Ike's Bistro

We had an excellent dinner at Ike's last week. Loved the vibe and the service - our waitress was so funny and did a beer bottle pour that I would never attempt myself! Our table had the buffalo cauliflower wings, lychee ceviche, vegan steak and shrimp, and the truffle risotto with tofu and veggies. Everything was absolutely delicious and a great way to start our vacation. It was so refreshing to travel to an island where restaurants have incredible vegan options - we really appreciated this!!!

Very very tasty vegan food in Aruba. Highly recommend the Porcini Risotto. Cocktails are amazing. We had the Brazilian Blue, The Aloevera, and Cucumber Martini. Vegan grilled fish (tofu of course) was unbelievable. It tasted like a hunk of King Fish. Grilled vegetables were perfection. Highly recommend this to all vegans in Aruba. Mackayla is a FANTASTIC server and the vibes were unbelievable. Very happy with this place.

I highly recommend Ikes Bistro.The ambiance is amazing. We ate in the garden area which had very comfortable seating. Palm trees were surrounding the dining area and it was very romantic. Beautiful live music was being played in the background. The waitstaff was so nice. Now let's talk about the food. It was to die for. I had the red snapper and hubby had the corvina fish. Both were prepare perfectly. Served with fresh veggies and a tomato risotto. For dessert we shared the tiramisu which was so delicious.

Our server, Stephanie, was amazing. They had great vegan options for me, I had the truffle risotto, so so good! My fish / meat eating friends were also delighted with their meal. Plus the drink menu is excellent.

I went for the octopus appetizer and LOVED IT. I also thoroughly enjoyed the shrimp ravioli appetizer and chocolate cake with hazelnut icecream. Stephanie was my server and we had a great time chatting. The chef, Elton, came to my table and was so charming. I brought bouillabaisse home to enjoy for lunch tomorrow and can’t wait! It’s a lovely quiet restaurant and i look forward to returning my next trip to Aruba. Thank you, Elton and Stephanie. See you!!

We recently spent a week in Aruba and I found Ike’s while searching online for highly rated places to eat. The night we went there was also the night we all got dressed up to celebrate my daughter’s graduation from college. We arrived before the sunset and walked around the resort area and beach to take pictures. It turned out to be the perfect place for pictures, as well as the perfect dinner and our favorite of the whole week. The service was amazing, the food was amazing and atmosphere was amazing. The carrot soup was outstanding - never had anything better anywhere! Everyone in my family, tried it and loved it. It was truly a memorable evening, and I strongly recommend this restaurant.

Very chill restaurant. Small but good menu of mostly fish and some meat and pasta options. I really loved my shrimp scampi dish. We showed up without a reservation and were nice enough to find us a table right by the pool. Friendly host and waiters. It is next to the bar and most nights they have musicians playing which is nice. Prices on the higher side but overall it’s worth it.

A vegan menu!!! The food was pretty good although my risotto was too salty. The soy fish was fantastic, the soup yummy, and the vegan ceviche was ridiculously good! I wasn’t crazy about the cauliflower buffalo wings sauce but everything was splendidly presented. The chocolate hazelnut mousse cake was the best! Beautiful restaurant, and tolerable music.
