we made reservations at Infini restaurant, lucky to get reservations the following evening, not realizing it was a 12 course meal with limited seating...it was worth every cent!! the atmosphere was fantastic, the chef's were meticulous and paid such attention to detail, the maitre de was beyond professional and attentive. everyone was informative and the food was just the best I've ever tasted!!! a true Aruba experience!!!

We had the pleasure of dining here for our 25th anniversary. This also marked our 25th year visiting Aruba and we can safely proclaim, in our humble opinion, that this is the best restaurant we have tried on the island. We were truly impressed by the quality and taste of the food as well as the friendliness and competency of the team.
It’s saying something that we were impressed as we have lived in the foodie havens of NYC and London and have tried some of the best restaurants on the planet.
It’s apparent that most of the 12 dishes take a lot of advance prep - indeed, some of the ingredients have taken days to months to absorb flavours via marinades or maceration. The menu is divided neatly into 3 snacks, 3 appetisers, 3 mains and 3 desserts along with an option for wine pairing.
During the dining experience itself, we are then treated to the theatre of the kitchen team assembling the elements of the dish with painstaking architectural precision. Some of the dishes can have a rather large number of elements and therefore risk some elements being superfluous. Not so here. Indeed, more is more at Infini. Every element had a role to play, whether providing textural contrast, dialling up the umami on the mains or complementing the flavours of the main ingredient in quite innovative ways.
Would highly recommend booking in advance as seating is limited to 18 diners per evening.

After having dined at other Chef’s tables in Aruba we heard great things about Infini. Jess was very accommodating and had a last minute cancellation so we got in. The presentation, creativity and taste was spectacular. The reason for 4 stars not 5 was I just wish they plated a little more than bite size courses. 2 entrees served was 1 slice of jerk chicken followed by two thin slices of steak. Both executed perfectly, but definitely not entree worthy.
It was nice to try something different, however, we prefer socializing and interacting with chef, host/hostess and guests. This venue lacked the quaintness and guest interaction. It was more watching the chefs perform and present dishes of art. I guess everyone has their opinion. Food excellent just not my type of atmosphere.

Your comments are important to us as they provide us with suggestions and ideas on how to make the dining experience even better for all of our guests. With Infini meaning “limitless possibilities”, we always aim to create dishes that are made without boundaries, exploring new possibilities and stepping with two feet outside the box, which is why our menu changes every few months. We hope that you will consider visiting us again in the future and try a different menu, should your travels bring you back to Aruba.

The food was amazing. I have been to maybe 20 chefs table style dinners and this was so boring. Usually the host gets everyone excited and introduces everyone to each other. We had dinner at Kitchen Table the night before and it was just like that. This environment was stale. You start by sitting outside on the patio surrounded by iguana poop, I think, so the flies ate you alive. That was a bad start. Then they took us in one couple at a time and spaced us apart. We are facing the chefs as they prepare the food and they don’t say a word. They prepare each course and someone different delivers it to each of us, at the same time, and they all start talking, at the same time, so we had no idea what they were saying was in the dish. The head chef, except when he delivered the food to a group, would tell you what it was, but same boat couldn’t hear. How about stand back and one person announce the dish to all. I enjoy getting to know each chefs culinary journey but nothing. How about why they paired the flavors and or best way to eat. Nothing! Really sad. Then the “manager” when we got the bill said that the 15% service charge was not a tip but an “education fee”, not sure what that is, since we have yet to see another restaurant with an education service charge. As mentioned above food was amazing, but if you are looking for a real chefs table experience that is interactive and fun, this is not your choice, especially for the price. If you want a bunch of plates of amazing food delivered to you, with a brief description, then it is perfect.

