    This was second visit to Pesce and it was as wonderful as the first! Upon driving up, it is an unassuming little building...and when you walk in, it is utterly charming, quiet, intimate atmosphere with kind and courteous hostess. The food was all delicious. In our two visits we had the focaccia bread, bruschetta, shrimp scampi, truffle and mushroom pasta, spaghetti and meatballs and the rigatoni bolognese. We also had the Limoncello creme brûlée. All were freshly prepared and delicious. Our server, Zachia was friendly and very solicitous. Looking forward to our next visit!

    We felt that the value of our meal was not equal to the very small piece of chicken I got with my chicken parmesan.They don't even offer bread before a meal. My husband's meal was not correct and not even fixed..the place is beautiful and it is one of the better restaurants on the island.

    We had a delicious dinner. The snapper piccata was amazing and my husband loved the dismantled lasagna (special). We topped it off with the tiramisu which did not disappoint. I highly recommend Pesce. I can’t wait to go back next time we are in town.

    Certain dishes were very good, the calamari and the snapper piccata. I had the clam linguini and the it was a cream based sauce and not as good as a clear white sauce. The focaccia was unusual and was liked by tow of us. Some bread and marinara sauce would have been very nice to have gratis.

    Had the Snapper was good. They do not provide bread with the meal so we ordered the focaccia with rosemary, very good. Our waiter from Colorado was pleasant and attentive. We eat here every time we are in St. Thomas. Prices are up to $49.00

    Fried zucchini, truffle mushroom parpadelle, and tiramisu were superb. Main criticism, server talked us into adding shrimp to the mushroom parpadelle. They were relatively bland and not worth price ($15 for 4 shrimp). The mushroom parpadelle can stand alone and was absolutely delicious. Our entree took a long time and server gave us complimentary limoncello shots at end of dinner...very lovely dinner date night.

    First time here. We had a 5:30pm reservation. We had the veal marsala and shrimp scampi. For an appetizer we had the bruschetta. The service was prompt and the food was good. I thought this place would be overbooked with 2 cruise ships in port. However it wasn’t. The crowd started coming in around 6:30….. the ambiance was great as well. The dessert menu had a good selection. Overall a positive experience.

    We were welcomed by the maitre d’ as soon as we walked in the door. Seated promptly, got water and menus very quickly. Josh (our sever)was awesome, there when we needed without hovering. Food was awesome. The rosemary focaccia bread appetizer was so good my wife wanted another. I had the artichoke stuffed pepper and they were amazing about leaving the kale out of it. I will have it again and again. Everyone else had fettuccine Alfredo which was delicious and plentiful, even delicious as leftovers.

    Service and ambiance were outstanding. I ordered the shrimp scampi with linguine and it was overloaded with salt and garlic to the point where it burned my mouth. It’s a shame because it could have been an amazing dish. The pasta is made there fresh and the shrimp was cooked perfectly; unfortunately the sauce was basically inedible. The Tiramisu was delicious.

    We were very much looking forward to our dinner out at Pesce and we were not disappointed. The place is very nice inside and the food was delicious. Our biggest drawback was Remy had to act as bartender, waitress and bus person when we were there so it gave us the feeling of being rushed. Remy was doing a great job and truly hustling so it is no fault of her but we didn't feel as if we could talk with our bartender or ask too many questions about the menu. We will be happy to return but hopefully it'll be better staffed
