        <content>i'm going to aruba with my husband and 2 year old.  i've looked at past posts to get some ideas on dinner locations so that i can make reservations prior to our trip.  i plan on making reservations at:

madame janette's
gasparito
yemanji

any thoughts on whether the above are more child-friendly than others.  and do you have any other quality restaurants suggestions that are child friendly.  

we plan on doing early dinners (6/6:30pm) in the hopes to avoid any crowds and/or diners that aren't looking for children at the next table.

thanks in advance.</content>

      <content>the first time my child went to Aruba she was 3. I believe almost all are very child friendly. She went to Gasparita (great after all these years), Driftwood, Buccaneer, El Gaucho (overrated IMHO) and several others. Agreed that early dining is the key for the child's comfort.</content>

      <content>One of the most underrated places is Casa Tua (the one in Arawak Garden).  We love their thin crust pizza but see people eating everything else as well (it is always busy).  It is VERY child friendly.  It is outdoors and there are usually tables of young kids with various parents.  The one downtown is NOT as good IMHO and is not as child friendly. 
(We live in Florida but are Sunbirds - we spend most of the year in Aruba)</content>
