La Parrilla Steak House — Local services in Santo Domingo

Had a great time here last night with friends and not crowded or busy but just perfect. We almost went to a nearby larger and busier spot which I had been to on a prior trip, but this was more in sync to what we were in the mood for as far as just having a quiet dinner without the wait, parking, etc.

Great view of the Malecon and attentive but not overbearing service. The most important part is the food of course and I had the New York cut I believe it was 12 ounces and I can't tell you the last time I had a steak this good. If I am thinking about a meal I had the next day it's that good. I had it with fried potatoes and a local vegatable blend. Many other items to choose from such as pork, chicken and seafood. Also nice beer and wine selection but I always aim to drink the local beers and they were cold. Will definitely return on my next trip to Santo Domingo and highly recommend you...

It was very cold. It's a little noisy outside as you are facing the malecon. However, you do have a pleasant ocean view! Our only disappointment was the wait staff.

(Yes, all 3 staff members were on their cells each time we needed something) With that said, the food was soooo good that we would eat here again, prepared to get our own drinks from...

They were fixing up the outside of the restaurant so there were parts that were closed off and we didn't go inside. The people outside were very nice and helpful. Our food was delivered quickly and it was hot.

We had the chicken croquettes which were delicious and creamy. The quipes were too sweet for us (they had cinnamon or something in them), which was sad because we didn't like them, but I guess that's how some places make them. We had one of the meat plates and the meat was smoky and juicy. There was also corn and peppers with it. We also got fried yucca, which was crisp and the small bananas that were cooked to perfection! We would absolutely go back!

The only thing that I didn't like was the ice cream! It is filled with chemicals and...
