Came for the ribeye and honestly it was cooked just right. You can tell the owner actually knows his meat. Churrasco was solid too. Only thing&mdash;smoking inside caught me off guard, kinda lingers on your clothes after. But the steak alone makes me wanna go back.

The lighting in there is what got me. Dim and warm, felt like a little escape. Had the pasta and it was solid, tapas looked good too. Prices are fair for what you get, not crazy expensive. Just a chill place to eat, nothing over the top.

We had the grilled lionfish and the fish in coconut sauce. Both were cooked well, seasoned just right. The homemade pasta in tomato sauce was decent too. Owner suggested those dishes, and he knew what he was talking about. Place was a bit busy, but food came out fine. Pretty good meal overall.

Came for the food, stayed for the chocolate cake. That thing alone is worth the price, which is a bit steep tbh. Service was chill, maybe too chill, took a while to get the check. But the cake made up for it.

Great spot right on the beach. Dorado in butter sauce was solid, prices fair. Service quick enough for a lunch break.

Came here for a quick coffee catch-up with a friend and the cappuccino was solid. Pastry selection is pretty big too. It&rsquo;s chill and not right on the main road, so easy to actually talk. 😊

Stopped in for a quick lunch, didn&#39;t expect much. Got the porcini and truffle risotto, pretty solid. Creamy, lots of mushroom flavor. Coconut mojito was different, never had one before. Place is right across from the beach, so that&#39;s a plus. Service was fast, got my food quick. Good spot for a bite if you&#39;re in the area.

Solid pasta spot right on the beachfront. Had the tagliatelle and it was cooked just right. Service was good, not hovering. Prices fair for what you get. Nothing fancy but it hit the spot after a day in the sun.

Pizza was solid, thin crust done right. Service kept it quick, no fuss. Beachfront spot makes it easy to grab a slice and go.

Came here with a big group and honestly they handled it really well. Food came out quick, everything was hot, and nobody had to wait around for their plate. We were a little loud but they didn&rsquo;t seem to mind. Solid spot if you&rsquo;re with a bunch of people.

The croque madame was solid, and those tostones? Best I&rsquo;ve had in the DR so far. Passion fruit juice on the side made it even better.

The seafood soup here is seriously good. Tastes like they actually use fresh stuff, not those bouillon cubes you get everywhere else. My husband got a burger and he was happy with it too. Chef definitely knows what they&#39;re doing with seafood. Good spot if you&#39;re craving something simple but done right.

Ham egg and cheese sandwich was solid. Nothing fancy but hit the spot. Fresh coconut water is the real deal though. They take cards too which helps. Good spot for a quick bite.

The tortelloni with shrimp was so fresh, easily the best thing I ordered. Espresso hit the spot too, probably the strongest one I had on the island.

The empanadas here are the best I&rsquo;ve had in the DR, no question. The ceviche was super fresh, local fish. That&rsquo;s what I came for and it didn&rsquo;t disappoint. The family running the place is nice, but honestly I just care about the food. It&rsquo;s solid.

The beachfront spot is hard to beat&mdash;I grabbed the local seafood and it was fresh. Chill bar vibe, easy to lose track of time there.
