   We went twice this week the first time the service was good and 2nd time we waited over 2 hours to get our food and no one ever checked on us to see if we needed our drinks refilled. They overbooked and did not have enough staff. The food both times was just ok, not much flavor. The view and the ambiance is stunning.

   The location and setting is absolutely amazing, it goes down hill fast from there. The service is Extremely SLOOOW, took over 2 hours for dinner for 2 people. The sea bass taste fishy and rubbery, like a frozen store bought piece of fish. It’s disappointing to write this review because we had a great experience here a few years ago, but after tonight w I’ll definitely not be back, there are way too many great restaurants in Aruba to waste another meal here

   This was the worst restaurant that we visited while in Aruba. We planned Atardi for our last night and a 50th birthday dinner. We had a 6:45 reservation and were seated around 7:00. There were at least 25 other tables with guests. We were able to get drinks and bread within the first 15 minutes then it went downhill from there, We didn't get an appetizers, just food. At 9:00, we still didn't have our food. Our server wasn't very attentive because he had so many other tables so we didn't really feel that it was his fault that he never checked on us and we had to stop the assistant server to get more drinks. As we were ready to leave, we got our food. The sea bass was slimy inside and very fishy tasting. The red snapper was better but had a weird taste. We ask that it be taken off the bill so that we could leave. I felt really bad for our server because other tables were asking for their entrees to be taken off the bill also because their food was also bad. It was not the servers fault, at all. The manager, Marlene, took the entrees off the bill but didn't speak with us or apologize, just stared at us while we signed the bill. We spent over 2 hours, $80 for 4 drinks and didn't get dinner on our last night in Aruba. This Marriott property really needs to look at the management of this restaurant,

   The ambiance was lovely. The servers themselves were very nice. The food was good. However, we ordered two appetizers, only got one. Got mocktails, good but sweet. We ordered food at the same time as the appetizers and the time between appetizer and meal was 70min. We were never asked if we wanted more drinks.

   This place was beautiful! Right on the water during sunset couldn’t ask for a better place to be. The food was a little disappointing. For the price I did not expect my mahimahi entree to be dry but it was :( I didn’t want to send it back I felt awkward (I’m one of those) my boyfriend’s surf n turf was delicious! lobster was tough but OH MY the steak was so good! Ceviche app was lovely. And the ambience was great are servers were attentive! Drinks were decent!

   The food was delicious The ceviche was really tasty. The lobster salad has such a light dressing . The scallop with corn was amazing also the octopus was really really good especially with the sauce  and our server Oscar was absolutely the best.  Can’t wait to come back.

   The location and service was excellent, however the food was probably some of the worst I’ve had while in Aruba. We tried three different dishes and all were subpar and the flavors didn’t compliment each other.

    Magical first night in Aruba. Food was delicious. Attentive service. The best part was the table right next to the water.
