Reviews
We arrived at 5:30 and didn’t not have a reservation. We were sat promptly at a table with a great view.
We will return when we come back to Aruba.
The food was great—tasty and flavorful all around. I ordered the grilled shrimp and swapped the sides for fried rice instead of what was listed on the menu, and they were very flexible with substitutions, which I appreciated. Everyone at the table enjoyed their meals. For 6 people, the bill came out to around $500… and somehow everyone managed to order about two drinks each .
Atmosphere:
Absolutely beautiful and romantic. The setting is scenic, right by the water, and the sound of the calm waves is peaceful and relaxing. This is definitely a dress-up kind of place. We all wore dresses with flats since you’re walking in the sand—they have an area where you can leave your shoes, which is a nice touch.
Service:
This is where it fell a bit short. The service was average to below average. Our server checked on us maybe once or twice, and the first time was only because I asked the bus boy to get her so we could order another round of drinks. Compared to other tables around us, we weren’t checked on very often. I’d rate the service a 3 out of 5 stars. That said, we still left an $80 tip.
Overall:
Great food and an amazing atmosphere—worth it for the experience and setting alone. Just wish the service matched the level of the rest of the restaurant.
We sat with get in the water and ended up with a table near the edge.
There is a shelf to leave your shoes and also a very nice foot Washing station to clean your feet on the way out.
We started with the oysters New Orleans style. It was really good.
Then came the Roasted Artichoke & Goat Cheese Salad. So good.
I got the Chicken Portobello. It was delicious and it was a huge portion. It can actually be shared with 2 people.
My husband got the seafood pasta. He enjoyed it.
For desert we hot the Baked Alaska which is set on fire at the table. The ice cream and sponge cake part was good. I didn’t love the merengue and sambuca part of it. I thought the merengue would be a little harder but it was soft. The sambuca was a bit strong. But after we mixed it all together, it was fine
So was the service by Edouard and Joanne. Couldn’t have been better taken care of.
The ambience is stunning so this is a ”must” visit restaurant in Aruba but book well in advance.
He had the Seafood Pasta & I had the Red Snapper special with vegetables, on a bed of mashed potatoes, with a white wine herb sauce. Pics below.
He was unhappy with the sauce on the pasta, though the seafood was excellent. He said it tasted “canned” & could have used some freshness from a few fresh tomatoes & herbs. My red snapper was fabulous!
The FF is expensive, with entrees starting at $38 ea & bar drinks starting at $13. With 2 drinks and 2 entrees, our total bill w/ tax & tip was $125. We will go back again, but once was enough per visit to Aruba since there is so much to taste on the island!
