Sharky's is the kind of place that keeps people coming back for 25+ years — not just for the food, though the lobster stir-fry and Anguilla's own red snapper have earned every bit of their reputation, but for the feeling of walking in and having Sharky himself greet you like family, table by table, night after night.

Open-air seating on the front porch of what once was a private home, cocktails that punch above their weight (try anything with "goes"), and live music on select evenings — Darvin Mussington on Sundays, Allan Coppin on Wednesdays. No service charge here — just honest hospitality, the way island dinner is supposed to feel.
