Blue Eleven delivers an exceptional tasting menu that beautifully showcases creativity, balance, and Caribbean influence with refined technique. From the first bite to dessert, every course felt thoughtful and indulgent.

The evening began with a jalapeño cucumber sauce paired with tuna tartare, a bright and refreshing opener with just the right amount of heat to awaken the palate. This was followed by a standout lobster course with herb cheese sauce and coconut biscuit—rich, comforting, and perfectly balanced by subtle sweetness.

The strip steak with banana mash, white cheddar, and tamarind sauce was bold and satisfying, marrying savory depth with a hint of tropical tang. A beautifully composed seafood course of snapper and scallop with kalaloo sauce—a fragrant blend of spinach, okra, coconut milk, fish broth, and spices—was both soulful and elegant.

The short rib with potato mash and onion ring delivered classic comfort done impeccably well, while the snapper in red pepper butter sauce with conch highlighted local flavors with finesse. Another highlight was the lamb chop with red lentil coconut curry, wine reduction, and basil, a deeply layered dish that was aromatic and perfectly cooked.

The tasting menu continued to impress with halibut accompanied by kasava (yuca) foam and passion fruit butter, offering a beautiful contrast of earthy and bright flavors.

Dessert was the perfect finale: a donut with whipped cream, mango caramel sauce, and espresso ice cream—playful, decadent, and incredibly satisfying.

Blue Eleven’s tasting menu is a true culinary journey that celebrates local ingredients, bold flavors, and expert execution. An absolute must-visit in the US Virgin Islands for anyone seeking an elevated and memorable dining experience.

Our host Jerry and Moses were incredible – checking on us frequently and making sure we were having a great time.

Lovely chef’s tasting menu. Each dish was infused with Caribbean flavors and ingredients. Everything was exceptional, including the service. One person in our party has a severe fish and seafood allergy and they adapted the tasting menu to accommodate. Such a great find!

First off, please don’t pick this restaurant if you are expecting large portions! This place is about the flavor profile! The beauty of combining various flavor profiles in to a delectable dish. It’s a tasting menu, not a let’s feed our child nuggets and give us large portions of fish or beef. This place is low key eclectic with its own quirks. I would say from a flavor profile it was almost on par with French Laundry Caribbean style, again low key fine dining. It allowed you to taste the delicacies of what the island offers from cassava, plantains, wahoo, among other items. Yes, it’s expensive! Yes it’s worth the price if you enjoy experimenting with your flavor pallet! We had decent service! Again, you’re on an island, it’s laid back and respectful. It saddens me to read reviews when patrons complain about price and size of dish but no one actually made comments if they even understood what was put in front of them. How much time and effort it took to mix that one dish in to what it is. We also really enjoyed a great conversation with the head chef at the end. We did not have any issues with the wait staff or timing of our meals or service.

Really love what Chef Benji and his team are doing at Blue Eleven. We opted for the 7-course menu sitting at the Chefs table to watch each meal being prepped. The staff were wonderful! We asked a lot of questions about each course and how it was prepped you could tell the team took pride in perfectly plating each course.

Chef Benji is elevating local cuisine with amazing sauces and unique ways to present their local food. Sooo many favorites from the evening .. the cheesy lobster with coconut biscuit, the green banana mash (SO delicious), the doughnut at the end but the boiled Halibut with passion fruit sauce (oh my!!) in a cassava foam may have been my favorite.

Thank you for such a wonderful and unique evening!!! Bravo!!!!

This was probably the best meal we had in St Thomas. The service was great, the food was delicious. Just a great experience overall. It salvaged some of our dinner experiences on island as good food felt hard to find.

If I could give this restaurant 10 stars, I would! From the amazing waitstaff, to the delicious dinner, everything about this experience was top of the line. The space itself is unassuming but be prepared to be taken on a culinary journey which each course better than the last!

Incredible food, service & atmosphere! The vibes and energy were great. It was fun watching them cook (if you choose to sit at high top). We got 7-course with a drink each, and it was perfect.

