Restaurant

🫤 Nice location was very big, well lit and pretty nice I should say. Located right across the Santiago Monument, perfect venue but somewhat limited. 1. Food was not only expensive for a Dominican Restaurant but also basic and not so tasty. 2. The service was another fail, the servers just about all we...

    Nice location was very big, well lit and pretty nice I should say. Located right across the Santiago Monument, perfect venue but somewhat limited. 1. Food was not only expensive for a Dominican Restaurant but also basic and not so tasty. 2. The service was another fail, the servers just about all were very lackadaisical. 3. THE WORST IS THAT THEY HAVE NO PRESIDENTE! I repeat NO PRESIDENTE BEER!! They only have Quisqueya. SERIOUSLY GUYS!! That was the two stars for me. Anyways I won’t be back for sure!

    walked in....waited to be seated...no one showed up ,,even though there were 6 employees on their phone...we decided to just take a table....waited 10 min. to see if someone would approach us and at least get drinks order....no one ever came....got up and left.....went next door to El Tablon...great service from the time you walk up the steps... La Puerta del Sol should consider a change in management if they decide to stay in business.

    WARNING!!! TOURIST PRICES HERE!!! Ok. First off, we ordered ONE California roll to share. They brought out TWO. We didn't complain. Now let's talk about their sushi rolls. They come SLATHERED in some mustard based sauce. It's too much sauce. You can barely taste the flavor of the sushi. So, I don't recommend getting sushi here. Then, we asked for typical Dominican food; rice, beans, and chicken. They brought us two plates with very small portions of rice, beans, and two small grilled chicken breasts. The flavor of this was nothing to wrote home about; especially for the price. Honestly, you could do better buying the ingredients from a supermarket and cooking this yourself. You'd probably end up with better food. Then on top of that, there was a dead fly under one of my girlfriend's chicken breast. She kindly told the waiter about it, and he did nothing. The service there is terrible. Not because of the fly in her food, but because you have to wave them down for 5 minutes before they notice you need help. Then, when I got the bill, I was really over this place. It came to the equivalent of $54 USD!!!! ($2784 DOP). I left $3,000 pesos and the change for a tip. I'll never come there again and I'll always tell people do not go there.

    Went to this restaurant on 8/17/20 before coming back to the states the same week and the place is amazing right across the street from the beautiful monument. The food was also amazing. Will return hopefully next year 👍🏾

    (Translated by Google) Located at the foot of the Santiago monument, the visit was a bit lackluster due to the pandemic, but it is a place with a lot of atmosphere, usually Santiago.

  • 4/5 Rafael Gutierrez J. 6 years ago on Google
    I love the restaurant and the food. It's in a good location easy to find. Right in front of Monumento a los Héroes de la Restauración. One thing that I don't like, the restaurant has an agreement with a beer company and they only sell one single type of beer.

  • 5/5 Vero L. 3 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Kenneth P. 1 year ago on Google
    Food is great , view is amazing only downfall is people outside of the restaurants don’t let you eat without asking you for money or trying to sell you something. I respect the hustle but let me eat in peace MF!!! 😂

  • 4/5 frank g. 1 year ago on Google
    I went here 4 times for appetizers and drinks, the food was good, the service not so, waiters standing talking amongst themselves, and on their phones, my buddy had to get their attention in order to be served, besides that, its the beer I don't like, Quisqueya, that is the only beer they sell, I found out by the staff that the owners are the same, explains why they only serve their brand, i know they can get more clientele buy having a variety of beers on their menu, other than that, its great place to eat.

  • 2/5 Susan P. 10 months ago on Google
    Food taste was ok but the portions were too small. I órdered calamari which were 6 rings only…talk about food control but thy were good though. Fries looked as if they were the last small pieces of a bag…. Drink wise we had a strawberry margarita which was not good due to the fact it was mixed with 151 and the alcohol taste was over bearing. The lime coquito was ok. The atmosphere was great. Nice vibe. The waiter was not attentive and never came back to ask if we wanted something else. Our bill for the 2 drinks and 2 appetizers was 29. Usd.

    Decent food, a singular choice of beer 🍺 . Nice views of the monument while eating. They need to add some sandwiches to the lunch menu.

  • 3/5 Andy A. 7 months ago on Google
    They only sell Quisqueya beer. They use freshly made rice for the sushi which makes it mushy and gross. The best part was the location but besides that it wasn’t very good
