    I loved the food and ambience so much that I went TWICE in my 10 day trip. Best quality and taste I found in all of Punta Cana. My hubby said the cocktails were amazing too

    Came back again for dinner this time and was completely blown away in all aspects. We had Jose as our server again and he was perfect and went above and beyond. Our food was amazing. Any time I’m in town I will be here again. Can’t say enough about the entire experience. All the staff was very friendly.

    Great restaurant, friendly staff, food is very tasty, drinks and food were served quickly after ordering. The chicken honey salad is great as a light meal btw! Beers are nice and cold, coffee is also pretty good here. Been here multiple times and I’ll be back again.

    This place has great food and very good prices! We tried their mofonguitos with pork belly and the picaña, both of which were really good! Felt like a Peruvian fusion type of place. Great service!

    Delicious food, my burger was one of the best I've ever had, well seasoned meat, not too dry, served with crispy fries 😊 Chicken baos were also very tasty. Great Angus steak. Very good drinks. Friendly and attentive staff. Definitely a place worth visiting here.

    Had a wonderful BBQ Mixed Grill Platter for two which included smoked ribs, roasted bacon, roasted chicken, sausages, and pulled pork. Also included was a small portion of fries and coleslaw. The meat was very tender and delicious. The restaurant was quite busy, even on a Tuesday evening. The staff were friendly and helpful. We wanted a table on the outside deck, but none were available, so we were seated inside for a few minutes until a table was available outside. There were many interesting items on the menu. The Food is very good as is the service. Definitely recommended.

    This place was SO TASTY and one of my favorite restaurants in Punta Cana. My friends and I were all very satisfied with our orders. I ordered the Mongolian beef and a burger with pulled pork on it. I also ordered a chicken sandwich to take home (it was okay, but not my favorite). The drinks were tasty as well. I had two Moscow Mules and they came out pretty quickly.

    This place is absolutely top notch. Within the first little while of receiving our food the manager was out twice. Once to inform us our servers were changing and once to see how we liked our food. The servers themselves were absolutely pleasant and extremely attentive. If you've spent any time in the Dominican you probably know service is lacking. Not here though. Over the top service, I cannot say enough about them all. The food, of course, is incredible. We had the octopus, wings and grill platter. I took photos but we dove into the octopus and wings so fast they are partially eaten haha. So that is not how they come out, just so everyone is aware.

    Fantastic food and an even better wait staff! Our waiter Ramon gave us excellent service! He checked on us multiple times while we were eating even though he was waiting on a dozen other tables. The menu here is simple and elegant. I went with Ramon's suggestions for a drink and my entree (fish of the day!) and both were outstanding! Honestly when I walked in with 4 teenagers I thought I would get mainly ignored but the exact opposite happened! Two of the teenagers ordered the BBQ Tray for two and wow!! All of the meats on the platter were amazing! The smoky bacon and the pulled pork were outstanding!!

    Food was really good. It’s a nicer spot for dining with not terrible prices. Super nice ambience! I ordered a fresh strawberry juice, ceviche, spinach dip, and shrimp pasta! Everything was great. Definitely recommend checking this spot out! Live music Thursdays.

    This restaurant was a great experience. The spicy chicken wings was over the top. The BBQ ribs just wow i have never tasted a BBQ ribs so good. When it comes to the cocktail i ordered the drink team and shango, that was amazing. Thanks Lucia the waitress for her wonderful service.

  • 4/5 Dionys Del r. 5 months ago on Google
    The food is okay but for the price vs the amount I was expecting a salad on the side or maybe bread however service is excellent thank you to Ramon our server, the ambience is nice and pleasant Thursdays night there is live band not sure the rest of the week. I will come back.

  • 5/5 Erica C. 7 months ago on Google
    I lovedddd this place, downtown punta canta.. the service was amazing , the food was amazing and the portions was amazing, we stayed in a resort but drove downtown twice to eat here 🔥

  • 5/5 Pam 8 months ago on Google
    Absolutely delicious foods and drinks. Teenage pallet approved. I’m convinced everything on the menu is delicious. I will make this a go to place from now on. The staff is also very attentive and friendly.

  • 3/5 T H. 9 months ago on Google
    I give this place 3 1/2 stars. Service and atmosphere are really nice but the chicken on my chicken baos was a little too crispy like they left it in the fryer longer then it was supposed to and the octopus dish was just okay.

  • 5/5 greg c. 9 months ago on Google
    First let me begin by saying, this place is absolutely delicious! I ordered the Taco De Chicharrón and I almost decided to do three of the same order but my friend encouraged me to try some of their other choices from the menu. We decided to share everything. The other two choices were Pasta Rustica and their Short Rib 96 Horas. Damn the later of the two was really yummy! If anyone is in Punta Cana, I 200% encourage this place for one night to dine!!!! You won't regret it!

  • 5/5 Susan K. 9 months ago on Google
    This was by far my family's favorite restaurant in Punta Cana. Excellent service, excellent value, delicious cocktails, and dessert, including mocktails for our tween daughter. The Mongolian beef, slow cooked pork, the ceviche, and the lychee martini were outstanding. The Macchu Picchu is also strong and quite the show stopper. Definitely try this place.

