What people say about Lionfish Caribbean

  • It was fresh and lightly fried

    Excellent fish (lionfish) and chips, just like the sign says -- the best in Curacao! It was fresh and lightly fried and tasted great. Tasty dipping sauce on the side. Very well-priced. The staff is friendly and helpful. If we stayed on the island longer I would go back for more many times. Note: We all need to eat as many lionfish as we can before they run other fish species off the reefs.

  • Workshop - amazing experience

    We attended a workshop here where we made lionfish jewelry. It was an amazing experience! The day began with an explanation about the lionfish, after which it was completely dissected and filleted for us. We were lucky, because this lionfish's stomach contained a small fish. After the explanation, we went upstairs and got creative under Charlotte's guidance. We even enjoyed lionfish snacks and drinks during the workshop. The results are definitely impressive, and we concluded our visit with a delicious lunch, naturally featuring lionfish.

  • The best fish tacos he had ever had

    Fantastic food and beautiful jewelry! My husband declared the tacos “the best fish tacos he had ever had”! Definitely worth a stop if you’re visiting Willemstad.
