The lime N' Dine feature highlights restaurants around the BVI. It not intended to be a restaurant review but more of a personal dining experience of the writer.
We hope you find this feature both interesting and helpful.
Rustic Dining At Cruzin'
- Melissa Woodley
Amongst the shady trees in quiet Carrot Bay you will find a colorful restaurant serving up creative dishes using the freshest ingredients. Open for lunch and dinner, Tuesday through Sunday, Cruzin's few garden tables are regularly filled with hungry locals and tourists who know that good food can be found in small places.
Situated just across the road from the sea, diners can enjoy the sunset over Jost Van Dyke while perusing the menu of inspired dishes unique to Cruzin', like savory Garlic Shrimp Crepes - a Caribbean twist on a French staple.
Nightly specials keep the menu fresh and interesting, but favorites like Chicken in Sun-Dried Tomato Sauce and Surf & Turf are often featured. Local West Indian delights including pumpkin soup, conch, curries, patties, and rotis can be enjoyed as well as standards like salads, pastas, burgers and thin-crust pizzas made to order and straight from the oven.
Get there early for before-dinner drinks and you may spot the local fishermen bringing in their catch just down the road - it's only fitting that fresh local fish is also a staple of the menu.
Cruzin's emphasis on all things handmade and homemade can be seen not only in the rustic pizza, but also in the fresh breads as well as the decadent chocolate dessert. Not willing to overlook anything, Cruzin' features a selection of genuine English beers and ales, as well as tropical drinks and wines. So order a drink, relax, and let the stress roll away.
Cruzin' is open from noon until 9:30pm.
