Where to eat Caribbean food in Margarita Island: The Best Restaurants and Bars
Reviews on Caribbean food in Margarita Island, Insular Region, Venezuela. Located about 25 miles from the mainland and accessible via air or ferry, Venezuela's mountainous Margarita Island provides Caribbean-style beaches and access to windsurfing, golf, horseback riding and scuba with a laid-back South American vibe. It's comprised of two islands connected in the middle by the mangrove-filled lagoon of La Restinga National Park. Most development falls on the isle's eastern side around busy Porlamar, the capital La Asunción and colonial Pampatar, founded in 1535.

A fresh and charming very tropical place where your lunch and dinner become a unique experience!

The restaurant is nice and the food - especially the seafood - is great. However, prices are a bit high, which on the other hand is not really unusual for a tourist hotspot like Margarita.

Was pleasantly surprised by Carlos Guerra new enterprise. The "camiguana" small fried fish to start were excellent, and my wife's "Arroz con Raya" original rice pot also very good. The setting, the furniture and the menu very original. Will return.The Rums offered are Venezuelas best . A mango "compota" with powdered "casabe" plus candied papaya also excellent.Thank you for your comment. For all Guillermina's team it is a pleasure to receive this kind of messages. We all work to make you feel the best way and we look forward to you and your wife coming Guillermina's home soon.

The best fish soup of my island. The name is "hervido de pescado " . The fish is always fresh and amazing quality. Its not fancy but great. The traditional deserts are delicious . I always take natural juices there.

...but it should not influence the food quality, maybe the prices. One of the few places that serves traditional Margariteño food, best Pastel de Chuzo in Venezuela (no wonder, Ruben has invented this dish...).

We just left the restaurant and we were robbed outside the restaurant. We were approached by a guy who we assumed was the guard watching the car. No one walked with us from the restaurant and when i tipped the guy, he grabbed my friend's necklace and ran away. We are very disappointed from the restaurant behavior which sent no one with us to assure our safe departure. The car was about 20 yards from the restaurant but no one bothered to walk with us. It was about 11:00 pm at night and we are extremely shaken by the incident. This is not th first time that I hear about robbers targeting this restaurant

We actually stayed in the hotel attached to the restaurant. The restaurant was to a high international standard with excellent quality food cooked in creative ways. The chef seems very aware of different textures needed for a good meal. The menu had lighter options and a fair range of dishes. The wines are excellent - particularly the reds and at very fair prices. One day we took a passion fruit and a mango in and asked the chef to 'do something' with them. He outdid himself with a wonderful fruit creation that he made in just 10 minutes! The atmosphere is relaxed but highly professional. We tried other places on the island but nothing matched.

This place is the best in El Yaque. I have tried almost all restaurants and with all of them, they have a challenge with supplies so that a lot of the things on the menu are not available. Besides that none of them is really reliable when it comes to opening times. They close or open whenever they feel like. Sharks does not do that. Service is excellent, friendly and quick. The food is fab and i looove the cocktails. Due to the exchange rates, the prices are unbeatable. Their selection of seafood is great and the presentation too. Try the tuna and the sirloin steak from the grill and the pastas!!

After so many years I finally visited Margarita Island and tried, twice, this amazing traditional restaurant. The food is simply extraordinary, with great combinations and variations of traditional Venezuelan dishes, such as "asado negro" and "bollo navideño". There are so many nice things to say about this restaurant that is hard to know where to start, from the beautiful historic house where the restaurant is located in Pedro Gonzalez, to the kindness of the entire staff, in particular Chef Esther Gonzalez, who spend a lot of time explaining the dishes in detail and making us feel right at home. This is a truly authentic restaurant that I strongly advice anyone visiting the island to go and enjoy. A must visit. Highly recommended!!!!
