Wapalapam Island Eatery

Mixed Experience at Wapalapam, Le Morne ⭐⭐⭐ We recently dined at Wapalapam in Le Morne, and while there were some highlights, the overall experience was a bit mixed. What We Loved: The Chilli Prawns were definitely a standout! The flavor was great, though the portion was on the smaller side. Still, it was enjoyable. The Calamari Salt & Pepper had a better portion size compared to the prawns and was well-seasoned, making it a satisfying appetizer. The Fish Curry with Rice was a generous portion, and although the quantity was good, the taste didn't quite hit the mark. We were hoping for something more flavorful. What Could Be Improved: The Dorado was fried, which unfortunately made it a bit chewy rather than flaky and tender. There were too few prawns in the dish, which was disappointing considering the price point. For desserts, we had the Strawberry Ice Cream and Coconut Sagoo, but both were a bit underwhelming in terms of taste. The ice cream felt more like a frozen sorbet than a creamy dessert, and the Sagoo was noticeably undercooked, leaving a grainy texture that was hard to enjoy. My latte was served lukewarm, which was a bit disappointing—especially since a warm, comforting drink is always a must when dining out. Overall: The service was decent, and we appreciated the friendly atmosphere. While there were some solid dishes, the inconsistency in taste, preparation, and portion sizes left us with a mixed impression. We might consider giving it another try, but there’s definitely room for improvement.

The food was excellent! Had 3 starters... the white fish ceviche, the chili chicken wings and the chili prawns... each was great. My wife had the 500g fish (2 fishes) with garlic butter and that was also excellent. The service was fast and pleasant... all in all a great stay. Thanks

Absolutely love the food here. The cocktails are also wonderful. Great customer service at fairly decent price. Much referred eating here than in the resort restaurants. Their Caesar salad is sensational !!

Delicious food and very good service. Paying by card is possible. The ceviche was really amazing - so was the papaya salad! Would definitely recommend and come back! ⭐️ 💯 ✅

It is a much house for seafood and meat lovers. The service is 10 on 10. Ambience is good. Located at the foothills of Le Morne it is an very good place to take a munch.

Lovely atmosphere and the food is amazing. Good sized portions. Lovely staff too I fell in love with the flourless choc cake as I eat gluten free. It is SO good. Would love the recipe if anyone is reading my review from Wapalapam. You can pay by card and I recommend leaving a tip as the staff are fantastic. If you don’t finish your plateful you can take away the rest. Perfect Thank you for such an amazing place to eat with beautiful fresh food 💕

Was excited to get off the resort for a night and try a more “local” restaurant for dinner. Food was okay - not terrible and not great. Service is a bit abrupt and not very warm. They just kind of go “what do you want” and don’t explain much if you ask a question. If you have a small baby, the baby seat is for older toddlers. A small baby will slide right through the seat, so we had to hold him and eat in shifts. The baby seat issue is more of a parent issue (poor planning by us) and not the restaurants fault I guess. Again, food was average. The restaurant looks nice (surfer vibe) next to the mountain with a nice view if you sit outside on the side.

Very delicious and unique dishes! It is a bit more expensive but worth it as it is nothing compared to anything else you can get on the island. I can recommend the Tropical Salad with Pineapple, Chili Prawns, Egg fried Rice and the Manioc Fries. Besides that the staff was also very friendly. You should definitely make a stop there!
