Best restaurant on Aruba owned by a German, so the Schnitzel is amazing. Also, the Sea Bass and the Lamb is great. Make a reservation - even though there are many seats, it's full.

Barb Kittmer

Don't miss the potatoes au gratin !! Best I've ever had!! HUGE portions . Costs $9 to split a meal but if you order schnitzel , split it and you will still take some home. Excellent food!!! Pricey !!!!

Valentin Guerin

Great place with HUGE portions . Try the bang bang shrimps , schnitzel , and chocolate souffle . There is live music which is lovely for the evening.

Paige C

Amazing fish dishes and appetizers . The portions were HUGE, so beware. The burger was insane.

Lobster ravioli is overrated--two large greasy raviolis . Au gratin potatoes are good. Portions are ridiculously large. Nice garden environment, but full of mosquitos.

Joe D

Really enjoyed it. Food is good, pricey , but portions are huge and service is solid. The house hit sauce has awesome flavor, but is HOT (you can buy a bottle for home if you like it). Enjoy

Peter Figaroa

very cozy outdoor seating , amusement live music , great food especially the surf & turf , the local house hot sauce is a must try!

Jeremy Krantz

One of Aruba's most popular restaurants . Reservations are a must. The food is great as is the ambiance. Good drinks too and the live music is great too!

John E

Pricey , but a must-visit restaurant on the island (which is unfortunately no secret). Expansive menu that's pretty good at everything - go for the Surf & Turf if you've got The appetite for it.

Lili Rueda

Big portions , nice restaurant special for celebrations. GREAT wine & licour list. Very particular menu. ????????

James C

Amazing food and amazing staff . The almond grouper and cordon blue were fantastic. Pirate beer was amazing and try the key lime martini .

Peter Marreck

Many delicious options, but take note that part of the reason everything tastes so good is because I am sure they are quite liberal with butter. Beach bod aspirers beware! Delicious gluttony alert

John Harris

We celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary and were very satisfied with the food, drinks, service and the music . Best restaurant this trip.

Michael C

I'm in love... schnitzel and coconut curry shrimp . Stellar beer selection .

Ken G

Many outside seating available, but if the weather has a chance of rain, consider asking for a table under a roof even if in the outdoors.

Rebecca Plaine

Make your reservation WAY ahead of time for popular weeks. Fill up on bread - it's some of the best I've ever had!

Steven Rosenblatt

The house salad with house dressing is one of the best salads . Rack of Lamb is very good and the Almond Crusted Grouper is a favorite.

Beautiful restaurant . The Asian Sea Bass and Potatoes au Gratin were both exceptional.

Alisa Frederick

We had delicious seafood with a strong beer & yummy drink.

Catherine C.

Great ambiance! Loved the outdoor seating and tree lights + live music . Note: If you are wearing shorts , ask your waiter for Off bug spray!

James Kiernan

For years, this place consistently meets the mark both in terms of cuisine and atmosphere. Enjoy!

Gianna

The bang bang shrimp , salmon ... Everything is ahhhmazing ???????? Favorite on the island by far

Paola Viscogliosi

The service was attentive. The food food. The dessert was decadent. Make sure you exercise after dessert . It's delicious but

Steven Rosenblatt

One of the best atmosphere's for eating in Aruba. Always great live music . Outdoor seating .

Be sure to go on Wednesdays to hear a great live performance of alt rock from the 60s-present.

Vlad Brisan

You need to try The original “Almond Grouper ”  ! Best food in Aruba

Caresse Arends

Excellent place for dinner ! Nice ambience

Mike

Great food, generous portions , nice atmosphere, substantial beer list

Mina Davunan

Large food portions, good food. Ambiance is very casual and lots of families.

Christina Chiaia Ranuro

Food was great. Waited an hour and 20 minutes to be served and because it is outside dining it was scorching hot with no breeze to break it up. Killed our appetites so we left with out dessert

Jon Urness

Best food on the island . We have tried them all.

Saul Cruz

Very romantic place ! Great place for a quite atmosphere!

Sara ????⚔????

Fantastic food and impeccable service . Very romantic .

Daniil Kolesnikov

If you are from Europe, don’t come here, it’s all about big portions and heavy food. In almond grouper you can’t taste anything except almonds , schnitzel is just horrible, nothing like in Vienna...

Liz Zammit

Great food in an intimate , garden setting. A must-try place during your stay. I have never experienced bugs during my visits (April, July, August).

Brian Hughes

Great atmosphere and live music . Get. Table near the stage :)

Ross Hoddeson

Best restaurant on Aruba . Pricey but worth it. Great ambiance and delicious food.

Kelli Van ????

Definitely get the Au Gratin potatoes as your side. Fantastic.

Michael C

Fantastic Schnitzels

Joy K

*All* of the desserts of nuts on them, whether listed on the menu or not. Be careful if you have allergies.

Maria Cuadra

Christmas Menu! The Snapper was great!

Dionne Davis

The music is great. But, the female vocalist is a wee bit incongruous.

Sandy Sayet

Surf and turf and cordon blue schnitzel

Dee Cha

bang bang shrimp ! ps- make sure you have reservations

Pim Verkerk

Surf 'n Turf ; very tender steak , lobster and king pawns! Very good!!

Munevver Tugce Secer

Get a side of Potatoes Gratin !

Tracy Waller

This place is a bit overrated, but if you're going, definitely get dessert !

Dionne Davis

Almond-crusted grouper and potatoes au gratin

????Linds????

They don't have all the beers on their beer menu . They were out of what I wanted. :/ food is kind of salty. Ambiance is nice. I think it's WAY overpriced.
