Ristorante El Sueño

What a fabulous place. Food, service and atmosphere are top notch. Very good Italian meals. A good sound system and management for karaoke.

Very friendly staff and a lovely atmosphere. They have a small air conditioned room. And open air covered and uncovered dining. Staff is very friendly. They start you with a small bruschetta that’s complementary. Garlic fish plate was a very large portion, but was not our favorite of the week. Grilled vegetables side dish are incredible. We returned the second time and had their pizzas which are fantastic. And such a good deal. One pizza can easily feed too, and it’s the best deal on the beach. This was one of our three favorite restaurants during our visit to Juan Dolio.

During the week we have spent here in Juan Dolio we have been to El Sueño twice. It was the very first place we went, we were treated well and the food was good. We noticed that the restaurant was very clean. The second time I went back it was to order pizza’s to go, and they were very good as well. This is definitely a place I would recommend and come back to.

The smell of garlic wafting from the kitchen when we arrived was a good sign. The Presidentes are nice and frosty. The bruschetta was “a la casa” and delicious….it was a good sign that we were in for a great meal. Among our group of 9, we ordered Dorado fish al ajillo (delicious), ricotta and spinach ravioli (very good) , seafood risotto (good but not amazing), pizza de prosciutto y hongos (very good - I had total food envy….and wished I had seen the pizza oven before I ordered!), spaghetti carbonara (very good), macaronis con hongos (good, fresh mushrooms instead of canned would have made it even better but understand they may be hard to come by on the island), and pasta bolognese (excellent). Total bill for 9 ppl was $189, which included a few Presidentes. Great service - and you’d be hard pressed to find a better meal in Juan Dolio for the money. Definitely worth a visit or two!

Amazing food ambiance and great staff can't wait to go back.

Fantastic Pizza place if you are in Juan Dolió beach DR. The chocolate ice cream was awesome it came on a cocoa pod . Delicioso!

This restaurant is our favorite. We order in and we dine here. The owners Teresa is amazing. She cooks the food, she is professional and engages with her customers. The staff is so friendly and professional Tonight we had Spaghetti Carbonara, Margherita pizza, and Paella. It was DELICIOSO! Come and enjoy.

Best restaurant in Juan Dolio and some of the best Italian I've had in the DR. The pizza, seafood risotto, ravioli, and salads are fantastic. Make sure you stop in for dinner after a long day on the beach!
