4.7 / 5.0(267 reviews)

My husband and I went to CAYA for dinner for our last night in Aruba. We were immediately impressed with the gorgeous ambiance. We each had cocktails that were impeccably crafted and delicious. We did the $69 special where we each got to pick an appetizer, entree and dessert (a steal of a deal for how nice this restaurant is). We first got a complementary serving of bread and a delicious buttery spread. It was *so good* we ended up ordering another serving. We got the scallops and octopus for our appetizers. Both were delicious and beautifully plated! For entrees we got the duck and corvina. I preferred the corvina. The duck was good but we agreed that the beet sauce overwhelmed everything else on the plate in terms of flavor. Overall this is a fantastic place for a romantic dinner for two. Our server was attentive and incredibly kind. There were some children there but I wouldn’t say this is the best place for kids due to the sophisticated menu. We look forward to coming back here! Such a great experience. The atmosphere is great and it’s just a short walk from the resorts. They've recently restructured the menu, but everything was delicious and I recommend doing the elevator meal combo which includes an appetizer, main course and dessert. Everything was amazing but the desserts were especially wonderful. Thank you dear Caya house. Until next time! Our experience at CAYA was by far the best restaurant experience we had in Aruba. The setting is lovely, regardless of where you are sitting. Our server, Kimberly, was a real pro. She was personable, knew each dish intimately, and gave great suggestions along the way. The food was presented beautifully and each bite was amazing. The dishes were so interesting that we had to ask about the seasonings. We loved the simple pricing model as it took price out of the equation. At the same time the prices were very reasonable for the quality of the food. We can’t recommend CAYA enough!

WOW. What a meal. We did the $69pp special and it was sooooo much food. We were definitely super full at the end that we had to take our dessert to go but it was one of the best meals we’ve had. Felt like a Michelin star restaurant. For vegetarians - highly reccomend the black bean hummus app and the mushroom rice main. It was like a paella. So flavorful and tasty!!!

Vegan options were amazing…service was superior!! Dessert was one of my favorites, but I also loved their fresh salads and bread. We celebrated two birthdays there and were treated so special. From the waitress/waiter to the manager, everyone was really kind and made sure we were taken well care of in the establishment.
