Tatami Sushi Bar
124 L.G. Smith BoulevardI would say one of the best sushi in Aruba. However, they have non-sushi dishes as well! Also walking distance.
This is a buffet place, but it has an open kitchen next to the buffet that keeps resupplying. Note, do not go at about 2pm, preferably between 12-1pm. At 2 some of the food has sat a bit too long.
