"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."

"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."

"A favorite with many Mo'Bay locals, this no-frills eatery serves Jamaican specialties including some fiery jerk—note that it's spiced to local tastes, not watered down for tourists."

"This joint -- right in the heart of Montego Bay, near Walter Fletcher Beach -- is the best place to go for Jamaica's famous jerk pork and jerk chicken."
