Went into Oranjestad for the say to sightsee and ended up eating dinner here. Turned out to be a great meal! They were not very busy so we had a nice table by the window that overlooks the harbor. Our server was a really friendly guy who made good recommendations. The steak was cooked properly and tasted great. Was a... More

We visited this restaurant upon recommendation and were not disappointed! We had a fabulous waiter who was very good at what he does. We both had steak and both were delicious! Nothing bad to say! Would go back here!

We hit LG's every time we are in a Aruba and it didn't disappoint once again!!! The early bird special is a great deal and the meal was even better. Service was great, we overlooked the busy LG Smith Boulevard once again and watched the people stroll by and bumper to bumper traffic creep. App, Entree, Desert for 2 all... More

I saw the special "Couples Massage and Dinner" offer at the hotel. We made a reservation for the night before we were to leave for home. There was a slight mix up with our time as a group of previous people from another hotel had been late. But they were gracious and gave us a discount and re-made our dinner... More

My 2nd time to LG:s and I was a little bit disappointed. Visited the Steak house five years ago and the food was a lot tastier back then as I remember. The main reason why I rate this as average is simply because the the Steak was the only thing that held a Very good rating meanwhile starter, dessert and... More

Had a great meal with these folks. Our server, Andrey was excellent. The meal was prepared as requested and the steak melted in our mouths. The wine list was extensive. We expected the sides to be family style but the were on our plates. My wife was pleased with this do that we could both have the sides that we... More

Per their menu: "LG Smith's serves certified Angus Beef Steaks, a cut above USDA Choice and Prime. Less than 8% of beef is [as good as ours]". This is flagrantly false. Angus is a type of cattle - it is not a USDA grading scale such as Choice and Prime. Further, less than 2% of USDA beef is graded as... More

My husband and I traveled as part of the All-Inclusive Package at the Renaissance Resort where this restaurant is situated. The restaurant staff and management seemed to enjoy making us feel like second-class, undesirable clients... ruined our evening. And the food quality was terrible. I received FROZEN carpaccio and an extremely thin rib-steak (approx 4mm) riddled with gristle, rather than... More

Great restaurant with great atmosphere. The food was good and i compare it to a "Keg" type steak house. They have other choices as well if you dont want to do the steak thing. Definately sit in Geordino and Joselyn area, and you will see why they call it the "happy Island".
