    Hands-down the best restaurant on the west end. We stayed in half Moon Bay and ate at Lorettas SEVERAL Times throughout our stay. We wanted to try other restaurants but every single time we did it didn’t compare to the quality of her cooking! It is a simple and quaint restaurant and truly a family business. They are kind and so helpful with anything you need or with any questions you have. You can definitely feel the love! I highly recommend the blackened fish! That’s pretty much what I ate almost every day. We also got the coconut fish and lobster and they were Great as well! My friends said to try to the curry as well . Loretta should start doing cooking classes! I will definitely sign up ! We would literally stay on this side of the island and nearby the restaurant just eat here next trip!

    We went for dinner and this was our first time and unfortunately it will be our last. CASH only! I ordered their “famous” lobster pasta. My wife ordered the breaded fish “red snapper” with beans and plantains “tajadas” and we ordered the cheeseburger and fries and chicken Alfredo. The two pasta sauces tasted like they came from a jar or can and were uneditable for our liking. We both ate two bites and stopped. The red snapper was ok but the egg batter was too overpowering. The cheeseburger was good and fries were cut fresh and really good. We ordered coca it shrimp for an appetizer and they were good. Fresh Limeade was really good but we all left hungry except the person who ordered the cheeseburger. We had high hopes based on others reviews.

    Everything I had was delicious! Caribbean curry chicken, rice, red beans, fried plantains, chicken stew… Generous portions for a good price. Warm and friendly service.

    We had the grilled lobster and shrimp. It was delicious. They don't serve alcohol so we brought a chilled bottle of white to go with the seafood. Only four tables so can be tough to get a seat during busy hours.

    I was little concern at the beginning since when we got there it was empty plus price were a little high for been a local Place but totally worth it. The restaurant started to get more busy, we ended ordering 3 different dishes to tasty them. I ordered curry chicken, mom the stew chicken and hubby ordered the garlic calamari with rice and beans. All the plates came out in about 10-13 min and let me tell you, they were DELICIOUS. Totally worth the price and wait cause oh my… we ate it ALL. Only disclaimer since I didn’t read the whole post from previous users is that, it’s cash only so please be aware of that.

    Solid local place on the north side of West End. The group had the chicken curry, grilled shrimp, grilled chicken and chicken Alfredo pasta. The portions were generous without being too large and the sides were tasty. Worth checking out if you're up this way. Note they're cash only.

    I am in Roatan now for the past 4 days and I've been trying to make it here. First night was too late then the next day we walked over there and it was closed by 6:30. Yesterday we got in too late again. Today I messaged them on WhatsApp at 6 and thankfully they were open. My daughter wasn't even that hungry. But I really wanted to try this place based on so many recommendations. I'm so glad I got the chance. I wanted everything on the menu but I settled for the curry chicken and rice and beans and my daughter got coconut shrimp with rice and Plantains. The portions are generous. The food was delicious, service was excellent and it was so inexpensive. I probably could eat here every day if it were up to me. I don't think my daughter would be happy. But u surely would be.

    We ate here several times during our stay in Roatan. Food was delicious every time. Totally loved the outdoor dining. I had the fried chicken, baked potato, and fried plantains. It was beautiful and perfect. He had the fried shrimp, beans, and rice. It was also amazing. A great place with wonderful people.

    This rating is for their breakfast. I thought it was OK breakfast but price too high for what I got. I got the American Hash Browns Meal $10 that the menu says has hash browns, bacon, beans and eggs. (See if of menu). I want to support local businesses like this and I think they could improve. I received plate with no beans although the menu says it includes it. When I asked about it they said the menu was wrong and it doesn't have beans. Would have been nice to know that before so I know what I am ordering for the price. I'm just following the menu. (See pic of my menu) So ok, I decide to add an order of beans then since I wanted it and I paid $2 extra and it was a super small amount. And it was like 2 spoon fulls! In Roatan, beans are pretty cheap so I was a little shocked at this. So a breakfast for the amount $14 after coffee, you can get a lot more for that in Roatan west end restaurants and thought this was overpriced.

    Amazing, amazing, ah freaking amazing! My husband and I only eat at local restaurants when we travel and Loretta is delicious. Highly recommend the coconut fish, coconut shrimp and fried calamari with rice and beans. A must try when in west bay, Roatan! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    Amazing food- you MUST try the giant coconut shrimp, get the grilled lobster (always fresh) was the best we've had yet. Also, try the curry chicken- so flavorful. Yes, it's outside but there are fans and everything is cooked from scratch so it takes a little bit but totally worth it!

    Fried chicken was really good. The lobster was very good as well. Reasonable prices and very friendly staff.

    I went to this place and tried the conch in garlic sauce, rice and beans, and fries. The garlic sauce was really good. I highly recommend it. The server was friendly and accommodating.

👍👍 Not just chocolate! They now do breakfast... and lunchtime Indian Food specials at great prices (might have bought the entire Indian Food menu to take home on the ferry to Utila -- was not disappointed, will do it again). Many reasons to stop by. Conveniently located on the main strip in West End...

👍 Restaurant is right on the beach. It also has a view of the beach and a grocery store on the lower level. The food was ok. The rice and chicken could have used a little more seasoning.
