I live in the Dominican Republic for 11 years and first time visited El Lugar yesterday - July 9th 2022, to celebrate my wife’s Birthday. This is a terrific place. The cousin is amazing. In DR there are a very few restaurants with such amazing,...unique and delicious cousin. Interior is perfectly match to the location and Dominican spirit. Staff is over friendly and attentive. They do everything in order every single client feel himself special, even if restaurant is 100% full is at was yesterday when we visited there. Must visited place for sure!! Highly recommend!!!More

Perfect place to have dinner. The owner (or manager?) was super friendly, he really took care of his guests. The restaurant provided us an apetizer and a shot at the end. The food was delicious and very good portions. Not cheap, but highly recommended as...you receive value from your money.More

We loved the appetizers, ambiance, and exceptional service! The chupito (shot) at the end was great! We went as a family, ages 11-67 and everyone enjoyed their meal.

Good is really good, the owners are welcome and nice, service is good. The athmosphere is nice and the restauarant is pretty!

Mediocre food and service. Waitress got our order wrong. The menu is very un-creative, but the croquetas we’re a nice surprise for a welcome on the house

We have always enjoyed el lugar both in house and from Komida order in. Tonight I tried the vegetarian burger and it was delicious and very guilt free! My husband had the chicken burger and it was fabulous as well. Fries were delicious. Always recommended....Great place and Bruno is very welcoming always!More

terrific variety of options. Food is presented beautifully and tasted delicious. Drinks were wonderful. Had a great time at this place.

The service is fast and efficient. The staff is friendly and professional. The food is very delicious and at fair prices. Nothing more to ask for. I highly recommend the place and will definitely go again next time I am around.

My husband and I went here for dinner after seeing good reviews and it exceeded my expectations. The appetizer of chicken coquettes was tasty and presented well. The service was attentive and friednly. I ordered the pork rib chops which were cooked to perfection. The...portions are quite large and it was a great value. We also hada special shot du jour which had a touch of oramge blossom making it a perfect appertif to ourfabulous meal.More

Came here just after arriving in Las Terrenas. We ordered fried Calamari and it was amazing! We recommend :)

I went there with my bf for dinner this weekend. Everything was perfect. We ordered a mojito and a gin cucumber martini. Both were very tasty and not too sweet. The kitchen gave us an amuse bouche of croquettes which was a pleasant surprise and...then followed with fresh bread. We ordered calamari, ceviche, and mahi mahi with vegetables and potato wedges. It was all delicious and flavorful. The service and food was great and we will definitely return.More

Very tasty meals and delicious drinks. The owner took an extra mile so that we feel welcome. Surprisingly short waiting time. Highly recommended for dinners and late night drinks.
