Café Copacabana — Restaurant in Curaçao

This Place was the first place that didn’t play games with us. The owner “Vinny” is from the island. He has had this business many years. He hires only the the best staff. If your in a hurry order off the Menu but if want the good stuff get the specials on the board. The food was much better then the higher priced places we had eaten at earlier in our stay.

There are many other coffee shops. Their loss now for indifference to repeat customers. Note, it seems they have shifted to "cruise boat" visits since it seems that on our previous visits that week, everyone...

2019: Our group of 14 came across this place on our walk through town. Every single dish we had was delicious. The entire group rated the food excellent. We had meatballs, shrimp, teriyaki chicken, stew chicken and even their rice and beans (think it was called bora?)

Loved the food. The staff was efficient and accommodating. We even found our native beer Carib and drink, Shandy here. This is the only place we found those. Keep up the good work.

Came back again in May 2022, looking for the wonderful meals. Unfortunately, it seems like the meal section was closed. Not sure if it was temporary or permanent, we didn't ask. We got some drinks, sat a bit and continued the...
