    We have dined at Lima Bistro several times over the last few years. It has become one of our favorite Aruba restaurants, one that we visit on every trip. The menu has a Peruvian vibe both with the cocktails and the food. The Pisco Sours are outstanding, as are the food offerings. The bread service is delicious. Two slices of sourdough bread with a mustard based dip, and a butter spread mixed with port wine and smoked sea salt. On this trip we shared a special appetizer of Tuna Sashimi. It consisted of six slices of sashimi grade tuna topped with sliced radish, avocado and mango, and served over a flavorful sauce. The dish was outstanding. For entrees, we both opted for the Lobster special. It consisted of an 8 oz Caribbean lobster tail with a spicy crab sauce and topped with a mix of Thai basil and cilantro. Lima Bistro never disappoints and we look forward to returning on our next trip.

    Highly overrated. Sauces were tasty but meats were overcooked and tasteless. No kids menus. AND, $25 cocktails!!! Never again! Much better foods, services and prices found at many other restaurants on the island.

    De ceviche was geweldig, Verder de steak vond ik iets tegenvallen. Normaal gesproken hou ik erg van salade Maar door de manier hoe deze nu gepresenteerd werd was deze voor mij niet echt smakelijk.

    Altijd weer een culinair feestje bij Lima. Open keuken maakt het extra boeiend en gaaf om te zien hoe soepel ze daar werken ondanks de mega drukte.

    Restaurant was absolutely great! We loved the food and the ambiance. Only negative about the restaurant are the restrooms that don’t match their ambiance at all

    Had an awesome time at Lima. Had a reservation for outdoor seating, but they managed to get indoor seating for us. The service was great, and the food was delicious. The dessert of this month was The Nutella Cheesecake..it was the best! 😁

    We do not miss Lima when we are in Aruba. The food is always absolutely delicious and the drinks are fantastic. We began our meal with the scallop appetizer and the ceviche, both were excellent. Our entrees included the cowboy style pork chop, the Lomo Saltado, and a lobster special. All three were tasty and filling. We ended the evening by sharing a couple French toast desserts, probably my favorite dessert anywhere. I cannot recommend Lima enough.
