Ask any taxi driver in Aruba where to go for a good, unpretentious meal and Wacky Wahoo’s will come up. Arguably the island’s most visited restaurant — a lively bar and grill near Palm Beach serving massive portions, ice-cold drinks, and an atmosphere that makes you stay for another round.

What to Order
The menu is broad: burgers, ribs, wings, fresh fish, nachos, and local Aruban dishes side by side. The burgers are excellent. The fish tacos are always fresh. The portions are enormous. Cold Balashi, rum punches, and a solid cocktail list back it all up.
The Atmosphere
The patio fills fast, especially weekends. Families, couples, groups — everyone’s welcome. You’ll end up staying longer than planned. Happy hour starts early and the energy builds through the evening.
