The owner's son greeted us as soon as we sat down and asked us what we were in the mood for. After a few seconds we were overwhelmed by his enthusiasm and let him take over our dinner choices for the evening. We were served a spectacular 3-4 course meal at a very reasonable price. One of the best dining... More

Ideal restaurant. Service was quick and efficient but not rushed. The food presentation was inviting and EVERYTHING tasted so good. We went during restaurant week so we tried what was on the special menu. Reservations we honored and we didn't have to wait for the table or to be served. We even got driven back to our hotel by very... More

It was Curacao restaurant week and The Wine Cellar was one of the participating restaurants. I had not been there for two years and we wanted to give it a try. We were surprised by the high quality. We really liked it and I will certainly return to this nice place!

My husband and I wanted to celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary with a nice dinner. This restaurant was #1 on Tripadvisor. It is a small and quaint building that was easy to drive to. We started with stuffed mushrooms which were delicious!! My husband thought these were the best stuffed mushrooms he ever ate. We both had the fish which... More

Plan on spending more than you would at most places on the island. But you won't be disappointed. We had the mutton rack and the grand marnier duck. Both were very good. We also enjoyed the walnut pie dessert. Unlike most other desserts we had on the island, this one was homemade and very good. Would go back if we... More

A dinner at this restaurant is always a tasty and elegant experience. Special requests are always taken care of by the friendly staff. The food is delicious , at times a bit too creamy, but overall excellent especially if paired with their fantastic wines!! The ambiance is wonderful , the location perfect. A classic choice that never fails!!

We got there rather early , at 7:00 and most of the tables were unoccuppied so we were a little afraid but our fears proved unfounded. The food has been beyond reproach. We tried the lobster bisque, the tuna tartare, the duck brest, the young mutton, the dover sole, the crepsuzettes All delicious . A well balanced wine list out... More

On our last night of a 6 day trip to Curacao, we decided to go to one of the hotel recommendations for the finest restaurant in Curacao. The restaurant is quaint and service was impeccable. The food was outstanding. What put it over the top for us, was the offer from the owner to provide a ride back to the... More
