The Highlight of our Honeymoon

Sep 20, 2019 - posted by
My wife and I visited Aruba for our honeymoon, and Flying Fishbone was highly recommended by our friends who frequently visit the island. We greatly enjoyed every aspect of our trip, but our dinner at Flying Fishbone was easily the highlight. The ambiance, the amazing food, and the wonderful service were even better than our friends described. Our server, Hylton, was fantastic...make sure you request him!

So amazing and beautiful! We had 8pm reservations with a note to sit in the water if available.. and guess what!? It was! So nice and different to have the water hit your feet! The food was outrageous and portions were a pretty decent size!! I had the special .. a unicorn fish! Tasty, grilled and just just the right amount of salty! Will absolutely return each time I visit Aruba! PS. Julian was our server and he is was as cute as a button and just a doll! He also seconds as the best photographer ever! Thanks Flying Fishbone and Julian for a great evening all around!

Best place to dine with your feet in the water and watch a beautiful sunset! Mike was our server and was very enthusiastic & pleasant. Had a reservation and walked in and was seated immediately. Definitely a highlight to our trip. We will include this every time we visit Aruba!

Best dining experience I’ve ever had

May 5, 2019 - posted by
My girlfriend and I dined here last night on one of our last nights in Aruba. The whole experience was beyond great. We made our reservation for a table in the sand and the view was absolutely breathtaking. Our server Julian was the man! Being a server myself, he was far and away the best server we had during our time here on the island. Very laid back and personable and has great sense of pace for the dining experience. He recommended the Catch of The Day (Red Snapper) and it was straight fire. The chocolate brownie with mousse and pistachio ice cream to top it off was perfect. The plating was something very special. This will be a go to spot for us whenever we return.

A special thank you to Julian and the staff at The Flying Fishbone! 🤙🏻

Could not have been better!

Hilton our waiter was the best. Thank you so much for all your recommendations. We could not have had a better night. The food was great also. Tuna tataki and Peruvian Ceviche started us out right. Wow! Sabanete Seafood History and special Unicorn fish with mussels and shrimp over potatoes. Were both awesome. Really exceptional. Thank you for a memorable night!

Awesome Dining Experience

Jan 7, 2019 - posted by
Our annual trip to Aruba would not be complete without a dinner at Flying Fishbone. Each year, the experience is superb. Nothing can beat the ambiance. of choosing (in advance) to dine either on the beach with feet planted in the sand or in the Caribbean Sea (where your table is seated in the shallow end of the water. Food selections are plentiful and prepared to our finicky liking. The service is superb. Our server, HYLTON, repeatedly came by to ask us if everything was alright and if we needed anything else. The hostess did the same. At the end of the meal, HYLTON actually came by to shake our hands and reminded us about the foot wash station before we placed our sandals /flip flops back on. Oh yes, there is a table side customized stand that not only houses your ice bucket with your wine selection but, is able to “House” your footwear while you are dining.

Worth a second visit

Dec 1, 2018 - posted by
My wife and I spent the last three nights of our vacation in Savaneta. The Flying Fishbone was close so we gave it a try our first night. Upon arrival we were greeted and made to feel welcome. While we didn't sit at on of the water tables, we had a nice table where we could enjoy our cocktails and a nice dinner as the sun set on the sea. The catch of day was Red Snapper and it was delicious. My wife opted for the lobster bisque with a salad and was not disappointed. Romel, our waiter did a great job.

It was the last night of our vacation and we went back and were seated at a wonderful table, still in the sand, that made for a memorable meal and sunset. We were lucky enough to have Romel again to make our evening enjoyable. The Red Snapper was as good as the first visit. Overall, a great two experiences.

Excellent Experience

Nov 1, 2018 - posted by
This place is amazing! While my family and I didn’t sit in the water, our table was just up from that area sort of by itself with an unobstructive view of the water and sky. It was a lovely spot. I felt special! From the time we arrived the service was exceptional. Everyone seemed to have perfect timing. All were hospitable, friendly and professional. They all truly cater to the diner. Hilton, our server, is possibly one the best I have ever met. Totally professional yet friendly. Made the experience all about us! I had the tenderloin which was prepared as requested. Everyone else ordered fish and shrimp and all enjoyed and said it was excellent. Two of my dining companions ordered cocktails and said they were great and not watered down which is something we have noticed at various bars. I highly recommend this place and will be back when I visit again and should that never happen, I will always remember this place!!
