Dinner at Ivan's, I might pass on it

[Flipadelphia26]

We have had a few very nice meals at Ivans. Both romantic, and with friends. Is it a little bit more expensive than what you can get for something similar elsewhere? Sure. But the dining area, the vibe and the atmosphere is great. We try and eat there at least once per visit.

Sazo so glad to hear the dinner went well, I'm still scoring brownie points after 14 months removed from the 100 candle dinner! Enjoy your wedding day, while we were there last year I actually performed a renewal of vows for our good friends, I became a licensed Minister online. It was so much fun to be a part of it, I know you will make your special day memorable!

So, besides Canoe, which restaurants have fresh caught fish? When you go to a Caribbean destination it's nice to eat it We enjoyed our meal at Ivan's last year, but felt that it was a bit over rated. We love Canoe and Chill Awhile, Rockhouse, Hungry Lion, Tony's Jerk, Best in West, Kuyaba for pepper shrimp. This year I would like to try LTU and maybe Pushcart, Presley's possibly. May go back to Ivan's as well.

Country Country has fresh fish on their menu the nights they have fish (not sure if they serve fish everyday). I have often seen the fisherman come to shore and clean his catch on their beach and then make a deal with the chef.

Sorry it did not live up to the hype. I'm here now and things are as great as they usually are. Jerk Penne Pasta soon come.

I like Catcha and my friends love it there and like the vibe at the resort. My Friends have stayed there several times. It is just the restaurant is not for me especially at dinner time. Next time we are in Negril we will give them another chance to change my mind. It just does not have the local feel, more commercialized, reminds me of just any beach restaurant here in the states. It is pretty and you can get some nice pictures there.

Don't beat yourself up Living. There are a couple of places that people rave about here that i find really ordinary or less but I would be burned at a stake if I mentioned their names. To each their own. You seem to have found your favourites. Enjoy

I agree totally! Everyone has their own personal favorite foods and vibes. If everyone loved the same place....there would be few choices. Freedom of choice is what life is all about. On one night, I might want low key, which is generally my favorite vibe!! But, occasionally, an upscale venue fills the bill. So don't worry yourself...all is good when in Negril. Plenty of choices to be had!! Quite frankly, I can't wait to have all those choices in front of me.

hey booger, is Nicolette still a server at Catcha? She is a good server. I've been to Ivans for dinner about twenty times through the year, always thoroughly enjoyed it. Last time, the lobster was 32 USD and 22 USD at Seastar Inn. I think the average is about 25 on the hill.
