I find that all restaurants on Sosua beach sketchy. I've eaten twice (once 2 weeks ago and once last year) at Mofongo King which is raved about and it was the worse mofongo that I have ever had. Toro Negro is good, but pricey with very small portions. Tom's is now called Rehab. I haven't eaten there, but it's owned by two nice gringos and they have live music most nights. They have a full menu. I used to eat pizza at Velero's until I saw the cook blow his nose in his hands.
I wanted to post something like this before but did not want to appear negative ...
But lets just say the places I used to recommend HIGHLY to people before, will never see my money again..
but for different reasons .
one small example , Andres, used to LOVE the place and their food is very good .
As a group we used to spend so much money there its ridiculous .. tables on the sand ..like that .. lots of fun.
So when I go there alone, or with one other person I re introduce myself, so he recognizes the names of the guys i hung with .
What does the guy do , he cheats me on the Lobster that was brought to me on a plate and approved, and agreed on to go into the SALAD and in the Meal.
It was a rainy day, so i guess he wanted to make up for it by making his money on me .. I guess the Stupid Gringo was not supposed to actually know whats what .
Sorry, but I only get screwed once . you dont get another chance to do that to me.
The food quality is Always AWESOME . no complaint there
.. but if they CAN chisel you , they WILL..
I guess this goes for any place on the beach .
So I keep it simple now .. FRIED Fish, and Tostones ..thats it
Not wasting my money any more on a large Meal, literally thousands of Pesos , and get ripped off to boot ?..
Keep your Lobster and your Shrimp.
Rather spend my money at a SIT down Restaurant in town.. plenty of Good Choices there.
