About the restaurant
With Infini meaning “Limitless Possibilities”, Chef Urvin Croes wants to offer dishes made without boundaries, exploring new possibilities and stepping with two feet outside the box. A chef’s table concept where diners and staff are able to interact throughout the evening, channeling through a story guided by the menu.

Urvin has worked in different roles starting as an apprentice cook and ending as a Chef de Partie and Sous-Chef for the highest-rated hotel restaurants on the island of Aruba. He gained experience in Europe working with 1-Michelin star rated “Grand Hotel Karel V”.

He enjoys buying many of his ingredients from local farmers. It is a combination of all the aforementioned, which is reflected in the dishes created at Chef Urvin his restaurants. He has many accomplishments, which aside from his culinary degrees also include several medals and he is locally famous for being the first winner of ‘Iron Chef Aruba’.

Grant us the honor of fulfilling your culinary desires.

On our last night of staying in Aruba, we decided to try this place… we loved it! When we arrived, we were placed by an outdoor table, probably because they had live singer performing, but asked to be seated inside. This restaurant is on the intimate side and most of the seating for dinner is outside in front of the hotel which is by the parking lot. For us, inside was perfect—Quiet & relaxed. We could still hear the singer. The two drinks I got were well crafted. The food was really good and so far it’s been the highest quality of dining that we’ve had on the island. We tried their escargot, onion soup, porcini risotto, linguine pasta with shrimp and lobster, and tiramisu all of which were great. Big shoutout to Andres who tended to us frequently and gave great food and drink recommendations. And to the owner who went to each table and spoke to everyone who dined that evening. Overall we were very pleased with the meal and service. We will definitely come back.
