Curaçao offers an incredible range, from traditional Caribbean dishes to international cuisine. Whether you’re looking for a romantic dinner with a sea view, a cozy bistro, or a shared meal on the beach, Curaçao has it all. Here are our favorites for 2025 (which, of course, we’ve carefully tested with our team).
The area around Blue Bay and Piscadera.
- De Visserij
An absolute must-try! The fish comes directly from the local fishing boats – it doesn’t get fresher than that! Additionally, the relaxed atmosphere adds to an even more enjoyable experience. - Pirate Bay
At Pirate Bay, you can enjoy a diverse international menu. Whether you’re having breakfast, lunch, or dinner with your feet in the sand, Pirate Bay offers more than just delicious food and drinks – it creates unforgettable moments. - Brass boer
This restaurant was founded by the owners of the famous 3-star restaurant De Librije in Zwolle, so here you can enjoy top-tier culinary dishes with a Caribbean twist.
The area around Jan Thiel.
- Brisa Do Mar (pop’s place)
Located at Caracas Bay, Brisa Do Mar still offers a mix of Caribbean atmosphere, local dishes, and a stunning sea view. - Zanzibar Beach & Restaurant
Ideaal voor een avondje pizza, direct uit de steenoven terwijl je heerlijk met de voeten in het zand staat. (Zaterdag 17:00 begint hier happy hour om te genieten van een heerlijke mocktail/cocktail) - De visboer
New on our list! For true lovers of freshly caught fish, De Visboer at Jan Thiel is perfect. Here, you’ll find daily fresh catches like tuna, mahi-mahi, and barracuda. - Brakkeput Mei Mei
Brakkeput Mei Mei remains beloved due to the romantic atmosphere of a historic mansion.
In addition to the restaurant, there is a playground and a mini-golf course, making it ideal for families with children. Enjoy the fish and meat specialties from the charcoal grill. The delicious salads from the famous salad bar are included with your main course.

Area around Willemstad (Punda & Otrobanda)
- Bij Blauw
In the Pietermaai district, Bij Blauw will keep surprising you with its cuisine. Dishes are made from fresh local products, so the menu may vary. - Kome
A new favorite! Kome combines American dishes with Caribbean influences and offers fresh options, from salads and sandwiches for lunch to grilled meats, fresh seafood, and vegetarian dishes. - De Gouverneur
A landmark in Curaçao! With a beautiful view of the Sint Anna Bay and Handelskade. Our tip: reserve early so you can book a table on the balcony. - Plein Café Wilhelmina
Popular due to its central location and a changing daily menu for less than 20 ANG. In addition, Plein Café offers a delicious selection of various beers.
Area around Westpunt
- Sol Food
Sol Food is a small family restaurant in a family’s garden, which is why it’s only open on weekends until 8 PM. On the menu, you’ll find what they call simple American dishes. - Jaanchies
The oldest restaurant in Curaçao. Still the place for an authentic local lunch. Be surprised by the original menu, and perhaps you’ll be open to trying our traditional iguana stew. - Karakter (Coral Estate)
Here, you can relax all day and end with a delicious dinner. Enjoy a diverse menu while witnessing a unique sunset. - Playa beach club
New on our list and new to curacao! This beach club combines great food/drink with a fantastic location at Playa Kalki.
