Restaurant Tapas restaurant

😐 Beautiful view and nice ambiance. Food was flavorful but cold. Music was phenomenal. We had a pitcher of sangria and it tasted like fruit punch. I asked for more liquor and still tasted the same so in my opinion their sangria sucked. If you are looking for beautiful ocean views and need a quick bite...

    Beautiful view and nice ambiance. Food was flavorful but cold. Music was phenomenal. We had a pitcher of sangria and it tasted like fruit punch. I asked for more liquor and still tasted the same so in my opinion their sangria sucked. If you are looking for beautiful ocean views and need a quick bite to eat I recommend it but there’s better restaurants on this eagle beach strip.

    Great place...view of the beach and sunset is amazing. We had the avocado and shrimp appetizer. Then we had the skirt steak and short ribs for entree. Both were very good. Keith and Ernesto were great servers. Only minus was the swarm of flies (literally like 20-30 on our table)...not the restaurant's fault, but kinda ruined the experience. Oh yeah, the guitar player was incredible.

    We enjoyed dining at Las Ramblas so much. Make reservations in advance so you don’t have to wait like we did. We hung out in the bar for atleast 35 mins before we were able to be seated. Beautiful ambience right across from the beach, and they have live music. We ordered and shared the lobster bisque, Caribbean shrimp, skirt steak, seafood paella, and a carrot cake. They were very busy but the service was great and the food was fantastic.

    Bacon wrapped scallops were a little Over cooked. Lobster 🦞 bisque was very good lots of lobster in the dish. Main courses consisted of catch of the day, which was Maui Maui. Nice portion and was cooked to perfection, au gratin potatoes were ice cold. Had the potential to be good if they would have been hot. Sea bass was also very good and flaky. Flank steak was a little under cooked but had awesome flavor and tender.

    (Translated by Google) Excellent outdoor place, pleasant attention from the waiters, the menu is a bit varied, the problem is to park the vehicle, since the parking lot is small and you have to park a little further away, reasonable prices (Original) Excelente sitio al aire libre, agradable atención de los mesoneros, el menú es un poco variado, el problema es estacionar el vehiculo, ya que el estacionamiento es pequeño y hay que estacionar un poco mas lejos, precios modicos

    Where to even begin? Our server was amazing, he took terrific care of us. I had the skirt steak and my wife had the grouper as our main course, and the food was simply delicious. We had 8:00 PM reservations on Friday, started with some salads, and moved from there. I added creamed spinach, we both had baked potatoes. Amazing meal. Took dessert back to our room to have later, and I can’t say enough about the Key Lime pie. I wish I could give it all six stars!

    Went to Las Ramblas last night..what an amazing experience!!! Reservation was at 8pm..was finished by 915pm and was not rushed. It was one of the most delicious meal on the island. The ambiance was everything and we have to give a big New York shout out to our waiter Keith, he made the experience even better!

    (Translated by Google) Elegantly relaxed environment with live music. Last night he played a guitarist with a gypsy style, perfect for my last night in Aruba. If you are not big eaters, two appetizers could be enough to satisfy your needs. The only flaw the fumes of the fish grill sometimes invade the tables near the kitchen and it is not the best while you are enjoying a chocolate cake. (Original) Ambiente elegantemente rilassato con musica dal vivo. Ieri sera suonava un chitarrista con stile un po' gitano, perfetto per la mia ultima sera ad Aruba. Se non siete big eaters potrebbero bastarvi come a me due appetizer per saziarvi. Unica pecca i fumi della griglia del pesce a volte invadono i tavoli vicino alla cucina e non è il massimo mentre state gustando una torta al cioccolato.

    January 1, 2022 We had reservations for our celebrating my husband’s birthday at Las Ramblas however because some staff were away sick the Las Ramblas was closed and the regular grill restaurant was used. That definitely was the only change and we will come back at a later time to enjoy its magnificent view. The Mahi Mahi and Shrimp for the birthday boy and the 5 oz streak tenderloin for myself were both by far the best we have tasted. The dessert surprise with a fireworks display completed a memorable evening! Thanks to Manager Lino and and staff, especially the chef for a memorable evening.

    Great place to sit and watch the sunset. Spacious and across the street from Eagle Beach. My steak was well seasoned and I enjoyed it. I ordered an espresso martini which was poured nicely. I'd go back.

    2018: had another enjoyable dining experience. The charcoal grill really adds some flavor. 2017: The charcoal grill adds a great char and flavor to all the grilled items especially the steaks. The menus are backlit so the are very easy to read as it gets dark out. The strolling saxophone player really added to the relaxing ambiance.

    Dinner was amazing. The Chilean seabass was so good. Everyone ordered something different and raved about their meal. Staff was great, we had a group of 8 and it went very well. The musician played the best music. He really entertained us. Thank you for a memorable evening.

