Glenn's Place

Glenn’s Place is truly a gem of Aruba. The food is amazing, and the chicken wings truly are the best the island has to offer if you love chicken. Also the taste of the sauce.. didn’t expect this to be so tasty. A must visit. Thank you Glenn, my wife really enjoyed your food and your daughter’s very kind service.

Great local food at a good price! Very friendly family owned restaurant!

Our first trip to Aruba, so we were looking for a quiet restaurant to sample local cuisine. After looking through many menus online, we decided to try Glenn's place, and we were not disappointed!!There were 3 of us, and we shared a large sampler platter that had beef, chicken, shrimp, and ribs in a tasty gravy with onions and peppers. That came with a large plate of French fries. We also had 2 side salads and a bowl of oxtail soup with polenta. All of the food was delicious, and the oxtail soup was especially outstanding! (I wasn't sure what to expect, but was so glad we tried it!!) We all left with full bellies without spending a fortune!Our server was Glenn's nephew, and he was very friendly and explained some of the menu items for us!! I think that we were the only tourists in the place, and I enjoyed the local vibe. The bar section of the restaurant was filled with jovial locals. Come prepared to pay in CASH!!

As a local, I would say this is probably one of the most local and authentic Arubian food you will find on this island. Nothing fancy, no decoration. Just a standard dive bar, and a good restaurant on the side.

One of my best meals on the island. This place came on a recommendation from a local mentioning that it serves the best home cooked meals on the island, and it surely didn’t disappoint. The restaurant is quaint and full of locals. Not too much seating, however I can see that it is expanding. The staff and Glenn himself made my family and I feel welcomed and comfortable. The food…I originally came for the iguana soup however it wasn’t available. We ordered several dishes, from the tripe soup to the chicken satay and none of the dishes were disappointing. I guess one could be nitpicky, but I am surely not that considering the hospitality of the staff and the ambiance of feeling like I belong.

This little family run restaurant is friendly and very affordable. The food is delicious.We were greeted by a man who is owner. He greeted us as we came in. Very friendly. He also came over to our table and spoke with us for a bit a couple of times. Very friendly place. His nephew actually took our order. It’s a greatI had the the stewed goat meat. My friends had the oxtail. We also tried the shark dish. All of it was delicious. Food is very well prepared. I ate everything on my plate.They also serve macaroni salad, and french fries with the dishes. The macaroni salad was a unique item that I was not expecting. But, I really liked it.This place is very affordable for this area. If you’re looking for very good local food that won’t break your budget, you need to come here.It’s basically a bar/restaurant. You can tell that locals frequent this place. There were a lot of locals in there while we were there.There’s a friendly and exciting energy here simply because the staff and owner are just wonderfully welcoming people.I love this place.

Awesome little local spot!! One of the best goat and oxtail meals we had in a very long time. Very reasonable price also

Little inland gem of a restaurant enjoyed by locals and tourists. Best part was Glenn came out to chat with with us, truly interested in our island experience, and satisfaction with his food. Amazing guy, and rest of staff super friendly. Elaborate menu with Carribean and Chinese influence, which makes sense when you learn about Glenn's background.
