    Great place that seemed to have a good amount of foreign nationals eating here. There’s plenty of options for Vegans, Vegetarians, and Meat Eaters alike. There’s also wifi and seemed to be a good place to get a bit of work done while enjoying a meal!

    Great place for brunch, gets really busy around 11 on Sunday mornings. Service was great and food was very good. The Italian omelet was food as was the BLT egg sandwich. It is a trendy place with brunch costing about US$10 per person. Also very good for dinner, less busy than Sunday brunch and food is very good and servers very attentive. The salmon with shrimp is amazing as is the churrasco.

    This place is really bad, sat down and ordered an orange juice, waited for the waiter to take my order and 20 minutes went by he never came. They charged me 300RD for my orange juice the guy did not even ask why I was leaving with out eating. Just got to Julieta its way better.

    The food here was excellent. The outdoor seating is great. It's very shady and was cool the morning I went even though the sun was out. The restaurant is in a nice part of the city. The staff is really cool and patient I saw this because we spoke very little Spanish yet our waitress was still very helpful with us navigating the menu.

    Quality food is served here and the service is great. Prices are very competitive for the area. There's no parking, but they offer valet service. Located in a exclusive area. Portions could be bigger.

    The food was delicious and the fruit was fresh

    My experience wasn't the greatest as my girlfriend and I were offered seats outside only after the hostess stated there were no seats inside. I noticed there were unoccupied seats inside and she said they were reserved. Not wanting to sit outside in the hot weather, we decided to leave and go to another restaurant and the hostess stopped us then started she would find us seats. Once we were seated inside and noticed things like 1 person seated at a table for 6, the service was great from our server. The food was good also. The mimosa was strong and I recommend it if you visit, but I will not recommend this restaurant especially if seating staff choose to treat dark skinned people differently. Money can be easily spent else where and I will not return here.

    Very nice place to have lunch or brunch. With valet parking

    They have very limited options for vegetarians but I had the wild mushrooms ravioli and they were very tasty. 10/10 I went there for my coworkers birthday party and it was very nice. The lighting, the staff, everything. The prices also weren't that steep despite the appearance. I'd go there again, I loved the strawberry margarita!

    Been here for 1 hour maybe more no one even giving us service. While everyone else that came after us has there meal and drinks. I feel like when we ask it’s a bother. I really don’t like it.

    Ok so the place is nice and the staff are awesome and the food is good, but The Valet parking people one of them stoled my gold chain from the back seat, after speaking with the boss she told me the boss of the valet will give me a call to attend my situation and no one has called me , if you’re going to go there make sure you leave nothing behind, besides that inside the restaurant everyone is cool peoples 🙏🏽

    One of the few upscale bistros in the area that lived up to it's reputation (this is NOT always the case).....seems like they have very well trained cook's....visited a few times and the food was very good ....only con is the waiting times can be a little excessive ....but still 5 stars all the way .....

    The food is great, the service is average

  • 5/5 Emma J. 4 years ago on Google
    Charming, warm and picturesque place to enjoy breakfast, brunch or dinner. It is located in the new area of the city, Piantini, 30 minutes from the Colonial area. It offers good food and drinks, but what sets it apart is its beautiful decoration that integrates nature and calls for a good time. It falls into the category of Restaurant- Bistro, it is casual and of medium high prices.

    A hidden gourmet adventure in the center of Santo Domingo. Shrimp and avocado rissoto is my favorite! I truly recommend it. This restaurant is a great place to meet with close friends or a casual romantic date.

    Walked around town and discovered Loretta's in an inconspicuously located alongside one of the smaller side streets. Ordered the filet Mignon for lunch without any trimmings just as it was on the Menu and loved it. Good food quality and well balanced flavor. Great, cozy and somewhat rustic atmosphere with outdoor garden patio covered and uncovered as well as an indoor area. Friendly service. Quiet, peaceful atmosphere. Very reasonably priced by American standards. My to-go place when I happen to be in the area.

    Went for Mother’s Day brunch. Beautiful atmosphere & decor! Outstanding service. Super chic restaurant but over priced for the quantity and quality of food. Unfortunately I found a hair in my food :( the server was very apologetic, quickly reacted and replaced my meal. The manner in which the issue was handled is enough to give this restaurant another shot, they deserve it.
