There are not many places in this area and I surprised that I found this place. I ordered fish in a coconut sauce with rice, beans and salad. I'm very happy with my choice. Everything taste fresh and well seasoned. Definitely I will be back to try the churrasco and some other options. Why not 5 stars, cause there is always a room to improve! read more

Placed an order today 4:54 pm. Order #02 I arrived to pick up the order and bring it home. Upon unbagging the order at home the rice & beans were missing to my specific meal we ordered about 4-5 meals. And the beans given for 5.99 was extremely small. I drove all the way back to inform them the meal was missing the rice and beans if they can remake the order for me since I've just had to drive all the way back, and if I can have the correct beans I live 30-40 min away. The server tells the active manager Tito what has happened, Tito arrives to inform me he is going to check the cameras because the kitchen staff is stating they included everything and he needs to find out who is telling the truth.... At this point I'm now waiting for Tito to conduct his investigation For RICE AND BEANS, After sometime he returns to go to the chefs and come back and tell me they made a mistake. So he makes me wait only to receive rice and beans and no chicken. I inform him the chicken was made and picked up an hour ago I was hoping to receive the meal fresh since I am now going to have to eat this with cold chicken from 1 hr ago what am I suppose to do? He stated for me to rewarm the chicken because he knows if he makes the chicken fresh I will keep the one at home and eat it another time. You would think for the massive inconvenience of having to come back twice I would've received the food fresh. No that was not the case, after making me seem at fault even seeing on camera I was telling the truth. I've been coming here for years and have never encountered such unprofessional unempathetic terrible customer service. Tito stated to go home and come back with the chicken so he can make it fresh.... I don't think the active manager even understands how to deescalate or provide ANY customer service. I will never again come back here to pick up food for my family again, nor will I recommend and in fact will not suggest my relatives and friends to ever come or cater for anything. read more

I have always loved Spanish food. This is a Dominican owned restaurant and it offers outside seating with an outdoor bar for faster service. I had the Seafood Casuela of Mariscos with a side of Mofongo it was delicious and tasted great. The portions were large enough to share. read more

I went here for Mother's Day and it was the worst experience ever. For starters we ordered empanadas and they brought us more than we ordered as we asked the server which empanadas were chicken or beef, she proceeded to TOUCH OUR EMPANADAS WITH HER NAILS, then STARTED COUGHING AND THEN TOUCHED THE EMPANADAS AGAIN. At that point I told her we no longer wanted them. She then disappeared and we had another server. Our meal came out and it was completely wrong, at this point we decided to just eat after waiting over an hour to only be eating dry over cooked mofongo. Even the drink I ordered came out wrong!!! I was truly disappointed for the money I paid and the service we received. Fui aquí para el Día de la Madres y fue la peor experiencia: Para empezar, pedimos empanadas y nos trajeron más de lo que pedimos cuando le preguntamos al camarero qué empanadas eran de pollo o carne de res, ella procedió a TOCAR NUESTRAS EMPANADAS CON SUS UÑAS, luego COMENZÓ A TOSER Y LUEGO TOCÓ LAS EMPANADAS DE NUEVO. En ese momento le dije que ya no los queríamos. Luego desapareció y tuvimos otro servidor. Nuestra comida salió y estaba completamente mal, en este punto decidimos comer después de esperar más de una hora para solo comer seco sobre cocido Mondongo. ¡Incluso la bebida que pedí salió mal! Me decepcionó mucho el dinero que pagué y el servicio que recibimos. read more

Mofongo so good. Best meal I've had in a while. Flvery friendly atmosphere. From out of town? Yes, here.

