My wife and I just returned from the Wine Cellar. We had a 7:00 PM reservation (made by E-mail last evening), but when we arrived early we were immediately seated. Though unassuming both inside and out, the food was fabulous and was matched by the atmosphere and service. I had the catch of the day (red snapper) with mixed vegetables,... More

One of the best restaurants I've been to! Great wine, food, service and the owner is awesome! The steak was to die for, and their Moscato was the best I hage ever had! This place is a must!

My wife and I enjoyed a wonderful meal....she especially enjoyed the lamb. The atmosphere and service were tremendous. If fact, we enjoyed it so much we went back the following evening.

The moment you enter the restaurant you feel at home. The server are very kind and attend and the manager/owner is very friendly. The food is delicious and the dessert is very good. When you are on the island don’t miss to visit this restaurant. It’s all about good taste, fine food, elegant interior and an excellence atmosphere.

Loved this place for the food. There were six of us and all agree. Service was extremely slow, but pleasant. Waitress had the softest voice I have ever heard. Actually i could not hear her at all.

My wife and I recently ried The Wine Cellar for our 11th anniversary dinner during our vacation in Curacao. The owner Nico and his son Anton were very warm, personable and pleasant. I am a fairly garrulous person and struck up a conversation with them. The snapper was fresh, prepared in continental fashion and presented well. We had a wonderful,... More

We arrived at 11:30 a.m. after a failed attempt to see the Cathedral on a Monday morning. I noticed the restaurant across the street and remembered the good reviews. Although they don't open until noon and they were in the middle of cleaning, they asked us to give them 10 minutes and then allowed us in to eat. There is... More

This restaurant is amazing - I had the fresh catch of the day - Caribbean Red Snapper with fresh veggies ad mashed potatoes. The chocolate cake comes with a scoop of ice cream for dessert and is delicious! But above all the service was outstanding!

This was the most fabulous place! Not only was the food top notch, like amazing, but the service and friendliness of the staff made the experience that much more enjoyable. I enjoy finding the best restaurant when we go on vacation and this was definitely it by far!

Taxi paid by restaurant picked us up and delivered back to the hotel. Daniel, owner's son greeted us and made us feel at home. Enjoyed excellent rack of lamb, unusual but delicious garden salad, and crepes for desert. All perfect. After dinner, Daniel waited with us for the taxi and passed on some of the family restaurant lore. A very... More
