Red Parrot
About
Red Parrot is the upscale dining option inside the Tamarijn resort on Palm Beach, and you need a reservation. It's positioned as the property's fine-dining answer — American and seafood — which explains the four-dollar-sign pricing and the adults-only setup. The #256 ranking among Aruba restaurants puts it in the middle of the pack, and the subratings reflect that: service scores highest at 4.3, atmosphere sits at 4.1, but food and value both land at 3.9. That gap between service delivery and kitchen execution is worth noting if you're weighing resort dining against off-property options. The room skews formal for Aruba standards, which some guests appreciate after days of beachwear and buffets. If you're staying at Tamarijn and want a sit-down meal without leaving the property, it solves that problem. Just set expectations accordingly — you're paying resort prices for resort convenience.

Palm Beach●●●○© Management via TripAdvisorGianni's Ristorante Italiano
Gianni's sits on the hotel strip in Palm Beach, an upscale Italian spot serving Neapolitan and Sicilian dishes. The #22 ranking among 155 Palm Beach restaurants puts it solidly mid-pack, and the ratings reflect that: 4.4 for food, 4.5 for atmosphere, 4.0 for value. It's a convenient walk from the high-rise hotels, takes reservations, and handles families without fuss. The upside is accessibility — if you're staying on Palm Beach and want Italian without getting in a car, it's there. The trade-off is that you're paying upper-mid pricing for food that doesn't always land as authentic. The atmosphere scores higher than the cooking, which tells you something about the experience. If you're traveling with kids who eat pasta and you need outdoor seating near your hotel, it works. If you're chasing the best Italian on the island or want your money to stretch further, you'll find stronger options in Savaneta or Eagle Beach.
Palm Beach●●●○© Management via TripAdvisorAzia Restaurant & Lounge
Azia sits on J.E. Irausquin Boulevard in Palm Beach, across from the Hilton, and it's been holding the #12 spot among 155 restaurants in the area with nearly 3,000 reviews. The menu runs Asian fusion and sushi, executed at an upscale level without tipping into formal—atmosphere scores a 4.8, which tracks with the lounge setup. Food and service both land at 4.7, so the kitchen and floor staff are moving in step. The price tier falls at mid-to-upper range, and the value subrating of 4.5 suggests people think it's fair for what you get. It's also kid-friendly, which isn't always a given at this caliber in Palm Beach. Reservations aren't required, but with numbers like these, calling ahead on a high-season weekend would be the smarter play.
Palm Beach●●●○© Q3638MNtracyh via TripAdvisorCalabria Trattoria
Calabria sits in the Metro Mall complex on Palm Beach, which isn't the setting you'd expect for the #3 restaurant in the area. The draw is straightforward: Italian food prepared the way travelers say it should be, without the upscale dress code or the markup. The 4.9 on food isn't common at this price tier, and the subratings hold across service and value, which explains the ranking among 155 competitors. The kitchen sticks to Italian and pizza, and regulars mention authenticity more than ambiance — this is casual island dining, not a date spot. Families show up. Groups show up. The vibe works if you care more about what's on the plate than what's on the walls. One practical note: at least one diner reported a service fee added to the bill despite the menu stating otherwise, so check the total before you settle up. Reservations help.