    Last time we were here this restaurant was just tapas. It has moved into an excellent restaurant I mean the steaks were delicious the pork tenderloin was delicious we had escargot and eggplant and bruschetta for appetizers. Everything was cooked to perfection! For dinner we had the Paia and several other dishes and everything was cooked perfectly. The thing is every place is beautiful in Aruba but very few places can you watch the sunset at Eagle Beach and this is literally right across the street. La Cabana Resort is beautiful it's in the lower rise section and this restaurant I think is independently owned because people were walking up from the street also. They have a guitar player playing music and singing and there's a noticeable entry from the street because there's two pillars with fire burning at the top. I would say the way to notice this is go to Eagle Beach and look to the left and you will find it. Must eat here, definitely worth it! Make reservations. Prices are high but worth it. We will be here every time we come to Aruba!

    Location very nice, music was very pleasant but the service very slow. Food okay. My "paela" was tasty but cold. If you want to enjoy, request from the beginning that they will pay attention to bring your meal hot.

    Maitre D was an absolute gentleman! Mom needed w/chair assistance given the long walk from the parking lot... it set the tone... Food was fabulous, the views spectacular!! And don't skip dessert 😋

  • 5/5 Dasha P. 3 years ago on Google
    What an amazing atmosphere complete with palm trees and fire. If you’re looking for a romantic dinner, watching the sunset, this is the one! Our 6M baby LOVED the lobster bisque lol. The steak was amazing, the fresh red snapper was perfectly done, and the creme brûlée hit the spot. The guitarist was sooooo fantastic as well!! Coming back for sure. 🔥

    Thanks for a such memorable night at the Ramblas!!!!! The places has an excelent view and the food was amazing. There was a live music. The captain which I dont remember the name was able set a table with nice view and engage with us during the night. Jonathan, the server was on top of the game making everything posible for us. He was flexible and able to do accomodations to our orders needs. Thanks you so much for an amazin night!!!. We will really recommend this site to our friends.

  • 5/5 Captain A. 1 year ago on Google
    We were staying at La Cabana, and on our last night we were just looking for a convenient place for dinner. Hence Las Ramblas It was a pleasant surprise. The food was very good, just shy of superb. The portions generous, and much more reasonably priced than we expected. The wine menu is limited, but we had a nice Chardonnay. The setting absolutely beautiful and the music a joy. With the right frame of mind, it’s rather romantic without being obvious. Overall, this is a hidden gem. And I hope it stays that way so next year we can get a reservation (it’s a relatively small outdoor restaurant). The only negative, and it’s really minor, they don’t have a large staff - so if u are looking for a really quick dinner - go elsewhere. But if u want great music, a beautiful setting, very good food and a staff that really does want u to have a nice dinner experience- this is the place to go.

    Nice place to have dinner near the beach. Food was good. Service was excellent. There are flies if you go just before sunset…but they disappear the moment the sun goes down.

  • 5/5 Brittnie R. 11 months ago on Google
    I'll start by saying, I'll be going back. I loved the food. Bread kicked off the meal and it was delicious, especially the pretzel bread. Next the bruschetta was full of tomatoes and delightful. It didn't appear like much, but the flavor was definitely there. Next, I had the beef and shrimp hot appetizers - wow! The beef was marinated well and tender. Small plates, so I would suggest one per person. Only two skewers of beef (total 4 slices of beef, two per skewer) and three skewers of shrimp (total 3 shrimp). The shrimp was delightful and served with chimichurri. Finally wrapped up with their creme brulee and carrot cake. The carrot cake is made in Aruba and was so moist and tasty. It was a large slice so shareable. Creme brulee was fine, probably won't order again. Lastly, a great place to watch the sunset!

    Fish of day red snapper was overcooked and rubbery. Had hard time cutting and chewing it. Server didn't check in for status of food until we were almost done with the dinner then said I was right about status of food after she had the cook verify it. Didn't feel there was any compassion about ruining my dinner and I eventually asked for compensation and then she said it was already taken care of. Didn't have to pay for my meal but very disappointed. The lobster bisque was 5 stars. Carrot cake was good and could have been more moist. The other meal ordered was paella and it was good. Overall atmosphere is nice, outside across from beach. Outside eating, the Aruba wind while eating can be annoying. Those with long hair should pull it up to minimize the frustration.

  • 3/5 ABBY S. 4 months ago on Google
    Service was slow and our waiter acted like he hated his job. I’m not sure if he was having a bad day or what but he wasn’t friendly at all. Food was really good they don’t open until 6pm and you have to make a reservation. They had live music and the view was amazing. I’d probably go back because the food was good and the carrot cake was incredible but do better with the service please!

    I have eaten here many times and always had a great meal. I always enjoy the guitar music in the background. However, this evening was violin and not nearly as good. I hope the guitarist returns.

    Dinner on Eagle Beach, Aruba. We had a 6:30 PM dinner and the outdoor location at the edge of Eagle Beach is divine. Our host was Keith and he did an amazing job. Fast, attentive, and his personality put us at ease. Recommended the three course dinner and he was not wrong. Helluva deal for outstanding food. I had the lobster bisque and seafood Paella and it wasn't lacking for fresh seafood. So good! My wife had steak and it was perfect. They cook over a wood fire so the flavors are great. We noticed the manager on duty also worked at the restaurant next door during the day. Have to give him a shout out. He does a very good job keeping both places running smoothly, and efficiently. Like any of the good restaurants here, definitely call, stop by or use open table for a reservation. Although busy, the tables are nicely spaced providing a comfortable atmosphere for dining.

