Relax - Santo Domingo

The Asian family that owns Lotus restaurant uptown also owns this restaurant. I had a salad and a main dish here, although I can't remember exactly what it was since it was six months ago. The food was decent, although I can't recall the specifics. The staff was friendly and helpful, informing me that all the dishes here are vegan. When I asked for a recommendation due to my hunger upon arrival, the staff suggested something off the menu. The entrance to the restaurant is not very noticeable, with only a RELAX sign and Lotus restaurant graffiti marking the spot on the corner of Av. Cayetano Germosan. The entrance is simple and looks more like a greenhouse. Unfortunately, I was bothered by mosquitoes during my meal and ended up with several bites on my legs. I didn't get a chance to try Lotus restaurant, but from what I could see through the windows, it appears to be the better and more comfortable option.

One tricky aspect of the restaurant is that there is no clear sign indicating its location. The only clue is a RELAX sign and Lotus restaurant graffiti on the corner of Av. Cayetano Germosan. The entrance is simple and inconspicuous, resembling a greenhouse. Inside, there were quite a few mosquitoes, and I ended up getting many bites on my legs during the meal. I had intended to try Lotus Restaurant as well, but didn't make it during their opening hours. From what I could see through the windows, it appeared to be a better and more comfortable option.

The restaurant is owned by an Asian family who also owns Lotus Restaurant uptown. I had a salad and a main dish, although I can't remember exactly what it was since it was half a year ago, but it was decent. The staff was friendly and helpful, informing me that all the dishes are vegan. When I asked for a recommendation instead of looking at the menu due to my hunger, the staff was accommodating. However, one downside is that the restaurant is not well-signposted, with only a "RELAX" sign and Lotus restaurant graffiti on the corner of Av. Cayetano Germosan. The entrance is simple and resembles a greenhouse, with many mosquitoes present during my visit, resulting in bites on my legs. Despite not being able to try Lotus Restaurant during my visit, after peeking through the windows, it seems like a better and more comfortable option.
