This is a great restaurant. It's a Dutch restaurant that serves very good food. It has a great selection of craft beer. I had the fish of the day that was Cod. It was very good. This place is casual dress but it is definitely a 5 star restaurant.

A delicious, relaxing meal to sit down at and thoroughly enjoy. The fresh baked bread starter was the perfect compliment to our meal. The service from Tatum was top notch, treating us like royalty. The menu was carefully curated to satisfy any dietary desire. Excellent drink and wine menu from local and abroad. By far one of the best dining experiences Bonaire has to offer.

Excellent place and great food. We had the 'catch of the day' and it was delicious and more than enough. The lady who waited our table looked a little 'stiff' in the beginning but turned out to be quite funny. I just wish they had the same view as Sebastian's which is at the shore.

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!

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.

This is a new restaurant and they are offering very good specials. We had a fantastic $10 dinner pasta, plus a good lunch sandwich. Nice day and evening ambience. Beware: They don't put alcohol in their drinks, so order wine or beer!

Excellent food- had the Calamari as an appetizer and Corvina as the main. Both were fantastic. We sat at the table at the end of the pier. Make sure to call ahead and reserve it. The dining experience was first class. Awesome sunset to go with.

Atmosphere is wonderful and seemed like there is not a bad table in the house. Our service was good not excellent but waiter was attentive and helpful with suggestions and answering questions. Food was OK. Our table had Red Snapper and a Pasta Dish. Also can get a little buggy but small price to pay for the view while dining.

Don’t order the oysters!Beautiful setting right at the sea shore.Oysters were served luke warm, without ice and dry. (They should be served on ice, cold and with fresh salty water). When asked for new cold ones, they served basically the same oysters again....The chef did not even come to our table to discus, surprisingly. Rest of food was okay, but nothing more. Setting is beautiful.

I went on Sunday, that's their Italian night. It's very busy on that night, so you probably need to make a reservation on time (ask if you can be seated at the waterside). The pizza was great, with a thin bottom. And the passion fruit mojito was one of the best cocktails I had on the island. If you're there at rush hour your food might take a while to arrive, so you're gonna need some patience.

Just had a fantastic evening here with my wife. The views are wonderful with the waves crashing on the rocks just below the tables. A school of fish was periodically jumping and skimming across the water to escape some unseen predator. The food and drinks were excellent, as was the service. It may be a bit pricey for bonaire but for about 100 dollars we ate an ap, two main dishes and desert as well as 4 drinks and a bottle of water. That is pretty cheap for the quality of food and atmosphere.

My wife and I first visited Sebastian's during Bonaire's "Restaurant Week". The location is gorgeous. The restaurant deck is built out over the reef and we were able to watch the sun go down. The food was very good and the service was excellent. We have since returned to Sebastian's and each time was very enjoyable.

Superb food for adequate price. Very nice atmosphere with a view on the windsurfing spot (we've been there 3 times during our 2 weeks windsurfing stay on Bonaire) usually for lunch. They really love food and you'll feel it. Try tuna (in all ways) and shrimps & scallops salad. Delicious 😎

The only reason it did not get 5 stars is because of the women's restroom. Needs a lot of maintenance that could be solved in a day's work. Food is fantastic, the ambiance improves with each visit, unusual selection of beers and wines and the staff is stellar!

My 27yo son and I stopped for lunch at Foodies after a morning exploring Lac Baai. We were greeted warmly; afforded a comfortable wicker seat on the porch with a view East to the Bay. Our experience was nothing short of incredible - far exceeding our expectation. We went with the fresh catch - tuna. You can see from the picture that the preparation and creativity are both exceptional, as was the service throughout our relaxing lunch. Food: exceptionalService: exceptional

It was a very different kind of meal as we cooked our own beef at the table. Enjoyable atmosphere and the staff was excellent. Prices were about the same range as other restaurants we visited in Bonaire. We split a dinner and it was plenty for us.

Attentive and friendly staff. While we were there they had a two man band playing. They weren't too loud and set a fun, comfortable mood. The bartender's dog hung out on the sidewalk outside the restaurant and waited for her owner to get off work. Very sweet. My wife and I both had pizza. They weren't real big. I ate my whole pizza, my wife ate half of hers. Simple, tasty but pricey. I would've given 5 stars if we had not paid $60 for 2 pizzas.

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.