Food was excellent and so many entrees to choose from. Portions were larger than I expected. Service was very good and refills of drinks were prompt. We came for an early dinner and we're able to get a good look at the restaurant which was very clean, and well decorated. read more

My parents are from the Dominican Republic and both cook like professional Dominican chefs. When I visited home and they recommended for us to dine at a local Dominican spot, I was weirded out. Why on earth would we leave the house to eat something I've had at home my entire life? But as soon as we arrive, I got it. Puna Cana is conveniently located right off of 192, no more than 10 minutes from my parents house. Their menu is a mix of Dominican and Puerto Rican dishes and features so many of my favorites. They have a full bar and their drinks were decently price, and pretty strong. The service was impeccable. It was clear that my parents were regulars, as they said hello to several people who worked here. I learned that they frequent the restaurant for Karaoke Nights on Saturdays- who knew they were so cool?! I ordered the "camarofongo" aka camorones with mofongo aka shrimp with the most excellent smashed platano goodness. It was all covered and sitting in an amazing garlic sauce. I don't know how, but I ate the whole thing. It was delicious! My moms dish, the fish fillet, was also extremely tasty, covered in the same garlic sauce. All in all, this local spot was tasty, had great service and will leave you full for days. I'll be back next time I'm in town and my parents are too lazy to cook ;) read more

This spot is cool. The drinks are decently priced, they have tvs, music and the people in there are live. They were doing karaoke when I was there. It was a riot. There is plenty of parking and a security officer outside at all times. The bar looks pretty cool, I love the aesthetic. read more

I've been to Puna Cana Restaurant three times. I've left extremely happy and FULL every time. I've recently just moved from South Fl to Central Fl and this restaurant reminds me of the good Hispanic food I've left behind in Miami. The customer service is on point and I appreciate suggestions and recommendations. They have a full bar. I also enjoy their music selection. read more

Had a wonderful meal. I had a hard time communicating however they really tried to accommodate us. Everything was fresh and tasty.

4 stars for the portions and flavor of food. Deducted 1 star for service. My colleagues raved this restaurant for the lunch specials for $5.95 and the portions you do get and the taste. Most of them are spanish so they know what real spanish food should taste like. They raved the fish lunch special -- however on this day we went they didnt have it on the menu. I asked my dominican colleague whats the next good thing on the menu and she chose the fried pork dish. This is a Dominican establishment and since she is Dominican I trusted her choice of dish. The water / drink service was ok - slow yet the place was not busy. So poor service on water service. Our lunch came in served with a big portion! The plate consisted about 5-6 big fried pork chunks with a side of rice and red beans with a side salad that had lettuce and 2 slices of tomatoes. I could not finish my food so the rest was placed to go containers. The pork was seasoned well and tender! Rice was tender and the beans were average no signs of pumpkin cubes like what I am used to. Of course salad side is average. Water tasted good here icy cold - but then again had to wave hand for water refills. Its def worth it grabbing lunch here since its made fresh to order, seasoned well and for $5.95 you get big portions! read more

Mira, si no me creen vayan y pierdan su dinero... Esta es mi experiencia El lugar es agradable tiene dos areas y es agradable En la parte de la comida por su precio NO LO VALE Y no decir que es cara, solo que no es buen NO Al pedir un plato de comida (Churrasco de pollo) este estaba MUY MALO pedí un cambio de plato, el churrasco se lo llevaron y me cobraron la mitad del plato no comí ni dos piezas... Al final me cobraron "solo el contorno(side)" del pollo y fueron 7$ y la otra comida en 12$ total pague 19$ por un plato malo de comida y la explicación que me dieron fue para marearme y no dejarme entender cómo me quitaban mi donado. Lugar malo y si leen esto quiero mi dinero de vuelta no un mofongo!!!!!! MALOOOOOOOOOOO read more

Huge letdown. Servers were all over the place, missing items from our orders. Several items. Food wasn't that great, too. Not sure what it was, but my step father swore by it and was also disappointed, so maybe they just had an off day. Still, I might only come back to watch a game and hang by the outdoor bar, which seems like it could be a good time. I'd search for something better in the area for Spanish food. read more

We are from the Caribbean region and knows how tasty is the food down there. We were craving for our foods and visited the place on a Saturday afternoon. Ordered Mofongo ,the taste isn't as expected, we had better before, it had a old oily taste, and the "chicharon" suppose to be crunchy, well it wasn't. For appetizer we ask for Quipe, and they look like were fried before and just reheated. Well, Just recommend this review to the owners, need to have a little more caution read more

Went for a family get together. Very accommodating. Pretty good service for the amount of people we had. Food is ok.

