( 809-571-3682; cnr Calles Pedro Clisante & Arzeno; mains RD$450; 7:30am-11pm) This
Dominican/German-owned restaurant has been a solid midrange choice - with great bur-
gers, seafood and lobster by the kilo - for several decades now. There's a pleasant bar for
a quiet drink before or after. Good breakfasts, too.
DOMINICAN $$
Rocky's Rock & Blues Bar Hotel
(Calle Dr Rosen 24; mains RD$250; 7am-late; ) The sign outside says 'World Famous
Ribs,' but that's just the beginning - the breakfasts, served until 3pm, are great value, the
steaks are Dominican beef (not imported), and the beers are some of the cheapest in town.
Pizza is served after 5pm and the music is pure rock and blues.

This beachfront space is part of the Ocean Club, an ultramodern condo development still
under construction at the time of our visit. The Chilean chef designs an ever-changing
tasting menu involving freshly caught seafood and wine pairings for every course.

( 809-571-3925; cnr Calles Dr Rosen & Dr Alejo Martínez; mains from RD$600; 5-11pm; )
This longtime Sosúa culinary landmark with a colonial-era design scheme takes its cuisine
seriously, both in its presentation and price. Steak and seafood are the rock stars here -
there's chateaubriand, surf and turf, and a mixed seafood platter for two (US$50). It has
an amazing cocktail list, and the menu is in five languages, including Russian.
Drinking & Nightlife
Sosúa's nightlife - the epicenter is along Calle Pedro Clisante - is packed with bars and
clubs, many catering to prostitutes and their customers. A mayoral initiative to enclose
every open-air place with walls and windows to make prostitution less visible has yet to
take effect. Restaurants, wherever they are in town, are often a more relaxed place for a
drink.
