Best International food near Curacao, Caribbean

May 28, 2020 Trinity Boughner

Find out what International restaurants to try in Curacao. Serious divers have long flocked to Curacao. Whether you’re looking for a challenging wall dive or a shallow snorkeling spot, you’ll find it here. Beaches, of course, are another big draw. With sugar-fine sand and calm waters, they’re perfect for kids. And make sure to explore Willemstad, Curacao’s capital city. Its charming pastel buildings and equally colorful history earned it recognition as a UNESCO World Heritage City.

Located in the historical district of Pietermaai, Kome features a chef driven menu where worldly cooking techniques lay the foundation for the creative freedom Chef David and Pastry Chef Susan live for in the kitchen. The chefs love cooking things that ma

Our dinner at Kome was delicious. We had a (huge) Ceasar’s salad and the Merguez (goat) sausages as starters and the Pork tenderloin and the pasta as a main. All equally delicious. The ambiance was lively with tables closely spaced together. Luckily our neighbors were very friendly.One point that needs to be improved is the table water. We ordered a bottle of flat and a bottle of sparkling mineral water. However, we were served refilled bottles of purified water. At 9 guilders (about $5) per bottle this is quite outrageous. Moreover, at we noticed that ‘tap’ water for the table next to us, came from the same faucet. The small print on the menu indeed says that Kome chooses to serve filtered water instead of mineral water. This is fine with us, but should then be more clearly stated as you usually order drinks ahead of examining the menu in great detail.Nevertheless, quality of the food comes first and there for a ‘very good rating’ anyway.Dear Dutch_Travel-R,Thank you for the great review, we're happy to hear you had a great night. To quickly reply to the table water, we indeed serve filtered water. Sometimes, when the bar is busy we decide for efficiency's sake to grab the nearest faucet. We feel a 5$ charge for water which is similar to any branded water is a fair price, however, you should not have been charged both the still and sparkling water, that one unfortunately slipped through the cracks. Next time you visit us, please let me know personally and I'll make sure to make it right.Regards,Luuk

A gorgeous setting high on the hill above Santa Martha Bay. Lovely place to enjoy the sunset and evening breezes. If winds are not sufficient, insects may be a problem in the open air. The menu has a very nice selection of seafood and meats. The appetizers are fairly large plates, in fact 2 or 3 of them would be adequate for a meal. Excellent fresh seafood, particularly catch of the day.

Nice restaurant with a menu focused on small plates. Food presentation was nice but wait staff was a little pretentious. My husband and I shared 3 plates and found that to be sufficient. The pardon peppers were especially good as was the piranha. This is a covered but open air restaurant with free parking available on the street.

Yes, this place is actually in a former church, though if you go on a quieter night, you'll probably be seated on the patio, as it's a bit cooler. The prices are probably the highest in Curaçao, but that's because the food is so thoughtfully curated. Fresh ingredients, packed with flavor. My personal favorite was the crème brûlée ravioli. Never experienced anything like that before! Service is leisurely, so order a bottle of wine.

We are moving to the other side of the road. You'll find us at the entrance to the National Park at Cactus Cafe. Opening Hours: 10am-3pm (kitchen opens at 11 am till 2 pm) and 5pm - 10pm (kitchen closes at 9pm)

The cactus cafe (its new name) is a lovely restaurant in Cristoffel Park. The family needed to grab an early dinner so we were the only ones in the restaurant at 6pm. The service and food was excellent. They were also patient when I asked repeatedly if there were nuts in my 15yo son's meal. (Side note, yes my kid says I was being too much of a "mom", but he doesn't remember the last trip when I had to take him to an ER and it was in a foreign country).

We had a very bad experience in this restaurant. Nowhere was mentioned they would charge an extra 10% on the total amount for service. It's normally up to the customer to decide whether he/she wants to tip for service. All the restaurants we've been to in Curacao work like this, just as they do elsewhere. Obliging people to tip your staff is absolutely NOT DONE. In this restaurant however, when we got our bill, we were obliged to pay a arbitrary tip of 10%. This was not mentioned in the menu and not communicated in advance and could thus not be charged. When taking this up with the staff, they claimed this decision was not theirs to make, but the manager's. Of course, conveniently, this person wasn't present and neither reachable by text or call. I offered to get the police or any other authority involved to solve this as the restaurant wasn't capable of offering a solution. This, obviously wasn't to their liking as they knew they were in their wrong. We ended up paying the unjustified extra amount as they didn't let us leave by paying the correct amount. Overall, I am very very disappointed in this establishment and I would recommend any fellow traveller to avoid going here to be treated this way. To be clear, the amount was not big, but just the way we've been treated is a disgrace. This is completely unlike any other experience we've had on the island and something nobody should experience on their holidays.There are many restaurants in Curacao charging 10% or even 15% . I will mention 5 Nautilus (15%), Matsuri (10%) , Shore (15%), Kyoto (10%) St Tropez (10%) these restaurants are among the best. I was informed that you found the food delicious and the service excellent. But it all turned around when you saw the check. It is sad that you could not find it in your heart to reward our employee's hard work. Instead you did a disfavor to all of them by your unsubstantiated review. It seems it is you who put your country to shame by representing them in such a cheap manner.

Greatest view. A pity they don't clean up the place. I was feeling great and the food was fine until I saw the way they keep their goats. No water at all in this heat and no plants to even get somehow a bit of water. And a beautiful Warawara bird in a dirty cage without a drop of water who should be right there flying around in the nature which is exactly where they are located.Hi , U can not put a private property in a review. The goats have nothing 2 do with our restaurant! The bird is in good condition like always! We give him good and water and i take time to even talk with him every day! Ur review is not based on facts. Well the only fact is that u eat good. Thanks u! For ur time to make picture about the goats. And not the good food and service.Gito

Reviewed By JeffE596

Our favorite restaurant on Curaçao because it is simply the best for fine dining! Elegant ambience, white linen, silverware, properly set tables, original artworks, and fresh cut flowers. Family operated for 30+ years by Nico, a Master Rotisseur of the Chaine de Rotisseurs, and now his three sons and a staff of professional servers who have been with them for years; you will meet them all as they provide their impeccable service. Superb classical French cooking...not the latest trend of the month...good solid time-proven recipes, prepared deliciously using the finest available ingredients. Give it a try; you won't be disappointed.
