MamaParrotHead Posted August 13, 2010 #2 Share Posted August 13, 2010 Lots of rave reviews for the Wet Lizard, RIGHT where you get off the tenders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare crewsweeper Posted August 13, 2010 #3 Share Posted August 13, 2010 I would second the Wet Lizard...conch fritters, meat pies, Belkin beer..Yumm!! If you go out of the TV and make a right, there is the Smokey Mermaid in the Great House on Fort Street, but it's a bit expensive and recent reports of not being worth the $$. If you go left out of the TV and brave the tour hawkers, theres a sandwich place, Hungry Parrot or some such, but who comes to Belize to eat ersatz Subway? Across the swing bridge, there are a couple of small Belizean cafes/shops. You can read their menu on their signs. Interesting selections, to say the least. Certainly indigenous food:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

addicted2cruizin Posted August 14, 2010 #5 Share Posted August 14, 2010 We enjoyed Mamasitas. It is also in the port area near the tender drop off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADL3 Posted August 14, 2010 #6 Share Posted August 14, 2010 I wouldn't recommend where we ate-- it was fine, but nothing special at all. My problem is that I can't remember the name and I am hoping someone here will know. It was over the water, next to the Harbor View Restaurant (which is closed, I think). Bar in the middle, tables around the perimeter, people sign the walls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruznlobo Posted August 21, 2010 #7 Share Posted August 21, 2010 That's the Wet Lizard...We had good cold beer and good food last time we went. Going back in January. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ren1216 Posted August 21, 2010 #8 Share Posted August 21, 2010 Is the only seating available all upstairs? I have 2 older ladies in my group and those stairs would be a problem for them. Do they have any seating on the ground level? Really would like to try lunch there.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ren1216 Posted August 22, 2010 #10 Share Posted August 22, 2010 Thank you for that suggestion! I tried, no luck... I get an error msg when I try to use the contact form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruznlobo Posted August 22, 2010 #11 Share Posted August 22, 2010 It's funny. I don't remember a downstairs. When we went there was a sign pointing up the stairs saying Wet Lizard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tandemcruzr Posted August 22, 2010 #12 Share Posted August 22, 2010 Thank you for that suggestion! I tried, no luck... I get an error msg when I try to use the contact form. Sorry -- didn't work for me either. :( Their Home Page makes reference to a "boardwalk bar." Don't know if it serves food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mommie922 Posted August 24, 2010 #13 Share Posted August 24, 2010 Is the only seating available all upstairs? I have 2 older ladies in my group and those stairs would be a problem for them. Do they have any seating on the ground level? Really would like to try lunch there.... I don't think there is seating down stairs. I don't know the name of the resturant that is located across the walk area from Wet Lizard (on the water side), but it was reccommended to us by our excurtion driver thru Island Marketing. If you are unable to get to the upstairs resturant you may want to try there. Have a wonderful vacation! Happy cruising! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ADL3 Posted August 31, 2010 #16 Share Posted August 31, 2010 Thanks! Those pictures are the restaurant where we ate. Sandpiper, huh? I liked the ambiance, but like I said... wasn't that excited about the food. Just okay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
