The best French cuisine restaurants Dominican Republic

Stefan welcomes you to this typically French restaurant. A real bistro as we like them, for a change from Caribbean dishes and a taste of home. On the wall, a fresco alludes to Montmartre, a nostalgic wink from the tropics. The main French specialties are featured (boeuf bourguignon, calamari à la provençale, onion soup...), as well as typical regional dishes. The main speciality is baked steak with Tofailles potatoes from the Vosges. Excellent wine list.

Located in the center of the Paseo de la Costanera, Le Bistro has established itself as the weekly rendezvous for expatriates and the canteen for many tourists. Christian and Cécile, originally from France, offer bistronomic dishes at affordable prices. The menu changes daily according to what's available in season, and is accompanied by a fine selection of wines. An innovative and refreshing menu. You can go there with your eyes closed!

Stéphane welcomes you from morning to night at the Estrella. Start with the delicious continental breakfast or the typical french breakfast, as greedy as you like... The bread is homemade in the adjacent bakery, as well as the croissants and pains au chocolat, a treat to rediscover the taste of the French bakery. For the meals, you will be able to savour fresh products under the typical Dominican straw hut in a relaxed and good atmosphere. This restaurant remains a sure address of the city.

You will feel at home in this trendy restaurant which also offers the best cocktails in Las Terrenas. Bruno, a native of Brussels with many past lives, will welcome you with a smile. The speciality of the house is the meat, certified Black Angus and cooked on a wood fire. Everything on the menu is excellent, from the Thai beef salad to the sea bream ceviche, not forgetting the sea cazuela with beurre blanc... Special mention for the chef's chocolate mousse! An excellent address.

As everywhere in Dominicus, Italian specialities are on the menu, good pizzas well made, pasta dishes... Also worth mentioning are the very successful meat dishes, but also lobsters grilled on the grill, crab linguini or a delicious fresh fish carpaccio! Copious and good, we also let ourselves be tempted by the large terrace which spreads out under its straw hut. Add to this a few good bottles of wine, honest prices and a warm and smiling welcome, and you've got it!

Set on the beach, this restaurant has a classy and intimate atmosphere and offers quality Italian food after the glass of prosecco served as an aperitif: a cocktail of prawns flambéed in cognac, seafood ravioli and fresh pasta with organic Italian ingredients. From 6:30 pm, part of the restaurant becomes a beach club and hosts many events during the season. We recommend the chinola ceviche, the squid ink tagliatelle or the lobster tagliatelle. A sure value!

Tex-mex, pizzas, grills, Dominican and international specialties make up the menu of this adorable hut, protected from the people who pass by, and with a friendly service. You can enjoy sitting at one of the tables on the Captain Bailee's large terrace and quench your thirst with a cold drink before moving on to the main course. From Monday to Saturday, a Dominican buffet is served at lunchtime . An excellent value for money for a tasty time.

Run by two sisters, the establishment offers typical Dominican cuisine. In a family atmosphere, you can sit on the large tables in front of the window which also serves as a bar, or on the terrace, to eat crab, shrimp or chicken empenadas. Throughout the day, quick dishes and hot or cold drinks follow one another. La Casona is a gathering place for Dominicans. Warm atmosphere and attentive and smiling service. An address to test at least once during your stay here.

Gérard Prystasz, former Chef of the Élysée Palace, offers you French cuisine adapted to local products. The result is an exquisite cuisine, varied and rich in flavours, as shown by the chicken leg stuffed with lobster, the sea bream goujonnettes with passion fruit and the many gourmet desserts, including a fresh fruit sabayon. All of this is washed down with a good wine and served either indoors or on the terrace in a small shady garden. A classic to be discovered in a setting as neat as it is elegant.

Located by the pool of the Punta Rucia Lodge, this restaurant enjoys an idyllic setting, with a view of the turquoise Caribbean Sea. On the menu: fish specialties of course, but also meat dishes and other specialties proposed according to the mood of the chef. The products are good and fresh. All this for an excellent quality-price ratio. Smiling and attentive service. For lunches and dinners that will delight all appetites.

It's with joy and good humor, and a big, infectious smile to boot, that we're welcomed by the managers of La Ola. The little Mediterranean-style wooden straw hut faces the sea and enjoys a delightful sea breeze. Seafood is the order of the day, as are some very French specialties. The menu, on a slate, changes regularly and depends on the catch of the day. All this for unbeatable value for money. As you can see, this is a highly recommended stop-off in town.
