We went here almost every day of our trip. When other restaurants disappointed us we found ourselves back at Castaway! The snapper dinner 10/10 would recommend. The Miami vice drink and espresso martini was always made perfect! Staff was friendly and always inviting. Food was always made fresh. The environment was always clean and charming! Great place if you’re looking for good food and vibes. The 3lbs snapper we had on our last day and if you are in a group I would suggest that. A great place to eat a mixture of local and tourist spot. We had lunch there however they also have a great nightlife with karaoke and other events. We did not participate in any of these just had our lunch. The staff was very friendly and welcoming.Willing to take the time to answer our questions and recommend our dining selections. The sancocho, per staff there most Dominican dish, was outstanding. Be aware that if you’ve never had this before it may contain bone. Even though it was a hot summer day this dish was delicious and filling. The atmosphere is comfortable. Holly recommend and will return I can honestly say after 5 days in Punta Cana, I have not been thrilled about food options here, but this cafe satisfied me. I'm only sad I tried it on my last morning, so only had it once. I placed my order for pick up on the way to the airport. I had the American breakfast my teen had the Dominican breakfast. The pancake looked burnt, but didn't taste burnt. The flavor was good and it's a huge fluffy pancake.The Dominican breakfast, I'm assuming that was good too, because my teen ate it all. Each breakfast was about $12 USD each. Service was friendly and fast. I'm disappointed there was no to-go cup for me to get a coffee on the run, no plastic knife only forks, and the bacon is thin. Minor complaints. All in all I recommend. Picture of my American Breakfast...pancake, egg and bacon.

Great spot in the heart of tourists filled Punta Cana. We went there twice, the first time for breakfast (no picture) and it was nothing impressive but our server was top notch. So much that we decided to go again for dinner. Unfortunately, she wasn't there that time but our food was good. I had the fish ceviche with plantain chips and I could have had that again and again. Nice atmosphere, too.

Vanessa was an excellent server and really helpful with menu choices (fluent English). Quite enjoyed the Grouper, moist and delicious. Street side patio can be a little noisy but not their fault, and they have AC inside as well. Premium price but quality product. All local prices are up 🤷🏼♂️. I'd go back 👍🏼.
