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
