L’Escargot Restaurant on Front Street in Philipsburg St. Maarten

St. Maarten Restaurants

Celebrating nearly 40 years of excellent dining in a 150 year old vintage gingerbread Creole house on Front Street in Philipsburg, L’Escargot must be doing something right under the direction of Joel and Sonya. The name of the restaurant refers to the eight different styles of snails on the menu.

Some of the house favorites are a fabulous Rack of Lamb with herbs and garlic, Fresh Dover Sole Meuniere and their famous Roast Duck with a choice of Guavaberry, Pineapple or Banana Sauce. L’Escargot also offers fabulous desserts such as Chocolat Blanc et son Coulis de Framboise (White Chocolate with Raspberry Sauce). If you want heat you can try any one of over 50 hot sauces offered. There is also an impressive wine list.

L’Escargot is also known for its Friday Night Cabaret in the manner of La Cage au Folles. Even the chef moonlights as Maurice Chevalier and the owners, Joel and Sonya do a duet as Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton after serving you a fabulous 4 course meal.