This is difficult because I desperately wanted to love this place and rave about it but I can’t. There were indeed high points: ambiance was wonderful and location easy to find within the Blue residences on Eagle Beach. Staff very friendly. Food was definitely photo worthy works of art. That said, we have been to many of these chef table concept experiences and this left us wanting and sometimes wondering.... If I am honest, everything here is about the sauces, mousses, toppings....it just gets to be too much. You don’t watch any actual cooking occur but rather a group of sous chefs around plates covering everything with layers upon layers of the sauces/whips/ mousses to the point that anything hot will be stone cold by time you eat it. There are 8 courses but they are incredibly small courses with a steep price tag of $140pp (without wine pairing) Keep in mind—I am a fairly petite 130 lb female and I was not full. Because of each dish prep- there was limited staff interaction with diners and none of the banter that creates an entertaining experience or draws the guests together into feeling like they are at a dinner party. Don’t get me wrong: some of the tastes were ingenious and some just didn’t work for me (cubes of truffle Parmesan cheese in the ice cream dessert). They make a big deal about the local sourdough bread baked by a former biology teacher but then they grill it so the flavor and texture is so altered- it can’t be truly appreciated for the good bread it probably is. I wish them success but our experience paled in comparison to Carte Blanche or even Fred’s—

My husband and I are foodies and we love our wine. We travel extensively so have had food/wine experiences all over the world. We've done a number of these food experiences here in Aruba where you are seated with a limited number of people with a set menu and we've always enjoyed the experience. Unfortunately, this experience did not live up to the wonderful food, wine and camaraderie that we've come to expect. You start by sitting outside at a beautiful outdoor setting. At that time you are asked if you'd like the standard wine accompaniment package, the cocktail package or perhaps you'd enjoy the upgraded wine package. Be careful here. Upgraded does not mean the same thing to them as it might to you. That extra $220 would be well spent on a diving experience, a couple of hats to bring home for your friends or perhaps another dinner out. It is NOT well spent on the wine upgrade. The wines were standard at best. The food was ok but each plate is a bite and nothing more. You never get a plate of food to enjoy. I wouldn't go so far as to say you left hungry but it took 3-1/2 hours total and we had maybe 10 "bites".
Most important to note about this particular establishment is the lack of introduction to the staff and fellow dining partners. Usually at this style of dining, the chef will introduce himself and tell you a little about how he came to be there. They will then introduce their staff. After that, they'll ask each person to tell their name and where they traveled from. We've always made friends at these dinners and have had great conversations with the people we've dined with. None of that happened and I was greatly disappointed. We expect great food and wine (this was good not great) but when we book this type of dinner we absolutely LOVE the conversations between the staff, our fellow diners and ourselves. That absolutely did NOT happen here. THIS was my greatest disappointment and the reason I cannot give them 5 stars. Average is NOT ok for almost $400/person.

2nd time we’ve had the pleasure to spend our evening @ Infini. Both times we were with a big group. All fans of people who cook with passion, who are humble, friendly, fun to be with and of course surprise their customers with unthinkable, overwhelming tastes and parings. The team of Infini are like a big family, whoom are proud on their own restaurant, country and people. They have a facinating story to tell how they started, travelled the world and joined eachother again @ Infini. Each dish is an amazing experience and gives you an feeling of enormous joy! Also the parings are suprising and complementing the dish. Thank you very much sincere people of Infini! Keep doing what your doing! See you soon

From the moment we were welcomed by Jess with a glass of champagne to the last bite of the cookie we had on our way to the airport the next morning, it is clear that Infini pays close attention to the small details that matter -- not just with their culinary techniques, but with how they present themselves, how they interact with their customers and each other, how the wine and cocktails are selected, and on and on...
The Carribean seasonal menu was creative, aesthetically beautiful, and delicious. Every bite, albeit small in size, absolutely exploded with flavors that complimented each other perfectly. What may be perceived lacking in size was more than made up for with intensity!
We loved how the chefs took the time to explain some of the local ingredients and techniques to us. When we asked questions, they were genuinely happy to provide us with answers.
All in all, the entire group takes pride in their work... and we were the beneficiaries! If we ever end up in Aruba again (which I hope we do!), this is the first place I'm booking.

The dining experience in Infini was definitely a great one!
Very nice ambience and decoration, with a cosy and modern vibe.
Service was very good, with an attentive team, very professional and knowledgeable about the menu and wines.
Food was of a very high level (definitely a TOP level for the Aruban restaurant market and offering) with 8 courses that, even if not all of them where amazing, in global it created an attractive and enjoyable experience.
Would definitely recommend it for customers that are looking for this type of "author tasting menu" experiences.

