Fortunately they are only open on weekends, or I would eat their every day. I always get the Steak meal with extra coleslaw, and the meat is unbelievably tender. This is by far the best food on the island.

Best place on the island for good bbq. Cozy place. Staff is very attentive. The one problem is the mosquitos. But after you've experienced the great bbq you'll definitely want to go back.

I had some sort of sampler platter that had ribs, chicken leg, and some peanut chicken kabobs, with fries. Was good food, will make this one of my "must do" stops each time I visit.

My wife and I were told that we had to go to Bobbejan's. We had a mixed meat platter with an extra order of rib's. The chicken satay was excellent and the ribs were very tender. Also, the price was surprisingly affordable. We had a platter with a side rib order and had a couple of beers while we waited... More

After a day of diving we went here for takeout. Grabbed a beer during the wait (10 min) and walked the boulevard. The ribs, chicken and sides werevery tasty. A hmble environment that offers some great food. Just wish they were open 7 days a week :)

A must visit when in Bonaire. This little backyard restaurant is open for lunch and supper Friday through Sunday. Simple, mouth watering BBQ meals that are simply the best value for your dollar.

We picked up food here on our last night on the island to eat on the beach. It was delicious and very well priced. We were even able to have leftovers for breakfast the next morning before traveling home! It is not open every night, so check to see before you go, they have a sign in the water near... More

Another one of the most amazing restaurants on this island. A friend of mine returns to this island for two main reasons...the diving AND Bobbejan's!!!! Simple yet delicious BBQ meat, the best you'll ever have. A must visit

This is a local restaurant with only outdoor seating and fantastic ribs. We are from downtown Chicago so we know a little something about ribs and we ate here twice, the second time we brought people we had met diving with us and they loved it. It's only open on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday otherwise we would have been there... More

You want BBQ ribs - this is the place to go. Clearly a local treasure. Open Fri/Sat/Sun so plan ahead but also offer take out for flexibility. Portions are large so you won't go away hungry and cost is in line. $18.00 for Combo Plate - Ribs, Chicken, slaw, and fries.
