    Some of the best food on the island People avoid thinking it’s overpriced hotel food They’re wrong. Kids menus is cheap and vast and the food overall is much better than 90% of the local restaurants on the island. I’ve been coming here 50 years and had avoided the Hyatt for the past 10 because of a previous “typical” experience. The food, decor, service and overall experience is MUCH improved. Don’t miss!

    Beautiful restaurant! Very accommodating to food allergies. I can’t have gluten or dairy and they had GF/DF bread with oil. It was so good! The waiter was so sweet, helpful and amazing. The dishes we got were very good. A must go to if you’re in Aruba!

    This restaurant is absolutely lovely, the ambience is perfect. The service was very good, except for a small mixup with our orders which they corrected immediately. The Chilean sea bass was cooked to perfection and I loved the coconut basmati rice, so needless to say I loved my meal. There were 6 in our group and everyone enjoyed their choices from the menu. In terms of price, a little too high in my opinion, but that’s Aruba overall. But would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone.

    Overall, this place, never disappoints. We love going to dinner at the Hyatt. We’ve been coming into this island for 25 years. My wife and I both got fish and the seafood salad. Was outstanding. The service was excellent and they were very tentative. Would definitely recommend.
