Dining in Aruba is not cheap! Were were surprised on how expensive the dining really was, and even for breakfast. This is one of the exceptions where we could have breakfast for under $10/person. Matthew's is located on the beach and within walking distance of any resort in the Palm Beach area. Try the Mexican Breakfast, but be careful of... more

We hit Mathews early evening on a couple occasions while in Aruba for a week. This is a wonderful spot for atmosphere (right on the beach), fun hosts (Jorge is the BEST) and a yummy snack. The bar is pool side and beach side - that a 10, and add in the amazing bartenders, happy hour and sunset and this... more

Try the chicken kebops, huge and tasty. My wife had pasta vongole another great dish. If you order soft drinks the price is right. Direct oceanfront - ambience galore and watch the sunset. 4 to 6 happy hour, two for one drinks. Many people there feel this is the best afternoon bar in Aruba. Today, they are hosting a beach... more

Hello Richardo, Jorge, William(Alice) :); and the rest of the staff! This was our first trip to Aruba, and Matthew\'s was the ONLY restaurant we went to while we were there! The staff was fun, and welcoming no matter the hour of our arrival. We all had a great time, and would highly recommend your restaurant to anyone headed to... more

Our 3rd time in Aruba. Hadn't been to Matthew's before... our loss! Went twice on week of 10.24.09. Excellent decision! Service and atmosphere are great. Food was excellent: veal sweetbreads are fantastic; pina colada shrimp, ribs, and the chicken kabob are awesome... we rarely order chicken in restaurants, but the kabob was a huge hit... could have fed us both... more

We went for breakfast and it was really great. I got the Aruban breakfast and I would have it again and again. They are also a great bang for your buck! You are also able to sit and watch the ocean in perfect view. A nice plus more

We had the opportunity to dine here on the last day of our week long vacation, we had a late lunch and wandered into Matthew's. We were one of two couples in the restaurant and just wanted something light to tide us over until our big dinner that evening... Matthew's has a delicious B.L.A.T. sandwich that was filling and tasty!... more

We enjoyed breakfast and dinner at Matthew's. Dinner was a little on the pricey side but breakfast was good, plentiful, and a good value. Matthew's also has a good bar scene with plenty of happy hour specials. more
