    Loved everything about our food, service and atmosphere. The only issue is the bugs/flies constantly landing in your food and drinks.

    Madame Janette a very nice place. Food was good, just the service is a little bit slow. Price is reasonable and I do definitely recommend to try this place. It’s family friendly and a cozy atmosphere.

    We hadn’t gone to Madame Jeannette S’s for a few years because it had poor food. We tried it last night - 4 people. All of our food came out cold. I had the schnitzel and potatoes - all cold and sent back. The other three had. Either French fries or potatoes. All cold and sent back. Only one of the main courses was warm. The rest had to be sent back to be reheated. We have now officially eliminated MJ’s from our list of restaurants-PERMANENTLY.

    An excellent restaurant that any visitor to Aruba shouldn’t miss. The restaurant has an indoor area as well as an outdoor area. We sat outside and it was very beautiful there. The food is excellent, and the service is incredible. Definitely get there!

    We really enjoyed the whole experience of dining at Madame Janette’s. The food was exceptional, the almond crusted grouper was amazing! The service was excellent. Wonderfully authentic Aruba experience.

    We haven’t dined here in a couple of years. Decided to give it a try again last night and I’m very happy we did. Everything was excellent. Drinks, apps, dinner, dessert, and service. Darvis and John were our waiters and they were great. I really like the red light system they use to alert the waitstaff if you need anything. Very clever. We will definitely be back.
