Papiamento Restaurant

Indulge in romance at Papiamento, Aruba's most upscale restaurant located inside a historical Aruban cunucu house.

The Ellis family welcomes you to their 175-year-old authentic Aruban manor house for an exquisite dining experience in lush tropical gardens, by the pool or in elegant, air-conditioned dining rooms.

Tour the hundred-year old Aruban home with a collection of rare Dutch-style antiques, and the impressive wine cellar before or after dinner. Choose from a selection of fresh seafood and delicious meats with a touch of Aruba, like their famous oyster soup or keshi yena (stuffed Gouda cheese).

House specialties include Eduardo’s seafood pot, a handmade clay pot filled with seafood, fines herbs and garden vegetables.
Mahi-mahi, lobster, lamb chops, medallions of tenderloin and Caribbean shrimp are served on a hot stone.
Seafood selections include oven-broiled filet of red snapper topped with shrimp and scallops; kebabs of skewered lobster, shrimp and fish, and fruits de mer á la crème. All mouthwatering good.

Papiamento is a member of the famous Chaine des Rotisseurs.
