Madame Janette

Best service of any restaurant in the world! I have a masters degree in customer service and this place wowed me!!! Totally Love this restaurant!!! This is a must go place if you go to Aruba you have to come here!!My visit to Madame Janette with my wife! The Food, the service , the ambiance totally compliments! The dessert!! 10/10!! Highly recommend eating the seabass!! The bang bang shrimp is delectable,tastilicious!! They have live music too!!

Everything from the drinks to the appetizers to the main dish to the dessert had fantastic flavors. The chefs beef carppacio is a MUST try. The black truffle shavings add to the impeccable taste. Did try the Tomahawk for 2, which was perfectly cooked. Chimichurri sauce and the steak butter are the best to pair with steak.

THE SERVICE: The hostess gave a friendly and welcoming greeting. After confirming our reservation we were then escorted to our outdoor dining table. The outdoor area was aesthetically pleasing leaning into “Boho Chic” vibes with live music. The waiter oriented us to the menu, reviewed specials; and then explain the functionality of a white enclosed tube device centered on the table. The device is to be turned upside down changing its color to red signaling to the wait staff assistant is needed. We used this device during our dinner service when needing assistance and staff appeared almost immediately; I suspect that’s their operating practice vs an assigned waiter checking in. All food items arrived well timed and at the desired temperatures. THE FOOD: Appetizers We ordered the famous bang bang shrimp which was absolutely delicious. Shrimp was crispy and dressed in a creamy sauce with undertones of heat and sweet. The pineapples were perfectly ripened and the romaine was fresh lending the perfect bite. Main course I ordered Madame's famous Burgerloin which was a plated beauty. The steak was cooked to my desired doneness and was tender but required salt and pepper as it fell short on flavor. The sautéed vegetables, cheese filling and sauce rounded out a delectable bite. The side potato gratin was flavorful and divine ~ more of a main item vs a sidekick. My tablemates ordered the cutting-board Tenderloin Filet and the jumbo shrimp "Coco di Rasta"~ respectively. Both commented they enjoyed their meals. Note: portions are in abundance! Be aware the restaurant charges an optional plate sharing fee of $12.00USD that includes an additional side. For persons wearing heals, outdoor seating area is gravel~ so take caution. Those with vehicles, there is ample parking. Double check your bill as we were given another table’s tab which was significantly higher than ours. THE VALUE: Satisfactory service, inviting atmosphere, and good food with high quality ingredients. I found this restaurant to be worth the price tag, but not a budget buster.

Excellent dinner at Madame Janette. The food, atmosphere and music was all spot on. Great wine list. The sea bass was the best I’ve ever had. The carpaccio is a must have. Jai totally made the night and her charm only elevated the experience.

The service was very good. We had the Tuna tartar, ceviche and beef carpaccio for apps, they were all great! We had the skirt steak and Versace for entrees, the entrees were ok, nothing outstanding except for the portion. I wished that they would make a little smaller, we were only able to eat half of the food and since we were staying at a hotel, bringing food home wasn't an option. The atmosphere is nice but it almost felt like a restaurant that is not in the Caribbean trying to make it look like they are in the Caribbean, hard to explain. Overall, it was a decent experience. I am not sure if I would come back here tho.

Perfect ambiente, best service, delicious cocktails (Espresso Martini & Porn Star Martini!) & a very good dinner! One little thing: The portion is way too much, I second to reduce the burger size - but anyways on the next day it was still delicious, good quality meat.

We have been coming to Madame Janette for 15+ years. This place never disappoints. The shrimp casserole and the crusted almond grouper are my favorite dishes. The coconut cake is just CRAZY good ! Can’t wait to go back. 😍

Great place and fun atmosphere. Waiter Darwin (That’s not the right name but close?) was very pleasant and friendly. Almond grouper was a hit!
