There were no ships in dock so it was pretty quiet for lunch. My waitress was nice, although seemingly inattentive. No big deal though, I figured it was just the laid back island attitude. The bartender was very nice. Each entree came with three sides. I had the conch creole with the local stuffing, rice and peas, and vegetables. The... More

Good food. Try the shrimp creole. Very busy at lunch, staff nice but not very attentive.

I went to Cuzzin's in a group of four people. We each ordered the ox tails & had different side dishes. All of our reactions were the same. The food there was not that great it was just ok. Our food was warm not hot. The ox tails were big but they hardly had any meat on them. The potatoes... More

I tried Cuzzin Nemo, jerk chicken and 4 other dishes. It tasted okay to good but nothing great. The service is just atrocious and the attitude is just down right nasty with short temper to diners who I thought were reasonable to deal with. I do like their drinks and atmosphere and it's well recognized by the locals.

Cuzzins is The Place to eat, especially downtown. I have never enjoyed their rival, Gladys. No comparison. Cuzzins is on Back Street, perfectly fine during the day, but take a cab and have him wait for you at night. Don't wander at night. This is an easy place to get to from the Main shopping street. It's one block over,... More

We went to St Thomas last week on a trip and stoped in for a bite and a drink. Granted the air conditioning was nice but the service very slow; the food below average.The waitress acted as if she were still recovering from a very long night. We will return to St Thomas but skip Cuzzins.

We had a wonderful experience at Cuzzin's. When we got there, we were nervous about where we had parked (tow zone?). So the bartender went outside with my husband and showed him where we could safely park. He even moved the car for my husband (the hill was very steep!). Service was great and prompt. We had conch fritters...excellent! My... More

My partner and I were looking for a restaurant in the heart of Charlotte Amalie that was not your typical tourist trap and specialized in local cuisine. A local merchant referred us to Cuzzins and we could not be happier that we checked it out. I had the special of the day - Jerk Chicken and my partner had the... More

Cuzzin's is one block off of Main St. in Charlotte Amalie. We walked in because it started raining and it was time for lunch. It was a pleasant surprise. The menu had plenty of local items that you didn't see at the hotel restaurants. The place was crowded but the wait staff was efficient and friendly. We had a ceviche... More

Was suggested by someone to go, left a bit disappointed. I am sure Caribbean food is better but may be they are not trying as hard now.
