We went back to Sky's the Limit twice during our trip. I met the owner and got tips on how to cook red snapper back home. I probably could have eaten the bones. The johnny cakes were so good that we went back the next day to wait until they started serving them again (1 pm I think). I even... More

I visited St. Maarten in February. We heard about the lolo's and I also read about them in Fodor's travel book. I knew I needed to try it. When walking by, we were flagged down by this guy named Elvis. He was great! My husband was in the mood for some kind of curry dish and not bbq. He also... More

This was a quick stop for lunch while shopping in grand case. The staff was very friendly and the smells coming from the open grills are great. The ribs and snapper we had were delicious. The price is also great for a quick lunch. And you have to try the Johnny Cakes

My wife and I decided to explore the Grand Case area one evening and found this place. We were greeted on the street by Elvis I believe (not THE Elvis.. but.. yeah) and he did what most merchants and restaurateurs do in SXM and gave us a little schpeel and tried to get our business. He did it well without... More

We had eaten the night before at Talk of the Town and hadn't really meant to eat BBQ two nights in a row. But a guy was working the crowd of passerbyers and approached us. We were tired and hungry from a long beach walk and so we figured -- why not? My husband got the rib plate (a HUGE... More

Great food! Love the owner and she is so nice to talk with. She has a young child and we are always asking about the little one. The food is always good here, she takes a lot of pride in her food and her help too! Nice place to sit, eat and drink away an afternoon in the sun.

Stopped in for a cold beer after scuba diving and was ovecome by the smell of the barbecue. Crazy good. I wasnt hungry but had to order a piece of chicken it smelled so good, and it was. Juicy and spiced just right. Another great LOLO on the french side.

Very strange mix on the plate dinners of macaroni, spaghetti, cole slaw, potato salad, peas & rice and salad along with whatever meat you choose. Selections include chicken, ribs, fish & lobster.. Many local people stopped by for lunch to go while we were there. Seems to be quite popular with them. Service was good and prices fair. My husband... More

Restaurants in Grand Case got very expensive a couple of years back. The big exception is the Lolos, a group of open air restaurants serving fresh fish and BBQ near the bridge. Our favorite of these is The Sky's the Limit, great value and good food. Lots of sides. "Shrimp Food" is our recommendation. Definitely worth a try at least... More

You get a lot with your meal and the atmosphere is very chill. I ordered the snapper meal and it was good. I actually took a doggy bag back to the hotel....just couldn't finish it all. Good place to stop by and grab a bite.
