What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Pika's Corner is lauded for its generous portions and authentic Aruban cuisine, particularly its seafood and skewers. While many praise the friendly service and value for money, some reviews note inconsistencies in food quality and an underwhelming ambiance, suggesting that choosing the right dishes is key to a satisfying experience.
"This meal was all around amazing.
We ordered sirloin steak skewers, and the shrimp skewers. They were both phenomenal. The garlic dipping sauce was amazing. I loved the yukka.
Our waitress was so friendly and attentive.
This is a must!"
Katie Martini
"We were on vacation looking for a local spot to eat and found Pika’s Corner—what a great find! We started with the soup (a We Luv Tripping tradition!), and it was a perfect way to kick off the meal. The red snapper with creole sauce stole the show—perfectly seasoned, fried just right, and tasty sides. The sangria was refreshing, and the service was warm and welcoming. We’d definitely visit again!"

"Pika's was recommend to us from another tourist. We had a positive experience here just didn't find anything that stood out, making this a basic food experience in my opinion. The staff was very kind and friendly. The steak on a skewer was cooked perfectly and tasted delicious. The Barracuda was also perfectly done. The rice, Plantain's & salad were pretty average. Our meal was just about $65 U.S. I would recommend this spot for anyone if your in the immediate area and looking for a quick bite."

They specialize in Aruban cuisine and were always packed when we drove by, so we decided to give it a shot. We sat outside and shared the calco stoba (conch stew) and calco a la parrilla (grilled conch). Both were delicious.

It’s a small local restaurant with great food and very reasonable prices. It’s right next to Wacky Wahoo. I have a food pic but I don’t know how to post it.
