I loved everything. From the time we were seated, we had the undivided attention of the walt staff. Our main waiter was funny. The food was impeccable. Wish I could take the restaurant home. Lol. Keep up the great work guys.

I want to start off by thanking Wilhelmina for accommodating us on such short notice for dinner after a bad experience at another local restaurant canceling on us abruptly. A true blessing in disguise because Wilhelmina ended up serving us our favorite meal in Aruba! Everything was spectacular! Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Delicious food. I will dream about the Wilhelmina ravioli and Indonesian roasted pork until my return.

We happened to find Wilhelmina through the internet. WOW is what we all said! From the atmosphere, the plate presentation to the flavor of the food. All the restaurants we tried through out the islands this was the best by far! Wilhelmina will be a sure dinner stop for our annual trip to Aruba. You have to try this place!

This is our second time in Aruba and we tried some fine dining but this restaurant it’s by far the best out there. Food is prepared to perfection especially catch of the day. The fish was so soft and tender that it melts in your mouth. Don’t forget to try ravioli oh my so so good. Go there you won’t regret. We will be coming back

We’ve been to several restaurants this week and this one tops the list. Food & drinks were outstanding. The outdoor seating was beautiful, lots of air movement so very comfortable to be outside.

Service and food were phenomenal! However, the many flies on our food was pretty gross. A few hidden fly traps would help. The food was excellent but extremely pricey. We would love to come back but probably won’t because of the flies in our food.
