I loved the food, have a great quality. the place it's great. The attention of the waiters were amazing. About the price if quite good, because you receive what you paid for.
The food here is great, with lots of variety and a consistent quality every time I go. The warmth of the staff, even in the weeds, makes this place stand out. I am partial to the outdoor terrace in the the front, it's my favorite spot on the premises. If you go, make sure you order a Tarta de la Viña for dessert. I suggest you reserve it as soon as you sit, they tend to run out fast.
Excellent choice of traditional Spanish food in the city of Santo Domingo. The restaurant is located in a charming Casona from the 50s, which retains its original architecture and is surrounded by beautiful vegetation of centuries-old trees and is located with an excellent visual in front of the square of culture, has outdoor seating and interior. The acces is via Av. Maximo Gomez or George Washington. The Menu offers the classics from the spanish cusine: tapas, paellas, fidua, lamb, seafood... Medium price quality ratio.
The staff were welcoming. The service was great! They really accommodated our 10 month old. One if the waiters saw that the provided high chair was too big for our son, and improvised. He placed a pillow behind our son to support his back. The food was delicious, especially the pistachio salad. Portions are huge and can be easily shared by two people.
Live music on Saturday night. It's an Earth & Sea type of restaurant and one of best representators of the true Spanish cuisine. Everything is excellent here, although if I were you I'd take the Sea food, because I feel that's where they have a stronger menu. The portions are also very generous, so don't think because you're paying about $10-15 bucks for a plate you'll be able to eat it all!
Paella Marinara! I'll be back to try other dishes; the Paella will be hard to beat. Whether you dine inside, out front amongst the trees, or in back by the pool, you'll find something you'll like. If you can't decide, sit at the bar until inspiration hits you!
One of my all time favorite places. Food is one of the best. Very fast service.
A Spanish style restaurant with good food in general but be careful because the prices are very high. I like their two outside areas but badly in both of them smoking is allowed
