Bodega Siete Gotas — Restaurant in Curaçao

Nestled in the heart of Curaçao, Bodega Siete Gotas offers an enchanting dining experience that is both memorable and delicious. My recent visit to this charming establishment left a lasting impression, from the warm ambiance to the exquisite flavors that danced on my palette. Based on our waitresses recommendation, we started with the Chicharron de Pollo, a dish that set the tone for the rest of the evening. The chicken was perfectly crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, seasoned to perfection with a delightful blend of spices. Each bite was a harmonious blend of crunch and juiciness, making it an ideal starter that tantalized our taste buds and left us eager for the main course.

For our main course we had the B&D Ribeye Steak Dinner. The ribeye was cooked to perfection, boasting a succulent and juicy interior with a beautifully seared crust. The seasoning enhanced the natural flavors of the meat without overpowering it, and the accompanying sides complemented the dish perfectly. The presentation was impeccable, reflecting the chef’s attention to detail and commitment to quality. We had Sweet Malbec to accompany our meal, this wine was a delightful surprise, with its rich, fruity notes and smooth finish. It paired wonderfully with both the chicharron de pollo and the ribeye steak, enhancing the flavors and providing a perfect balance to the meal. The sweetness of the Malbec added a luxurious touch to our dining experience. The ambiance at Bodega Siete Gotas is warm and inviting, with a rustic charm that makes you feel at home. The decor is tasteful, and the atmosphere is relaxed yet refined. The staff and owner were attentive and knowledgeable, providing excellent service without being intrusive. Their passion for food and dedication to creating a memorable dining experience were evident in every interaction. Bodega Siete Gotas is a gem in Curaçao’s culinary scene. From the delectable Chicharron de Pollo to the exquisite B&D Ribeye Steak Dinner and the delightful sweet Malbec, every aspect of our meal was exceptional. Whether you’re a local or a visitor, this restaurant is a must-visit for anyone seeking an unforgettable dining experience. I eagerly look forward to my next visit to Bodega...

Dining at Bodega Siete Gotas was nothing short of an extraordinary experience—a veritable symphony of flavors, ambiance, and hospitality that far exceeded every expectation.

From the moment we walked in, the urban elegant atmosphere washed over us, pairing classic urban charm with a sophisticated air that made every detail feel intentional and refined. The friendly buzz of conversation, the subtle lighting, instrumental music playing softly, and the impeccable table settings elevated the scene, making us feel like honored guests from the start.

Our family opted for the Mixed Grill—a show-stopping parade of culinary mastery. The platter arrived, brimming with perfectly grilled BBQ chicken, succulent shrimp, juicy ribeye, tender & meaty pork ribs, and market-fresh fish so tender it practically melted on the fork. Each protein was seasoned and grilled to absolute perfection, showcasing a mosaic of smoky, savory, and mouthwatering flavors that danced on the palate.

Complementing this feast were mixed veggies bursting with freshness and color, and the garlic mashed potatoes—so creamy and rich, I may never look at another potato dish the same way again. The careful garnish of herbs, salsa, and vibrant pickled slaw added a punchy freshness and beautiful visual pop to every plate.

Our server, Jennifer, was a rare gem: professionally charismatic, attentive before we could even realize we needed anything, and truly passionate about the menu. Her recommendations were pitch-perfect and her energy transformed the evening from simply delightful to utterly unforgettable.

And just when we thought the night couldn’t get any better, dessert arrived—a fudgy chocolate brownie crowned with 2 scoops of velvety vanilla ice cream. Every bite was pure decadence: a flawless balance of warm, fudgy richness and cool, creamy bliss that brought our meal to a euphoric finish.

Bodega Siete Gotas isn’t just a restaurant—it’s a celebration of what dining out should be. From the stunning ambiance to the impossibly delicious food and genuinely outstanding service, this is an experience that lingers long after the last bite. If you crave the extraordinary, don’t walk—run to Bodega...

Update: Just visited again; a year later and I feel inclined to comment. A much different experience. The staff was still friendly but our waiter was not good. Our appetizer was forgotten, he did not return after our food had been served until we got up to get his attention for the check, and then the check was not split between our two couples as was agreed upon when our order was taken. We had both land and seafood and some was good, but some was not near the quality as was served a year ago. The fresh fish was quite dry, some of the steak entrees were very undercooked and not very tender. The mixed vegetables were very plain and not fresh. On the other hand, the conch, ribs, and chicken were good. The salad was excellent. Overall, I’m sorry to say it was a disappointment.

Original review: I am so happy that we found this gem. its location is a little difficult to get to but worth it. the food was terrific and the staff very friendly. Both land and seafood were equally delicious. The owner even stopped by to check with us and took the time to give us the history of the restaurant at our request Very clean and comfortable I...
