Bohemian Bar & Restaurant

We had an amazing meal! The octopus was perfectly tender and full of flavor — one of the best I’ve had anywhere. The lamb chops were juicy and cooked to perfection, and the sea bass was fresh, flaky, and beautifully seasoned. Every dish was thoughtfully prepared and delicious. Highly recommend this place for anyone who enjoys great food and attentive service.

I was grumbling walking in, wanting initially to eat in an Italian restaurant, but I left gleefully gratified, sated with a satisfying meal. The entrance takes you into another world, though integrated very much into the surroundings of the vibrant Aruba scene. The lighting is dim and you feel as if you’re eating in a hideaway. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, with all the beginning parts of the dining experience — bread, water, drinks, etc, completely thoughtfully. Your waiter will not only repeat your order, he or she may also tell you what to expect in terms of the degree of spice, what sort of lobster will be served, the marinations, and the types of side dishes to expect. Our waiter also checked in with us, as did a manager or two. The meal moved along expeditiously, but it wasn’t rushed. It was just the right tempo. We had the meat and cheese boards combined — a special request that was easily accommodated. I loved the Mahi kebab. It was bountiful, flavored amazingly with a zesty but not too spicy ratatouille sauce. Get it! The apple crisp is an apple crisp without the fillers — flat, crispy, and flavorful, containing every aspect of an hearty apple tart though famous for its thinness, presented in a round shape for several to share. The bill is delivered to you just as the meal was: in a unique way. It arrives in a book — literally a book — leaving an impression on you, just as the rest of the dining experience.

Amazing, amazing! Came here on a whim and it was totally worth it. Service was great, we made it in time for happy hour which is 5-7 and drinks were $7 with a decent selection. We had 5 different drinks. Food was also really delicious, we had the wagyu carpaccio, tuna tartare and lobster bisque for appetizers. For mains we had the steak tartare and the Gambas. I highly recommend the Gambas au Cognac which is a shrimp dish with rice pilaf. This place is fantastic. If you're not uptight about a cat running around and a shaky table (which they fixed for us when I brought it to their attention) you gotta eat here!

Bohemian in Aruba is an absolute gem! From the moment you step into its lush, garden-like setting, you feel transported into a relaxed, chic paradise. The atmosphere is vibrant yet intimate — perfect for a romantic dinner or a fun night out with friends. Yes there is a house cat that roams around, doesn't bother anyone, and is cute. And I don't even like cats! The food is simply outstanding — beautifully presented, full of flavor, and clearly made with care. Every dish (gambas cognac, lobster bisque, steak tartar) we tried was delicious, and the cocktails were top-notch, crafted with creativity and flair. They have a $7 happy hour drink menu and its from 5-7pm! The service was just as impressive — warm, attentive, and genuinely friendly without being overbearing. Bohemian is definitely one of the best dining experiences in Aruba — a must-visit spot for anyone who appreciates great food, ambiance, and service!

The staff at Bohemian were incredibly accommodating, personable, and friendly, which made the experience even more special. The food and drinks were absolutely delicious—every dish we ordered was cooked to perfection and bursting with flavor. They also went above and beyond to celebrate a birthday at our table, bringing out a dessert topped with festive sparkler-style fireworks that made the night unforgettable. Truly a wonderful dining experience—I highly recommend it!

Went to this place for dinner during my stay in Aruba. The place got a decent vibe and atmosphere. I ordered their lobster pasta and lamb shank. The food was served at good temperature. Taste was decent. The lamb meat was tinder and juicy but has some from improvement.

My waiter was amazing! The food and drinks were delicious. My one year old absolutely loved the bread that he ate it all. I would definitely come again!

This is easily the best restaurant I’ve ever been to. It was like the person that made the menu catered to exactly what my husband and I wanted to eat. Everything was cooked to absolute perfection, served beautifully, with exceptional service. The owner came by our table and was really nice and personable. You can tell he has passion for this place. The octopus is a MUST. It is cooked perfectly, so tender, and with the most delicious sauce. I had a paella and my husband had short rib. They were recommended by the staff. Both were excellent. Lots of options for seafood or meats, whatever you want to eat. The profiteroles were a perfect dessert to share. This is place is going to be really hard to beat. If you’re the island, don’t hesitate and go straight here for dinner.
