Frommer's
Eden Bower Rd., Ocho Rios, Jamaica
From $3/night
Fodor's "Evita's commands a wonderful view of Ocho Rios and the sea from its outdoor verandah dining area." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Set on the mountainside above Ocho Rios, this long-standing favorite of both locals and tourists delivers magnificent from the terrace so arrive early to grab a seat."
Rough Guide "The best-advertised (if a little overpriced) pasta and pizza on the north coast, served on a gingerbread verandah overlooking the bay."
Frommer's "You can dine in the wood-floored interior surrounded by paintings, photos of Evita’s many famous patrons, at the mahogany bar (good cocktails)...some dishes are straight-up Italian" Full review
Dickie's Best Kept Secret
Concierge DK Eyewitness Rough Guide Frommer's
Lonely Planet
on the Main Road, Port Antonio, Jamaica
From $0/night
Concierge "Looks can be deceiving, especially when it comes to this driftwood shack teetering on a seaside bluff one mile west of Port Antonio."
DK Eyewitness "Offering an extremely unusual dining option, this restaurant is set in a private home on a cliffside and a short drive from Port Antonio."
Rough Guide Star
"Easily missed as it’s nestled on a knoll as you round the far bend of Port Antonio’s West Harbour, this simple wooden shack is a surprising and fabulous choice."
Frommer's "Dickie Butler’s ramshackle little cottage with a decidedly eclectic homespun decor clings to the edge of a cliff—a bit out of the way, yes, but certainly no secret after 30 years" Full review
Lonely Planet "Almost too well kept a secret for its own good, Dickie’s... offers enormous five-course meals in rooms that look as if they were decorated by Bob Marley." Full review
