what a gem for a lunch spot in Lowell -- for less than $15 you can get a healthy warm lunch in this Dominican diner !! come and enjoy your spanish speaking abilities or just point and smile -- and then savor the subtle flavored food ....

I had one of the best beef burritos of my life from this place today. The lady behind the counter was very nice and the business was clean. I signed in to Google after yers just to leave this review !!!

AMAZING portions for the price! As of April 2025, $15 will get you a LARGE plate heaped with rice and perfectly cooked meat. Sandwiches are equally worth the price, and their smoothies are fantastic.

Every time my partner and I travel to Lowell, this place is literally on the top of our list. The people are super sweet and patient when it comes to ordering (we also went an hour before close too) and the food... Holy, where do I even start? The mofongo is really yummy and not dry like other places I've been to in Boston. The Yaroa is the only thing my partner gets due to how yummy it is. For a Dominican restaurant, it reminds me of home cooking that my family would make when I was young. Truly an experience in itself. For anyone wanting to try this place out, super do so! Also, if you're a picky sweet tooth lover like myself, the cakes are really yummy. I've had tons of flan and tres leches in the past and honestly, this place does it right. ❤️

Love this place! Food is delicious and affordable, portions are more than generous, and the ladies who work the counter are very friendly! I go here every time I'm in Lowell.

amazing restaurant, been here twice now and it’s been a great experience each time. We’ve tried the ham and cheese pastelito, the chicken and the beef pastelito as well and i’ve gotta say they are the most flavorful and delicious pastelito i’ve ever had. we drove 45 minutes out of our way just to grab them today! we also decided to try the tres leches cake and it was amazing. i never make any reviews online but i had to for this restaurant. The woman who always takes our order is always so welcoming and friendly. for 6 pastelito and two drinks for $16.44 you can’t beat that price at all!

Really sweet and friendly people came after class and let me study for like 2 hours, order lunch, water and coffee.

The food was outstanding!!! Me and my friends had enjoyed it more than anything!! Wasn’t too spicy, wasn’t too strong and I honestly completely adored it!!!!

However they had a mouse running around and I’ll never visit again.

Good food, friendly staff, reasonable pricing. I ordered the steak w onions special which was enough food for 2 people. Tostones were freshly cooked and delicious although I'm more used to plantains a little less ripe. The steak flavor was delicious but a bit dry probably because I arrived shortly before closing.

My 6-year-old told me that this was one of his favorite lunches ever! And I have to agree that it is delicious Dominican food. The ribs, pernil, and maduros in particular were amazing.
