   We really enjoyed our dinner, the food was delicious, the ambiance was great and the guy playing the piano was fabulous. Not too loud that we could hear our ourselves talk, and we were sitting right next to him. Everything was perfect. Highly recommend!

   Read the reviews, I wish I would have! The only thing that is appealing about this place is the girl who does acrobats. We ordered millionaire bacon as an app, my husband the pork belly for dinner and I got the catch of the day. Beware - the millionaire bacon and the pork are the EXACT same dish. The waiter did not warn us about this. The catch of the day, amberjack (I am adventurous eater and it sounded delicious) that the waiter described it as a similar fish to Chilean seabass, it was not - super dry, not buttery and overcooked. After multiple attempts to try and make the best of it, I regretfully had to send it back. Update: Since writing the review, the owner has reached out to make things right. While the first experience left much to be desired, the efforts to go above and beyond are greatly appreciated and we are willing to give this restaurant one more shot.

   Sat where we could see the kitchen and it was clear that they took pride in the food they were serving as well as how it was presented to the customer. Beautiful food that tasted great.

   I didn't like that they did not have the dishes they advertise on their website. For Appetizer we took the sashimi shots which were literally drowning in soy sauce. Soy sauce was not mentioned in the description! The Mahi Mahi trio was good but I didn't like the rest. would not go again.

   Food was excellent. A couple of our key menu items were not available which was a real pity. Felt the quality of food and portion size was excellent, as was the ambience outside.

   Joshua stole the show today. I was feeling fancy so we got the caviar service and the lobster thermidor. Great server, service and this place is my favorite go to seafood spot in Aruba. The piano player was happy to play my request. This made my night. They remember me and brought me out those shots as a complimentary starter. Stuffed and happy.

   1) Didn’t love the location - on a noisy main road. 2)Food was bland, sent fish back . 3)drinks were average - fancy but not much alcohol.i4) it was an expensive disappointment. They had some interesting entertainment - arial artist. Update: owner reached out and was interested in our experience …and tried to remedy the situation with reimbursement and picking up the tab for another visit.
