*No need for a reservation, but call if you have a large groupA true Caribbean dive bar with the attitude to match. It’s a place where high and low, locals and tourists, rub elbows and party the night away. Sit at the bar and hear stories told, some true and many not, from around the island and around the world. The “pour your own” happy hour is the best around. That’s right, you get the bottle, glass, mixer, and make you own drink. This is also one of the best-stocked bars on the island, with the usual suspects, as well some unusual ones. Also, the only selection of craft beers on the island, 100+ bottles and draft too. The kitchen makes some of the best casual bar food around. Family friendly most of the day and night, late night is definitely more suited for the “big kids”. The games are always on, they can get anything. You are guaranteed to have a good time no matter when you go.

    My husband and I had dinner at Portofino on June 26th. We loved the service. Our server was very helpful with recommendations from the menu and the food and drinks were delicious. I had the Caesar Salad with homemade dressing and the homemade Potato Gnocchi with Bolognese sauce. Both were excellent. We did not have dessert. I would highly recommend Portofino Restaurant.

    One of our favorite haunts on the island- we make sure to come for drinks and dinner at least once every time we visit Sint Maarten. So excited that they've covered the outdoor area and have plans to expand- it means there will be new things to explore the next time we visit!
