1864 The Restaurant, situated in Mongoose Junction on St. John in U.S. Virgin Islands
The atmosphere was very cozy and inviting, setting a nice tone for the evening. For appetizers, we ordered oysters, conch fritters, chicken potstickers, and mussels—a delicious variety to start. The main dishes included buttermilk fried chicken, jumbo stuffed shrimp, sausage and seafood risotto in red sauce, and macaroni and cheese. While the options for main courses were somewhat limited, the flavors were satisfying. Dessert was banana cheesecake, which rounded out the meal nicely.
Service was good, but it felt a bit rushed, as if they were eager to turn the table. Despite this, the experience was enjoyable overall and worth a visit.
