Fodor's Expert Review Aguazul

A new culinary experience awaits diners at this restaurant perched above Sosúa Bay, with a superlative setting, a classy but casual ambience, and delicious Japanese-Peruvian cuisine. Within the stellar Gansevoort Resort, this love child of Peru and Japan offers contemporized versions of Peruvian comfort food with strong Asian influences, all prepared under the artful direction of a talented chef imported from Peru. The freshest seafood (with Peruvian ingredients) is given center stage; a range of dishes, from Peruvian ceviche to teppanyaki grill specialties, is offered in a chic, white-on-white setting, with indoor and outdoor dining. The resort's other restaurant, Baia Restaurant & Lounge, is also open to the general public—both by reservation only.
