In Italian, the word “pesce” means “fish.” However it sounds when spoken, that lilting language fails to translate all the exquisite taste sensations awaiting you at Pesce Fine Dining Italian Restaurant.
“Fresh seafood, homemade pasta, local ingredients” is the promotional phrase Pesce chooses to showcase on its website’s home page. That, too, is only part of the overall Pesce picture.
Essentially, the intriguing enterprise invites patrons to step beyond the East End of St. Thomas and into the Italian countryside. How fascinating!
At Pesce, rustic meets sophisticated while embracing fresh ingredients, local seafood and more. Happily, the friendly, dedicated staff is highly knowledgeable when it comes to the relationship between food and wine – served with warmth and hospitality.
