Encuentro Parrillada in Los Prados is a very good restaurant. I paid for a Churrasco RD$285.00, nice ambient and an educated crowd. They have an special picadera for 3 (I will say for 4) for RD$ 450.00 that will leave 3 adults men without hunger for 3 days.

The Italian places like La Lasaña (Gustavo Mejía Ricart / Lope de Vega) are good value for money. There are several other small Italian-style restaurants with similar menus, similar prices around the city.

Dragon House (Gustavo MR between L de V and Tiradentes and also on Ave. Duarte in Chinatown) are also good and inexpensive.

The really unbelievably inexpensive Para Té (Taiwanese tea garden that serves a small selection of delicious vegetarian dishes) in El Millón is rumoured to have closed - please tell me this isn't true.

Budget sushi at Sushi Ya - branches in Mirador Sur and Naco.

Hi
went to Meson b'Bari yesterday for Sunday lunch. Ambience is good and service excellent. Place probably needs a refurb, but the shodiness does kind add to the character.
Meal for 2 person, 2 course was 2100 pesos. Had a nice bottle of red wine too at 800 pesos. Was very good food, and the filet steak was one of the nicest I had.
Only negative (but for me a big negative), there was no soap in the bathrooms. Why cannot restaurants provide this cheap necessity ?
Situated on Calle Hostos in Colonial Zone.

If you are looking for good, reasonably prices Lobster, you can't go past Sully (Charles Sumner, opposite PriceSmart). It's not US$20 per head but for Lobster it is cheap.

The decor is straight out of the 70's and I'm sure most of the waiters are in their 70's! They all look gorgeous in their bowties.

What is the address for sushi ya in naco?
Also any sushi restaurants in Sarasota Bella Vista area? I have found one on Sarasota ave. fairly close to Tony Romas in a small strip mall located in what looks like is a deli coffee shop, i think the name is Sumo and has onl rolls but very nice. Two sets of rolls desert and drink come in at 500p range.Nice spot for lunch.

As a tourist that do not know too much outside the tourist area the following places serve good food at reasonable prices:

Parrillada de Luis at el malecon, dominican and seafood, meats on the grill, its a big open terrace by the sea.

Adrian Tropical also by the malecon, indoor and outdoor seating, aldo by the sea, nice dominican decor and food.

El Conuco, 5 minute walking from Hotel Jaragua Independencia ave. exit, tasty dominican food, folkloric decor and show that is a must see for any tourist.

Pacos cafeteria, fast service, dominican food and sandwiches, unexpensive beer, a favorite, on the entrance of El Conde by parque Independencia.

Default Restaurant prices

Would I be correct in assuming that like all large cities everywhere the restaurants are more expensive in Santo Domingo then in small cities and towns? In NYC a burger and fries is US$15.00. Here in Syracuse NY a burger and fries is US$7.00. There are a great many places to eat (not burgers) dinner here for less than $12.00 per person.... probably none in NYC. So what are the prices elsewhere?
