Absolutely Amazing! I encourage everyone visiting Aruba and those who live local to dine at this resturant. They have something for everyone. The menu has amazing dishes to include Indonesian, Bali Seafood, Fresh caught fish, Lamb Chops, Steak, Pork Chops, something for everyone. The food is amazing. Filled with flavors and prepared to perfection. The restaurant has a full bar menu and also prepare the best tasting home made fresh juices such as Pomegranate, Papaya, Ginger, Coconut etc. The Pomegranate is my favorite and delicious! The Service is absolutely impeccable 👌🏾. Truly a 5 star dining feel with attention to every detail. Everything that our table orders was absolutely delicious and flavorful. This resturant does a perfect job. Stop in or make a reservation and I guarantee this will be one of your favorite dinner spots in Aruba.

Food was pretty good, place was clean, but a 10% service charge was off putting, nowhere else in my travels all week and trips prior was a service charge added to the bill. Maybe this is needed for the cruisers but felt it was maybe predatory since all the fine dining places we visited didn’t have this fee.

The red snapper fillet with shrimp was perfectly cooked and seasoned! Our waiter, Marlon, was excellent. He was friendly and helpful. For my birthday, they surprised me with table decorations, a cake, and a sparkle candle. Excellent meal and service!

I had the best date ever at this restaurant. The whole experience was top notch. I did rate the food 4 stars because some of the dishes weren't made the traditional way for e.x instead of an cooked egg, we got a fried egg. And of the dishes was missing the Long Tong when it said that there would be long tong in it but that didn't take away much from the whole experience. The staff was super nice and attentive. I would eat here again.

After living in SE Asia 4 years and being married to an Indonesian woman for 12 years, this is definitely the best Indonesian food I’ve had outside of Indonesia! Gado gado was excellent, and the nasi rames was fantastic, though more than either of us could eat. One man did all of the table waiting, seating, and bartending, so service was a bit slow. But he was very good and the food was worth the wait. Highly recommend.
