"It may look like a misplaced paddleboat from the Mississippi—or a tourist trap—but this floating double-decker eatery serves terrific food, and to a mostly local crowd."
Frommer's
"The setting for this unusual and very laid-back restaurant is a houseboat built around 1960 that floats at permanent anchor from a pier beside Freeport Road."

"Half the fun of eating at The HouseBoat is the location: a floating restaurant that’s permanently moored (and softly rocking) at a pier overlooking the Montego Bay Marine Park."

"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."

"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"
