Caribbean Food with lots of Soul man!!! Diane and Robert have to be two of the friendliest, most welcome and genuine people on Bonaire. They seem to love what they do and really provide a special atmosphere for diners and of course for the butterflies!!! More

This was a very nice place. It needs to grow more. It seems to be in the beginning of its development. I have been to Butterfly Farms throughout the world, and this one is rather small. But the owner is truly dedicated and is moving it along its growth. very nice place to have lunch. More

Wow Kishikishi for lunch is great! The butterfly farm is tranquil and lovely. Stop in for a bite to eat and the butterflies. Georgie has created a lovely oasis. More

After a few days of windsurfing and snorkeling we needed to take a break from the sun and headed for the Butterfly Garden. We had a delicious lunch of pumpkin soup, goat cheese and yam spring rolls, and pastecchis in the shaded, open-air KishiKishi Café, and then went on a wonderful tour through the gardens with Jordy, a college intern...

I had an unexpected encounter with a jellyfish, and the doctor suggested I stay out of water for a day. So we decided to visit the Butterfly Garden – it was a nice, relaxed visit (although a little bit pricey – between the 2 of us, with admission and lunch, we spent about $75). But the lunch we had there... More

I was a little skeptical about the admission price, but let me say, it was worth every penny. Spent a magical afternoon there including a delicious lunch at the KishiKishi Cafe. Georgie was helpful and informative, and didn't mind our asking him a zillion questions. Will definitely head back there for lunch, or maybe the Sunday Barbeque, next year. More

It is worth it to seek this spot out; what a beautiful, peaceful place! The owner was very kind and took a lot of time to tell us about all of the different types of butterflies in the garden. You can tell he takes great pride and care in what he does. This is a great spot to take young... More

A great way to spend the day while your dive equipment dries out. The owner provided a lot of information about the butterflies and the grounds. Plan to stay for lunch or a snack at the Kishi Kishi restaurant. The food was very good. More
