Wonderful dining experience. Staff were welcoming and courteous. Drinks never got empty. Food was amazing and the view is fantastic. Great atmosphere, fine food, and an all around pleasant evening. Will definitely return. Must have the Mojito.

We'd had cocktails there before (which were fantastic) but this was our first meal. And definitely not the last! Everything was excellent. I had the tuna which was fresh, flavourful and cooked to perfection. The staff is friendly and attentive. We will definitely return!

I ate at this location a year ago and ordered a martini. I didn't get a martini. It was tasty, but not a martini. Later that same trip I went to Rum Runners where I had already met the charming and talented (and internationally award winning) bartender named Kelvin. Actually, I first met him at one of his other jobs at Spice Beach. Anyway, I watched him make a martini at Rum Runners and it was a martini! The real deal. I went back there on this trip and asked if Kelvin was still there. Nope. He had his own place. Umbrella! Just finished dinner there (started with a martini, of course). I expected great drinks, but the food is just as good! Fresh, beautifully seasoned, and every single person on that staff is as charming and delightful as Kelvin. This place is a hidden gem -- part of me wants it to stay that way so I can get a reservation, but Kelvin is such a wonderful human being that I really want his restaurant to be the most popular on the island. I'm torn, because I have serious loyalties to Capriccio across the street -- and love their owners too -- but there are plenty of customers to go around these days and I want Kelvin to achieve that level of acknowledgement because he deserves it. Please try it! Everything about it is a delight!

We had a delicious calamari appetizer, coconut shrimp appetizer and Ahi dinner. Kelvin and Nancy will definitely make you feel welcome along with their kind and friendly wait staff. Great quality food and drinks with beautiful presentation! A gem on Bonaire!

The seafood pasta with white cream sauce is very delicious. And our waiter Zaïr was very helpful and friendly. Ideal for sunset dinner.

The food was great and the service was great. Kelvin is the most talented and best bartender in the world. He made me a passion fruit drink and it is truly a masterpiece. It became my new favorite. Highly recommend this place!

We enjoyed a pleasant meal overlooking the main town pier. I had the mixed seafood grill. My partner had the grilled fish. Both excellent. They serve great cocktails at reasonable prices. Our server, only on the job for two days, did an excellent job. Good food, good location and a great ambience. And reasonable prices. What else do you need?

We had a great experience last night at Umbrella! Making a reservation online was easy. There is reserved parking in front of the restaurant. The servers were friendly and excellent, the drinks were tasty (and strong!), and the food was delicious. I had the glazed salmon, and my companions really enjoyed their vegetable soup and grilled chicken. Recommended!

A very honest chef. Not being happy about the food himself so didn’t want to surf the food and advised to order something else. They could do a bit more about the ambiance price quality was definitely good.

Excellent service with good food. Only issue was that the restaurant is located beside where the container ships unload, so it wasn't the quietest location.

Pleasant Portside DiningThere have been at least two restaurants in the space where Umbrellas is located. The Umbrellas remodel is very attractive making this an enjoyable place to have dinner.The restaurant is located right across from the Bonaire port. We were there when there were not ships in at the port, but I know from dining at nearby restaurants that it can be noisy when containers are being unloaded.The good was excellent and the service was fast and friendly (Bonaire service is usually friendly).There were three of us taking advantage of the Bonaire Culinare fixed price menu. Two of us had steaks, while the other person had salmon. We enjoyed the food and plan to return to sample other items on the menu.
