This was one of our top places to eat and drink, not only for the food but also for the great views. It is also nice that they have easy parking too.

The food is excellent and portions are nice. However, they are a bit pricey. It's also hard to get a parking place here, though you can park nearby and walk if the few spaces available are taken.

My husband and I loved the atmosphere and the food here. A great assortment of fish was on the menu nightly, from flounder to snapper to Caribbean Lobster, cooked to order, be it grilled, fried, or sautéed. Possibly this restaurant has the largest variety of fish of any restaurant along the boardwalk. I recommend you try the yucca with garlic... More

Very nice and relaxed atmosphere suitable for couples, families, groups of friends... Food is great! Service is fast and friendly. Good lobster! Nice location by the malecon but not in the center of all the noice from the other bars. We recommend!

If you want consistantly good food with great service, then I recommend the Trade Winds. They have a wide variety of offerings with nightly specials and island specialties such as Mofungo and Paella. The chef and staff have been working together for quite some time and they have developed a great rapport that extends to the patrons. I always recommend... More

Without the amusements. There is a nice strip of quaint hotels and burger shacks, but the Trade has the best food here. If your going to the bay to see the dinoflagelite at night, stay here. They will arrange for pick up. English speaking and accomodating owners.

We were a big group, 14 of us. I thought that would pose a problem, but it actually wasn't. The food was ok along with the service. However, the conch fritters were amazing! The haddock was good too, but nothing special. The outside seating is great. Nice breeze and if it wasn't dark, I'm sure the view would be nice... More

This restaurant has been around a long time. Great beach-side view, good, friendly service. Wonderful broiled lobster, fabulous vegetable quinoa dish, to which you can add seafood. Drinks served in Mason jars. Not trendy, just delicious food.
