Let me start by saying out apitizers tasting like it was burned the patacon with cheese was like reheated in the microwave..the bandeja paisas didnt have any taste so basicly... read more stay away theres alot more places that serve better food on aruba.

  The food, service and atmosphere was truly amazing. Everything was seasoned perfectly!! Will go again!!

  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!

  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.

  I ate there recently with a couple of friends and I have to say that the service that we received from a server called Dwight Maduro was absolutely perfect. For... read more example the way he approached the table, the way he stands and holds the tray and takes his orders very professional. He can work at any other and better restaurants on the island. The food was delicious and on time. One advice I can give the owners is that if they can hire more servers that can do the job like Dwight smile like him and that can speak english at least basic...This place will rock.

  Don Jacintho is a must do when going for lunch. They have lunch specials which are a great deal. The service was great.

  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.

  If you are not Colombian looking then visit Don Jacinto to get discriminated. First time entered this restaurant, nothing is asked besides “how many people”, while I had a online... read more reservation. We all sat on super uncomfortable chairs, 2 uneven tables were pushed to accomodate us plus we wait 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 and nobody was interested in the reason leaving, so they dont even are willing to improve! I was with kids, and any other restaurant in Aruba you get attended and welcomed at least with water which is for free!

  we have driven by this place a million times and never stopped in......well.....we finally made it and it was an excellent meal
we were wondering why we hadnt stopped in... read more earlier in our yearly visits to this one happy island

menu choices were extensive....and tough to decide what to order...it is all so good

we went with a steak off the grill and weren't disappointed....plenty of sides and
we were able to share one meal and still be stuffed

service is fast and friendly and we really enjoyed our meal here
