Sunset Grille — Restaurant in Aruba

Mixed review. Food: Ordered the NY Prime steak medium rare. Was delicious! Lean and yet not dry with perfect grill marks. Not indicative of anything but they sure look nice. Got side of ratatouille which has nice large chunks of mixed vegetables in a wonderful sauce. That may have been my favorite part! Warning to small children. This was a traditional preparation, not like the movie with the same name. Don’t be disappointed, just eat it and smile like the Linguini falling in love with Colette. What a nice movie. I DIGRESS Service: I was on business solo and was dressed appropriately for the restaurant. I was sat at the rear of the restaurant pretty much alone with a big pole in front of me. I noticed multiple other open tables and asked to move which was granted but still out of the way. Service started abruptly and I had three waiters/servers in 30 seconds. After declining the alcohol menu, it was clear I was going to be pumped out as quickly as possible. That’s fine. I noticed wonderful interactions all around me from the same and other waiters so it was pretty clear, they wanted to move my table. Overall: Wonderful food and neat ambiance. Just make sure you look the part and aren’t alone. I kinda want to come back and ‘Pretty Woman’ them with my family. Dang I am in a movie quote...

Wow, what a wonderful surprise to have this amazing restaurant right in our Hilton hotel!! A wonderful meal from start to finish!! I was blown away!! To start, as an appetizer we had the lobster bisque and crab cake, both were just great, velvety bisque with a lovely crispy buttery croissant overlay and the crab cakes Had just the right amount of seasoning. ...For dinner we had the ribeye and paired it with a lobster tail with sides of mushrooms, asparagus and "to die for" mashed potatoes, all were prepared to perfection!! The steak one of the best I've ever had and my personal favorite sides were the mushrooms and potatoes, just awesome! As a surprise they prepared a special anniversary dessert plate that was just adorable and a perfect sweet ending to a great stay at the Hilton and fantastic dinner! Finally, A special thank you to Hirim the food and bev manager for his hospitality and warmth..he truly cares about his guests and it shows!! He and his awesome team made our experience one not soon to...

My husband and I shared 4 things from the menu so we could taste different foods. The crispy cauliflower appetizer was fine, the king scallops appetizer was not what we expected; we got 3 med-sized and rubbery scallops...nothing special (for $29), we ordered the $70 ribeye to share, and although it was cooked med-rare as we suggested, it was very bland and boring. We ordered a twice-baked potato to go with the steak and it was very dry...the cheese on the top looked like it was shriveled up... there was supposed to be bacon in it, but it was chunks of ham, we concluded it was probably leftover ham from breakfast....and we each had one bottle of beer! The bill was $178..and we still left a 20%tip for the waitress because it wasn't her fault!! This place presents themselves as a fancy restaurant, but don't be fooled...the food is extremely bland and unappetizing!!! I was so surprised with cost compared to what we got, that I was lost for words when I left...