Tucked in front of the Blue Condominiums is Infini, but Urvin Croes. It looks unassuming on the outside but the inside is full of excellence.
Meeting at 6:30 and being given a glass of champagne while you watch the sunset is a fantastic start. Once inside, all 12 diners (six couple) begin the multi-course tasting menu at the same time. The menu is the menu - come prepared to be adventurous.
We chose the wine pairings along with the food.
The courses arrived and disappeared over a 2.5 hour dinner experience. Each course was explained. The setting is everyone seated around a large kitchen counter used to plate each course. The meal mostly consists of plating and assembling. Much of the food is prepared prior.
The menu rotates seasonally - new one due soon and we’re excited to visit again when we arrive in Aruba again in June. The highlights of this menu include their riff on Tuna (three ways), Wahoo (insane with beets), Scallops (the pumpkin worked great), Mussels & Crab (a lot going on in there!), Salmon (three ways again), Turbot, Cheese (how did they do that???) and an Asian Mimosa (already full!).
Brilliance. Genius.
Where does this kind of talent come from? How does it get on the island? Many of this staff worked in Michelin starred restaurants (Daalder in particular) in Amsterdam. You can read many of my reviews of the amazing and underrated food city of Amsterdam, including Daalder.
This is not just great food. This is about a dining experience that leaves you wowed. The space is amazing; dimly lit. Service is choreographed. Food is the star. The restaurant is spotless when you arrive, and spotless when you leave. Each of the staff of seven is doing something constantly.
Prepare yourself for Michelin level greatness.

Have had my fair share of fine dining experiences including chefs’ tables in Las Vegas and Chicago, so I was excited for Infini and cautiously optimistic after reading the other Trip Advisor reviews, though I wondered if the review declaring the restaurant Michelin worthy was an exaggeration. It was not. Chef Croes completely exceeded my expectations. Each of the 8 courses displays depth and creativity. Our experience here will be a highlight of our honeymoon.
Since I am a vegetarian, the meat and fish components of some dishes were swapped out with vegetarian substitutes, but I had the same menu as all of the other guests. And I greatly appreciated the small substitutions instead of wholesale swaps sticking me with a boring risotto or other typical vegetarian alternative. My husband, who had the regular menu, agreed my vegetarian dishes were delicious.

We love the imaginative approach Chef Croes takes with his menu. Each month a new menu is beautifully crafted and executed. Eight or so courses weave their way through the evening bringing harmony and unexpected joy of classic dishes reborn with gusto. Each course is introduced by waitstaff with exacting descriptions of ingredients, plating, and the backstory of its origin. Surprises are introduced where ingredients which are seemingly in conflict with each other resolve into a beautifully balanced bite. Infini will be on our short list of restaurants we return to for our annual trek to Aruba. BTW…if you’re a foodie bring a camera as each dish is as gorgeous as the last!

Beautiful and delicious food and exceptional staff made this dinner one of the best we have ever had. The food was beautifully presented by the very talented and friendly staff. The wine and cocktail pairings were creative and well matched to the food. The attention to detail was top-notch. We really appreciated the personal attention and detailed explanation of each course and wine/cocktail paring. It was much more than just a dinner- more a flawless performance.

The chefs present you with an 8 course gastronomic dinner. They explain the rationale and way of preparing the different dishes and welcome all questions you might have for them. They also offer a wine accompaniment that is specifically for the different dishes. All in all an extremely satisfying evening with superb food, wines and service!

Being well traveled, we never thought that such an amazing foodie and culinary experience would be here on a tropical Island. You usually experience semi par Resort food and most restaurants leave you wanting for something more………
Chef Urvin and his crew at Infini Aruba are top notch, pushing the bar at every twist and turn opening up your culinary mindset with fresh and local ingredients combining new gastronomical techniques but never too pretentious.
Chef Ashwin Maduro and Maître D’ Jessika Theysen really know how to make you feel at home and lead their team by example which shows as their passion for food, customer service, and absolute breath taking guest experience shines through the process start to finish and leaves you satisfied but wanting to come back the next day for more :)
A couple of tips:
Get there at 615-630
Get the cocktail and wine pairing
Get Reservations in advance
Tip well :)
Talk to the staff. They love what they do and are very friendly
