And I thought I was stopping for burgers and fries....nope... high class food. Very good. The sirloin was the bomb! Waitress was nice.

To me, the name Joe's Grillhouse suggested a place that served ribs and other grilled meats. In fact, Joe's is much more. They have excellent fish, tuna sashimi and other dishes are served at "fine dining" restaurants with fancier names.I had both the sashimi and the baby back pork ribs, which were prepared in the "dry rub" style. Two of my fellow diners had the fish of the day, which was fantastic and another one had the steak. My friend pronounced Joe's steak as one of the best steak he had ever eaten.Joe's great food is complemented by a large selection of craft beers, many from the Netherlands. I can unreservedly recommend that you "Eat at Joe's". You'll have a great time.

Some of the best food on the island in an upscale setting. Wasn't thrilled that when paying the check we noticed we were charged $5.00 for the extra bread that we ordered at the table. Two small loafs of bread for 6 people doesn't go very far and another loaf or two should be happily provided complimentary to large groups. At a minimum the extra charge should be disclosed when the bread was ordered to prevent surprises. Otherwise, this review would have been 5 stars.

The food is good and there is a children corner. Ideal place for families with kids because the parents can eat while children play. Joe"s has an outstanding bread served as entree!

Enjoy the casual and friendly atmosphere at Joe’s while having a tasty meal together with a good glass of wine, a beer or a Caribbean cocktail. Joe’s Restaurant is one of the few restaurants with a kids corner where the children can play and have fun.

Additional Info
Our Broad Selection of Beers
“As owner and chef I can really enjoy a good beer. Besides the regular beers, I have designed a beer menu that includes a tasty treat for everyone. From a soft and fresh 2% beer to a strong 11% beer. Beers from different country’s like Belgium, Holland and even a beer from Bonaire. Ask your waiter for the beer menu! Beer belongs in her own glass. Not only because it looks nice, but more important because of the taste. That’s the reason we try to serve every beer in her own glass. Not into beer? Take a look at our wine menu or maybe start with one of our Gin & Tonics.” Bart Tholen – Owner & Chef at Joe’s Bonaire
Yess! Our Own Liquor
Yess! coffee liquor contains 21% alcohol and has a sweet, fruity and spicy taste with tones of fruit, caramel and black pepper. It is produced locally on the island of Bonaire and exclusively available at Joe’s Restaurant for $22.50 per bottle.

Food was good. I had the guinea foul. The sauce was good and the cut was tender. Portion sizes lacked. The foul comes with a small portion veggies but that's it. Be you definitely needed a side. Wasn't really sure about the size differences between the small sharing portion and the larger portion for the veggy ceviche and salads. You do get a great beef tar tar that was delicious as part of all the meals . Overall, it was good. Their fish options were okay but lacked a local feel especially for a place called it rains fishes. Wish they would have more sustainable fish options as well as lion fish.

It Rains Fishes came highly recommended from several people that have been going to Bonaire for a long time. The restaurant sits overlooking the water in an open air, newly renovated building. Beautiful view! The food, mostly fresh sea food, was fantastic! This restaurant lives up to its billing!

Nice food, cosy atmosphere and a great2 view to the sea which is next door... Staff is friendly. The choice of fish was however a little disappointing on that day (only tuna).

Nice place, friendly personal, some good dishes like the sashimi from fresh tuna. Fish salad is on the small side, you could say little overpriced.

The service was outstanding. The waitress was so lively and hilarious but sadly the fish of the day was plainly cooked and the rest of the meal although good was not great. However, the filet mignon was wonderful and the restaurant gave us an appetizer on the house of salmon mousse (I thought was delicious but the other members of my party had different views). Overall, happy I ate here and would recommend to a friend 🙂

We enjoyed multiple lunches and a dinner here during our stay on the island. I would reccommend making reservations ahead of time if you are able. If not, the staff is friendly and you can sit at the bar sipping on delicious mojitos until a table opens up.The lobster risotto was out of this world and the seafood pasta was outstanding. Even the mini hamburgers were delicious if that's what you're in the mood for.If you're of legal drinking age and looking for an adult beverage, I'd reccommend the banana collada or mojito.

We like going there for lunch! It is lovely to see the boats come and to enjoy the soft wind. The food is always nice! We like the dutch specialty Dutch kroketten. They have slow but fun services. The girls always laugh and smile!

This is a great restaurant right on the water. Beautiful views and delicious fresh sea food. I had the catch of the day, which was red snapper and it was very good. It was literally caught this morning and brought from the boat 10 minutes before I ordered. Being from Colorado, I do not ever get sea food that fresh, so it was quite the treat.

We saw all the good reviews for It Rains Fishes and were looking forward to dinner. The food wasn't bad, but definitely on the high side for prices and the quality could be found at other places. We had try to go on the Fish Market night, but we missed it being too late. We were also surprised as the fish market was actually directed at European imports rather than local stuff (though that's on the menu all the time). The service was ok and the view was nice for sunsets, but the food was not memorable.

Great food and good service. The meat was very tasty and was brought out raw thinly sliced along with a cast iron grill pan. The side of rice and tomato salsa were also very tasty. There was loud live music which made it hard to talk to others at the table but I know that’s how it always is so I’m not docking any stars for that. I didn’t try the pizza but I it looked like there were some incredibly creative options. Don’t expect any Italian style pizza though.

It was good. But way overpriced. Brazilian meat combo was decent, juicy, fun to make at your table on hot grill. Disappointed the lionfish and shrimp pizza, the size of a dinner plate, was $38. It really is WAY over priced when lionfish is local and pizza is small for one person. Pizza place just down the street has lionfish pizza for more reasonable price.

When you dine here, you feel like family! The owners allowed us a peek through the kitchen to see how their one of a kind pizza is cooked. It was wonderful! Then, we feasted on perfectly marinated beef cooked on a grill at our table. Divine!

Try the most delicious, all natural beef from Brazil called PICANHA, grilled to perfection on a traditional charcoal barbecue.
