USDA and Argentine Beef

Actually beef comes from US and Argentina - Depends on the restaurant. El Gaucho, Tango, Mme J's and Amazonia(?) feature Argentine Beef. Sunset Grille, Texas d' Brazil (a US based chain), Pago Pago and LG Smiths feature USDA beef. Pretty sure that the French Steakhouse uses Argentine. Suisse Chalet....? Dunno! Le Dome and Papiamento (sp) I think use Argentine. 53 days.......can't wait....1st stop Palm Beach, 2nd stop Mme J's......next stop Sunset Grille......

We used to prefer El Gaucho, but now the French Steakhouse is our fave for that kind of fare.

Husband and I did Pago Pago last year and it was great!!!
Also surprises us always, La Terraza is not your usual steak place, but the portobello steak is well worth your while.
Further, husband does not really like that kind of dining - stuffing up on meat, but we always still enjoy Amazonia.
Steak comes indeed from Argentina and US(DA).

We've gotten very good steaks at many different restaurants but if I had to choose the best I would have to say Sunset Grille at the Radisson.

There are some restaurants in Aruba that do not serve Argentine beef. Two that come to mind are The Sunset Grill and Marandi's.

Are there restaurants close to Marriott Ocean?

The Sunset Grille has awesome steaks, impeccable service and is voted one of Aruba's best restaurants.
