The Chef's Table was a fantastic dining experience!! Helmi's kitchen was incredibly cozy and comfortable. Service was top notch! The food was delicious and I will admit my favorite was the lion fish tiradito....amazing!! Wine parings were also perfect! I'm still searching for the Sauvignon Blanc that you served that night!! Can't wait to do it again!!

Great food, nice wines with the dishes, a cozy location. A nice concept, with strangers at the chef’s table. Enjoy the various dishes with local ingredients together. Helmi and her team had a great evening. A super nice experience richer.

Helmi Smeulders’ chef’s table is a must do on Curaçao if you enjoy culinary delights. The level of experience and taste is far above what the restaurants bring locally and can compete with the top chefs in Europe. The price quality is also better than anywhere else with the excellent wine pairing at this level. An evening at Helmi's in her cooking studio is an experience you won't easily forget.

Helmi invites you into her world with an open heart and a confident hand, blending Caribbean ingredients with modern technique in ways that feel both surprising and rooted. The evening unfolds like a story, each course a chapter rich in flavor, color, and texture. From delicate ceviches to bold, smoky mains, every dish carries the signature of someone who knows her craft – and loves her region. The setting is intimate, the atmosphere relaxed, and the service thoughtful without ever being stiff. You feel like a guest, not just a customer welcomed, seen, and truly taken care of. If you’re looking for something beyond the expected – a night that celebrates island cuisine with elegance and honesty – Chef’s Table is a rare gem. Helmi doesn’t just cook food; she tells stories.

Highly recommended: the Chef’s Table at Helmi If you want to eat out especially well and deliciously, you should try the Chef’s Table by Helmi Smeulders. It really is an experience in itself. You sit in the kitchen with her, watch everything happen, and what comes on your plate is just fantastic. The taste is a big 10. The dishes are of more than high quality, made with great love and attention. As far as I'm concerned, it's not unlike restaurants like Brass Boer or other famous chefs. Everything is right: the Flavours, the Presentation and the Mood. It is a relaxing evening where you really enjoy good and very good food. You will find craftsmanship and passion on your plate. Or while an evening you won't soon forget. I say do, if you like good and good food.!!!

A true taste of the Caribbean—like you’ve never had it before.

Wow – what an unforgettable dining experience, full of surprising and refined flavors. We had the Chef's Tasting Menu, starting with a delicious amuse-bouche followed by five beautifully presented courses, all featuring fresh fish and local Caribbean ingredients. The Niçoise salad was absolutely outstanding — the tuna melted in our mouths, it was that fresh! And the mango dessert was the perfect finale of the menu. We also chose the wine pairing, and each glass was perfectly matched to the dishes. The wine and food combinations were truly spot-on. The setting is cozy and intimate. Guests are seated together around a large Chef’s Table, which creates a warm, social, and relaxed atmosphere. The chef personally introduces each course, which makes the experience feel extra special and personal. You’ll discover authentic Caribbean flavors in a creative and thoughtful way. This is a unique culinary experience not to be missed. I can wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking for something truly special on the island. As a bonus: the chef also offers cooking workshops to introduce guests to the rich flavors of Curaçao’s cuisine — an absolute must for food lovers! 🇳🇱 Nederlands: Een avond bij Chef's Table Curaçao is echt een unieke ervaring. Fantastische lokale keuken, persoonlijke aandacht en een heerlijke, knusse sfeer. Door de uitleg van de chef werd het diner extra bijzonder. Wij hebben enorm genoten en raden het iedereen van harte aan! Echt een unieke ervaring op het eiland.

I'd heard of Helmi's dinners before, but I hadn't been before. It always seemed like a great experience and so I got to join the Chefs Table, this month, with a friend, with a won prize. For the evening, tables were set in the kitchen at Helmi. Very cozy. Everything was taken care of, the table set, the welcome, the menu and the nice cold Cava as a welcome drink. Helmi is known for using and refining local ingredients in a creative way. This way, familiar dishes with this local twist become something special. The service was very good and with the dishes were delicious wines. It was a very beautiful evening, beyond my expectations, and definitely recommended if you want to experience a special experience. I'm looking forward to a Dinner in the Field.

We went to the chef's table with our friends who visited us from the USA. The evening was great and the food was excellent. Great explanation and lovely food and wine pairing! Our friends had such a great experience, that they booked a cooking class at the Caribbean chef as well. (Another highlight during their stay in Curacao).
