Luna Tapas Bar & Restaurant

Nestled on Av. George Washington inside the Renaissance Santo Domingo Jaragua Hotel & Casino, Luna Tapas Bar & Restaurant brings a slice of Spain to the Caribbean capital. Open daily from 12 pm to midnight, the venue serves a curated menu of classic tapas—patatas bravas with smoked paprika aioli, gambas al ajillo, jamón ibérico, chorizo a la sidra, and cheese‑laden croquetas—alongside inventive chef Alejandro Martínez creations like octopus carpaccio with citrus foam. The bar showcases a rotating selection of Spanish wines, sherry, and house‑made sangria, while the cocktail menu highlights gin‑based infusions and a signature Luna Mojito. The interior blends warm amber lighting, reclaimed wood tables, and a sleek marble bar, creating an intimate yet lively atmosphere that spills onto a rooftop terrace offering panoramic views of the Colonial Zone’s red‑tiled roofs and the Malecon. Price range sits comfortably in the mid‑range ($$$), making it ideal for a casual lunch, a business dinner, or a night out with friends. Live acoustic guitar on weekends adds a festive touch, and the attentive staff can recommend perfect pairings for each dish. Whether you’re a local seeking a familiar taste of the Iberian Peninsula or a traveler exploring Santo Domingo’s culinary scene, Luna Tapas promises a memorable experience of flavor, ambience, and Dominican hospitality.
