3 ReviewsGloria (the guide) asked us if we wanted to shop, and I said no, so we got back into the car and drove to a restaurant called El Conusco. She said this is where all the tours go for lunch. It is well...
2 ReviewsI don't know how to classify this restaurant, as it is meant to be like a bit of Spain in the capital of the Dominican Republic. The restaurant is in a historic and fitting setting - the Plaza España,...

all local restaurants: Restaurants Las Terrenas (Overview)
by MichaelFalk1969
I won`t write a review on individual restaurants, as you are spoiled by choice anyway here, and I never left one without a yummy feeling in my stomach. Instead, a short summary on each place. As a rule of thump, eating out wasn`t as cheap as I expected but the cocktails were a real bargain!- Tres Caravelas: best experience. friendliest service, nice athmosphere, "casual fine dining"- Cabana Beach Bar: slighly more expensive, fine dining experience - Mojitos: great cocktails- Hotel-Restaurant Los Pinos: cocktails OK, great starter platters- Pizza Coco: best Pizza in Las Terrenas - Helado: best ice cream, but rather for take-away than sit-down- Barrio Latino: OK, annoying souvenir salesmen

Hexenkessel in Cabarete: Great food at a great price
by ArenJo
First of all I must say Cabarete is a very cute little tourist town. There are spots here to check email, rent a moped, and many restaurants and shops. Definitely a good place to stop by if you are near there. The waitress didn't speak English, but they do have an English menu. And for a tourist spot the prices were good.
The cheeseburger was delicious.
Provocon 4to: Great chicken!
by ArenJo
Many tourists eat here since it isn't too far from the Sun Village resort. The food is great and very cheap as well.By the way, if you like chicken breast like me, in Spanish you ask for "bechuga de pollo." Thought I might help someone else avoid the embarrassment I had in asking for the part of the chicken I wanted. By the way, if you were wondering, the little villages nearby may look a little shady but I have made many friends there. The people have been extremely friendly to me. And the children LOVE it if you bring them some toys (but expect a crowd if you hand even one out).

Unknown: Whole Fish and Limes
by clhomme
One of our days in the DR was spent driving our rental car around the south east. We ended up by mistake in Boca de Yuma on the East coast. Boca is a small town facing a tributary which empties into the Atlantic. There are a number of restaurants along the water's edge, easily 100 feet up on rocky cliffs, waves crashing below. We were there in May, and were the only people dining. The waitress brought out a number of large fish for us to choose from, which was then fried and served with fries and a bowl of lemons. I can't recommend this enough - eating fried fish in an empty restaurant on the coast. All for around $5 - that included our beer.Just past the restaurant is a small beach with numerous old but beautiful boats. For around $10 someone will row you into the tributary to see wildlife. Pleasant, fun and relaxing.I get the impression the all-inclusives stop here, so if there's a bus...

Many: Creolla
by melosh
Although there is some variation between different countries, the general meaning of 'criolla' is people of European ancestry born in the Americas. When used in reference to food it means food of the colonia times often combining native ingredients with the style of European kitchens and foods introduced from outside the Americas.This is generally a solid "meat and potatoes" type of meal but with beans and rice. The term is not applied to pastas or other foods of a purer European origin or Asian origin.
Pork, beef or fish ala criolla. You can expect a red tomato based "sauce" kind of like 'pico de gallo' of Mexico.
unexpensive seafood
by btrz
There is a reaturant on the sea shore, very popular that serves cheap and quite large 'mariscadas' . Seafood in warm waters is completely different from the one from cold waters, that is the best and the most expensive as you could eat in our country. But it was good to eat this always delicious food.
Cafe at Hotel Penalba: Try a local drink
by Nikkorman
Off the main drag is Hotel Penalba, a popular hotel and cafe with locals and tourists. They have a variety of food selections, from Dominican to chinese. Affordable and easy to read menu.Their local beer, called "Presidente" is the Dominican version of Budweiser, popular with the locals. Personally, I like their Cappuccino.The ambience is worth the visit. The staff are friendly and its a prime spot to watch the local traffic walk by.
