Really wanted to try and it was good. Grilled on the spot, 2 sliders equal one burger so my hubby and I shared. Beautiful setting under the trees!

We heard good things about Le-Ma-Se and the host, Norman, so we stopped in for milkshakes. They were very good, and the pumpkin soup that Norman asked us to try was also excellent. It's a small place so don't miss this spot along the road as you leave Rincon.

We enjoyed this restaurant twice during our recent visit. Very nice atmosphere situated near the resort swimming pool. The restaurant is under roof but looks out onto the pool.
We had the 2 beef tenderloin dishes, barracuda and shrimp. The beef tenderloin was a huge serving for the $25 price, and was truly unique with bacon and its own sauce. The barracuda was awesome with its own unique sauce, also a good value. Reservations are recommended.
4. At Sea

Reviewed By Allen S - Windsor, Canada
This is the top rated real restaurant here in Bonaire. We arrived early when the place was almost empty The drinks menu has lots of interesting cocktails with local touches. They serve several different pre-starters that are delicious and complimentary. Our starters and mains were wonderful. I had the steak and shrimp.
By the time we were ready for dessert the place had filled up and there were not enough staff to deal with all of the customers. After waiting a long time for the dessert menu we just gave up and just got a check.
All of the servers were pleasant they were just overwhelmed. The owners just need to hire a few more players.

6. Between 2 Buns

Reviewed By Pamela H - Lawrenceville, Georgia, United States
I have been to Between to Buns several times for lunch and have always been impressed with their food. However, today was different. I did have a glass of the best Mint tea that I have ever tasted. I ordered a chicken salad Sandwich for lunch. It did not taste like chicken at all. It appeared to be made with all dark meat. If you are from the US and expecting white breast meat, grapes, nuts, celery, you will be greatly disappointed.

Best bar in town, drinks, cigars, good music, events, jam session, pop quiz, guilty pleasure night, vinyl night, live music; always something happening at Little Havana!
Reviewed By Jalama - Santa Barbara, California
This place is a real cool little bar. The inside is nice in dark woods. They have an extensive album collection on display that is awesome. We went in in the late afternoon for a couple beers. There was a young man DJ-ing who was killing it! We loved his vibe!! He was bringing some good mixes to the table. We are in our 50's & 60's and still dug him!! After he finished they put on some contemporary jazz that was nice as well.
The bartender was attentive but didn't offer any conversation accept to those who seemed to be locals. Some nights we noticed the place was packed with locals dancing outside and having a blast.
9. Capriccio
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 1 reviews
Reviewed By amcdegoede - Stratford, Wisconsin
I would say average Italian fare with good wine list and waterfront view is very nice. Our party ordered Linguini Alla Capesente, Ravioli Zucca, Osso Buco and Lasagna Di Carne. All dishes were tasty except the Lasagna which was dry and looked like leather. The service was less than desirable. We waited 45 minutes after being seated for someone to take our drink order and then the table had to deal with insults and eye-rolls from the wait staff when questions were asked about the wine list. It became a joke at our table in regards to how many times we could be insulted by the wait staff. You should be fine if you don't ask questions or expect quicker service.
10. Kite City
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 931 reviews
Kite City is the combination of a Food Truck, bean bags and great location, spiced by nice music, good service and tasty fresh food in a very casual package. We get the freshest fish locally and from Venezuela, shop daily for veggies meat and other products and from a food truck like to create some great nice comfort food. We just have to say, we do it with passion - we are not a Fast Food Truck - and reason we have chosen Bonaire and a beach side is exactly to increase that passion and satisfaction level. If you come to Bonaire to relax....Don't stress the chef here, instead...Let us surprise you and bring you down to our relaxation level. Check us on Facebook.

Take out for six was about $100 (without drinks) which is a bit pricey for lunch. However, the food was outstanding. Our group ordered a variety of items, covering beef burgers, fish burgers, wraps, and fresh seafood. Every person was delighted with their order. This was probably the best meal we had on the island!! We highly recommend Kite City and wished we'd had time to eat there a second time.
