The Twisted Cork Cafe

my sister and i came here after traveling back to the states. everything from the atmosphere to the service to the food was AMAZING. our server was wonderful — gave us great recommendations on the menu/wine list & even called us a taxi :) i highly recommend stopping in here for an intimate dinner or just a casual afternoon. i hope to be back next time i’m in St Thomas!

vegan crab cake is delicious. a must try

The restaurant had a warm, inviting atmosphere, from the minute you step in. The staff greeted us at the door with friendly smiles and sat us in a cozy corner booth. We enjoyed appetizers, (soup and garlic bread), mains course (seafood pasta & seared lion fish) and dessert. Our mouths were watering the entire time. Definitely going back again!

It started out badly when the hostess asked if we had reservations, we didn't have . (Place was all but empty ) she lets out a gasp and says follow me and seats us . We waited 20 minutes for water and menus .Waitress /hostess was quite annoyed we ordered 3 Diet Cokes instead of alcohol or wine and she made a snide comment about our choices . My wife ordered iced tea ,she said it would take about 5 minutes to make some. ( it never arrived).ordered apps and dinner Stuffed mushrooms and garlic bread took 45 minutes for our apps to arrive but Both apps were excellent. Our dinners followed another 45 minutes later and the dinners were good also .
we Never had our drinks refilled one time.
When we were done eating we had to go up front and ask for our bill. No one checked to see how the food was or clear plates . then we had to wait while the bill was corrected and take the Iced tea off . All together two hours and 20 minutes to have a simple dinner. We were made to feel like a complete imposition. didn't wanna leave a tip at all but we left 11% on our $210 bill. kudos to the owner in the back we heard he was cooking. As Business owners ourselves if we had an employee that was treating our customers this way we want to know about it. there was never more than three or four tables in the restaurant all evening with people. It's One thing if service is slow and they're really busy. This just wasn't the case. The hostess waitress was probably in her 50s thin-and she was wearing a low cut top of some sort.

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!

My friends and I walked into this "café" thinking it was a coffee shop and man were we in for a surprise. This elegant place served up some delicious food. I highly recommend the vegan crab cake, it was arguably better than authentic crab cake. 10/10 recommend.

Beth was amazing. Dinner was great - wine selection is surprisingly broad. We ordered one of each dessert… chocolate torte won best overall.

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.

The Twisted Cork in French Town was an unexpected delight. Our dinner plans fell through and we found this restaurant at the last minute. Wonderful food. Great desserts. Extensive wine menu. And a happy, family-oriented atmosphere.

I love twisted cork for many reasons. My top are for their chicken piccata, open on Monday when most places are closed, and a great wine selection. Go here!

Best snapper on the island. Nice ambiance.
