Regie's Bistro (37 Main St., entrance on Villa Road, tel. 876/285-6605, 11:30 a.m.\10:30 p.m Mon.\Sat., US$3.50\40), run by Patrick Adizua, who runs his private medical practice on the ground level, serves creative Jamaican and Caribbean dishes in a cozy second-floor dining room and bar. The top level has a beautiful outdoor bar area suitable for large groups and parties. The menu includes starters like jerk chicken drumsticks, buffalo wings, shrimp bruschetta, seafood chowder, cream of chick pea, and garden or Greek salad. Sumptuous entrèes range from prime aged steaks, chops, and ribs to lobster thermidor and coconut shrimp beignets with pepper jelly dipping sauce. Named after Patrick's mother and daughter, both named Regina, Regie's also has one of the area's best wine lists, which includes French, Spanish, Chilean, Argentine, and North American brands, among them ice wine from Canada.
