I have just returned from my first visit to Bonaire. I had the wonderful experience that most of you readers and writers have reported. I feel uncomfortable reporting a "full" trip report as my buddy and I are really novice divers, and although our experience was really fantastic, I lack good photos (my new little dive camera was usually floating towards home more reliably than my compass).I am an avid cook and host and do feel that I can comment on our dining experiences.Our evening meals for two were in the $65 to $85 range (Richard's a bit more) but we order appetizers, often specials...and a few wines or beers each... I thought that eating out in Bonaire was really reasonable...

Ahhh, you have said it so well, great food, great service, reasonable, all in a wonderful setting. The reason we travel! We have a trip planned this September for two weeks and will eat out every night. Thank you for taking the time to post your reviews. Must check out Lighthouse...

I agree about Mona Lisa. It is wonderful. So was Cappricio's. Bonaire is not at a loss for good restaurants.

The Lighthouse is a MUST! The seared Tuna is to die for. Our First Trip to Bonaire spent 2 weeks 7/9 -7/23. Ate at the Lighthouse our second night on the Island and again our last night on the Island.Thought it was the absolute best of all the places we ate, and not to mention Will & Sue's wonderful hospitality. Other Great places, Its Raining Fishes, Casablanca (Great Steak, if you need a break from fish), Mangos, The Lost Penguin just mention a few. Bonaire is not lacking for great food. We eat in San Francisco often....never had Tuna as perfect as I had at The Lighthouse!! Only been home a week...ready to go back!
