We have been to Que Pasa 3 times over the last 2 years. We had 2 good experiences and 1 bad.

Our first two visits were perfect - the food was great - the ambience was great.

The 3rd visit - we had a rude waitress and I had a mixed grilled fish platter that was served with one piece of fish that was nearly uneadible. Maybe it was just one bad piece of fish and noones fault - but we havent been back since.

My wife and I go to Que Pasa at least twice a week when we're in Aruba. The food is good, the dutch waitresses and bartenders are fantastic (and blonde), and the desert is really good too! See you in 9 months!

We enjoy Que Pasa and really like the manager Stijn. We only wish they had a caesar salad for DS as he doesn't eat any other appetizer.

So that your post doesn't confuse anyone with the name....I believe you're referring to Marandi.

A new restaurant, Barefoot, has also opened recently. Had the pleasure of dining there a few weeks ago and both the food and ambiance were great.

Back to the original question....

We have dined many times at Que Pasa at both its old and new location. Haven't been there in a few years now. Not sure why. I think it's because there are so many new restaurants opening up that we like to try a few new ones. At Que Pasa we always enjoyed the fish specials (like Wahoo) and the fact that it was prepared in a very simple way without alot of heavy sauces. We will try to stop by again on our next trip.

Been to Que Pasa many times. We have not been there for a year or two because the menu became somewhat limited. Do you have a new menu? I will check online to see if you have it there. We may have to try again this year. Be there next Friday!

We have eaten there each year for several years. Food and service has always been very good.

Can't wait to have the banana fritters again this December.
