I made reservations to bring my husband today July 18, 2023 (Father’s Day) for brunch and when we arrived, I was told my table was on the sidewalk/street because I chose “outdoor” instead of “standard” when the reservations were made. While I was waiting outside to resolve the issue, you can smell the sewer and people smoking weed on a balcony/building next to the restaurant. This is the 3rd time I come to this place and I’m turned away. Mind you, I’m coming all the way from New Jersey!!! This place is so overrated, don’t waste your time coming here. The food can be delicious but if you give me bad customer service, it’s OVER. They didn’t even try to accommodate us, they said that I can wait 45 minutes and see IF someone cancels and the hostess walked away. Third time coming here and didn’t even get to go inside AGAIN! That’s is def a sign. Never again!!!!! Giving this place -0 stars.

Overpriced, definitely have had better Dominican style comfort food for way less. They refused to sit us at a table alleging reserved tables however the tables were empty during and after my dinner. Not a place where you can expect ADA accommodations. I saw a person in a wheelchair turned away. No space for wheelchair in the dining area or bath room. The food was mediocre with very little gusto. I had the Skirt steak with coconut rice but they forgot to add the coconut flavor. While I’ll admit the skirt steak was tender it missed the flavor test. For god sake don’t order a piña colada, full of ice cubes and pineapple juice. I felt it was made by a child. While I’ll admit the setting looks inviting with its flowers, wood decor and graffiti style art, the vibe dies there. The staff looked physically exhausted but they tried. The outdoor dinning also missed the mark as it was not open for dining. Not sure if I will visit again. The best part of going there was discovering the Cake Burger place down the block.
