Madame Janette

Address: Cunucu Abao 37, Aruba  | 
The kitchen staff prides itself on preparing most of the dishes a la minute and it features a specials menu. Steaks, grilled meats from the rotisserie, salmon and sole as well as local fish like mahi mahi and grouper, fresh pasta and a wide choice of appetizers are some of the choices you'll find at Madame Janette's.

Madame Janette was founded April 2, 1999 by Ramon Helgers and Karsten Gesing. Their collaboration resulted in a place which offers fine dining in a casual atmosphere. Ramon is responsible for the exotic fruits, herbs and vegetables you will find in not only our dishes but also in most supermarkets on Aruba. Karsten, a European Master Chef trained in 'old school' traditions creates, with help from his knowledgeable, international oriented staff, tasteful and creative dishes. Their combined worldwide experience give their dishes an original flavor with a touch of Caribbean in them. We call it the Madame Janette experience!

Although the restaurant service and food were both excellent the restaurant itself was much too hot - not enough air conditioning and therefore the dining experience was unpleasant. Both my friend and I couldn't wait to get out of there, especially when you have been out in the sun all day.

My daughters and I love Madame Janette's and recommend it to all our friends. There is nothing lacking - great food, atmosphere, wait staff, ambience. We wish it was in New Jersey so we could enjoy it more than once a year.

We go to Aruba every year and Madame Janette's is one of my favorite restaurant on the island. My husband wasn't happy last summer as the flies were bothering him while he was eating.

As always, Madame Jeanette's is the best meal we have when we visit Aruba. WE have been coming down for 8 years now. Huge and delicious portions! We can't wait to go back next year.

First time in Aruba and it rained, I had heard it never rains there. Just my luck! The highlight of my visit was Madame Janette's, great food, service and atmosphere. Beware! the portions are very large, enough for sharing on some items great things don't always come in "small" packages.

I have been to Aruba 6 times so far and always make it a point to visit our favorite place to dine :) Madame's is always the best and the onion/vineger combo to dip your bread is heavenly! You will never have a bad meal there!