  • 5/5 Keegan P. 4 months ago on Google
    One of the best restaurants to stop at in Los Corales, Punta Cana. My family devoured the Carnivora burger multiple times throughout our stay. Can't go wrong with a dinner here!

  • 5/5 Evan S. 5 months ago on Google
    Great food, drinks, and service. Although a bit expensive compared to other establishments nearby. I had the Mongolian beef, would recommend that meal. Good, Good, Good. Keep the happy customers rollin in!

  • 5/5 Ian R. 11 months ago on Google
    This place is a real gem. Wish we'd discovered it earlier on in our holiday. The quality and taste of the food was superb, especially the chicken bao and surf and turf. Cocktails reasonably priced. Service (Ramon) was very professional and attentive. Highly recommended.

  • 5/5 Tony B. 10 months ago on Google
    Yes, it's a bit more expensive than some other places, but it's a WIN when you appreciate a smile when you arrive, friendly service, properly prepared and delicious food with a clean, modern atmosphere. The chicken wings left me wanting more, chef's risotto with prawns was delicate and full of flavor, 4 small shrimp tacos (2-3 bites ea) were messy and mouthwatering 😁. If you are in the area, treat yourself to La Bruja BBQ in Bavaro

  • 5/5 Dagmar K. 1 year ago on Google
    Very pleasant environment and great restaurant. Our service was great and fun. Our daughter's drink looked like Mickey Mouse. It was very kind. The food was great. We enjoyed it here. Thank you.

  • 5/5 Matt S. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing Nachos and perfect Bloody Caesars, the mains were tasty but the sauces a bit on the sweet side (made for the American palate). Not cheap but in line with what you get around here. Will return. Edit: Returned and the Caesars weren't as good, but the food was even better. Worth it.

  • 5/5 Qiyanna Nai'a L. 1 year ago on Google
    This was our favorite restaurant in the Punta Cana area hands down!! We looved all of the fusion cuisine options from different countries, which is more unique, and the food was excellent, complete w/ live music at night and a beautiful ambiance with outdoor and indoor seating, as this is the spot to be in the area! Service was really great with everyone being so friendly, especially our waiter Mario who we had a great time with and kept us laughing, and our waitress Rosa who was very sweet as well!

  • 5/5 Krasimira V. 1 year ago on Google
    Best pina colada ever and in general very nice selection of cocktails. Food is absolutely delish. I wish we found that place earlier in our trip.

  • 5/5 Mar C. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing ambiance and service! We had a carrot margarita and regular margaritas, they were yummy. The milanesa with fettuccini was just the best I have ever had. I will definitely come back.

  • 5/5 Jay W. 2 years ago on Google
    We came here specifically to try the 96hr short rib. It did not disappoint! We had short rib croquets and hot wings as a starter which were excellent. We then shared the short rib which just fell off the bone. Cocktails were also very good. Service was quick and very friendly/ helpful. Highly recommended. (just an FYI we asked for the sauce on the side which I assume would normally be on the wings)

  • 5/5 Vu D. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice atmosphere, quick attentive service. Small portions, expensive, good quality. They have live music here sometimes. You can follow my travel tips on YouTube @ iVuDang

  • 5/5 Cara K. 2 years ago on Google
    Best place in Bavaro! Seriously not a bad meal or drink. After sampling locations all week they have the best fish tacos and Pina coladas. Worth the visit for multiple meals!

  • 5/5 asap j. 2 years ago on Google
    We decided to try this place and we are glad we did. The drinks were really good. My wife stated that she felt these were some of the best fish tacos she has ever had. Ceviche was very very good...then we capped it off with a brownie dessert..wow..really good food..and really good service. We will go back.

  • 5/5 The Puppy A. 2 years ago on Google
    American Atmosphere, American style BBQ Foods, I would compare it to Buffalo Wild Wings. This was the only restaurant in Punta Cana my American taste buds felt at home! So if you get bored of the local food and need a taste of back home absolutely go here.

  • 5/5 Amanda M. 2 years ago on Google
    Beautiful restaurant, delicious food, and awesome staff! Definitely recommend eating here if you're in Bavaro. Korean sandwich, fish tacos, Vietnam chicken, and fried shrimp.

  • 5/5 Julio M. D. 2 years ago on Google
    Excellent pub.. to share with friends and family. Food wise is a great experience great food flavors. Very good service. A most visit place while in Bavaro !!!

  • 5/5 Joyce E. 3 years ago on Google
    Beautiful ambiance— light, airy, and cozy; just right for any occasion, romantic or otherwise. The pork tenderloin was delightfully delicate, and the “Maldito Gordo” burger was wonderfully seasoned. The burger was enough to share, while the pork left you wanting more. Definitely worth the trip.

  • 5/5 Brendan Thomas F. 2 years ago on Google
    Great drinks at great prices! The attention is fantastic and the bar is well decorated.

  • 5/5 Chantal S. 2 years ago on Google
    A delight in every single way, Daniel was our waiter and he made it very special

  • 3/5 Jay J B. 2 years ago on Google
    The food is great some days and the next totally different. If you are English speaking, check your bill for overcharging. It happened to me regularly. Best Wings in Town.

😠 This place has been around for a while. I would know because I have been coming since I was a child. However, the quality of the food has gone way down.
