What are some of your favorite casual dining options? Most days we enjoy staying on the beach or at the pool for as long as possible (can't do that back home so we take full advantage while on the island LOL) and like to opt for a more casual/laid-back meal after a long day in the sun. Suggestions? We will be there for 11 days. TY

We love casual dining -- Fat Tony's in Cupecoy has many specials, Dinghy Dock, Driftwood Beach Bar, The Sand Bar, Mark's Place just to name few. Any of the Italian restaurants serving pizza would be a good option too. I'm sure many other's will comment. There are so many places to eat and so little time, you will run out of days long before dining options! Read through some trip reports too -- you can read about many more options. Enjoy!

Where are you staying? Might influence the suggestions

Edit: Never mind...saw in your other post you are at BSV

I like Lee's and Buccaneer Beach Bar, Captain's Rib Shack SB Yacht Club for starts....all in the same area

Along with some others mentioned, recommend the Greenhouse and Bar Code. Also, you can pick up sandwiches to either take to the beach, or for a casual dinner, at places like Zee Best, which makes a really good made to order sandwich. Enjoy!

orders.sx is the SXM version of Doordash/Uber Eats. They deliver from several area restaurants, some in Maho. Reliable service and reasonable prices.We used them several times during our recent stay.

At BSV you are walking distance to Maho so many options available. I would recommend cheeseburgers, gyros and pizza and rum punch at Driftwood and avoid the place at the other end of the beach.

I would add MARYS BOON to the list of casual restaurants. Just down the beach from BSV , we love the mahi-mahi or Thai curry chicken is good. Good prices and seaside dining room. Also maybe the dining PALMS in SIMPSON Bay.
