I was looking for a place to watch the game and have some food and drinks. We were a party of 8 and made last minute reservations. What I found was a cool comfortable place with great food and great service. Everything was great including the ribs appetizer and awesome bang bang shrimp. The smash burgers were fantastic. Really enjoyed eating here, thank you.

We really enjoyed this place; both the food and staff were amazing. This place really offers a lot of value. We tried the Sticky Bourbon Ribs (absolutely delicious), Smash Burger, and Tenderloin Skewer, they were all fantastic. This is a great find and surprisingly great value given the high prices in Aruba for meals.

This was our first visit to this restaurant which has been open at this location since mid-summer. We were told they previously been at a different location on the island. We both had fish and chips, which are made with halibut. They were excellent. Several large screen TVs make it a great place to watch sports. Redeshka was a friendly and attentive server. Mauro, the mgr. also visited our table to make sure we were enjoying our time there. Highly recommend.

This is our 10th year coming to Aruba and we always like to try new restaurants. We are not big fish eaters so finding restaurants that cater to what we like is sometimes difficult to find. There are times we just want a burger or a chicken sandwich or wings. On the Rocks did not disappoint. The food was amazing, the drinks were terrific and the service was excellent. We had the guava spritzer, smash burgers, coleslaw, and house made chips. The owner came to our table multiple times to make sure we were enjoying our experience at the restaurant. He definitely went above and beyond. We were there on a Thursday night and we were able to watch NFL football, which was also a huge plus. Their TV screens are enormous. We highly recommend this restaurant and we will definitely be back next year. They are located in the high-rise area.

The food was excellent, the service was wonderful and the manager was very personable and apologized multiple times about the mixup with our reservations on Sunday, because they are closed on Sunday, but OpenTable allowed us to make a reservation. Highly recommended

Family of 10. Had a great experience with food coming out promptly, really excellent service from the time we walked in, and a clean, fun vibe. Newly opened, yet no kinks, only a great time. Definitely recommend.
