Santo Domingo.- The Dominican Restaurant Association (ADERES) and the Dominican Republic Hotel and Tourism Association (ASONAHORES) announced the 8th edition of Restaurant Week 2025, the country’s largest culinary event, with more than 180 restaurants participating nationwide.

The festival will take place in Santiago (Sept. 1–7), Punta Cana (Sept. 8–14), and Santo Domingo (Sept. 15–21), offering two- and three-course menus at fixed prices (RD$1,395 and RD$1,795 + tax). The initiative highlights Dominican gastronomy, boosts tourism, and strengthens the local economy.
