Madame Janette
Aruba Restaurants
The kitchen staff prides itself on preparing most of the dishes a la minute and it features a specials menu. Steaks, grilled meats from the rotisserie, salmon and sole as well as local fish like mahi mahi and grouper, fresh pasta and a wide choice of appetizers are some of the choices you'll find at Madame Janette's.
Madame Janette was founded April 2, 1999 by Ramon Helgers and Karsten Gesing. Their collaboration resulted in a place which offers fine dining in a casual atmosphere. Ramon is responsible for the exotic fruits, herbs and vegetables you will find in not only our dishes but also in most supermarkets on Aruba. Karsten, a European Master Chef trained in 'old school' traditions creates, with help from his knowledgeable, international oriented staff, tasteful and creative dishes. Their combined worldwide experience give their dishes an original flavor with a touch of Caribbean in them. We call it the Madame Janette experience!
