a 0 I would. About 6 years ago this restaurant actually had some quality service and food. Since then quality of both food and especially service has gone down drastically. Our waiter yesterday evening was terrible. He was rushing threw everything from the dinner menu to not knowing the wine list. He was extremely rude and arrogant. Plastered my sons coke in front of me next to my wine glass because he was to lazy to actually walk around the table to give it to him. Never checked in after our entrées were served. My husbands risotto was of the consistency of water and absolutely tasteless. My chicken Parmesan was over done and had none to little mozarella or Parmesan on it. Sent it back our waiter wasnt even aware. My husbands food was getting cold. A gentleman surfaced from the kitchen starring right at us. I waived him over asked if he was the manager. He was actually the chef. I said to him you must have seen my chicken Parmesan and he pretty much stated thats how its done. I showed him a picture of there own website of a picture of there chicken Parmesan. He said that must be a 6year old picture. It says right next to picture it was taken 1/22. He was visibly bothered and on the defensive when my husband mentioned the risotto. He said he would go and redo the dishes. Came back out stated the prior risotto had No salt and it was not made to his standards. Needless to say the food we got was not much better. As all of this was happening we saw our waiter attend to a few other tables. He removed a cocktail glass with a half cocktail still in it at the table next to us. No questions asked if the customer was even done yet. You should have seen the customers face! He reached for another customers plate at another table and the customer literary pushed his hands away and took his plate back. Save your money and more importantly your precious time. Between the waiter and chef a miserable experience. Stay away from the waiter with the shaved head! Didnt even tell us his name. I should have asked for the manager however having for close to 3 hours we were exhausted!
The food was good and the drinks were deliciously refreshing. The chicken francese w/ polenta was great. Service was a little slow but other than that n I nothing
Great food but had to wait over an hour for our meal.
The service and food is impeccable! They have delicious pizza , appetizers and meals ! We went there during the week of St Patrick s day and it was very enjoyable! Would highly recommend this place for dinner, appetizers and drinks! Great place!
Very nice ambiance, mediocre food, good service. Vegetarian options: There are specifically vegetarian/vegan options on the menu. I had the risotto. It was good but lacked flavor
Host was a bit stern, waitress was attentive and informative. Food was pretty good but a bit on the salty side Parking: Limited parking in rear
The best italian I ve ever had. The gnocchi was the best gnocchi I ve ever had. Pasta was extremely good. Service was super good, all the waiters were checking in on us and helped us with our requests. I highly recommend going here.
Yum. Fine dining restaurant, dress nice, really good food! The shrimp scampi was the best I ve had in a long time, chicken parm was super good too!! Great service as well!
Excellent Italian food, I had a wonderful time and experience here.
Some of the best Italian Ive had. It easily competes with high end east coast restaurants including NYC.
Surprise find on the island pasta made fresh everyday
Pesce Italian an awesome experience ! Great vibe very romantic place located in Red hook St Thomas . Had a great waitress with great customer service . She made the evening even better . Thank you Janneicia for your great customer service . You definitely are great in customer service . Thank you for making our night great . Guys a must when visiting St Thomas
Great food, Jeneisa our server was awesome!
Pesce is my go to restaurant in STT. This trip we went twice, because after so many horrible meals I had to get a good one. First night we had the bruschetta and meatballs - bruschetta is fabulous, meatballs ok. Then the whole red snapper - divine, and the crispy broccolini is to die for, we had to order a side. And the crème brûlée- takes you to heaven, with the perfectly crunchy lemocello flavored sugar, and the rich custard. Next visit we had the bruschetta again, the snapper Française - delicious. They were out of broccolini the brussels were good and we had the truffle pasta with chicken - a little disappointing as the cabernet sauce overwhelmed the truffle flavor and they chicken was just grilled and added on the side. And of course we had to have the crème brûlée again. The only thing lacking is service - we went late each night, so assume thats why we got the same waiter/bartender, but he has no personality. Thank goodness the food is so good.
Excellent food and service. We ate there twice on our stay. Recommend Veal Milanese and Veal Marsala. The spaghetti and meat balls were a huge hit with our kids. Wine selection was great.
We enjoyed the food, not the service.
We had a nice dinner here. The staff was nice. The food was ok and the location to our hotel was not bad. We expected a little better quality after hearing that everything was made in house.
Wonderful ambiance and great food!
Don t bother. The calamari tasted like it was out of a bag. The Caesar Salad was drowning in dressing. The Veal Marsala that two of us had was like leather drowning in gravy. The Veal Parmigiana was cold, and the parmigiana was hard. I have. I travel for a living and this place was plain old gross.
The food here is amazing. The bartender knows his stuff. By far the best mojito I ve had in St. Thomas
Over priced and food was just ok.
It s of the finer restaurants this side of the island. Hostess was very accommodating. We had our meal at the bar. The bar tender was very focused on providing a good dining experience by guiding us through the wine and entree options. Appetizers and food were excellent. One quick tip is that all plates are served with large portions. If a light eater or not too hungry, you may be better off ordering a plate to share between two.
Food was grade a italian food. Everything was great. No complaints.
Excellent Italian fare in Red Hook / St Thomas! We were tired of eating in our resort and ventured out. The ambiance was romantic and the pricing was $$$. The meatballs, bruschetta, and chicken parm were excellent!
One of our absolute favorite restaurants on St. Thomas. We had the veal marsala, chicken parm, and chicken francese (subbed the polenta with fresh linguine). Every dish was spectacular. Fresh pasta was fantastic and atmosphere was nice. A must try!
We came here for my sons 10th birthday dinner. We were so pleased. Our server Jay was fabulous and the food was to die for! Everything we ordered was fantastic. They were so sweet to my son and made his birthday so special! I would hands down go there again!
Scallop and polenta is absolutely delicious, you gotta try it. Parpadelle and mushroom pasta and Veal marsala super tasty. This was our 2nd time visiting St Thomas and eating at Pesce. Did not disappoint. We will return !!!
