We originally came just for drinks, and the cocktails were amazing. After sitting for a while we decided to try some food, and we’re so glad we did. The burger and flat iron steak were honestly some of the best we’ve ever had. The owner was incredibly friendly, and we had such a nice conversation with her. The atmosphere was fantastic. Great drinks, delicious food, and a welcoming vibe. Highly recommend! We came here twice during our recent visit to Bonaire. The first night was just to grab some post-dinner drink and enjoy sunset. We had a fantastic table right out front and enjoyed our view. Before we left, we booked a dinner reservation for later in the week. Our dinner reservation was just as wonderful. We sat and my husband started off with a rum flight, specifically curated by the bartender and we were provided a great explanation; all four choices were unique. We ordered drinks with our dinner; I had tacos (jackfruit and brisket) and my husband ordered the large steak. My brisket tacos were the favorite of our meal. We enjoyed the sunset and had incredible spot once again to enjoy. Overall the experience was positive. Highly recommend coming here for sunset and enjoying the view with a couple of drinks post-dinner. They have plenty of seating, but to get a sunset spot, come early. Staff are friendly and service is great. This review is long overdue from our trip to Bonaire earlier this year, but one thing is certain, my husband and I have not stopped thinking about Hooked By Sunsets. We didn’t discover this incredible restaurant until the last few days of our trip. It was recommended by a local guide, and after many meals with a great view and mediocre food, we decided it was worth a try. Best decision of the trip when it comes to dining out! The view is incredible, but don’t let it fool you because the food and the hospitality are equally exceptional. We stopped for dinner several times to enjoy favorites from the previous night, while trying other options on the menu and from the bar. Anything with brisket, ribs and all homemade pasta was absolutely perfect. The quality and consistency of the food, drinks and exceptional service demonstrates the high level of customer service and true hospitality expected by the owners. Roxy, with her special attention to each customer and openness, was an added bonus to each visit. We instantly felt like part of the Hooked family. This will be the first stop on our return trip and should be yours too if you love high quality food, welcoming atmosphere and stellar view. Dare to be Hooked by Sunsets, I know we are! Disclaimer - High quality takes time. This is not a drive through, so if you aren’t used to a well paced meal, come with additional patience and prepare to be wowed.

Shout out to my Trini sister Roxy for her amazing hospitality and welcoming nature. After our excursion at Klein, we needed to refuel. It was happy hour and Hooked by Sunsets, welcomed us with open arms. A few steps from the docks, The exterior was inviting. What a perfect place to unwind and have some appetizers and drinks. Welcoming service. We Will be back! Check out their specials during the nighttime hours. They host late into the night for you partygoers!

A new chef is here and the food is great now! Don’t miss the smoked brisket, rendang bitterballen and sticky cauliflower. Drinks are tasty, not too sweet or watered down. Catch the sunset on the outdoor tables, and remember that you are on an island. Take it slow…
