Blue Jack Tarr –Playa Dorado, Puerto Plata
Blue Jack Tarr is a restaurant inside Playa Dorado. You enter the gate at Playa Dorado then take a left and enter another gate with security for the Blue Jack Tarr complex. The Blue Jack Tarr complex has 2 restaurants a golf course and several condominium units on the property.
The restaurant is nothing short of incredible! It is an outdoor venue with tarps as ceilings and the decor is contemporary. There is soft jazz and Brazilian music playing in the background and the restaurant has a bar and a seating area where you can watch their 2 flat screen tv’s. There is a view of condo construction and a golf course.
Let me say the staff was OUTSTANDING! One waiter seats you and another waits on you pouring your beverages etc. The menu included items in the area of 500 pesos but other than 1 side everything else you ordered would be a la cart therefore with drinks for 2 it would be easy to leave paying 2000pesos or better. The menu included the typical foods steaks seafood and chicken. The food was very good I had grilled Mahi Mahi with a garlic butter sauce. An interesting part of the menu is the “sauce section” which includes various sauces that you can include with your dish.
I went to the bathroom and it was more immaculate that the restaurant! Then they have an aromatic candle at the bottom of each table that gives off a soft sent. All I can say is that this joint is “OFF DAH CHAIN!”

Please keep the great information coming. Unfortunately, many mongers don't leave that one street in Sosua for an entire 7 day trip.

The Bottle Club-Calle Luis Ginebra, Puerto Plata
The Bottle Club is on the same Street as La Palacio de Justicia going towards La Sirena. There is an outside balcony with a bar and white chairs & couches along with tables. The indoor section has seating in the center and couches along the walls. There is a bar on the inside that has bottles hanging down from the ceiling and all the walls are decorated with bottles of different types of alcohol. There is a flat-screen TV and the staff will put on whatever you would like to watch.
The venue is more of a bar serving various types of alcoholic beverages than it is a restaurant however they do serve food and have a small kitchen. The menu includes sandwiches and light Mexican dishes like fajitas & tacos most food items were less than 500 pesos. I only had an appetizer of Italian sausage since it was so late and I enjoyed it.
The wait staff was professional I enjoyed the upscale ambiance and I definitely wouldn’t mind going again.

Jamvi’s Pizzaria & Seafood. Malecon, Puerto Plata
Jamvi’s restaurant is located on the Malecon, there are 2 levels both face the Malecon and Playa Puerto Plata so you can see and hear the waves from the beach. I originally wanted to go because I thought the restaurant was only a pizzeria but I discovered it was a full service restaurant with an extensive menu. The menu include high end lobster for 600 pesos to chicken and fish averaging around 400 pesos. I had a medium chicken pizza for 300 pesos. I have had several pizzas in the Dominican Republic and I have not been pleased but this was the best. The sauce had a semi sweet taste and the crust was decent.
I went during the early afternoon so there was only 1 waiter however his service was very good and there wasn’t a long wait for the food however it has been reported that at times service can be lacking. Jamvi’s is another Puerto Plata restaurant that I would have no problem returning to.
