Every time I visit Onno’s bar I am always very pleasantly surprised – it feels like Onno’s is constantly striving to improve, by upgrading their furniture, the menu and innovating with special student’s nights, parties, DJ’s and now they’ve added weekly specials to their already impressive menu. When we first arrived at Onno’s, we were surprised to find that Onno’s has upgraded it’s decor – again! Has Onno’s grown up? We think so! New tables, combined with their new adult oriented cuisine (click here, to read our article on their new menu), it seems that Onno’s is doing a wonderful job of creating a far more upscale ambiance.
Having spoken to the young and energetic owner, Nathan Bailey, he informed us that the new look was indeed a serious attempt to attract the dinner crowd “having long been known as THE hot spot in Altos de Chavon and having recently added delicious seafood to the menu, we felt that by slightly changing the ambiance, we could create a more comfortable dining experience which villa owners, residents and resort guests could all enjoy – whether coming for a causal diner while watching the game or coming for a romantic evening.”
And now to fit in with their new image Onno’s bar has a list of weekly specials, which during our Casa de Campo Living review we were able to try! Of course, the weekly specials change every week, but here is what we tried:
BBQ chicken (RD$365.00) – saucy! This nice piece of chicken was saucy and juicy, coming with crispety crunchyety delicious onion rings!
Lemon and Garlic Shrimp (RD$825) – sauteed with fresh garlic and served with a bowl of golden-delicious looking French Fries.
Fish Fingers and Chips (RD$350) – about as close as you are going to get to fish and chips, a personal favorite of mine, which were perfectly dippable in a delicious tartar sauce!
Lemon Chicken breast with white rice – although at first glance this dish may make you long for a nice tan and a little color, the chicken did pack a surprisingly zesty lemony punch that had a few delightful undertones that gave the chicken a mysteriously intriguing flavor.
