El Conuco Restaurant
They say that the best nectar emanates from the heart of the Dominican Republic and it is precisely from there, from the heart of our land, inland and brown, where we have taken chinchines of our things to offer to the Dominican and the visitor, in trays of behuco and cane adorned with cayenne, full of the charisma that identifies us as a people.

The story goes that this 500-year-old building housed the first tavern in the new world, located in front of the Alcázar de Colón, it offers an international menu with a tendency to Mediterranean cuisine without limitations.
