Fodor's Expert Review Tierra y Mar Restaurant & Bar

$ Santa Barbara de Samana Caribbean

This locally owned restaurant serves no-frills traditional food done right. Located just off the main strip, the local gem draws both travelers and locals to dine together under its palm roof. In fact, photos on the wall show owners, Evelyn and David, posing with local politicians (including some former presidents) and national celebrities. The fish is fresh and locally sourced and is always worth the wait when there is one, though service is usually efficient and warm. Portion sizes are good and prices are relatively cheap.
