The best restaurants Puerto Plata

Opened in 2014 in a colonial house a stone's throw from the central square, Kaffe offers the chance, in addition to accompanying breakfast with an excellent coffee, to sample some simple, well-made international dishes in the mansion's vast tropical backyard, or in one of the many quaintly charming rooms on the ground and second floors. A good option for a mojito too. And let's not forget the tempting menu of fresh, fruity smoothies. Smiling service and friendly atmosphere.

The setting for Jamvi's restaurant is a lovely terrace under a cana roof, surrounded by greenery and overlooking the Malecón. The restaurant serves pizzas and international cuisine in a simple, friendly atmosphere. A few Dominican specialties are also offered à la carte. There's something for everyone. And don't forget the refreshing drinks and warm welcome from the owners. The children will have plenty to do in the play area. A catering option at very reasonable prices.

A trendy restaurant, well known to locals and popular with tourists, right by the ocean. The Aguaceros Bar & Grill serves American-style or Mexican-style burgers, cuts of meat with fries, salads, nachos to share... all in a simple, uncluttered setting. You can also enjoy a drink before heading to the nearby discotheque. And let's not forget the fruit juices and desserts. Friendly atmosphere, smiling, helpful service. A sure bet to try.

A tribute to Frida Kahlo and Mexico, this new restaurant in Puerto Plata has a lot to offer! Contemporary, arty (take a look at the magnificent fresco inside the restaurant) and gourmet, El Patio de Frida offers a colorful and flavorful version of the great classics of Mexican cuisine. With its careful presentation, carefully selected food, relaxed atmosphere and very professional service, this is without a doubt the address to try during a visit to Puerto Plata. At the end of the famous Paseo Doña Blanca!

Small, unpretentious Venezuelan stall. Here, you can have a dish of the day, or choose from the good arepas (corn cakes), empanadas, tequenos (small cheese-based bites) and other specialties. For dessert, enjoy a sweet banana flambé, a bowl of ice cream or a slice of chocolate cake. All with a totally reasonable bill. Small budgets and big appetites will be more than satisfied. And let's not forget the cool drinks to accompany the dishes. A warm atmosphere, dynamic service and good humor.

More than 10 years ago, Big Lee, a retired Chicagoan, set up his Big Lee's Beach Bar & Grill here, a charming tropical shack with his feet in the sand. Big Lee and his team welcome you with open arms and a smile, to enjoy a good meal at any time of day. Fish & chips, burgers and hot dogs are served in a relaxed atmosphere. The Bar & Grill is also a great option for breakfast and aperitifs!
