We ate at next course on our second night here. It is a great atmosphere in the evening with the wrap around porch, dim lighting, and twinkle lights in the trees. It was lovely and breezy. We had the bacon wrapped dates as an appetizer, the lobster, and salmon stuffed with lobster. These were all fabulous! I also tried the... More

We had Next Course cater our wedding reception, which we held just up the hill at Casa Columbia. Buddy did a spectacular job with the food, and the presentation was stunning. This was our favorite restaurant when we lived on the island from 2010-2011, so there wasn't anybody else we wanted to handle the food for our special day. Everything... More

We showed up without a reservation, mistake. Just call ahead so they can add you to the list or give you a head's up on when to show up for the best service. That said, we were seated fairly quickly even though they were busy. The prices overall are a bit high but hey it is vacation and everything was... More

We ate at The Next Course for our last night in Vieques. The atmosphere, service and food were all excellent. The lobster with truffle risotto was AMAZING. We also loved the drinks. We were inside but the large doors were all open and we felt like we were outside. I highly recommend this restaurant. Pricey but worth it for a... More

Enjoyed the atmosphere very much for this lovely restaurant. Food wasn't as good as expected, though. Patio a bit buggy.

1. Nice atmosphere and friendly staff 2. Lobster was prepared decently 3. Risotto was prepared okay but it was made with too much cream and truffle oil (less is more here guys) 4. Asparagus was great but the prosciutto wrapping was a little low quality

I was disappointed. The location and décor are very nice, and the staff efficiently move us inside when a thunderstorm forced us off the lovely porch. But the food was heavy and over-sauced. My mushroom risotto was too rich to eat. I'd be willing to try again in search of lighter fare.

This was the best meal I had on the island. Three of us had the caribbean lobster with crab risotto and it was fabulous. We had the dates and raviolis for an appetizer, the raviolis were good but they were upstaged by the dates. Dessert was good, as well. Service was excellent (thanks Katey!) and I liked the setting. It... More

My husband and I visited the Next Course for our anniversary. The decor was fabulous, comfortable and eye pleasing. My husband had the lobster wrapped around asparagus with risotto placed in the lobster shell (nice presentation) and I had the yellowfin tuna atop riscotto and a mound of spinach (nice presentation) again. The server was pleasant and knowledge of the... More
