About Catch Restaurant Aruba
The Catch dining room balances modern minimalism with warm hospitality — clean lines, good lighting, comfortable spacing between tables, and an open feel without losing intimacy. The kitchen runs a seafood-forward menu where the catch of the day is genuinely fresh and prepared in multiple styles based on what came in that morning. The cocktail program is unique and well-built — bartender William is repeatedly named in reviews. Reservations recommended for weekends. Located in King Plaza shopping center, ~10 minutes from Palm Beach and walking distance from downtown Oranjestad.
Signature dishes & menu highlights
The Catch Trio is the must-order — three preparations of fresh-caught fish, perfectly cooked, generous portions. The Sashimi Shooters are the signature appetizer and the most-Instagrammed dish — described as ‘ridiculous good’ in reviews. The Catch of the Day rotates daily based on what’s in. The Lamb Chops are the non-seafood standout. For shareable starts, the Watermelon Salad and Ceviche earn specific praise. Cocktails are unique and worth ordering through — ask William for a recommendation. Live entertainment is occasionally featured during dinner service.

What guests are saying
Reviewers consistently call Catch ‘the biggest WOW we had after a week in Palm Beach’ and praise both the food and the staff. Server William (also bartender) gets repeat shoutouts. The atmosphere is described as modern yet inviting — not stuffy formal. Pricing sits in the moderate-to-upscale tier ($35–$60 USD per entrée). Some reviewers note service can run slow during peak hours and the menu sometimes runs out of items late evening — go earlier in the seating window for full menu availability. Reservations recommended for weekends. Closed Tuesdays.
