This family run restaurant offers you a great gastronomic experience at an affordable price. Add a beautiful view and voilà you are another happy customer. But you better make a reservation otherwise you probably will not get a table due to the popularity of this restaurant.

We were staying in Willemstad on our vacation in Curacao and always ended up roaming the city for a place to eat. It so happened that we walked into the old fortress (which, as it turned out, was the place where all the Americans were hanging out) and found the Steak & Ribs. We walked in without reservation around 7pm... More

Was in town for a week and this was the one place we ate at twice! The service wasn't quite up to par as in the attitude of the server we had the second time but the food was amazing. Both the steaks and the sea food were very tasty. Even the kids meal has a great big steak on... More

We ate dinner here on the advice of a local. The steaks were prepared perfectly but the service was very slow. The prices were a bit on the high side but the view overlooking the channel was excellent. Some tables were behind plastic for protection from the wind.

Delightfully simple surf and turf! Not for vegetarians, but everyone else will probably fall asleep after a tasty seafood dish or a well seasoned and succulent piece of meat combined with the wonderful sea breeze ! Reservations are a good idea considering the crowd!! The wine list is basic, the service a bit slow , but super friendly !!!

The name of this restaurant makes you think that this is a typical barbecue joint, but it is far from that. Steak and Ribs is on an upper level of the Riffort. We had reservations and were seated at the edge of the wall overlooking part of the fort and the ocean. It was a lovely night with breezes and... More

A good steak had about two cups of sauce over it which really obscured it. Dinner for two adults and a child was about $165 with tax and tip.

We went to this restaurant on the recommendation of a local. The good: We had...surprise...steak and ribs. The food was very flavorful and tender. The little cheese arepa appetizers were very good and something we had not tried before. The bad: The service was atrocious. We got there and were greeted by no one. When my wife asked someone, who... More

The grilled snapper and mixed grill trio were excellent. The food was very good, ok atmosphere and slow unattentive staff.
