EGO Restaurant Aruba: Chef Roy’s Bold, Casual Take on Elevated Dining
If you’re familiar with Aruba’s chef’s table scene, then Chef Roy needs no introduction. Known for his refined, high-end tasting experiences, Chef Roy has now flipped the script with EGO Restaurant, a brand-new, more casual and approachable concept—without sacrificing flavor, creativity, or execution.
Located right next to Bingo, EGO is already making noise as one of the most exciting new dining spots on the island.

A Different Side of Chef Roy — In the Best Way
EGO feels intentional. It’s relaxed, energetic, and welcoming, but every dish still carries the signature precision you’d expect from a chef of this caliber. Think chef-driven food without the stiffness—a place where you can enjoy incredible cooking without feeling like you’re “at an event.”
This isn’t a chef’s table.
This is Chef Roy unleashed.

The Ramen That Stole the Show
I don’t say this lightly:
The ramen at EGO is the best ramen I’ve ever had in my entire life.
Perfectly balanced broth, deep flavor, and layered complexity that hits from the first sip to the last bite. It’s the kind of dish that makes you pause mid-meal and look around like, “Is anyone else experiencing this right now?”
If ramen is on the menu when you go—order it. No hesitation.

The Steak? Unreal.
Chef Roy is known for cooking an exceptional steak, and EGO is no exception. Rich, perfectly cooked, and deeply flavorful, this is the kind of steak that reminds you why technique and experience matter.
Simple. Clean. Executed flawlessly.
