Through all my reaches, I've never visited the Italian restaurant at Mariposa, but I've been meaning to ever since a long-time returnee at the Bar B Barn told me it's the BEST place on the 7 mile for dessert .... Any thoughts? Who has been to this place? And where are the amazing places for dessert in Negril?
at one point in time i would not hesitate to say it was the best trained staff in negril, and one of the best on the island.
food was exemplary, the kitchen on point, and for whatever else one might say about the owner, my dinners there were always exemplary and impressive.
i have not been back since his death, so i don't know what it is like since.
it was to my knowledge, the one place in negril that had real muzzarella, for example.
however, for straight up coffee and desert, my nod goes to sunrise club or sometimes kuyaba.
My daughters and I ate dinner one time at Mariposa, more to come in from the rain than anything else, but was very pleased with the dinner and service, I do remember that, but it's been four years so can't tell you very much about it recently, sorry.
We usually have our anniversery dinner there each year.
One year I actually got a well prepared piece of veal....in Jamaica...go figure.
Desserts are special... Banana's Foster...yum.
If you are planning on dinng at Mariposa this month I regret to inform you that they are closed and will reopen sometime (forgot the date) in July.
Well, there goes that. So where is the best dessert place on seven mile?
Iam not sure about the best place in Negril But if you have not tried Charela In on the beach
Then you should
They do all their pastry and icream there on property
they do have a very wide choice
for me their blackforest is the best also their choice of icream and sorbet
Great question! Been a long time since I've eaten a dessert on the beach. But I'm always up for something sweet.Quote:

Kuyuba.
if mariposa is out, then you can find some great deserts at catcha (i know you said beach but hey nobody seems to read what people write anyway), sunrise club (also some great breakfast crepes which are also available as desert and the best espresso and cappucino- i usually make it a point to get an affogato- chocolate gelato with an espresso shot poured over it) and as caribsoul mentions kuyaba which i think also got mentioned before.
also pushcart and rockhouse have some good desert items, some puddings and cakes.
you can also pop into most of the liTTle shops and such and scoop up tons of sweets and pastries.
i'm sure plenty of places have a little undiscovered desert chef on staff doing their thing, negril inn had one of the best back in the day.
The best dessert I had in Negril was at Charela.
My vote would be Charlea Inn.....
We enjoy Mariposa...the food and service has ALWAYS been outstanding! They have good wines there too.
