Cute, atmospheric little place in the heart of downtown St. Thomas. Nice selection of Latin style/tex-mex menu options. Chips served at the table with 3 versions of house-made salsas (mild, medium and hot). They've also got a hot-sauce bar for those who want to kick things up a notch! We visited during a particularly warm evening, and the smooth, frozen mango margarita went down really nicely! Have been back once since our first visit - will be back!
Went to bella jacks because thier pina coladas are sooo good......
had a chimichenga or whatever you call them, and it was disgusting......
have had the taco salad, it was fairly good.....
service is hideous.... there is this one lady with blond hair kinda curly, and she is short... very very rude... I hope she was just having a bad day and that is not how she always acts...
service can be extremely slow....
its an ok place to go for drinks.
Everytime we visit this restaurant the staff is incredible. This past visit the owner was trying out peach margaritas and gave everyone at the bar a good size sampler while we waited for our table. The food is always served hot! You can tell that almost everything is made in house from fresh ingredients. I find everything at Bella Jacks to be very flavourful - keep up the great work :)
A friend recommended this place to us so we decided to give it a shot while we were down in St. Thomas for the evening.
The service was friendly and quick and the atmosphere was nice, but the food just wasn't good enough to get me to come back.
My Steak chimi was tough and was filled with so much cheese that any other flavours were irrelevant. My refried beans also came layered in cheese. It seems like the chef isn't very confident in his recipes and over uses cheese to hide the lack of flavour.
My wife's steak fajitas were also bland. I know this is going to sound strange but the steak actually tasted like beef. What I mean by that is that the meat wasn't seasoned at all. No salt and pepper, no mexican spices, nothing.
I admit that perhaps my standards are a little high as we just returned from a vacation in the southern US and had some awesome Mexican food. It's hard to come back to Canada and find anything that resembles real Mexican food. However I feel that Bella's doesn't even meet the levels that other Mexican places in London set, so I can't see myself making the drive again in the future.

Rob & Diane and staff make Bella Jacks everything that it is. I can't believe anyone could write a bad review about this restaurant. Not only do we visit atleast monthly, we also have our staff Christmas party at Bella Jacks where they treat us like family. I think I have had just about everything on the menu and have never been disappointed. Fair price for great food. Elgin Chrysler loves Bella Jacks!

After reading a couple of the reviews I was a bit skeptical. Wow was I impressed. This place was fantastic. The service was lightning quick and they were very friendly. We will be back again for sure. Very well done.
Extremely long wait, much longer then the hosts...
Extremely long wait, much longer then the hosts said. Sat at bar for more then an hour, unfortunately bar atmosphere wasn't very friendly, staff behind bar seemed stressed and anti-social. Drinks were fantastic and food was almost worth the wait. Staff should work on social skills.
Best restaurant in st-thomas. Very busy, but always fun having a great margarita at the bar while you wait. Food is awesome and priced very reasonably. Service is quick and friendly. Can't wait to go back.
Keep up the great work!

I often come here for supper. It's fairly priced, the staff are attentive, and I'm absolutely addicted to their seafood chimis! The service is usually pretty quick, and the place itself is nice and quaint and small.
Lets face it when non-mexican people try to do mexican or copy from other mexican restaurants they just don't do it the right way. Decor is not bad, but can easily be marked as they were trying to hard to be mexican than actually doing it. The Food is just ok - you can tell when a cook takes short cuts in preparing the menu. Waiters and Waitress seemed very stressed rushing around disorderly, but polite. We can all say the you get what you pay for. The price reflects exactly what you get - below average Mexican food - If we can give any advise to the restaurant - organize yourselves and get some mexican expertise in the door - Your food health and safety practices need to be reviewed, most small town restaurant kitchens can get pretty nasty.

Bella Jack's consistently delivers good food served fast in a comfortable atmosphere. My wife and I moved to St. Thomas recently and were happy to find a local Mexican place that served authentic fare at very reasonable prices. Rob and Diane are fantastic hosts, and we are always made to feel at home. Portion sizes are just right, and that is reflected in the price. The Sangria is excellent, according to my wife. Try Bella Jack's. You will not be disappointed.
We came here before for some Margaritas and it was ok
But with all the lay offs in St. Thomas it looks as though this place is ready to pack it in. They seem like the don't care anymoreand have let the place go downhill. I wonder what restaurant will replace this time.
Hopefully the new restaurant will do better!
Bella Jacks is one of the better restaurants in St Thomas.
The food, service, ambience is all OK. Most people in St Thomas would consider this gourmet mainly because the food isn't served on a plastic tray.
I thought things were great.More meat on nachos next time as well they could've had some music going to set the atmosphere.Overall things were good.Sangarias were very good-give ya a zip off one!
i love this place, been there three times now always awsome. The owner takes time to say hi to everyone which is nice even though he is busy. Mojito's are awsome. Love the tortilla soup. Great atmosphere. I drive from London, it is worth it.
