Last verified 15 Aug 2026 · how we verify
Roadside Caribbean kitchen at Ortoire known for roast snapper and fish rice.
Ducky's is a rustic roadside kitchen on the Manzanilla-Mayaro Road at Ortoire, close to the river mouth, serving Caribbean plates built around the day's catch. Roast snapper is what it is known for, usually plated with fish rice and mango chow, and lobster and shrimp appear when available. It is an informal, order-and-wait spot rather than a dining room, and the kitchen runs from late morning until late evening.

“Ordered three roasted snapper lunches and a lobster and shrimp dish. The meal came with fish rice and a mango chow, and the fish was excellent.”
