   The chicken parm isn’t traditional chicken parm had a white a Parmesan sauce. The chicken cordon blu had almost no cheese and had no ham. Oyster sauce was salty on Asian chicken. Chicken masala was good. Service and staff were great. Attentive. Prices were more than reasonable.

   Always a pleasure dining at King Fred! We had the mustard soup and the stuffed ravioli to start… excellent!! Then chicken schnitzel and cordon bleu with the mushroom sauce… simple, delicious classic dishes. Topped off with homemade stroopwaffle ice cream, perfection!! The staff are welcoming and friendly with the bonus of eating in an historic windmill! King Fred’s is a must do when we visit Aruba.

   Our party of 5 arrived an hour ahead of our reservation time hoping they could seat us and they did. Service was top notch. We had the drunken chicken which came in a little stock pot. It was presented and then dished out by the waitress. Rich and flavorful! The schnitzel was crispy and the mushroom gravy was served on the side. The cordon bleu also had a crispy exterior with a nice ham and Gouda cheese filling. The king Fred salad looked a little dull but we were fooled. It was full of walnuts, Gouda cheese, apples and had a very nice dressing. We topped it with chicken which was plentiful. The only disappointment was the vegetables that were served with each meal. Plain mashed potatoes with steamed carrots, green beans and celery root. These were bland and under seasoned. But the chicken was so good we overlooked that. Our star of the evening was the apple pie served with a flavored whipped cream and a stroopwaffle ice cream. Oh it was to die for!! We would highly recommend eating here and will be back on our next visit.

   Located a bit off the beaten path, yet not too far. The taxi ride was only $8 from the Holiday Inn. The restaurant is in a windmill with a bar on top. We had the sea bass and it was amazing. The food came hot after a short wait. The staff was top notch. Nice that reservations can be made! We will go back on our next visit to Aruba.

   Went over for Valentine's dinner, and once again, had a good meal. My wife tried the chicken masala, which she liked. I enjoyed my Asian chicken, which they made without the oyster sauce. The severs were friendly, checked back to make sure things were good, but did auction off the food. Prices are par for the course for a fine dining restaurant on the island, and it's well worth stopping by.

    My husband said it was the best chicken he has ever had in 69 years. Very tender and moist not dry at all. I had the chicken cordon bleu and it likewise was very juicy and the breading was excellent. We can’t forget the apple pie, absolutely the best! One of the owner’s went out of her way to help us out. She was so accommodating and went out of her way to help us! We will be back before we leave to go home.
