Rich's Arubian Dish

Did not live up to the reviews. The sea food was over cooked. The sauce on the linguine was very good. Has a Columbian dish. The chorizo was a little dry, fat back was over cooked and dry, and the beef was very tender and flavorful. It came with rice,fried egg, plantains, and something they said was salad it was nasty. The escargot in garlic sauce was very good. Could have used a couple more slices of bread. Calamari was good to perfection.

During my recent visit to Aruba, I had the pleasure of dining at Rich’s Arubian Dish on my final evening, and it truly was an exceptional experience. To start, I opted for the soup of the day, a delightful fish soup that impressed me with its rich flavor and perfectly balanced seafood taste. For my main course, I indulged in the fried snapper, leaving me wishing I had discovered this hidden gem sooner. Our meals were served by Mike, whose remarkable hospitality added to the overall experience. This local restaurant truly exceeded my husband and I expectations, and the drinks were equally enjoyable. If you find yourself weary of typical resort fare or simply wish to explore authentic Arubian cuisine, I highly recommend making your way to Rich Arubian Dish. The best part? The prices are remarkably reasonable for such quality. Don’t miss out!

This place was outstanding! Ate there tonight and had the famous keshi yena dish and Aruba’s signature drink, the Ariba. Everything was delicious, including all the starter dishes like the ceviche and my wife and kids all LOVED their dishes. The service was wonderful and their prices all very reasonable. It was nice to get authentic, local, delicious cuisine! Highly recommended for anyone who wants a true taste of this beautiful island!

This place is wonderful. Staff was friendly and happy to make recommendations. We started with the calamari, not super breaded, very fresh, wonderful! Had the Arubian flag for dinner (wish I had taken a picture) so did my hubby. Fish was wonderful! They have a kids menu which had pasta for our very picky kiddo, he like it (and he liked the calamari, that says something). Prices very reasonable. Even had a nice glass of wine! We certainly recommend!!!

So running to find something authentic in Aruba besides all the big restaurants I came into Rich.. And as he was closing down I ask him does he have anything available because we have yet to have anything Aruban.. And he made.. Keshi Yena.. Rich was so kind he was out cook our bartender and server... Felt like we were at his home and he was cooking for his family... We had a blast
