On island and tried this place for the first time, hubby had tried it last November when I was out with friends and told me it was the best fish he had that trip. So, this trip, he got me to go there and we were greeted right away, seated and we both ordered two fish dishes, both wahoo, but each one prepared with a different sauce. Hubby's had a red lobster sauce, asparagus, with a bit of kick to it, and mine was with a white wine, some cheeses and a bit milder than his. Both were served with perfectly cooked vegetables, carrots, brocolli, zucchinni and some other ones I have no idea, but were good. We bot had sides of fried plantations. Yummy! Each dinner was $20US, very reasonable. Been there twice this trip already, took his parents there and again, it was very good. Service was one of the best on island so far.

Also had great food here. Mixed seafood grill for 2, and another time brochette grill. Very good and reasonable.

Where is it?

I love Plazita Limena; it's one of my must-eat-at places every time I go to Bonaire! Their ceviche is awesome.

They are across the street from Warung Louise, just slightly more south.

they also have a daily Peruvian special..Last time I have a delicious yellow bean dish. It is a great spot to just to be able to sit and relax in the garden.

We were there 6 months ago & I had their cerviche which I don't normally order. It was delicious!

Vince, I never had cerviche, exactly, what is that, curious, as I might try that next time there!

Their style of ceviche has corn, potato and lots of onions. I liked the fish. Tender and piquante...their Peruvian pumpkin and shrimp is delish. Service can be slow at times but is quite friendly.

Ann introduced me to this place and I LOVE IT!!! I took Wes there and he loved it too. I cannot wait to go back!

Hi Debbie..Cerviche is any type of seafood fish/shrimp/scallops which is "cooked" not using heat but an acid based juice; lemon,lime, orange etc. (Any type of citric acid base to it). It usually has a spice component to it also like jalapeno peppers. I had it as an appetizer & it was delicious. Can't remember exactly what was in it, except it was very good!

Hi, On Island, and would love to try this place. Can you give me the location? Best regards.

It's on the main road in town by the shopping area. If you know where it turns into a one way street to go through the shopping area, at the beginning of that area, look to the right and you will find it. Sorry that I can't give better directions. Hopefully someone else will chime in. Please do try to find it. It is amazing!

plazita limena is located on the kaya grandi - between Le Flamboyant (french restaurant) and the tourist information building, opposite Warung Louise. The owners are Zaida and Juan.
for reservation call 717 7667.

One of our favourite places too, huge flavours and portions. Their fish diablo sauce dish is awesome.

I'm also a fan of Plazita Limena. The food is excellent, the portions generous and the people very friendly, and the price is right!

Thanks for the info. I took your advice on the Cerviche, I had scallop cerviche ( with 4 glasses of H20 , and mixed catch of the day grill for 2. The portions were big, with amazing flavors. Mussels, wahoo, shrimp heads on, scallops, with mixed vegetables, fried bananas and fries as a side.
Definitely a repeat stop. Thanks again.

I can't wait to return next week..
ceviche & cerveza for me; por favor. (sounds like it goes together)

Hey Vince, you will be on the same plane as my son will be on his way to join us!

Hi Deb..Well I'm sure then you & Greg are both looking forward to it's arrival! I believe the flight is completely booked.

We have company coming down in stages for our weeks 2 & 3 so I guess we'll be a fixture at the Flamingo Airport as well at 05:30. If your son recognizes me by my photo, tell him to introduce himself.

I thought the packing would stop once we left all our dive gear and some clothes down there...wrong!

Can anyone tell me what days/hours Plazita Limena is open? Thanks.

they are open from monday til saturday 10 am til 3pm and from 5pm to 10/ 10.30 pm

Hi Silvie....we miss you..

.....and I miss you too...... say hello to Zaida and Juan for me.

Well we ate there last evening.For an appetizer the mixed ceviche & cerveza (Bright) was delicious. Nina had the octopus & bacon salad together with both of us sharing the seafood mixed grill..excellent and the price was reasonable.

I ate there last week and loved it. The appetizer was terrific: a shrimp and potato salad over a big wedge of avocado. And we both got the wahoo for dinner. It was a fabulous dinner for our last night (*sniff*). Can't wait to go back! Counting down until December...

We ate there twice last week. The ceviche de pescado is still excellent. I had a fish dish for my main one night, and shrimp the next time. I could eat there all week! One of our group had the steak and said it was excellent. The portions are large, so you won't ever go hungry. Some of the guys in our group had enough leftovers for lunch the next day.

we ate there last night. food was good, service was slow (30 minutes till they took a drink order and another 15 to get the drinks). we'll give it another chance next trip.

Coming to town tomorrow and planning on eating here. What are the can't miss items on the menu??

Jeremy,

I suggest as starter the Mix Ceviche or fish Ceviche, although the soups are delishious too and as a main course pescado a lo macho, say hello to the owner Zaida for me, have a great vacation!

was there yesterday and again amazed by the food and the variety of the menue. The Mix Ceviche is outstanding for sure!! And also everything else is to die for. And the people there are so friendly and the location in their backyard is beautiful! Great place to be and eat.
