would like some input from vegans or vegetarians that have traveled to aruba. was it about the same as eating at any given restaurant in the states? thank in advance!

Yes, it is possible to be a vegetarian and visit Aruba. I did that several years ago. I lived in Bermuda. You can always request a meal free of meat, seafood or poultry.

My husband is a vegetarian and we had no problems at the restaurnts in Aruba. The chefs were wonderful, making him special dishes. Some places we enjoyed that had vegetarian dishes on the menu were Cuba's Cookin', Valentino's and Salt and Pepper. The Amazonia had a wonderful salad bar he just loved. As for vegan dining, that's a different story. I think that would be difficult as most things have cheese and eggs.

Sure is!!!! There is an abundance of fruit, veggies and salads. Some with a different twist on their preparation. No problems.

Hi Shele,
i am a vegetarian- i have been traveling to aruba for the past 6 years. so far i haven't had any problems at all regarding what to eat. if you eat seafood, as i do, then you will be just fine. even steak places like el gaucho serve seafood dishes, as well as a vegetarian plate.
in my opinion, madame janette's and driftwood have the best seafood!! good luck and enjoy!!!
