Manolo

Santo Domingo


Owned by Hotel Riazor next door, Manolo has an indoor dining room and an elevated outdoor terrace that is great for a leisurely meal or drink. However, don't expect quiet – the street noise can be a nuisance and it gets busy during the weekday lunch rush. The menu runs the gamut from basic sandwiches to elaborately prepared lobster and steaks.
