Restaurant is located very nice at a pier but airport is to nearby. Food is ok but not worth to make the long drive. Service could be more attentive. Good location for a romantic dinner but not if you are hungry :-) more

Just ok

I hate to be a spoiler given the other rave reviews of this restaurant, but my wife and I and another couple dined here one evening and did not find that it lived up to its reviews. What we found was that while the setting is lovely it is no different than some other lovely water restaurant settings in Aruba;... more

Just back from a lovely dinner. The restaurant is on a pier in the water, and it just so pleasant an atmosphere! The host is welcoming and the food wonderful. Both the salsa and cucumber salads are fantastic. A number of items can be ordered as appetizers or entrees. There is no children's menu, but my grandson enjoyed the chicken... more

Last month my husband and I visted Aruba on our honeymoon. The concierge at our hotel recommended Pinchos for one of our dinners. We couldn't have been more pleased. The food was wondeful and the atmosphere was beautiful. We highly recommend the pork tenderloin which was just delicious. To celebrate our marriage they lit sparklers in our dessert. All and... more

Pincho's Grill and Bar is one of the most memorable dining experiences I had in Aruba - possibly, in my life. The restaurant is nothing short of enchanting, atmosphere-wise. Located at the end of a pier at Surfside Marina in Palm Beach, it is an intimate open air restaurant that probably has about 12 tables - all of which face... more

My husband and I arrived at 6pm for the 6:30 sunset and loved every minute of our dinner. You walk out the the restaurant on a pier, so you are sitting over the water for dinner. The tuna tataki appteizer was small but delicious. The sangria and pina colada was excellent. The grouper was the best I've ever had and... more

Among all our dinners during our four day visit, Pinchos Bar and Grill was our favorite experience. The restaurant is perched up with the clear ocean water running underneath. We arrived at 6:30P, half an hour early from our reservation, but they seated us anyway. The staff was really friendly and professional. The ambience is just so romantic and beautiful.... more

Went to Pinchos tonight. The setting, atmosphere and incredible views did not disappoint. Service was good. The food was another story. Far from any culinary delight. The kitchen is 4ft long on a pier so what you get is pretty similar to a back yard barbeque...chicken, steak or fish cooked on a grill with vegetables cooked beside it. If you... more

I don't eat a ton... I'm the person that leaves with a doggie bag at the end of the night regardless of how good the food is. Not here. My friend and I split two meals because we couldn't decide which we wanted (they both sounded delicious)!!! Both meals were awesome, although the steak with the blue cheese/dark rum sauce... more

The "kitchen" is 4 feet wide and shared by 2 cooks. Everything is on the pier out in the open. My husband's fish was better than mine. Tuna appetizer was succulent. Sunset was a "photo op" and the owner was charming. House made sangria was delicious. Reservations are a must. more
