Came here to try something different on the island and it did not disappoint. The Shrimp Nachos were phenomenal. The Quesadilla was superb and the fish/shrimp tacos were exceptional. The service was great. We went for lunch which seems like a great time to go. Would highly recommend the nachos and/or the quesadilla.

Kai-Joe’s is the best restaurant in town. Wish I had been there sooner on my trip. We’ve now been multiple times on our trip and their food is consistent and delicious and reasonably priced in comparison to most of the other restaurants in town. Even though dining is outdoors and the flies can be annoying the overall vibe is fantastic.

Great food and solid pricing! Some outdoor seating and a good amount of parking. Lines may be a little long but its definitely worth it, without a doubt.

Stopped by today for some Tacos. Tried the North Shore ones and the Firecracker Nachos. Both were really flavorful. The nachos were my favorite. Lots of Old Bay on the shrimp, and plenty of cheese on the bottom. They weren't like most places where they only put the ingredients on top and then the last half are just plain chips. The only knock on the place was I wish they had more flavors of Jarritos (only had Pineapple and grapefruit when I went).

Delicious Uncle Swillys chicken quesadilla that is nothing like you've had before. Really loved the unique flavour on this although I thought it was spicy (but good). I think my first bite has extra Jalapenos in it so it felt spicy for all the bites. Portions are a decent size and looking forward to leftovers tomorrow.
