After five this becomes the heartbeat of Pietermaai small, an old , completely revamped part of Willemstad! It's a unique combination of relaxing gardenlounging, teatime , happy hour , European dining and after dark a crazy happening barscene!! The breakfast, lunch , snacks and dinner are quite nice, very European, all prepared in a kitchen that's in full view for... More

Great ambiance, al-fresco dining, and pleasant wait staff. What they call a rib eye steak is a bit substandard, but everyone else's meal was just fine.

This restaurant came highly recommended, but we were disappointed. The escargot appetizer we had was very good. My wife liked the lobster bisque, but I thought it was subpar. Our entrees were okay, but not great. It was the most expensive meal we had in Curacao ($90 for 2 including tax, tip, and 1 mojito each). O'Portos was much better.

Decent food and good drinks. The reason people are here is really for the atmosphere, and live music when they have it. Excellent date spot.

We had had a few drinks there the previous evening. But on meeting the friendly lady from Brabant (southern Holland) we decided to have our special dinner there on the following night. We were very happy we did. The drinks were ok but the food was great! They had a large choice of veggie starters and mains. So we ordered... More

Nice decorated Cuban style restaurant. The food was very good and reasonable (higher class) prized. It is possible to sit inside, in the 'alley' or even upstairs. If possible, make a reservation inside so you fully can enjoy the Cuban style.

We went there to celebrate my wife's birthday and hoping to have some Saint Patricks fun, but they were not in that mood. Maybe it was not an Irish Pub but it had a beauty of its own. The food was delicious and the music was great. The ambience was perfect, old house with tacky decoration, even huge chandaliers. After... More

Mundo Bizarro is a lovely and interesting neighbourhood cafe in Punda. Friday nights are a good time to go. The cafe has live music and everyone in the neighbourhood seems to drop by.

To be fair, I wasn't feeling well so we didn't get the full experience but this is what I do know: they will charge you for bread, they will charge you for water, even if you request tap water, the Cornish hen will be dry, the mushroom salad with Brie will be bland. The atmosphere was cool and had a... More

They serve really nice drinks. Really cool place to have some drinks and bites. The dinner menu was a bit disappointing. We tried the chefs menu. The food was good but also expensive. Good place to have some drinks and bites, don't stay for dinner.
