Anyone have a recommendation for a fun family dinner? We will be in Aruba for my birthday and our 10th anniversary....grandma is watching the kids for anniversary while hubby I enjoy dinner at Passions (our favorite). I'd like to go out for my bday as well, but with the whole gang... the kids are somewhat picky so we are limited to places that serve things like chicken fingers for them.

Thanks in advance for your suggestions

i agree with Andrea. My kids LOVE Bucaneer!! The first time they were there they were 4 and 6 and are now 15 and 13 and still love it. They ask to go there every year. If you get there when they first open you should have no problem getting a table by the fish tank. It keeps their attention for a long time!! They also enjoy Iguana Joes. Since the restaurant is upstairs they can see a lot going on. Last year they watched a cruise ship leave. It was neat. I am sure you will find a lot of places to go. Enjoy!!!
