Los Tres Cocos

Thread on the restaurant. I'm a bit suspicious about a place that sells salmon in the DR...

In Puerto Plata head towards Cofresi, after passing the free zone on the right hand side of the road you will see a sign that says Cabanas. Take a right at the sign then take your first left. You will find Tres Cocos a little ways up on your right. Please note there is slot of foliage in front, so look for cars.

“Los tres cocos” is actually a very nice place. The owner Miky is from Austria and he is an excellent cook.
The restaurant is not very big and I would recommend that you make a reservation - especially on weekends or close to Christmas.

Somebody said something about “not eating salmon in The Dominican republic”.. Well, I also prefer salmon from Norway - lol.. However you get a pretty okay salmon at Price Smart - boneless and skinless - one whole side of the fish - vacuum packed and frozen.
If you prepare the fish with “love” it actually turns into a nice dish..
But I also know, that many restaurants here have a terrible salmon with the wrong taste and wrong texture… I guess it was frozen around 10 times… At “Los tres cocos” the salmon is okay - maybe not from Norway - but absolutely right.

the food in tres cocos is great and portions are generous.

Los Tres Coco's is a very nice place for something special! The food is fresh, tasty, and plentiful. The service takes time, highly recommend a reservation unless you are dining early. Also important to note; closed on Tuesday and is a cash only operation, no credit cards accepted. It is well worth the trip!
