Pelican Nest, Seafood over the Water
Pelican Nest Seafood Grill opened in 1994 on Palm Beach, Aruba, and serves seafood and Caribbean dishes. The building sits entirely over the water, and its Peruvian chef is known for ceviche. The Table Desk, an independent reservation service, books your table and sends your confirmation by email.in writing.
Ceviche leads the menu, made with aji amarillo and sweet potato. Its Peruvian chef is known for ceviche, so it is a natural place to start. Snapper crudo with miso yuzu shows a lighter side. Local fish broth comes with funchi-style polenta, and black grouper arrives with lemon brown butter.
For a shared table, there is whole red snapper with Creole sauce or a seafood tower. A sunset dinner over the water is the signature here. Pelican Nest sits in our sunset and family collections.
Send a preferred time and an optional backup time. If neither can be booked, your $20 service fee is refunded in full. Once we confirm your table in writing, the fee is non-refundable.
