We recently celebrated our anniversary at Papillon and loved the whole experience, especially the decor. Emily was our waitress and she had a great personality and answered all our questions. We had the short rib croquettes and frog legs for appetizers. We each had a cocktail, both of which were delicious. For dinner I had the wild boar which was cooked perfectly but I loved the beet risotto with it. My husband had a fish dish and they gave us a special anniversary surprise to end the night. I highly recommend this gem for a special night out!

One of our must-visit restaurants every time we’re in Aruba! 🇦🇼❤️ The food, service, and overall experience are always fantastic, and this visit did not disappoint. We started with the Tuna Duo — classic French tuna tartare, fresh grilled tuna, wasabi mayonnaise, and wakame salad — and the Escargots in a creamy sauce with mushrooms, garlic, onions, and herbs, served with toasted bread. Both appetizers were absolutely delicious! For our entrée, we shared the Rack of Lamb, a marinated New Zealand rack of lamb with classic beurre maître d’hôtel. It was cooked to perfection, incredibly tender, and more than enough for two to share. And of course, when enjoying French cuisine, you have to finish with Crème Brûlée! The vanilla bourbon crème with its perfectly crispy caramel top and blueberry fruit sorbet was simply so good! 😋 Another wonderful meal and another reason this restaurant remains on our Aruba must-visit list. We look forward to coming back every time we visit the island! 🇦🇼🍷🥂

Such a great meal and experience. Our server Noelia recommended me a cocktail that was so delicious I had another, although I could have also ordered the one my husband got as his was tasty too. Mango and blueberry martinis. We then had the tuna duo followed by the crusted cod filet and lobster. Plates were cleared. Somehow we still managed to fit in dessert. Crème brûlée and tarte tartin. Service was exceptional and I highly recommend a visit if you are in the Palm Beach area.

Papillon was a great time even though I was 💯 spent and my hip was barking up a tree. The food was delicious and the service amazing. I even got a smooch for dessert.
