    We had reservations for 630. We arrived closer to six. They took us in at a very nice table. They’re the one man guitarist Salve, who was very good playing nice easy, listening music during dinner. The entire staff was outstanding and did not rush you at all they gave you a light if you want service you just turn it over and it turns red and they come to you within a minute or two.

    We have eaten here every year for the past 4 years on our Aruba vacation. First year it was outstanding. Last year we experienced not so great service and just chalked it up to a bad server. Tonight it was worse than last year and added undercooked food to the exceptionally slow service. We had to order drink refills multiple times and received our steak completely undercooked. No longer a regular dining spot for us.

    We have dined here off and on for years. Bringing dear family members today left us with a bad experience. I requested well in advance a table in the shade due to having my 97 year old great uncle with us, and at first was taken to a table situated in the sun. When I requested a shady area was taken to a lovely table but the young lady waiting on us was abrupt in getting our table situated. It was set up for 6 guests and we had a party of 4. She made the changes but it was visable she was not happy with the arrangement. Unfortunately my great aunts filet was over cooked and the lobster was tough on all our meals. Needless to say it may be a while before we bring guests with us because they wanted to buy dinner for my husband and I as a kind gesture for bringing them along to Aruba with us. It was heartbreaking to see them pay for expensive meals not up to the Madam Jeanette’s standards.

    Service was rushed an inattentive. The entrees were lukewarm warm when received. I felt rushed to choose my order. Staff was nice but overwhelmed.

    We were there 35 minutes before our wine was served. Grouper Almondine was flavorless. The Mario schnitzel was way overloaded with the salad topping. Definitely my worst experience in an Aruba restaurant.
