Ana's On The Beach

Ana’s On The Beach is an absolute gem! The staff are truly incredible — so kind, welcoming, and honest. My partner accidentally left his phone there without realizing, and when we came back two days later on a hunch, they had kept it safe for us. We were blown away by their honesty and hospitality. The food is honestly 10/10. I had the shrimp coconut curry, and it was hands down the best meal I’ve ever had. The coconut shrimp starter? I haven’t stopped thinking about it since — it was that good! To top it all off, the bar is right on a stunning stretch of beach at Dickinson’s Bay, making the whole experience even more special. If you’re in the area, Ana’s is a must-visit!

Classic older property and option to have feet in the sand while dining. Of the 5 different places we've tried fried calamari, this was our favorite. We ordered the Restaurant Week prix fixe 3 course lunch. My Caribbean Jerk Chicken plate and also hubby's Carbonara were very good. The menu has a full page of lobster dishes but, alas, it is not legal to serve lobster in May (a 3 month rest for mating season). Will certainly return next visit!

None of the food was really that great. They were out of a lot of things so that was weird? They used store bought shells for tacos. There was undressed salad on almost every plate. The chicken wings and fish curry were okay. The arepas was soggy. The drinks were strong and that was the only highlight. They charge a fee to be there and we paid for chairs to be able to lay on the beach. We needed up spending about $160 in American dollars for the whole experience. Four items of food, three drinks, their fee to be there plus abst and service charge and we paid for four chairs as we were there with another couple plus we tipped because they were actually decent on service. Overall, the food is definitely not worth it and I don’t think we’d go back. We’d try to find another beach area but this is where our taxi took us too when we asked to go to this particular beach.

We read all the reviews before going to Dickenson Beach, se we stayed away from Anna's as being our primary anchor spot. Still, we wanted some food and there are just no options on Dickenson beach. The resorts won't allow public to got eat and drink, ugh. So...we went on over for lunch. Bottom line is they are Way under staffed and Way under managed. We were okay with the prices, $20 US for sandwich or tacos...that's just they way it is guys, most anywhere. But for the entire place they had 1 waitress 1 bar keep 1 cook The bar keep was making darn sure he did NOTHING other than mix drinks. The one waitress had just given up on trying to service 6 parties spread across tables and out on the beach. We were at a table where the waitress and bar keep kept seeing us and clearly we were invisible. Finally after a long time I just tracked her down and passed her $10 US for the water . That's all we were provided for our entire time there, although we really wnatw to order food. She smiled and said "no problem". They just don't care. If the Bar Keep would actually help out the place could have better service. Lastly, it is run down. Looks quite a bit rougher than the sparkling images on their website.

My wife and I had an amazing experience at Ana's on the beach! The restaurant's art gallery ambiance and Caribbean decor create such a wonderful atmosphere. The personal touch of the owners (Consuelo and her husband), who engage with guests and ensure your satisfaction, is truly exceptional. And the seafood, prepared with excellence and served with love and the beautiful smile of Ms. Angela made the dining experience unforgettable. Highly recommended! 🌴🍽️🌊

First, the view and setting are absolutely spectacular! Antigua's sunsets rival any that I've seen around the world and Ana's offers one of the best views. Food is really good too - there is something about the freshness of food on the islands and this place does not disappoint. I had the lobster and others in my party had grilled fish and the ceviche appetizer was amazing! However, just know that you WILL be on island time so make sure you are not super hungry or have plans immediately after. If you are on vacation I suppose that is not a big deal but just be prepared to wait close to an hour or more for your food. As many have said, a few in my party were not even hungry anymore by the time the food came out which I always find odd but it's true. Also, you may be disappointed because many things were not available on the menu. I can totally understand that supply can be limited at certain times and not entirely their fault, but it would’ve been nice to know before ordering what was available rather than them coming back and telling us after we ordered. Service can definitely be improved hence 4 stars instead of 5. In spite of this, the servers, bartender and the owner who I met are very friendly and pleasant. They certainly make up for some of the shortcomings.

We came here a couple times for dinner and both time it seems like we are the only one there . Just a couple of tables occupied . So we were hesitant everytime to come here knowing food might both be fresh as expected. The staffs was nice in general . But food could need a little more improvement. The fried snapper could have prepared a little better. But we just want to come here and support the local businesses hoping they improve next time .

I ordered a seafood sampler that is supposed to be consists of squid, shrimp and fish. There was no fish, the squid is really rubbery and the shrimp is just alright. The food was fried longer that it should. I should have listened to my gut after reading reviews on here. Definitely don’t recommend.
