Ate lunch here while staying at blue waters inn up the road. Waited more than an hour for our food and when it came it was lukewarm. Servers were rude, a big tour group came in after we ordered and threw the place into confusion. Wouldn't recommend it. Food was relatively expensive, no alcohol.

The food and atmosphere at Jemma's were lovely as usual but the service has left a bitter taste in my mouth. When we got to the restaurant our table had been given away. Having been accomodated at another table, a healthy dose of sea salt was applied to the injury as it took a full hour for menus to arrive... More

Jemma's is on the northeast coast of Tobago, perhaps 30km or so from Scarborough. It offers authentic local cuisine at a reasonable price. As a party of four, we each selected a different entre from their chicken/seafood offerings. There was no dissatisfaction with our choices which included two styles of chicken, kingfish and creole shrimp. We received a family sized... More

Maybe I had my hopes set a little high after my husband had been here seventeen years ago. The menu is extensive. Lobster is $300 TT. I had curried fish $120 TT and my husband had curried shrimp $130 TT. The portions were small (I had four bites of fish) but the side dishes were plentiful and served family style.... More

What a shame this visit was. I get the feeling that people on tours are bottom of the pecking order here. Our waitress was sullen, hardly said two words and wouldn't even look in our direction. The restaurant itself was gorgeous, set in the hollows of a tree with views onto the beach and sea beyond. It has everything it... More

Went here with a group of ladies right after Carnival in Trinidad. The fried king fish, fritters, rice, salad, and macaroni pie were absolutely delicious. Unfortunately, I did not greet the gorgeous guy (who was with a group of friends) in the white tank who sat at the head of the table as he exited the restaurant.

It's impossible for me to rate this restaurant because after waiting to be served for fifty five minutes we gave up and left. We did get a soft drink through...but this was after a twenty minute wait. When after half an hour I went down to the kitchen to see what was happening to our order I was assured that... More
