Aruban Dinner at The Old Cunucu House
For Aruban cooking in Noord, The Old Cunucu House serves creole dishes alongside an international menu. The building is more than 150 years old. You can reserve a table here through The Table Desk, an independent service that confirms each booking in writing.
Keshi yena and creole stews are the signature dishes. Creole plates come with pan bati, a local pancake, and funchi, a cornmeal side. International dishes sit on the same menu for guests who want something else.
Seating is inside the old house or out on the patio. Both suit a quiet dinner for two or a family meal, and the restaurant appears in our romantic and family collections.
When you book, say if you prefer indoor or patio seating. We pass it on as a preference, and the restaurant decides the final table. The meal is paid at the restaurant, and its own cancellation policy is separate from ours.

Questions
Is there a way to reserve The Old Cunucu House in advance?
Yes. Book through The Table Desk with your date, time, an optional backup time and party size, and pay the $20 service fee online. If neither time can be booked, the full fee is refunded.
What Aruban dishes can I order?
Keshi yena and creole stews lead the Aruban side of the menu, served with pan bati and funchi. International dishes are also offered, so mixed tastes at one table are easy to cover.
Is it a romantic choice?
It is in our romantic and family collections. Dinner takes place in a house more than 150 years old. Tables sit inside or on the patio, which gives the evening a sense of island history.
Can I ask for patio seating?
Yes. Write indoor or patio in the seating notes of your booking. It reaches the restaurant as a preference, not a guarantee, and the final table is their decision on the night.
When will I get my confirmation?
We email your confirmation as soon as the restaurant has made your booking. How long that takes depends on the restaurant. If we can't book it, your full $20 is refunded.
