I had a fantastic experience at Papazouk. The seafood was absolutely delicious and the lobster was incredible — perfectly cooked and full of flavor. The prices were very reasonable for the quality, and the hosts were super friendly and welcoming, which made the whole meal even better. Highly recommend if you’re looking for great seafood and a warm atmosphere!

This place was great. I came by myself and didn’t know you had to make a reservation. They were nice enough to squeeze me in and attend to me as well. The food was phenomenal. Simple garlic butter but well cooked and seasoned.

I recently dined at Papa Zouk in Antigua, and while the food was good, the overall experience was uncomfortable and ruined our last night on the island. The first thing you notice when entering the restaurant is that it’s very overwhelming: a lot of everything. Decorations, too many customers in a room, and fans – which made it challenging to have a conversation with the person in front of you.

We were lucky enough to be accommodated at one of the few single tables, as most guests had to share a long table (which would have been absolutely fine!). However, as it was a special night, we were delighted to have a bit more privacy. After 15 minutes (we had already ordered food and drinks), the owner came to us and “kindly” asked us to move to a shared table as there was a couple celebrating something special. Something so special that the lady spent the evening watching her phone, and the waitress turned out to be a friend.

For the inconvenience, the owner told us that drinks were on him. The food was good; the fried elements of the dish were excellent with perfect breadcrumbs. Maybe a little too oily. I liked the idea of serving homemade sauces on the table to dress food (like putting olive oil on the table but instead, you had a passion fruit dressing).

The only problem with the food was that we ordered two dishes to share and received three (one entree and two main courses – exactly bthe same main course). We asked the waiter if the food was definitely ours, and she confirmed. At this stage, we thought maybe they had shared the main course on two plates as it was a bigger meal.

Well, once the bill arrived, the surprise: they charged us for the drinks (2 rum punch and water, not a magnum of champagne) and two main courses. We were extremely disappointed with this, and thankfully a young lady (she was working at the bar?) assisted us and was very kind and understanding. On the other hand, our waitress was rude and lacked basic customer service skills, starting to say that we couldn’t have our dinner for free, and things like that.

We explained that we didn’t want a free dinner; clearly, as paying customers (and the restaurant is overpriced considering portion sizes), we wanted to pay for the service received. Ah, guess what? This was the waitress was friend of the people who were sitting at our initial table.

In all this, the owner did not check on us once. All in all, it was a bizarre and unpleasant experience that I would not recommend. It’s a shame because the restaurant was recommended by locals and we were so excited, but it was the worst night in the last 10 days. We’re coming back to Antigua soon, but don’t think this place will be on our list again.

We went to papa zouk multiple times on our trip. The snapper, both grilled and fried, is one of the best. The soursop sorbet is really good too.

What a place! This isn’t just a restaurant, its a whole experience. Bert (the owner) sat down with us to have a lovely chat and told us about their menu of the day. We had the most beautiful meal! Expect Incredible atmosphere and the yummiest rum punch (rum tea) must go if you are in Antigua

My spouse and I were recommended to go to this place if we wanted to enjoy good seafood.
I won’t lie, food was really good. However, we did not end up the night quite pleased.
The people that work there are very nice and friendly, anything you need they will assist you. As a drink, we order the rum punch, their specialty. Really strong, we were a little buzzed with just one drink
As I said, the quality of the food was good.
Their bread is DELICIOUS!! We were very surprised.
My spouse ordered the fried red snapper, I ordered the house mix platter. All fresh and tasty. Food took a little bit to prepare, which we appreciate because it means it’s fresh cooked.
The only reason I do not give them 5 stars is because we felt like they charge you American prices. No sides with your food, besides a small salad. If you order fish, you’ll have fish. Nothing to eat it with.
Overall, we were satisfied with the quality of the food, the environment and the service.

I had a great first time experience at Papa Zouk. Multiple residents recommended it when we asked about where to get the best seafood. Everything was delicious and the lobster was amazingly good. Great atmosphere. Highly recommend.

The atmosphere and fabulous service was as everyone has reported already but I want
to add another comment about the food. I enjoy fish but am sometimes lazy about ordering on the bone. I am so glad that I went with the recommended grilled whole Red Snapper- absolutely delicious, possibly the best fish I have ever eaten.
