    We have been coming to madame Janette’s for 15 years On every visit to Aruba this is a must night for dinner! Everything was expectable, I was just a little disappointed in my Grouper Almonde which what I always get…. It wasn’t encrusted with as many almonds as usual a the spinach cream sauce although very good was a lot less sauce then usual.

    Absolutely incredible! Excellent food and service. Do not worry about portion sizes they are generous. Try the 21 Spoons dessert- it is delicious and will be enough for 4 or more!!!

    Another great dinner at my favourite restaurant in Aruba! We started with some special cocktails and an oaky bottle of Chardonnay with the special Bang Bang shrimp and lettuce wedge salad apps. Main courses were the famous almond grouper fish and the enormous burger that can feed four. Staff are always friendly and outgoing with special thanks to Lizzy who always takes care of us! Would highly recommend going and experiencing a great dinner outside listening to live music.

    Lobster ravioli (2) yum. Never had them this good. Bang bang shrimp had the bang..quantiful and delish. We shared the Almond crusted Grouper which was perfection…sharing charge ($12) but comes with 2 sides. Madame Janettes coconut cake comes with a side of gelato and whip cream. Huge portion fills a dinner plate. Wise to share
