Most British Virgin Islands' restaurants catch their own seafood and will be happy to tell you where and how it was caught. The local specialty, the spindly but huge Anegada lobster, is delicious and worth ordering at least once. For dinner at any of the following it's advisable to call ahead and make a reservation.
