Aruba is an ideal vacation spot for all types of travelers. From romantic getaways to family trips, there's no shortage of fun for everyone. Of course, in the Caribbean they believe that mealtime should be no exception to this rule. Legendary hospitality and impeccable cuisine have made restaurants in Aruba truly unforgettable.

Restaurants around Aruba are very accommodating and the comfort of guests is ususally their main concern. Most restaurants require only casual attire, allowing travelers to be comfortable at all times. Of course, bathing suits should not be worn into restaurants, although shorts and sundresses are usually welcomed. High-end restaurants in Aruba will occasionally require long pants, particularly for dinner or in the high season. If you are unsure about the dress requirements, feel free to telephone ahead and ask.

Restaurants on the island get extremely busy, particularly during the peak winter season. Consequently, vacationers are advised to make reservations well in advance to ensure that tables are available. Booking a table in advance can be made easy by such means as faxing reservations to restaurants before you even leave home. Hotels with concierge on staff should be able to give personalized recommendations and make reservations for their guests, as well.

Travelers should also be aware that when the check is presented at a restaurant in Aruba, a service charge of 15 percent may have already been assessed. This is a gratuity for your servers and the staff who prepared your meal and if the charge is present, there is no need for additional tipping. If this charge is absent from your bill, the tipping standard here is around 15 to 20 percent, as in the United States. As always, guests should tip to reflect the quality of service.

After a long day of swimming the ocean, exploring the colorful towns, or shopping for local crafts, hungry travelers will be delighted to discover that the food, service, and atmosphere found in restaurants in Aruba are deserving of their world-class reputation.
