"Experience living history at this charming European brasserie, housed in a space that’s thought to have been the first tavern in the Americas. Opened in 1505 by a Dutch pirate, Pata de Hierro was a favorite hangout of buccaneers on Plaza España, facing the Alcazar de Colón. Since then, not a single change has been made to the interior’s original brick arches or stone walls, making it easy to imagine rowdy nights here in the 16th century. Close your eyes and picture the pirates as you dig into everything from charcuterie boards and tuna carpaccio to hearty short ribs, grilled Chilean sea bass, and squid ink risotto with langoustines."

The restaurant has a lovely and inviting atmosphere, perfect for a relaxing evening. However, the food and presentation were disappointing. We waited forever for our meals, and when they finally arrived, the carbonara was a disaster—made with cream and mushrooms, which completely ruined the dish. Sadly, the overall experience didn’t live up to the ambiance.

Great place to have a drink or a meal right by Diego Columbus Alcazar and close to Casa Reales. Food was good I ordered the octopus and risotto. I was not disappointed

It was all delicious. We had a table on the patio looking at the castle. The food and beverages were excellent.

This is a must visit when coming to Santo Domingo especially for the first time. It is perfectly situated in the middle of the colonial city on the Plaza de España . With a wonderful view of the Alcanza de Colon. This restaurant has ample outdoor seating and is a hotspot in the evenings. The food is consistently good, and has many many offerings for any pallet to be satisfied.

very good food. crispy apple was amazing. however, it took them a long time to come to take our order and we felt unattended (probably because we sat indoors and most people sat outside). also, the restaurant was a bit overpriced in my opinion (and i live in new york city aka the most overpriced city in the world).

Came here for atmosphere and we got it, but the bread they served really hard, almost stale, gave them to the birds on the way out. Also worth noting - - egg plant appetizer/dip only came with 6 tortilla chips. - most of the drinks weren’t available but next door was..
