About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming

An intimate local family ran restaurant in the heart of Oranjestad, fresh world-class seafood, prime steaks,
and unparalleled service in a vibrant, up-scale setting.

Opus experience wouldn't be possible without our local farmers and fisherman’s. Produce delivered daily keeps our menu fresh and connected to the land and ocean. A taste of Aruba infused with a Mediterranean culture in every bite. Depending what ingredients the ocean provides us, our chefs will create flavors inspired by our culture. Fresh fish brought directly to the restaurant where it is served whole or filleted and served within 24 hours. Wide variety of local fish for our guest to choose

    Was the best place we ate during our trip to Aruba outside the last two days which are TBD. Doubt they will be better than Opus. Had the lobster tail and stuffed shrimp. Food was great and service was even better. Staff were all so friendly and took enjoyment in us celebrating wife’s birthday and our babymoon. Even gave us a special desert that included a little baby foot outline made out of chocolate. Restaurant also has a nice and intimate atmosphere. Wife asked if we can eat there again before we leave so we will see. Can’t recommend enough.

    Been coming to the island for years and have been sleeping on this amazing restaurant. The drinks were so yummy, the grouper was to die for and finished with another yummy drink…espresso martini. A must visit when on the island. The wait staff so fun especially Fizz! Have him tell you what’s on the dessert menu! 🤌🏼

We can’t wait to welcome you back on your next trip to the island! Opus Ocean & Grill Management Team