Went there didn't look Busy sit on the back porch I had to wave the bartender twice just to get a drink , I asked for the menu and waited 20 min while the bartender flirt with a guy she never came back to see if I wanted to order food , so I left and gave her $1 tip I will never return , there is a reason why you establishment is empty your service is horrible. read more

We were hungry and stopped in this restaurant and the food and service were amazing. I ordered a cazuela de marisco for only 16 dollars and it was plenty of seafood including a lobster. Everything was fresh and the quantity enough for 2 people. They have live music on Saturdays. And if your server is Gloria your experience will be even better. Strongly recommended for the quality, quantity and excellent service read more

The food was okay, it took around a hour to even get the food and another 35 mins to get the check. When receiving the check they over charged and forced a 35 dollar tip when it was 2 dishes will not be coming back..... not recommended read more

Food was delicious and the owners are very welcoming. Great service. They made us feel right at home.

I went there on 12/21/18 with my mom after a 5 hour drive from Miami. We've eaten there before on one of our trips to Orlando. First of all we were directed to the restaurant in the back and seated ourselves and waited 5 minutes to have the waitress come over to our table. She was a little rude and didn't really pay us much attention. We ordered the yucca croquettes and for some reason our plate had an Oreo on it , which the waitress said someone in the kitchen placed on our plate by accident, yet she didn't remove it. We ordered water for drinks since they didn't have Dominican sodas (which I found weird for a Dominican restaurant) and the water tasted very weird so we stopped drinking it. My mom and I decided to share a plate mofongo with chicharrón de pollo which according to the menu came together for a decent price. When we got the plate the chicharrón was kinda burnt but tasted decent. What really sent us off was that the food was bought to us by a server and after getting our drinks 15 minutes before the mofongo , our waitress NEVER came back to check on us. She was talking with patrons in the table behind us the whole time and we had to call her over to pick up our plates and get our check. At that point we had been looking at her for almost 20 minutes and she couldn't bothered to even come to our table. Once we got our bill we noticed that our mofongo and chicharrón were priced separately! Even though on the menu the mofongo was a plate that came with the chicharrón de pollo. When we asked the waitress she claimed she was confused when we initially asked about it prior to ordering it and "unless it's the filled chicharrón it's priced separately". By this point we were fed up and didn't want to argue so we paid and left. I have never heard of a place charging separately for chicharrón when you order mofongo , it's safe to say we won't be dining there again. read more

I give it one start because I can't give it any less. Worst place I've been in a while. First the menu has barely any text on it and it has no information about sides or prices for sides. My boyfriend ordered chicharrones (which were disgusting) with mofongo as a side. Whenever the server gave us the side options she failed to say some have extra prices and, of course, it's not stated in the menu to begin with. When the check arrived, they charged us for HALF of the plate he did not eat, and the whole price for the plate he ordered instead of the chicharrones. This is honestly not the worst part. The manager came over and explained to us what we were getting charged. She stated over and over mofongo was an extra "$3" (we got charged $6). I mentioned several times how that didn't matter when we didn't know that from the start. We asked what are the sides and she mentioned them without talking about extra prices for some of them. The manager didn't acknowledge the mistake and still charged us almost full price for a plate that was truly horrible. I will never come to this place again and I would suggest you didn't either if you don't wanna spend over $80 on bs food and bs service. Never again. read more

Worst place ever, "music" is extremely loud, service bad as food.

I was reading the reviews to see if my experience compare and wow the reviews are all over the place. So either they change the chef or some people haven't really had good dominican food. The food was not the best Dominican food I have eaten! but the prices were extremely low. Dessert didn't look to fresh. Doesn't look like they put to much effort in their cooking. The service was not good but it was not bad either. The food came in a timely manner. I would would back to listen to the live music and to have beer and appetizer. read more

Slow and poor service... food subpar, menu is deceitful and they won't bring you what you ordered, literally took 1.5 hrs to get food. Will never come here again, I suggest you don't waste your time. read more

