    The food quality was amazing. We loved the tuna, octopus and short ribs. However, the service was so poor that we didn’t have the best overall experience. We ordered a round of drinks right before our meal arrived and they didn’t come until 15 minutes AFTER we finished our meal. We felt then the waitress forgot about us completely. We waited 45 minutes until a manager came over and said I see you all are empty and waiting, can I help you? We informed her we had been waiting 45 mins to even be asked if we needed anything else or a check. The manager took a few drinks off the bill and apologized but when the waitress returned to settle up she mentioned nothing and seemed annoyed. Would not expect this poor service from a restaurant that is supposedly one of the best in Aruba. Food was so good though we landed in the middle at 3 stars.

    We recently dined at Lima Bistro and had a mixed experience. The Tuna Tartare and scallops were delicious, with the scallops being a standout. Unfortunately, the main courses were disappointing. The Lamb Shank was served cold, and it took some time to receive it back. The Lomo Saltado was overly saucy, which detracted from the dish. This was the first time we felt the food didn’t meet Lima Bistro’s usual high standards. However, the Manager, who was unaware of the situation, was very kind, open to feedback, and sincerely apologetic. Her professionalism left a positive impression, and we’re looking forward to giving Lima Bistro another chance in the near future..

    The waitress, drinks and food were excellent. We ate inside this year. It was Christmas break with boisterous toddlers inside. September is more relaxing.
