Antigua


It’s often standing-room only in this dining room with tropical murals and a big bar. Expats, locals and yachties descend upon this long-time hangout for upscale comfort food such as breaded calamari with garlic dip, burgers with blue cheese, and creative seafood curries bathed in an aromatic balm of local spices.