So the waitresses are scammers and liars. This was my 3rd time going to the restaurant now the 3rd time was the worse. We start outside and I ask the young lady for water for my party mind you 3 adults a baby and a toddler; she brings bottles and I ask if she's going to charge me hence didn't ask for bottles, she answers rudely OF COURSE! I said well no please bring water to drink that seemed to rattle her as she turned to the bar area with the bartender and other waitress of course I'm looking at her and she's talking crap because I didn't want bottles of water. I go to the restroom at this point come back she didn't want to wait on us mind you fine with me but definitely did not want either of them. We go inside because the wonderful waitress Fabiola was is unfortunately she did not attend us but non the less she was still great she's the reason we returned. When we finish our meal I pay look at the receipt and see that the tip is automatically included when I question the waitress she had the audacity to lie and said IF YOU SPEND OVER $80 THE TIP IS AUTOMATICALLY INCLUDED of course was like hmmm left it at that but searched for the other receipt to see from our previous meal as we spent well over that amount and a bigger party and GUESS WHAT NO AUTOMATIC TIP so I keep looking so I guess all the waiters needed to be in on the joke my receipt SHE SAID I HAD A PARTY OF 8! When if you want to count the children was 5! Be VERY CAREFUL WITH THIS RESTAURANT AND STAFF EXCEPT FABIOLA! read more

HORIBBLE!!!!!! The service was horrible my mom came in with her service dog and the entire employee staff looked at us and would roll their eyes. As we were being seated the woman who looked more in charge then the rest of the staff came running to us and said "We need the papers now for the dog" amd when we showed her she said "where's the card?" and we said "what do you mean?" and she said "you are supposed to have a card with the information about the dog" and we said "I thought it was in the paper" and she said "o.now I see it" and walks away. The server would never come to the table and when they did they would look at the dog like it was a spawn of satan. We found multiple hairs in the food and the salad was really nasty but we didn't say anything and just left. Also they don't tell you that the tip is included and just put it in automatically. Very very bad. Don't waste your time. read more

We arrived into town late and were starving. Not many places open after 8:30pm. We pulled into Punta Cana because the open sign was on. It was just after 9pm. The kitchen had closed but they said they would serve us. We had the fried Red Snapper and the Seafood Paella. The food was brought out and was amazing. The whole Red Snapper was perfect. The meat was tender and the skin was crispy. The Paella was loaded with fresh seafood from mussels, squid, lobster tail, and plenty of shrimp. Expertly arranged and seasoned. Many thanks to the staff that went out of their way to make us a perfect meal. read more

The Best Latin food I have had in 10 years ! And that is coming from someone that use to work for a airline and has traveled the world. Even the black beans and rice gave new meaning and showed me what I have been missing all these years. Someone's Momma is in the kitchen ! I had the Masitas de Cerdo - fried pork chunks - perfect ! The plantains were better than I make :) Hurry to this place before I tell my two foody friends, and they tell their two friends. I understand this place is packed Thursday to Sunday. read more

Place was a nice change of night to get some food in with friends (4 of us). In my whole experience, our server was slow. She was more worried about her big table (Was about 8-9 people who been sitting way before we came in and was welcomed) and not checking up on us. We ordered our appetizer and she left later came back and we ordered our entress and both (1 Appetizer and 4 Entrees) came at the same time. I had to get up and ask the bartender for refills (Soda & liquor) and for plates and napkins. There was another lady server who noticed that we was annoyed and she really helped out as much as she could while attending her tables. The food was good and drinks as well. We left the tip to the lady who helped us out. Service "C" Food & Drinks "A"... Nice place but that one lady server just didnt cut it.. They played live music which was great as well.. We was kept entertained and we kept each other occupied but her service just couldn't be unnoticed.. read more

We celebrated my Mother in laws birthday this past Saturday. Service was ok I'm Dominican and was surprised when I ordered an Empanada de yucca was amazed on how small it was? It was not less than half the size of small plate it came on? It was borderline warm/cold? When I ordered the stuffed mofongo w/lobster and shrimp, maybe 4 shrimps? Nothing like the pics I saw online when I googled the restaurant? read more

Good food, well priced and friendly service. Hubby and I walked in at 9:29 pm without knowing they close at 9:30 pm. We usually order pretty quick and the server didn't tell us anything. We had dinner outside sense there are fans everywhere being that it's August (extremely hot). The food came out fast, fresh and hot. We enjoyed our dinner and did not feel rush at all. We found out what time they closed because we asked about their hours of operation so we can come back. A must go when in the area! read more
