My husband and I dined at The Wine Cellar last week. We were quite impressed with the quality of the food and the overall dining experience. In fact, we returned for a second time during our stay and would highly recommend. The service was excellent and a refreshing change from the poor service we received at several of the other... More

We had some initial apprehensions after showing up when we found out a group of 30 was soon to arrive and feared the service would suffer, but the staff at the Wine Cellar happily proved us wrong. We were seated by the owner and promptly served water. The wine list was impressive and they even were willing to serve glasses... More

Tried it for the first time in March 2011 and can't wait to go back this year at least twice. A family business with outstanding food. Some may consider it a bit pricey but if you are from a big cityyou won' be shocked and the food and wine is definitely worth every penny. More

Last week 6 of us went to The Wine Cellar for dinner. We had been in 2010 on a trip to Curacao and knew that when we were returning to this Island we would have to return to this amazing restaurant. The food, wine, service is above any restaurant I have been to even here in Montreal. If you want... More

Our group of 10 was greeted warmly by Nico the owner and his two sons. The restaurant is cozy with an interior area and an atrium. The walls are covered in interesting artwork, many of the pieces being originals. The menu offered so many choices it was hard to decide, but one of our servers really encouraged me to have... More

First of all, it is a family run business. A father and 2 sons. They are 2 nice young men. The father came to our table said hello. It is quaint, warm, and welcoming. The various art on the walls was awesome. The service was impeccable. The food was perfect, from the presentation, to the pleasing of the palate. 2... More

The food was exceptional. The owners greet you personally and provide a welcoming and enjoyable atmosphere. Even though we only had 2 glasses of wine, the owner went out of his way to pick an exceptional wine and even gave us the label off of the bottle so we can purchase it at home. Our family had the steak and... More

We had a large group there last week and we were all impressed. The meals were all oustanding. The service is good as well, we kept the boys hopping. It is located in a small building that may seat 25 or 30 max. A must visit! More

Definitely top choice for THE place to dine in Curacao. We had a rental car, but they do offer to pick you up at your hotel. Menu is awesome! We ate here three times during the ten days we visited Curacao. Portions are more than adequate, but you really should save some room for dessert! Staff is very well trained... More

Shame on you pragerfse for putting this place down! Ignore his/her comments! Not sure what you could have found wrong with this place! I guess some people cannot be pleased! The food is top notch, and the service is beyond anything you would expect. Picked us up at our hotel and dropped us off after eating. They take a lot... More
