This is as run-down a shack as you can find - but it's great! Their portions are large, they've got great ice cream and strong drinks. Be sure to go for Wednesday's Paella Night! Excellent Paella by a friendly chef who runs around with a headlamp attached to his bandana.

Enjoyed breakfasts, and dinners at Belly Buttons. Usually offered a breakfast special i.e. banana bread French Toast, or Banana pancakes. Great breakfast sandwiches made on local bread. Good service, friendly wait staff. Also loved their Paella night on Wednesdays, but make sure you make reservations ahead of time, great paella and very entertaining chef who makes it, lots of fun.... More

Wife and I had lunch at BBs while driving the island. I had an "Angus" burger w/fries, and my wife a Greek salad w/ grilled chicken. I think the grill needed a little attention as the burger had a distinctive greasy taste and the chicken had no color as if it had not been broiled enough and had little flavor.... More

They make lunch while you eat breakfast...whats better than banana pankcakes while they make you a wonderful lunch. one of the waitresses was not so pleasant but I think she'e leaving to go back home soon. Also there were a few undesirable people lingering which tool away from the experience, but overall amazing..

Good egg sandwiches, nothing fancy. Great view as with anyplace in Esperanza. Friendly service. Wish they stayed open later.

We stopped for a quick bite and the hardest decision we had to make was should we sit at a table (the surface) that was dirty, dirtier or dirtiest. They feature a barbecue of which the accumulated residue was caked on the tables. You could scrape it off with your butter knife. We stayed because we had heard the homemade... More

I've seen really mixed reviews of this place. However, the ribs were spectacular. Decent price for the serving size...a half rack and i still took tomorrow's lunch home. Service was okay. The mango smoothie was excellent. Nice location. Super casual.

We had to fight for a table (not their fault), but they took a long time to promise us that we could get breakfast because we arrived around 10:45... very close to the 11am cut-off. After some haggling, they agreed. That was slightly annoying, but we got over it. They waited over 10 minutes to take our order and another... More

We somehow spent $50 for lunch here having: 1-Caesar salad that was tiny and mediocre (compare infinitely better at Duffy's) 2-2 PB&J for kids, that were what they sound like. We subbed tomatoes for fries and got two sad slices of tomatoes 3-a very good tunafish sandwich, 4-two milks, and two frozen fruit smoothies. Duffy's down the road has much... More