  • 1/5 Joseph B. 3 months ago on Google New
    Food is okay, meat was fine, catch of the day, red snapper, was too dry and tough. Service was terrible. Waiting staff are crooks, I ordered expensive wine, they bought us a different wine that was half the price without telling us. Then they tried to charge me for the original.

  • 5/5 Ann P. 3 years ago on Google
    Great Dinner! Great Ambiance! Great Service! We had a party of 14 people they accommodated us during Covid 19. They broke us down into three tables. The kids were able to have one extra because he was underage at the table. Although the menu is varied mainly steaks and seafood they had an excellent special. A three-course me al for $30. The choices were filet mignon, seafood paella, or mahi-mahi. The starter was a salad that was delicious or lobster bisque. dessert was creme brulee or chocolate cake. Everyone enjoyed their meal and the kids were able to eat from the kids menu. Even though the food was delicious the big winner is where the restaurant is located. watching the sunset right across from Eagle Beach is a site everyone deserves to see. I am not a drinker however the ones that were drinkers at the table tried the homemade Sangria both with white and red wine and said it was fabulous. The menu was posted out front and you won't miss it because the steps coming up into the restaurant change colors and there is a lit fire tower on either side. The staff was excellent they followed all protocols and were lovely served our dinner in a timely manner I recommend this for all. if you're seeing this and questioning if you need reservations you do, they are not open 7 days a week and they book up quickly. I almost forgot several people had appetizers one had the bruschetta and loved it said it was delicious and fresh. two others have the bacon-wrapped scallops and said they were absolutely wonderful. The one person who did not have the special ordered the lamb chops and said they were cooked to perfection. I hope you enjoy the food we will be going as a family every year!

  • 5/5 Scott A. 4 years ago on Google
    Had dinner there several times over a month. Each time, great food, and outstanding service. Lino, the manager, keeps everything working perfectly. Best service I've had in any restaurant, anywhere. Nice beach view, making for beautiful sunset dinner. Everything from the appetizers to the deserts were outstanding. We had the bacon-wrapped scallop appetizers several times - our favorite. All the entrees we had were outstanding. My wife and I were on honeymoon in Aruba; and we were both extremely impressed with how professional and efficient the staff were. Without exception. all the restaurant staff were personable and friendly. We dined at other fine restaurants in Aruba - and some were excellent - but Las Ramblas and Lino's crew were consistently the best of the best. We found ourselves returning there again and again. We will definitely be returning to Las Ramblas on our future visits to Aruba.

    Excellent food, service and atmosphere. Outdoor dining at its finest. I'm a repeat customer, I never skip going there when on the island. Feb.2019- update. Better than last year! The tamarind glaze on the Chilean Seabass was great! New menu coming on 2/18/19.

    We just had dinner tonight at Las Ramblas located inside La Cabana resort, and it was unexpectedly mouth watering and their prices were very reasonable . I ordered the 3 course meal for $38 which included their salad or lobster bisque, and I chose the salad which was very refreshing and its dressing was delicious. My 2nd course was the filet mignon which was so tender, and the last course was a delicious creme brûlée that was smooth and creamy. The food and the staff and manager’s service at this charming outdoor restaurant is a 5 stars quality. We are going to go there again.

    Stopped by Las Ramblas to say hello to my friends Alondra and Shariin and was all of a sudden finding myself seated at a table and was told I was going to eat a late dinner. I closed the place down. Had lots of fun too! The menus are printed on translucent paper and placed on a hinged iPad like device. (You can see the lights coming out of the bottom corners on each side.) The restaurant overlooks the beach and the ocean. It has ornate gas lamp posts at the entrance. I had the bacon wrapped scallops for an appetizer and the catch of the day for the entré. The entré was red snapper with mashed potatoes, vegetable medley, with a delicious chimichurri sauce. The BEST part was the service by both Alondra and Shariin. Here's also a great sunset shot from the steps overlooking the beach!

    My wife and I did not have dinner reservations for Ramblas on Friday night and lucky for us they had a few available tables. The waiter suggested the fresh caught today Black Grouper and I absolutely loved every bite. My wife ordered a vegetarian dish that she said was very good also. The guitar player helped with a very nice outdoor ambiance. We will definitely be back. Also, service was great.

    We are owners at LaCabana. We have been pleased with Las Ramblas in past years, but this experience was terrible. The service is slow , very slow, never even asked if we wanted another glass of wine. Food is fine, prices fine. The worst part was the manager seated 6 drunk women who decided to turn the restaurant into their Karaoke bar. This ruined our evening and I doubt we will ever return. Too bad. not worth supporting our resort’s restaurant.
