Perched on a cliff at the very
southern end of Playa Sosúa, this simple eatery combines million-dollar views with
freshly prepared crab, fish and lobster. Diners are mostly locals, but it's welcoming to
newcomers and definitely worth seeking out. Accessed only by following the road
(through the 'neighborhood' of Los Charamicos) down from the highway.
Scotch & Sirloin/ Pizza Uno/El Batey Grill
(Calle Dr Rosen; mains RD$375; 7am-11pm; )

Housed in a
corner of the luxury condo development of the same name is this contemporary white-
tablecloth restaurant. Equally recommended for its extensive breakfast menu, especially
its fresh croissants, as it is for its lunch and dinnertime menu featuring kebabs, falafel and
kibbeh. The exceedingly cute cafe attached serves fanciful pastries and cakes - children
will love the mini-furnishings.

Locals and
expats rave about the quality of the pizza and pasta, not to mention the oreo cheesecake, at
this family-friendly place just north of the town center. The vibe, encouraged by regulars,
is of a small-city neighborhood joint with a diner feel. Delivers.

Bailey's
( 809-571-3085; Calle Dr Alejo Martínez; mains RD$250-600; 7:30am-11:45pm)
A favorite
among expats, this Austrian-owned restaurant offers specialities such as chilli burgers and
enormous schnitzel sandwiches. The decor includes lots of rattan furniture and potted
plants, as well as a welcome continually spraying mist of water to keep things cool.
