“I Was Craving Some Real, Home-Cooked Food Like Rice, Beans, Just Something Filling & Comforting. Luckily, I Found This Spot On Yelp… And Wow, This Place Is A True Hidden Gem 💎. I Feel Blessed & Grateful That I Came Across It.

This Is Authentic Dominican Food Made By True Dominicans, And You Can Taste The Love In Every Bite. It Really Brings A Piece Of The Island 🏝️ Right Here To Maryland Just Minutes From DC 🇩🇴.

Parking Is Limited, But There Are A Few Spaces Directly In Front Of The Restaurant.

The Space Is Small & Intimate, But Very Welcoming. It’s Only Been About A Year Since They Opened, But It Feels Like A Place That’s Been Around Much Longer Because Of The Love And Energy Inside.

The Customer Service Here Is Top Tier!! 🌟

It’s Owned By A Husband & Wife “The Medinas” They Are Truly Special. So Warm, So Kind, & So Genuine. They Make You Feel Like You’re Being Welcomed Into Their Home For A Meal. 🥘

The Service Is Full Of Love & Care, You Can Feel Their Passion In Everything They Do. That Alone Would Bring Me Back… And Then The Food Just Seals The Deal Even More.

WHITE RICE 🍚, RED BEANS 🫘, AVOCADO 🥑 & GRILLED SALMON 🍣 {Build Your Own Meal} 🍽️
EVERYTHING About This Plate Was Perfect!!!!! 😍
The Rice 🍚 Was Cooked Just Right With The Perfect Amount Of Salt. The Red Beans 🫘 Were Rich, Flavorful, & Surprisingly Had No Meat, Which I Loved. *So Many Places Add Pork, But Here They Automatically Cater To Different Dietary Preferences Without Sacrificing Flavor.*
The Grilled Salmon Was Cooked Exactly How I Requested, Honestly Even Better Than I Expected. The Attention To Detail Was Impressive.
And Of Course, The Avocado 🥑 Brought Everything Together For That Perfect Final Touch, I Left So Full & Satisfied.

EXTRA SIDES:
TOSTONES WITH GARLIC 🧄
Double-Fried, Flattened Plantains Lightly Salted And Topped With Garlic Oil (I Requested This And They Delivered). So Good & Perfect With The Rice & Beans.

FRIED PLANTAINS 🍌
Made Exactly How I Like Them, Sweet, Perfectly Fried, & Not Overly Sweet.

CHEESE EMPANADA 🥟🧀
OMG 😍 The Cheese Pull Was Insane. Crispy Outside, Loaded With Cheese Inside, They Did Not Skimp At All, So Delicious.

MALTA 🥤
I Had To Get A Malta, A Traditional Dominican Drink That Paired Perfectly With My Meal. Sweet, Rich, & So Satisfying.

I Had To Try As Much I Could To See What I Would Like & Everything Was Amazing. I Was Overwhelmed Yet Beyond Satisfied. Literally Everything They Make Is Delicious. 🤤

Super Reasonable Prices With Plenty Of Options. Some Food Is Ready Buffet-Style While Other Items Are Made To Order. You Can Dine In Or Take Out But I Highly Recommend Sitting Down & Enjoying The Full Experience If There’s Available Seats.

This Place Is Something Special. Authentic Dominican Flavors, Amazing Hospitality, & Food Made With Real Love.💕

I’m Definitely Going To Be A Regular Here As Much As I Can. I Truly Hope They Get The Recognition They Deserve Because This Place Is Truly A GEM 💎.”

“best birria tacos 🤤🤤🤤🤤 recomend”

“spacious inside. some seating outside as well.. good place to eat, drink, and view art.”

“Every Saturday you can go here and get the Everfresh brand beverages and more. I go about twice a month to stock up for my family. The staff is very friendly and helpful.”

“It was a nice place to eat. The restaurant was clean. Food was really good. We were 6 adults with 5 kids and we didn't have to wait for the table. Service was really good too.”

