Secreted away just off the main Palm Beach strip, seek out the hidden Buddha to find the twinkling lights that lead to an absolutely enchanting upscale Asian-fusion emporium with stunning decor and Aruba’s longest bar. Enjoy an eclectic selection of dim sum, sushi, and creative meat and seafood dishes that can be paired with sake, Japanese beer, and whiskey, or a killer handcrafted cocktail from their expert mixologists.

One of Aruba's most popular toes-in-the-sand spots (even their indoor dining has sand on the floor), it's all about creative, international fusion cuisine, comprehensive upscale wine choices, and superb signature cocktails in an ultimate barefoot-luxury setting.

This charming bistro dining spot is the quintessential meeting place for locals and visitors alike seeking great signature cocktails, creative tapas, quality coffee, and healthy lunch options, as well as a full dinner menu with dishes that range from chicken cordon bleu to beef tenderloin with Dutch potatoes. Suikertuin means “sugar garden” in Dutch and this spot is so named for the yellow sugar birds that frequent the courtyard behind this historic colonial heritage house.

What began as a catering company became so popular that they decided to open a brick-and-mortar café in the heart of downtown Oranjestad, so now you can dine inside their cheery new space to enjoy breakfast or lunch and an amazing selection of gourmet cheeses, quality charcuterie, and a surprising selection of fine wines, too. Grab one of their BC boxes to go for a perfect picnic, or a lavish platter of goodies to entertain guests back at your hotel.

This landmark family-run bakery has been a local favorite since it first opened in 1949, and it's still home to the island's most authentic baked goods including epic cakes, cupcakes, and pastries. There are also sandwiches and savory snacks like pastechis and hot dog broodjes, as well as fancy afternoon tea service, but reservations must be made 48 hours in advance for it.

The cheery Ritz-Carlton breakfast spot known as Solanio takes on a whole new identity in the evenings as it transforms into Casa Nonna (meaning grandmother's house), dedicated to serving up authentic Italian cuisine. Service is exquisite (they even have a cocktail cart) and you can taste the care put into the handmade pastas and sauces. Don't miss the Mediterranean sea bass or grilled octopus for that real Italian coastal flavor, too. Snag a table outside to catch spectacular sunsets and soft live music by the firepit.

The bizarre rock formations at Casibari, which may make you feel as if you've dropped into Fred and Wilma Flintstone's dining room, make a great backdrop to this casual, offbeat restaurant, where wood-fired barbecue is king. Your generously portioned meal will be fire grilled under the stars, always accompanied by delicious sides that include coleslaw, Caribbean rice, and Casibari beans. Seating is strictly alfresco. After dark, the rocks are playfully illuminated for the nighttime crowd—this is a regular stop for the Kukoo Kunuku party bus dinner tour.

Since 1941, Charlie's Bar has been the heart and soul of San Nicolas, famous for its interior decorated with the eclectic bric-a-brac left behind by decades of international visitors. But it also serves surprisingly good food, including superb fresh fish and shrimp, as well as killer steaks. Charlie's also bottles and sells its own brand of hot sauce called "Honeymoon Sauce." Lunch or a very early dinner are the only options since closing time is generally 6 pm.

This red-hot landmark establishment in the heart of Renaissance Marketplace specializes in traditional Havana specialties and is the only spot on Aruba where you can enjoy an authentic Cuban sandwich for lunch. Their boast of having the best mojitos in town is a fair claim, and there's even a surprisingly good selection of gluten-free, vegetarian, and vegan fare on offer. The atmosphere is fun and friendly, and the location is ideal for people-watching along the seaport marina.

Don’t let the rustic decor fool you: this is not your average Italian resort eatery, though it's an inviting choice for large groups. Da Vinci pulls out all the stops to present a seriously upscale, authentic, and creative menu of Mediterranean favorites. Tucked away in the Holiday Inn, it’s well worth seeking out for killer incarnations of osso buco, homemade pastas, and seafood served Italian-style, plus great vegan options. There's also a fabulous wine room with a surprisingly comprehensive selection of vintages from around the world. It's family-friendly, too, with a kids' menu and big communal tables for groups. Dining at Da Vinci Ristorante is included in the resort's all-inclusive program.

A stellar spot with stunning seaside views, this strictly adults-only dining spot embodies the resort's global reputation for promoting green living and a healthy lifestyle.

The popular Authentic Aruban & Caribbean lunch and dinner buffet is offered Monday--Saturday.

If you’re seeking something more pubby than clubby, sleuth out this casual and comforting spot tucked away on Cove Mall's far corner facing the Holiday Inn parking lot. It’s all about the beer and the bites here, as Fireson offers up their own craft beer and authentic Aruban comfort food like funchi fries with cheese, croquettes, and empanadas (pastechis’ close cousin). They also serve homemade Angus burgers, lots of styles of wings, tacos, and quesadillas. This is Aruba’s first microbrewery, so it’s more about the beer than the fare, as good as it is, and these folks are fun and friendly and really know their brews.

Opened in 1977, this was the first restaurant in Aruba to offer feet-in-the-water dining, and that's why the legendary landmark is so worth the trek out to Savaneta for its insanely romantic seaside setting. An international menu is designed to please all palates, but the real culinary draw is fish straight from the island’s most famous local fisherman’s pier located a few doors over. The setting is enchanting, with fabulous sunset views giving way to twinkling lights of tiki torches and lights set in the sea; even the indoor decor is awash with artificial stars. Reserve well in advance for a table in the water.

What began as a classy laid-back wine and tapas piano bar, has evolved into more of a New York-style steak lounge meets BBQ joint thanks to the popularity of the Big Green Egg BBQ trend. Once they began using this ceramic outdoor charcoal grill to offer up big hearty juicy cowboy steaks and grilled lobster tails, the aroma and smoke drew an entirely different kind of hungry and hearty crowd. There's still live music and a great selection of tapas and wines by the glass if you want to just pop in before or after visiting the Alhambra Casino next door. In fact, they won a 2021 Wine Spectator Award.

Completely reimagined in 2018 as a contemporary poolside dining option at Manchebo Resort, the new menus and special nights are attracting people seeking inspired Caribbean-international cuisine, and vegans are especially excited about an entire menu devoted to gourmet plant-based dining. Creative preparations of meat, seafood, and fish—locally sourced whenever possible—are all enhanced with flavors from the on-site fresh herb garden, and the chef often surprises with exotic daily specials.

Created in spring 2021 by legendary local chef Urvin Croes, one of the island’s most innovative purveyors of ultramodern cuisine, this new chef’s table experience offers infinite possibilities for the palate. The “Chef’s Impression” experience is an extensive 12-course themed menu based on world flavors and seasonal, locally sourced (whenever possible) ingredients; the plating of each dish is often so exquisite you might hesitate to dig in, but don't. Pair with craft cocktails or wine by the glass for an additional cost.

The new café in the beautifully restored historic Nicolaas Store in the heart of downtown San Nicolas serves up great barista-style hot and iced coffees and snacks. With seating indoors or out, this is an ideal pit stop before or after exploring the outdoor art.

You need not be a vegan or seeking gluten-free options to thoroughly enjoy the creative takes on the strictly plant-based fare at this happy little nook, but if you are, it’s bound to be your new paradise. It’s tiny though, so if you intend to dine in, reservations are a must, though there is a bustling take-out and delivery business, too. The owners also organize cool events like vegan hikes, vegan cruises, and vegan sushi nights, too.
