Lily Pond House Restaurant

This place is that off the beaten path experience you're looking for.
The restaurant is ran by two gentlemen, seating is limited so you're getting a whole experience, we only had 4 other parties enter with us and most were 6 or less persons.
The food is excellent and the ambiance is eclectic and charming. Plus there is the added bonus of the opportunity to interact with the owners extremely well behaved dogs and have a lovely conversation with the owner or chef, but you may also get to feed a colony of fruit bats! Which is honestly the best thing ever.

Solid 10/10 for me, but I enjoy the quiet and simple, that give me more of an open and friendly feeling.

Our family of 10 had the most beautiful experience with our most lovely hosts! The food and wine - excellent. Atmosphere- cool, funky, inviting, eclectic, amazing art( the tour of the studio so special!).
Hosts: excellent communication, so attentive to our various needs and wants. Cannot tell you how much we were absolutely touched by their kindness and pure spirits. We are so grateful they spent their time and energy to embrace our kooky group- and thank you for sharing Charlie Benson and all pups, bats and amazing life stories. Your beautiful partnership, your lives, love, adventures and generous contribution to the culture and community of Roatan. We will never forget our experience at Lily Pond! Thank you!!

The Lily Pond House Restaurant is a truly unique and beautiful place. There were so many details and small things to notice and enjoy all around the space. I had the seafood pasta in red sauce which was divine. The hubs had surf and turf. I also felt very special to see the amazing artwork that Luis had made - he is truly a talented artist and chef. The ambiance and charm of Lily Pond House Restaurant is one of a kind and I felt whisked away upon walking in.

This was easily the best food that we had on the island after two weeks of being here. And this place is so unique, wonderful, and magical, that I recommend you don’t miss out on this place. Be aware that you have to RESERVE before noon. You can use the number to call or use WhatsApp to message them. My girlfriend and I both had steak and two potatoes (because we love potatoes) and it was so good! And the dessert was amazing too! This was such a nice, relaxed, and wonderful evening! Thank you Lily Pond Restaurant for what you have created here, it will never be forgotten!

Really lovely place. The fish was wonderful and the key lime pie was perfection!! Great spot to hang out and have a drink, lots of dogs to keep you company :)

My husband James and I just finished a 1900 reserved dinner at Lily Pond. This being our final dinner on our honeymoon and a wise choice we made. What an eclectic ambient garden to enjoy a tasty cooked meal. I had the catch of the day, sea bass, well prepared and seasoned, with the delicious vegetables. James ordered 8 oz tenderloin medium rare with a sweet and salty gravy. He enjoyed very much! The Sauvignon blanc wine from Chile was heavily poured as well. Zach and Louis are a two team ship and make it without pressure and smooth dining. Their sweet dog Zeus is a handsome fella and very open minded to affection from all. Currently, there is a momma turtle protecting her eggs (with the help of the Lily Pond Owners effort) in the center garden pond. Just lovely. What a place to retreat from the hustle and bustle. Zach, please watch Upstart Crow for me and I will watch Absolutely Fabulous (I promise). Continue with the background Diana Krall, Elvis Costello, and let Isla Bonita play next time we visit.

With much appreciation, James and Ansley

The most incredible experience. Mystical, magical and outrageously tasty! You have to make a reservation but it is so worth it! Old England style Tudor house, the owners have built this over 11 years. This fabulous couple will take care of you and the ambiance is so so so worthwhile to experience! GO GO GO!!!

Such a cool atmosphere! Relaxing boho vibe I loved it. Food is fine.

I just can't say enough good things about our dining experience.
Dining with a restaurant owning companion, after the first bite her comment was "oh my God this is an explosion of flavor in my mouth!"
The owner Zach and Chef Louis were extremely hospitable and personable.
I would highly recommend you take in this experience.

We decided to make a reservation after reading the stellar reviews and couldn't have been happier with the unique experience. I call it an experience because even though going to have a meal was the obvious goal we were encouraged to enjoy the more comfortable furniture both before and after our meal. They limit the amount of customers for the evening and it was really enjoyable. On top of that the food was great as well. Thank you!

Unique Dining Experience

When you walk in the lights are twinkling and reflecting off the pond in the centre of the courtyard. A wonderfully different ambiance. We enjoyed before dinner drinks on a double swing before having tasty entres of steak (cooked to perfection) and chicken with delicious sides. The key lime pie for desert deserves a mention. Friendly service.

The food is really good, atmosphere unique. Makes for a memorable evening. Make a reservation.

The place is so special. All the way from the people who owns it to the lovely dog Zeus.

It's truly a hidden gem. We only found this place cause our host recommend it to us. Food was fresh and so delicious. I had the chicken and my sister had the catch of the day.

The mash potatoes were so soft and we'll seasoned. The veggies and the salad all very fresh. We loved the dressings they offered and the spicy sauce was just spicy enough for our taste.

The best atmosphere in the island

This place is a hidden treasure in the west end that we are so grateful to have found! It's one in a million with incredibly accommodating hosts and terrific food! We loved the pups visiting us and providing entertainment too! We had the greatest night! Thanks fellas!!!

The atmosphere and food are spectacular!! This lovely restaurant is a must do!! Dinner last night was hands down our best meal on the island.

The ambience is truly a refection of the owners genius! Conversations and stories engage each guest with the island and makes you feel you have come home. Each meal is hand prepared with a flare for exciting your taste buds. The service has a humorous engaging ability to let yourself relax and experience beyond what is on the menu.
I was fortunate enough to spend my 70th birthday at this truly remarkable haven. A dining experience I will never forget. Bravo!!!
This is a must when in Roatan!

Dining at the Lily Pond is as much an experience as it is a culinary joy. The decour is shabby chic. A video playing black & whites of old and new jazz standards. We enjoyed a lovely capresse salad and an excellent vodka and fresh tangerine? juice. We both ordered the seabass, with garlic mash potato and vegetable medley. Everything was cooked beautifully. If I was to critique the Thai sauce was a little salty/sweet for my liking and over powered the fish.

Hands down the best restaurant on Roatan!!! Food is amazing. Atmosphere is unlike anything you've ever experienced. Service is next level excellent. This place is a MUST!!!!!! I promise you won't be disappointed.

What an incredible hidden gem with the most fantastic vibe. Zack really has cultivated a little slice of relaxed paradise. The food is well priced and delicious, delivered daily from local sources. The space is open and tropical, and had amazing music streaming on the projector when we visited. (We suspect movie nights here are super cozy and welcoming)

The highlight was feeding the bats! We first thought there were birds fluttering under the roof, but they were too quiet and realized that these are lovely bats Zack has domesticated over the years. Playful and extremely fast little things, they drink sugar water from a bowl and ensure the entire property is mosquito free!!

Eclectic and funky decor with fun atmosphere plus dining is always done with wonderful execution and tasty choices for dinner. your hosts are funky and inviting
