Bad service, worse restaurant in Aruba If you are not Colombian looking then visist Don Jacinto to get discriminated. First time we entered this restaurant, nothing is asked besides... read more “how many people”, while I had a online reservation already. We all sat on super uncomfortable chairs, 2 uneven tables were pushed to accomodate us plus we waited half hour and still no sign of a waiter… I saw 2 groups entering some time after us and within 5 min the waiters were attending them, bringing water. We left as we were with kids and they were hungry. Nobody from the restaurant was interested in the reason leaving, so they dont even are willing to improve! They were just standing and watching. In any other restaurant in Aruba you get attended and welcomed at least with water which is for free especially when you enter with children. But this restuarant will never see us nor will I ever recommend to anyone!

The waitress didn’t necessarily follow instructions properly but that’s ok cause the food was average &, worth the lunch special price of $8. Had a small soup with rice and... read more meat on the side.

Our first time having Columbian food - and we absolutely loved it. It was delicious. I would love to share which dish I had, but cannot get the menu to... read more pull up on their website. Very good - fresh, just delicious. Was like a stew with tomatoes and green peppers and then rice and arepas on the side - hoping to find something similar here at home... SO GOOD!

Don Jacinto’s was a few minutes walk from my AIRBNB villa and came highly recommended by the owner. The irony was that I’d almost travelled to Colombia instead of Aruba... read more but found a much cheaper flight to Aruba. I already love Colombian food, but let me tell you...the empanadas were the best I’ve ever had!!! And their spicy sauce was magnificent!! Everything was very reasonably priced...will definitely go back every time I’m in Aruba!

No one we talked to cabbies, hotel personnel, other guests had been to this restaurant; made us a bit nervous. One comment was “that’s Colombian, isn’t it?” Yes... read more indeed it IS Colombian and well worth a visit. Not visited by many “tourists” by the looks we got when we arrived. Or maybe it was because we were a pair of octogenarians! Anyway, the reception was great, the tables and chairs a bit hard, but the warmth of the server, the quality of the drinks and food made up for the lack of sophisticated environment. It was truly authentic. My seafood ceviche was lovely and the red snapper (head on) was fantastic. The margaritas to start were fresh, tart and strong. The wine was a Pinot Gris and it was crisp, flowery and cold.
No, it was not on the water. No, it did not exude a great deal of wealthy encountrements, but the food, drinks and staff were incredible good. A great find.

My wife and I wanted authentic Colombian food. I had the Bandeja Paisa which includes rice, beans, chorizo, pork rinds, Colombian-style ground beef, a fried egg, avocado, plantain slices and... read more arepa. It was delicious. The wife had Grouper a la plancha which was also yummy. The waitstaff was good and the price can't be beaten. For the meals, drinks and a tip, I paid 77.50 Aruban Florins.

Food was decent, but the service was lacking. I don't know if our waiter was in a bad mood or something be he didn't even check if we were doing... read more ok. He just gave us our food/drinks and left. Didn't even introduce himself. On top of that we kept saying "happy birthday" to my father and he didn't even bother to say happy birthday to him.
