My husband rarely eats seafood, he actually despises it! Being it our 10 year anniversary trip, being open minded and knowing my love for seafood he overheard how amazing the menu is at the Wacky Wahoo. All I can say is, FANTASTIC! My husband loved it sooooo much that we've been back 3 nights in a row. This is a... More

We read the reviews on Trip Advisor and decided we had to try this place...we are soooo glad we did! The fish is very fresh, prepared Aruban style (grilled with interesting light sauce over a wonderful rice and bean combo). My husband tried wahoo for the first time which was wonderful and I had the grouper. It was one of... More

We had a reservation yesterday for four people at 8:00 p.m. After struggling to wake our youngest up from an afternoon nap, we were running a little late and arrived about 5 - 10 minutes late. It didn't matter since all of the tables were full and clearly no one had just been seated. We walked in and a very... More

My wife and I ate the Blackened Snapper it was excellent. The service was great . Book your reservations early it gets packed in there , not to much of a seating area, it also has a small bar that can easy get crowded.

This place is simply amazing. All the fish was caught that day and it couldn't be fresher. You can tell the chef puts tons of time and effort into each and every dish. The place is small, so try to make a reservation. If you can, get the red snapper or grouper.

We heard about this restaurant from others on the beach. We walked over, but discovered that reservations are a very good idea. It is small and the word is out. We made reservations for the next night and it was worth it. The food was fresh, tasty and well presented. We even took pictures. We are going back this year... More

Wacky Wahoo is a gem in Aruba. We just took our second trip to Aruba this April and again had an out of this world dinning experience at this restaurant. This restaurant comes highly recommended by all the regulars who have come to call Aruba their second home. The food is simple but presented in a 5 star manner. You... More

It's all about fresh fish at a reasonable price - fresh fish is easy to find in Aruba, but not at a reasonable price. Wonderful owners/foodservers and a delicious meal make this slightly out of the way place worth the visit

This is a nice modest storefront restaurant that should probably be expanded due to demand and because of the success of the establishment. The service was very good and our meals were delicious. Expect very large serving sizes. We had to package the leftovers, so we certainly got our money's worth. this place lives up to its reputation.

Went here after seeing the reviews and it was all true! Odd location, should have made reservations on a Saturday night, and its all about the fresh seafood! My hubby had the blackened swordfish with scallops, I had the wahoo chefs special. Both great dishes! This is not fancy or quaint, it's loud and noisy! Good authentic food!
