The Tamarind Court Restaurant and Bar is an island classic.

Meet our new dinner chefs — Kristine Hacker and Jason Hall. With Caribbean roots (Kristine is from St. Thomas, Jason’s family from Jamaica), they serve up what they call “comfort food for the soul.”

It’s an eclectic mix of dishes — blackened fish, bell peppers stuffed with sausage, lemon chicken pasta, crab cakes with shrimp, and more. Plus smoked BBQ on select nights! It’s fashioned with ingredients so local the greens and tomatoes sometimes come from Kristine’s mom’s garden on St. Thomas.

Dinner hours are 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. Monday through Friday.

In the mornings, the Tamarind dishes up "St. John's best breakfast," as voted by the readers of the Virgin Island Daily News. We specialize in classics such as omelets and French toast, steak and eggs, biscuits and gravy and the on-the-go favorite, the breakfast burrito.

On weekends we do our famous “Benny specials” — eggs benedict, florentine and blackstone.

Breakfast is 7 to 11 a.m. Monday to Saturday; Sundays 7 a.m. to noon.

Our locals-favorite bar is open daily all day long, so stop on by the Tamarind!
