"Haute Cuisine à la Curaçao" - Nachtigal
We had the great honour to get the table in the small backyard of the restaurant with a direct view in the really really tiny kitchen. But what comes out of that tiny kitchen is really great.
"French restaurant with Caribbean twist" - Benny Plaisier
Great place for French kitchen with a Caribbean twist! Chef Stefan knows how to wield the spoons, pots and pans!
"Don't miss out!" - Janice Montgomery
The dinner was delicious. Probably the best meal we had during our stay in Curacao, and we ate at many fine establishments while here on the island. The service was excellent and very friendly...
"OMG sooo good... spoiled forever" - Marjan R
Obviously the restaurant is serious about their wines and they are still very reasonably priced. And yes they serve Cristal champagne. The service was good, it was obvious they had a lot of returning customers. Our server had a cheeky typical Dutch sense of humor adding some more flavor to an already fantastic meal.

"Fantastic!" - Rob W
This is a great place and the setting could not have been more perfect, as well as the meal. They are very accommodating and you will feel welcomed when you first arrive. I wish I would have visited earlier on my trip so I would have had time to visit one more time!!!
"My favorite restaurant" - Kaye Homam
This has to be one of my favorite places. The food is great. The service very well. I can't wait to go again.
"Outstanding" - Bart Raice
Good food and wine selection for decent prices, as simple as that. Baoase might be slightly better but we think this is for sure the nr2 restaurant on the island. We had the luck during our second visit they just got fresh lobster as catch of the day.
