What diners say — our read

Across 17 reviews, opinion here is genuinely mixed. Reviewers who mention how guests are treated rate this place 5.0 on average — it is working in the restaurant’s favour.

The split is 16 positive to 1 negative across 17 rated reviews. Conspicuously absent: wait times, which no reviewer brings up. 5 stars is the modal score, given by 16 of the 17 reviewers who rated.

The kitchen graded a C (73/100) on 1 high-priority, 2 intermediate, and 3 basic violations at its last inspection, which is roughly where the reviews sit too. That inspection was on March 25, 2026. Its inspection trajectory is downward over the records we hold. On health score it sits safer than 7% of the Osceola County restaurants we grade. Among the items recorded were cross-contamination and handwash sinks accessible.

Neither signal is decisive on its own here, which is why both are shown. Read the originals below and judge the pattern yourself.

    Punta Cana Restaurant es uno de mis lugares favoritos en Kissimmee. La comida siempre está excelente y, sin duda, tienen las cervezas más frías y los mejores tragos de la zona. Quiero destacar a Adri, la bartender y encargada de la terraza, por su excelente atención y gran energía. También a Jayali, quien siempre brinda un servicio amable y profesional dentro del restaurante. Ambas hacen que la experiencia sea aún mejor. ¡Excelente ambiente, servicio de primera y totalmente recomendado! 🍻🍹🇩🇴
