Chez Mathilde

Known as “the House of Mathilde”, this typical family home is perhaps the only 19th century dwelling in Oranjestad still preserved in its original state. It houses Aruba’s finest French restaurant with an unsurpassed reputation for dining excellence locally as well as abroad; for its fine cuisine, indescribable ambiance and dedicated service. Small romantic dining rooms, tastefully decorated in a luxurious yet relaxing atmosphere, allow for personal attention to each table, while the beautiful garden setting in The Pavilion will remind you of the terraces of Paris. Each dish is carefully prepared to meet with the highest culinary standards, complimented with the finest wine list on the island. Recently Chez Mathilde has been awarded a four diamond rating by the American Automobile Association. Open daily for a total gourmet dining experience; luncheon from 11:30 am to 2:30 pm and dinner from 6 pm. Located at Havenstraat 23 in Oranjestad. Proper attire is requested.
