The story
Il Bacareto sits on Plaza Juan Dauhajre along Avenida Simón Bolívar, one of Santo Domingo's most storied thoroughfares. In 2025, Gambero Rosso awarded it 2 Forks — a mark of quality from one of the most respected food guides in the Italian culinary world, and a distinction that places Il Bacareto firmly on the map for discerning diners visiting the Dominican Republic.
The Gambero Rosso 2 Forks rating signals a restaurant that goes beyond the ordinary: consistent kitchen craft, a considered dining room, and a guest experience worth seeking out. For a guide with Italian roots to recognise a restaurant in the Caribbean speaks to the kind of seriousness Il Bacareto brings to the table.
Whether you are a Santo Domingo local or a traveller passing through, Il Bacareto on Avenida Simón Bolívar is a reference point for quality dining in the city.
