Patio 15

11 Places to Explore in Aruba | Eater

"Downtown Oranjestad is a great spot to spend a leisurely afternoon, capping off with dinner at the new Patio 15. Built in 1860 as an Aruban home, it is now an outdoor patio and lounge where wine, sangria, and signature cocktails – like the Key lime pie martini — flow. There are over 30 tapas on the menu, but a great place to start is with the cool, refreshing watermelon feta pizza, where a slice of watermelon subs in for dough and is piled high with feta and balsamic. Hot tapas such as the coconut shrimp mango shot which pairs three crunchy, savory shrimp with a sweet mango chiller, and the lobster mac and cheese, which is made with local rock lobster and served in cupcake form, don’t disappoint." - Marie Elena Martinez