My fiancé and I ate here to celebrate our 5 years, and because of the great reviews, I chose Blue 11. They won’t disappoint, and we’re excited to try Indigo4 (sister restaurant) for brunch on Sunday before we head home 🙂

Thanks for a great experience…and Chef Elroy, if you’re reading this, we’re the couple that talked about hollandaise sauce and risotto lol! You’re a great man, don’t ever change and also keep on singing! It’s good for the soul.. and so is good food 😉

Update July 2025

We overnighted on St. Thomas to be able to dine at Blue 11 on our way to St. John and the BVIs. It was THAT good last year! It was THAT good again this year! As noted in my last review, our plan going in was to not eat all day so we could enjoy the 11-course chefs tasting menu. So glad we did! 11 perfectly executed small plates, each one fantastic on its own, but as an almost two-hour presentation, heaven on a plate!

The restaurant itself is very nice, cool bar area in the back. Nice dining area. But, counter seating is where it’s at for a front row seat into the kitchen. Staff is first rate, fun, happy, on the ball!

IGNORE reviews complaining about prices and portion sizes! Those are simply IGNORant folks who didn’t check out the place before dining there. Blue 11 is foodie, gastro perfection. Pricey yes, small portions yes, but for those who truly appreciate fine dining and expecting a chef’s talent, this is a must do in St. Thomas. Easily one of the top two or three restaurants in the USVIs! Simply outstanding! Highly recommend!

We dined at Blue 11 in St. Thomas, USVI, before a recent sailing adventure. It surpassed all expectations. We arrived when they opened and were the first to be seated. We chose to sit at the “Chef’s Counter” so we could watch all the action in the kitchen first-hand. We had eaten earlier in the day, so we opted for the 7-course chef’s tasting menu. What a gastro experience! If 10 stars were possible, Blue 11 would earn all 10!!! (Next time we won’t eat all day to allow for the 11-course extravaganza! LOL). The service was awesome, the staff super friendly, and the chef and his staff interacted with us all evening.

We started the evening with cocktails. A sorrel margherita (the Virgin Islands have their own version of this cultivated spice) and a cosmopolitan. When the drinks were finished, we opted for Eroica Reisling as a good pairing of what we understood the menu for the evening would be. It turned out to be a good choice. After dinner, we capped the evening with a Bushwacker frozen cocktail which was delicious as well.

The courses served were as follows: tuna tartare atop a habanero-cucumber sauce; poached Caribbean lobster on an herb-cheese sauce with a coconut biscuit; deconstructed calaloo soup; NY steak with green banana-white cheddar cheese puree, tamarind glaze, and sweet pepper jam; poached halibut with a passion fruit sauce, served on a casaba foam; jerked chicken with plantain gnocchi, sour cream sauce, basil oil, and spicy annato aioli; and, homemade donut with whipped cream, powered sugar, espresso ice cream and guava sauce.

The couple seated next to us opted for the 9-course meal, and the wife could eat her 8th course, so we also were able to taste a combination of conch, king mackerel, and onion sauce.

If it all sounds delicious, it was! It was a fantastic meal, great setting, and a wonderful time! We will definitely return to Blue 11! Highly recommend Blue 11 on St. Thomas!

I love fine dining and Blue 11 did not disappoint. The seven course tasting menu focused on local ingredients. Each course was better than the next. Our servers were attentive but not hovering. We were not rushed at all. A great birthday celebration!

If you are in St Thomas this place is a MUST stop for their delicious tasting menu. Every course was amazing and the blend of flavors was like an explosion of taste to the palate. Be sure to make a reservation though as it is cozy and intimate. Our group of 8 sat at the bar to enjoy the 9 plate tasting menu with a fabulous bottle of cab franc. I half heartedly joked that I was going to lick the plate after each tasting, then I heard a complete stranger at the end of the bar say the same thing a minute later. Sitting at the bar also offered a first hand view to watch the chefs create their magic and I won’t mention the fabulous scents that pleasure the nose and tease the tummy for what’s to come. Enjoy the pics!
