Can you recommend a good seafood restaurant please?

We are going to Aruba in April and would love to go out for some good fresh seafood. We especially love Mahi Mahi, but any frsh fish would be great. Our kids like chikcekn fingers, etc. Any place that has really good seafood with a kids menu too.

One that comes immediately to mind is Cooks Restaurant. They have an amazing Grilled Grouper in Thermidor sauce. Their Mahi Mahi and their broiled lobsters are superb. Others are: DriftwoodMarina Pirata for their Broiled Red SnapperWackey Wahoo is very good.Buccaneer is excellentVaradero at the Yacht Club behind the airport.

Welcome to Aruba,
Many great restaurants in Aruba to enjoy seafood-
Buccaneer Restaurant
Captains Table-
Blossoms
Pirates Nest @ Bucuti
Simply Fish @ Marriott
Sunset Grill @ Radisson
Hadicurrari next to Moomba
Wacky Wahoo's
The fishing pier is right at Moomba if interested in buying a fresh fish and BBQ at your resort. Mant guests love that idea and purchase garlic butter and place it right on the grill and enjoy the freshest cooked by yourself.
Enjoy Aruba

Capturing the passion and love of your special day .

The Fishbone is pretty good, but a ways away from the hotels. It is a little expensive but you eat right on the beach. Not a bad drive if you have a car!

one that has been here in aruba for many many years is the driftwood right down town.they have their own yacht boat called the driftwood as well and they will go out every day to bring in the catch of the day.so it is guaranteed fresh fish.and also the kids can enjoy eating chicken

Hi ! We always stay at Marriott Surf Club, but have started venturing around. We live right by NYC so we can have that great fish here at home. Hadicurari serves fish caught fresh on the sea and brought back to the pier. They have a children's menu as does Moomba's. At the Ocean Club at the Marriott, there's "Simply Fish". Bring the kids and sit at a table right on the beach. The kids can play in the sand like my baby does, and the ambiance at sunset is breathtaking. I had the Mahi Mahi and it was outstanding. Enjoy !!
