Our group of 4 visited Tisa's Barefoot Bar 1/20/23. What an special place! A few things to know. First, we were the first group to visit since the Pandemic. We began a dialog with Tisa via email over a year ago requesting a visit. We thankfully worked out the details long before our trip started, so we were the lucky 4 to be welcomed from a cruise ship of 2,000. NOTE: always email Tisa prior to coming. The location is a marine sanctuary and visits are limited so that the reef is always protected and respected. So the 4 of us spent approx. 4 hours on the beach while other drop ins were turned away. Our big-eye tuna dinner was wonderful, drinks fresh and tasty, snorkeling was wonderful, conversation was meaningful. I felt like we won the lottery by being able to visit such a beautiful spot.

We had a great afternoon and dinner at Tisa’s. Tisa and Candyman are gracious hosts. The beach and snorkeling was great and the dinner and drinks were awesome. You do need to call ahead and make a reservation. This is a small, family-owned business and they can’t accommodate drop ins. If you are visiting Tutuila don’t miss Tisa’s!!

To stay here with Tisa and Candyman was an absolute pleasure. I’ve never felt so welcomed and I imagine this is what it’s like to stay with family. The fale is simple yet adequate. The meals were fresh and delicious. The view, the breeze, the ocean, the moon - all just perfect. Thank you so much for allowing me to stay in your little piece of paradise xx

My husband and I were at Tisa's Barefoot Bar twice during our stay in American Samoa. It's a small place and you do need advance reservations as they buy the food when needed, so as to provide the freshest ingredients and not to waste any. Both days we were the only ones at Tisa's and the lunch of tuna, shrimp, papaya, breadfruit and salad was just phenomenal. Our table overlooked the bay and we were encouraged to whale watch from our table. The dates we were there were close to our wedding anniversary and you just couldn't get any more romantic!

The view, the food, the owners are all fantastic. This is the best place to visit in America Samoa. The food is so yummy and the presentation is incredible. Make reservations since I couldn't attend the Wednesday night dinner since they were booked. Do not miss this incredible and magical restaurant. Thank you for a fantastic afternoon!

Tisa and her husband were THE BEST. It looked like rain so she sent a small bus for us at the port. Food was amazing. Really felt their warm and caring family style service was so sincere.

One of my best excursions ever! Tisa was so welcoming. We were treated as part of the family and enjoyed a sumptuous traditional meal that was out of thus world. Lamb, tuna, pork, and turkey as well as bananas, papaya, pumpkin, and peppers all cooked in their above ground pit with ho9t rocks and leaves. Amazing!! The secluded beach and beautiful water made this a perfect day. We were also treated to a reading from a Samoan performance poet. This excursion is limited to 20 people.
