    Absolutely loved the food! One of the best meals I have had in Aruba. The saté and chicken roti were to die for. I would come back if I was staying longer! A great local gem for some great Surinamese food

    When it come to Surinamese food, Yanti in my humble opinion is right up there as one of the best! Now located in Oranjestad, the new location is very chic. Although a tad bit smaller than the previous spot, the new space is well suited and bright. The food is, as its always been, simply great! I've tried numerous dishes on the menu and none have fallen short so far. What's nice about the restaurant is the staff and how friendly and attentive they are. All in all a great place to show off to friends and family especially if they are first timers. Always spotless and clean. There is special parking on the side for customers. The plants are a nice touch as well

    One of the best restaurants in the area. Generous portions, reasonable prices, and super friendly service. The lumpia and fried plantains were delicious and crunchy. The curry roti was huge, and quite flavorful. The chicken sate was just a bit dry. Great food overall!

    Their food was great and filling, and the lady was really nice! I enjoyed the decor inside, but came at a not-busy time so I cannot comment on the atmosphere. All-in-all, I would recommend it!

    It's ok

  • 4/5 Jairo V. 4 years ago on Google
    One of the few restaurants to eat your delicious authentic Suriname cuisine. You'll get an excessive amount of peanut sauce on the side though, more than sufficient to cover the whole plate.

  • 5/5 Henriette W. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The food is really great and absolutely not expensive. Operation incredibly friendly. Surinamese tastiest Indian food on the island. The new location is a nice improvement, much cozier and cozier than the old location. I recommend it to everyone. (Original) Het eten is echt geweldig en absoluut niet duur. Bediening ontzettend vriendelijk. Lekkerste Surinaams Indisch eten op het eiland. De nieuwe lokatie is een mooie verbetering, veel knusser en gezelliger dan de oude locatie. Ik raad het iedereen aan.

    The food is delicious and the price is way worth multiple visits! Highly recommend trying the banana chips and Brong Brong snacks! Amazing service and great food from Roti to my favorite the Moksi Meti.

    Great food, good prices and friendly service. The cashier counter attendant is the friendliest I have encountered on the island. Okay, the waiter was also friendly and accomodating ;-). Good job guys.

  • 3/5 Natura Y. 1 year ago on Google
    I loved the food and the service. But after having tried other Surinamese restaurants I can say that the Roti had little variety of vegetables, only potato, sprouds and green vegetables. The attention was very good. Thank you for your services

    They have Suriname and Indonesian food. I took the Lamb Curry, which was cooked very well. One of the best lamb meat I have ever tasted, it was not chewy and very well seasoned.

  • 5/5 Jim P. 6 months ago on Google
    Delicious Surinamese food. Very friendly service. Very helpful deciding what to order.

  • 5/5 Brandon P. 4 months ago on Google
    Just excellent Surinamese food at an exceedingly reasonable price on the island. Easy access from the downtown Oranjestad tram (take to final stop and a short walk from there) or very doable walk from the Renaissance or the cruise port. This is very much a locals’ place; while I received phenomenal service in impeccable English, I heard Spanish, Dutch, and Papamiento during my visit. AC is ice cold and so are the beers. Get a Parbo, order a broodje, and enjoy the extra spicy pepper sauce.

  • 4/5 De Grins Oer Dairy/ Okkema Dairy F. 5 years ago on Google
    Friendly manager. Small eatery right on the main road. Really looked forward to eating some Bami only to be told they were out of bami noodles. Do not be in a rush to eat. Took a while to be served, but the meals was a welcomed change from other resturant flavors.

  • 5/5 Giselle C. 3 years ago on Google
    Defitively off the beaten path but a hidden gem for sure. Family oriented/run establishment w/ fusion of Surinamese and Indonesian flavors. Was attracted by the fact they had roti and curry on the menu!!! The space is small n intimate practiced social distance for sure still. Server was one of the daughters of the owner and she was the friendliest. She's good at her job 4 sho.... prices are very reasonable.. The food was scrumptious and large portion sizes..... a definite try for any visitors to Aruba.... will return on next visit for sure.

  • 4/5 Peter A. 3 years ago on Google
    Surinamese-Indonesian cuisine is really unique. For something different as a treat to your palate, Yanti is a place to go. A simple but nicely furnished ambiance enforces focus on the taste.

  • 5/5 mirugia de C. 3 years ago on Google
    The best bami with saté.

  • 5/5 Nikhil G. 3 years ago on Google
    Great food, portions and service. The place was recommended to us by a local and it lived up! They were so kind to give us a complimentary appetizer. Would recommend the roti and bone-in chicken curry.

  • 5/5 Kasim K. 3 years ago on Google
    A mix of traditional Suriname and Indonesian food with great service. Leche cake for dessert to die for. The fried plantains are so very good. All at a reasonable price point! Which is difficult to find in Aruba, good food at a reasonable price.
