    My boyfriend and I came to Bonao for a dinner date. We should've stuck with our regular spot. I wasn't happy with the food. The service was good. I had the Rosito with skirt steak and he had the salmon. The steak was cooked well. I asked for it to be cooked medium well. The salmon had the skin on the back and wasn't seasoned for taste. We also ordered a side on sweet plantains but got it on the platter and had to ask for the mash that goes with his meal. Also it was kinda cold inside, but was told hoods and hats are not allowed. 10 mins later two guys walked in with baseball hats but weren't told the same policy. We decided when we left that we won't be returning. Needs improvement!

    This place a has a nice dark ambiance. They have ample TVs. They provide hookah which is why we came here. It did last a pretty long time. The empanadas were flavorful. The bacon burger I'll give it a 7/10. It was slightly over cooked than what I wanted it to be. The Henny colada was strong but it needed some stirring, all the liquor was at the bottom. The music was mostly Latin music but a little rap and Dancehall was played. What we weren't told was after 8 it's cash only even we came little after that time. On the receipt they charged us a 3 percent card fee but how can you if we can't use a card. Our waitress said it's something new and that it was ok the door. I forgot to double check. I feel like it should be written ok their website and on their menu as well. Now imagine 6 people getting up to withdraw to pay. Eventually we were able to pay cash but we had to remind her to take out that fee. I also came here because the night before my cousin came and said their sushi was good and guess what that was only for weekends. So disappointed. I would come back to try the sushi and for hookah!!!

    I have seen this restaurant so many times over the years but never went in but decided to try it out. The restaurant is pretty small and they sometimes have performances. The food was delicious! We had empanadas (beef, chicken, and guava cheese), skirt steak with chimichurri and yuca mash, salmon with passion fruit sauce and yuca mash, passion fruit tres leche, and flam. The cocktails were beautifully crafted.

    We absolutely love Bonao Bar & Grill with great food, great service, and great music. We would go late at night to enjoy a night out together. We love the fact that's it's open until 4 am on Friday and Saturday nights, Sunday's at 3am, and 2 am on the other days. They have great Spanish food and other dishes, Hookah, and tasty cocktails. Anytime you are looking for a place that opens late and you want to have fun at the same time, fantastic food, then Bonao Bar & Grill is the place to go!

    I am a visitor in town. I was brought her by a local resident. It is small and cozy. It looks clean even under club lighting. It doesn't seat a large crowd, so it may be good to reserve, especially if it's a special occasion. The staff for nice and prompt to greet us. The service was pretty good. We all had drinks and there were no complaints of weak drinks. The food was good but average in taste. My only negative is how loud the music is. It seems unusually loud for the size of the place. You can hear the person next to you. They had a steady flow f customers for pickup orders. I hope this helps and you enjoy your visit.

    Excellent food, excellent drinks, excellent atmosphere. The food was really good. We ordered fried calamari, guava and cheese empanadas and guacamole. The empanadas were the best. MUST try. All the appetizers were tasty. Main courses were excellent as well. The shrimp mofongo was tasty. The sauce was delicious and the shrimps were perfectly cooked. The salmon was really good. Highly recommended. The steak mofongo wasn't our favorite but it was still good. The chicken tenders were so good. They tasted just like the ones from DR. The chicken wings and sweet plantains were delicious too. The skirt steak with mashed yuca was tasty. Food presentation was nice. The atmosphere was GREAT! The DJ was on point. Music was loud but it was enjoyable. The only cons: I didn't like people smoking hooka but I do understand this is part of the establishment. Our waitress was very nice and attentive. Drinks were strong! Very strong to our taste. But that's good because you get what you pay for. Looking forward to go back! Such a good and recommended place.

    This spot is nice they have strong drinks and good hookah. I also had the Asian Chilli Thai wings it was amazing. The crab cakes was good but really small. I gave them 4 stars because they only had 1 server and only played salsa. Like come on y'all could at least play some updated reggaetón.

    Ok so Food was good not the best but happy hour is sooo good!!! The coconut mojitos were on point and would definitely go back for happy hour! 5$ mojitos and margaritas!! Originally i wanted to check out Caoba which is across the street in the corner but got turned away because they were not kid friendly. So I decided to check this place out and glad we did! FYI happy hour ends at 9 pm Also wanted to add this restaurant is kid friendly. The ambiance was good, good music and it was only about 4 pm. Good place to enjoy dinner with the family but im sure this is a good spot to check out at night. Hope to return to try the dominican sushi

    I love trying local restaurants and I have no complaints about the food or drinks they were both absolutely delicious but the service forces me to give 3 stars. Small location yet under staffed. Two big parties and only two waitresses. I arrived with a party of 5 and waiting almost half hour for a mojito is unacceptable. Appetizers almost an hour wait. Appetizers and main course arrived minutes within each other. Once the bill arrived they informed they charged a 3% charge on all debit/credit charges. I still do recommend for the delicious food but definitely needs to improve on service.

    The food is 5 star+ quality, fresh food, the display is appealing. The service is professional in that the waiter and the waitress are always courteous and knowledgeable of the menu. The environment is very clean! The staff all wear mask. This rating is a few weeks late. I ordered the Surf and Turf, Mojitos. Another time I order shrimp tacos, crab cakes and mango Mojitos. All dishes are served fresh, hot and displayed to perfection.

    There were five of us who dropped in to La Chacra for a late lunch on a chilly, but bright Saturday…read moreafternoon. We were greeted immediately by a friendly bartender, and quickly seated. That set the tone of attentive service, which continued throughout an exceptional meal in Bath Beach. This area is busy, in a locals doing their thing kind of way. It's a real neighborhood, and La Chacra is a great reason to check it out. We initially had decided on ordering the Combo La Chacra, which consists of a whole rotisserie chicken, yellow rice with red beans, an avocado salad, an order of salchipapas, and an order of maduros. We added an extra half chicken, and thought "that's a wrap". However, there was an appetizer special of thinly sliced octopus prepared Peruvian style that needed to be ordered too. The service was excellent. Not overwhelming, but just right. Dishes were cleared, napkins replaced, straw wrappers taken away as soon as they hit the table. It's not something that I'm used to writing about, but needed to be said. And then, the food. It was outstanding. Compared to both the basic, and the high end Peruvian restaurants that I've been to throughout the city, La Chacra is far and away the best. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and felt intentional. Nothing was just thrown on a plate. As full as we were, and we were quite full, there was no way that we were leaving without trying something from the desert menu. Another wise choice, as both the flan and the tres leche cake were fantastic. To wrap this one up, this spot is a solid five stars. The prices are very reasonable and the food, service, and charming atmosphere will have us returning soon.

    Amazing food and good portions! Love the rotisserie chicken, maduros, and salad. The combo meal can…read morebe good for 3 or 4 people. Only did takeout and never dine in but overall I always would order once or twice a month.
