4.4 / 5.0(842 reviews)
Absolutely LOVE this place. We've visited Jolly Harbour for the last 10 years and this is one of our favorite places to eat. Great staff and the food is always fresh. Fantastic atmosphere and scenery. We can't wait to go back again in 2026. Delicious seafood. The catch of the day was so tasty and the blackened style made it that much better. The live music was such a vibe! The drummer and guitarist were groovy. Drinks were delicious and service was very kind. Lobster was amazing! You could also smell the pizza doughs being cooked, which is always pleasant. We even experienced a mini earthquake and the staff came to check if we were OK which was nice.

Let me tell you it had one of the best birthday vacation in 2023 and First stop was Al Porto for drinks, table reservations were easy and free.. I enjoyed the pizza and rum punches.. The staffs were friendly, On the Night of my Birthday W family/ guest there was a live local band, dinner and cocktails were very good! Wish l could upload video. Enjoy it!

We visited at Saturday lunchtime. The food was fine (just a chicken wrap but very tasty). Good cocktails- a good old Rum Punch and a Painkiller. What lets this place down is the service. We have come across so many friendly restaurant staff in Antigua who have e been warm and welcoming. Here they could hardly raise a smile. If you don’t like your job- find a new one!! Would struggle to come back as the ambience is as necessary as the food
