Casa Tua Pizzeria at Renaissance Marketplace is the downtown Oranjestad sister of the original Casa Tua Arawak — open from 8 AM through late dinner with breakfast service unique to this location. Same family recipe traced to 1969 in Montpellier, same wood-fired thin-crust pizza, same generous Italian-Mediterranean menu, but with the lively Oranjestad waterfront and cruise-port marketplace as its backdrop. Open daily 8 AM to 11 PM (the hours on both the official site and Google, checked November 2026). Daily live entertainment under the stars.

About Casa Tua Pizzeria — Renaissance
The Renaissance Marketplace location of Casa Tua opened after the success of the original Arawak Gardens spot on Palm Beach — both run by the Nataf family, second generation now, with brothers Victor, Gregory, and David Nataf carrying forward the family recipe Michel Nataf learned in 1969 in the south of France from a Sicilian Pizza Master.
This downtown Oranjestad location is conveniently located right at Renaissance Marketplace, near the cruise port — making it a popular cruise-day lunch and dinner destination. Unlike the Arawak Gardens location, this one also serves breakfast and lunch, opening at 8 AM. The vibe is “Italian outdoor restaurant the way you’d find in Italy, the South of France, or Spain” — open-air seating, string lights, lively but unpretentious.
The Menu With Prices — Checked November 2026
How we sourced this: prices come from the printed menu as diners photographed it at the table in December 2025 (posted on the restaurant’s Google listing), cross-checked against the dinner menu Casa Tua publishes on casatuaaruba.com. The card says “All prices are in US Dollars”. Where an item was not legible in the December 2025 photos we use the restaurant’s own posted menu and say so. We could not see a service-charge line on the card, so check your bill before you add a tip. Prices move; confirm anything important on the day.
Starters, soups and salads
- Cold starters: Classic Shrimp Cocktail $14, Mozzarella Caprese $16, Avocado and Shrimp Bruschetta $15, Bruschetta la Buffala $12, Vitello Tonnato $19, Charcuterie and Cheese Board $24.
- Warm starters: Mussels and Clams in Garlic Butter $14, Calamari Fritti $14, Escargots à la Bourguignonne $15.
- Carpaccio: Beef Carpaccio della Casa $19, Octopus Carpaccio $19.
- Soups: soup of the day $10, French onion $13, Zuppa del Pescatore $24.
- Salads: Traditional Caesar $10 (add chicken $6 or shrimp $8), Goat Cheese Salad $15, Greek Salad $16, Insalata Casa Tua $17 (grilled marinated chicken, bacon, mozzarella, walnuts), Mediterranean Trio with pita $19 (hummus, babaganoush, tzatziki).

Burrata and Mortadella is $29 on the restaurant’s posted menu; its price was cut off in the December 2025 photo.
- One recent Google review calls the pizzas personal size and the prices “a bit much” for that, so plan on one pizza per person rather than sharing one.
Pasta and the flamed cheese wheel
- Pasta (linguine, penne or fettuccine; gnocchi $3 extra): Alfredo $21 (add chicken $8 or shrimp $12), Carbonara $22, Alla Mozzarella $23, Alla Vodka $23 (add chicken $8 or shrimp $12), Bolognese $24, Amatriciana (spicy) $24, Ravioli ai Quattro Formaggi $25, Alle Vongole $26, Gamberi all’Italiana $32, Del Pescatore $34.

Mains, seafood and kids
- From the December 2025 card: Paella della Casa $26 for one or $44 for two, Lasagna Bolognese al Forno $25, Eggplant alla Parmigiana (vegetarian) $24, 16oz Ossobuco di Vitello $38, Pesce al Cartoccio $29 (the card lists the fish as grouper/pangasius), Shrimp Aglio e Olio $34, Barramundi al Limone $34, catch of the day at market price.
- From the restaurant’s posted menu (not legible in the 2025 photos): Pollo alla Parmigiana $27, 8oz Beef Tenderloin $32, Italian Burger $24, garlic bread $2.
- Kids under 12: $12 for chicken tenders and fries, a margherita pizzetta, pasta Alfredo with chicken or pasta marinara with chicken.
Breakfast, lunch specials and desserts
- Breakfast (this location opens at 8 AM; the Arawak Gardens branch does not serve breakfast): the menu on Casa Tua’s Google listing includes L’Americano (two eggs, toast, pancake, orange juice and coffee or tea), a gluten-free buckwheat pancake filled with ham, Swiss cheese and egg, a Nutella pancake tower and bagels, with smoked salmon or prosciutto as extras. No breakfast prices are published, so ask for the card.
- Lunch specials listed on the same Google menu: soup of the day combo, petite personal pizza, vegan burger, mussels fra diavolo, grilled chicken wrap and a 6oz beef tenderloin. Prices are not published.
- Desserts (restaurant’s posted menu; the same desserts appear on the December 2025 card): Chocolate Mousse $7, Cheesecake $9, Crème Brûlée or Nutella $9, Panna Cotta al Nutella $10, Homemade Tiramisu $11, Profiteroles au Chocolat Chaud $13.50, Flamed Pizza Casa Tua $13.50, two scoops of ice cream with whipped cream $6.
- Drinks: we found no current priced drinks list, so we are not printing drink prices. Reviews mention a happy hour (9 mentions) and the sangria (4).
What a meal here costs
A Margherita della Casa with garlic bread is $19 before drinks and tip. Two people sharing an Insalata Casa Tua and then having a Meat Lovers and a Funghi di Lusso pizza come to $62 before drinks. The paella for two at $44 is the best-value sit-down order on the card. Google’s price band, reported by 43 people, is AWG 20–40 a person (about $11–22); that fits breakfast or a single pizza without drinks, but a full dinner with a drink each runs higher.

What guests are saying
Casa Tua Renaissance holds 4.1 stars from 1,213 Google reviews (checked November 2026). The topics reviewers bring up most are the live music (46 mentions) and the Italian food in general (46), then the paella (20), happy hour (9) and the chicken parmigiana (5). Smaller clusters praise the profiteroles, the seafood pizza and the octopus carpaccio.
The complaints in recent reviews are consistent: service that is slow or indifferent on some nights, a pasta alla vodka one reviewer found disappointing, and an empty room in the low season. Other recent reviewers name friendly servers and a quick, easy lunch, so experiences clearly vary by shift.
Our Verdict
Go for convenience, the paella and the music, not for the best Italian meal on the island. This is the all-day Casa Tua: open from 8 AM to 11 PM every day, in Renaissance Marketplace a short walk from the cruise terminal, which makes it an easy breakfast, a cruise-day lunch or a dinner with live music in the plaza after dark.
- Order the paella. It is the dish reviewers name most after the music, and at $44 for two it is better value than two mains.
- Treat the pizzas as one each. They are thin and personal-size at $17–24, which is fine, but not a pie to split.
- The flamed cheese wheel is the reason to choose this branch over Arawak Gardens. The menu says it is served only here ($25 a person, two minimum).
- Expect variable service. Come early in the evening if you are on a schedule, and leave extra time on a cruise day.
- If you are staying on Palm Beach, the sister restaurant is closer: see our Casa Tua Arawak Gardens menu and review. For the rest of downtown, see our Oranjestad guide and cruise port guide, or compare more options in our best restaurants in Aruba list and the full restaurant directory.
