Aruba has a great spot inside Metrowalk. It has airconditioned and al fresco dining. Most of night, they have a live band show and most are rather famous. The foods might look expensive but they are reasonably priced. Last but not least, clean restrooms!!
Aruba was just like C&Brewer, it has a live band and the performers were professionals. I think. It was kind of pricey here, but overall it was a great experience!! And I also that time their guitarist was so cute. HAHA!

My friends and I love the Powerhouse band, and this is the main reason we go to Aruba on Friday nights. The food here is decent though a bit pricey, and the dining area can be quite cramped when a popular band is on stage. I highly recommend the Lengua con Champignon, Lengua Estofado, Garlic Chicken, and Hickory Smoked Spareribs. The Buffalo Wings and Gambas are okay, though the portions are somewhat small and the Gambas could use a little more heat. Not too crazy about the pizza and pasta here.
Went there last december to celebrate our deprtment's christmas party. They have a good 90's music playlist. Order bottle of cuervo, well expect that it's quite pricey since you're in a bar.
The bands are good. Cozy ambiance. Nice place to hangout with friends and loveones.. Foods are a lil bit pricey but it tastes good nman.. We'd rather go here because its more private rather than staying outside the bar for couple of drinks which is very crowded..
I can't remember when was the last time my high school friends and I went out to have dinner. If my calculations were correct, the last time was Christmas 2011. I thought we were going to wait for this year's Christmas season to see each other. :)
Anyway, we had dinner in a fancy Japanese restaurant and we were not ready yet to call it a night so we decided to go to Aruba to have a drink while continue our chatting and stuff.
We didn't want to stay inside because there was a live band and we were looking for a much quieter place. Even if there was also a live performance outside, I think the noise was tolerable.
We ordered beers, Mixed Cheese Sticks, and Blueberry Cheesecake. Yes I know what you're thinking. The combination of the food we ordered was unnatural but we didn't go there to drink, get drunk, and party all night. We just wanted to drink a little, eat a little, and chat more.
The Mixed Cheese sticks were delicious. It is not the typical cheese sticks made of lumpia wrapper but it was breaded shaped like fingers with melted cheese. The tomato basil dip was good also but the serving was little.
Surprisingly, the Blueberry Cheesecake tasted good. It was like an ice cream cake. Even if the blueberries tasted too commercialized, we enjoyed it.
The staff were nice. They clean our tables (picking up used tissue papers and getting empty bottles) even if we don't call their attention. I think this is a nice place to hangout once in a while just to chat with friends.