“The best tacos and quesadillas I ever had”

“Cool concept it’s like +6 kitchens in 1. They offer a lot of different promos on social media. From Alana pizza, I ordered the burrata and the bacon pesto pizza. The burrata was really fresh and I enjoyed the pesto pizza. From Di Fara pizza, I ordered the pepperoni, sausage and meatball pizza. Not sure if it was dough or the pizza was undercooked, but I wish there was more of a crisp to the crust. I found myself chewing longer than expected.

Location was really clean and ordering via the app was easy. There’s plenty of street parking around the shopping center. Prices are high for the area. I would definitely be back to try some of the other restaurants.”

“comida súper deliciosa y una excelente servicio 👍🏻”

“limpieza desayuno calientito y rico cafe”

“A thoughtful shared plates experience. We followed the wise recommendations of our server and were rewarded. Nice spot. Excellent yet not pretentious.”

“Amazing! The staff was welcoming from the moment you walk in the door!! And the..Food was globally inspired with a twist, and beautifully displayed. Truly felt like a gift to stumble upon this establishment!!”

“I enjoyed the green zone, it had me flying high. Flying high when I tried their coffee drink. There was so much in it I don’t even know what to call it, but look at the picture, it looks delicious. I payed a pretty penny for it too, but pennies I got. This place cost a lot of green so bring your wallet, credit card too. Have fun, it’s good (at least their coffee drink is).”

“Must have the Mochi fantastic”

“The food is wonderful. We always eat here when we come up from Richmond, VA. The staff is great as well.”

“The drink menu is creative, telling how the drinks were inspired.

I had two drinks. The first one was “Summers, Horses, Dreams”, love this one, it is a twisted from lychee martini, adding green cardamom which is insane delicious. However, I think the drink need to be colder.

Second drink was “Little Hats and Fast Trains”, highball style with Mazapan foam, I believe this is a type of peanut candy, and tamarind flavor. The foam was tasty but the tamarind was tart for me.

The staff was really helpful and nice. The atmosphere and the vibe was okay, good for dating or go with your friend.”

“Fun night for two out of towners! Food was amazing and the staff were incredibly friendly, even though we’re two or three times their ages and not cool at all! ;)”

“Great food and excellent service. John was fantastic. 100% recommend”

“I stopped in with friends before a event Sunday evening. The staff was warm and welcoming. I had the lentil sambusas and a peanut-infused coffee at the staff’s recommendation. The food was fast and delicious- the sambusas were warm and spicy, and the peanut coffee was delicious! In a kind gesture, the chef sent over a sampling of sushi to our table. Fresh and refreshing, the sushi was a nice complement to my sambusas and hot beverage. I’m not on this side of town often, but now I have a reason to come back.”

“Delicious brunch and excellent service!”

“All of my experiences at L’Ardente have been phenomenal. The food, the atmosphere, and the service are all top notch!!!”

“We had a wonderful experience at Moon Rabbit. Several friends had recommended to go and it did not disappoint. The staff were friendly, the food was delicious. We went with the chef's menu. Will definitely be back.”

“Such a fun experience during our trip to DC. All the items we choose were outstanding and different . It was the highlight of our rainy day .”

“Amazing! The sushi tasting menu was exceptional and filling! Delicious and whimsical cocktails. Bar in the back, very hip and chic workout being pretentious. Wagyu beef skewers from the bar was one of the best things I’ve ever had. All the skewers were amazing and the fried chicken and other bar snacks are classic bar foods, but way elevated- can not wait for the rest of the space to open!”

“Dining at Albi was a special experience. We were lucky enough to book the Hearth table and watched the kitchen interact and prepare the food. The warmth and hospitality of the staff, not just with the diners, but with each other was sincerely heartwarming. Every dish was amazing and there was not a single thing we disliked. My personal favorites were the crab, dates and lamb with cinnamon. This is probably one of my favorite Michelin experiences and Albi deserves all the accolades given to it and more.

Edit to add: they had the best morning after goodie bag of all the Michelin restaurants!”

“Great ambiance, food and vibe”
