Dominican Restaurants near Bayonne, NJ

“First time here and the service was outstanding! The young lady was patient and so pleasant. The food looked beautiful and the presentation was excellent! My food was delicious I don’t eat meat so I had two types of rice, vegetables and both beans they had. My daughter had their quarter chicken with rice and beans. The prices are dirt cheap which is surprising considering the economy. I’ll return for sure!!!“

“From the first moment you arrive in this restaurant the stuff gives you a great feeling. Very friendly stuff, it is a kind restaurant to hang out with buddies or with your date. tasty meals, talented chef de cuisine, reasonable pay and attentive service. Highly recommended.“

“Dominican food, and what a treat! Large selection a la cantina (pick & mix), lots of stables and a joyful mood. I think i heard someone singing somewhere...But again; the food. Big flavours, hearty chunks of meat, crunchy salads, spiced rice. What a feast to the senses.A rare 5-star!“

“If you feel like eating Dominican food or rather with the flavor of our Latin America, you can come there, from the desserts and drinks to the sandwiches and lunch they are excellent, the prices are affordable and the quality of food is as good as the great variety What they have, excellent portions!!!“

“Great food and great service. The food reminds me of home and is reasonably priced. We keep coming back for the ox tail stew, ribs, beef steak, porkchops, dumplings and the boneless chicharonnes de pollo. Most meals are served with white or yellow rice and beans or vegetables. If you want to try something different, they have the beef liver and squid ink fried rice which remind me of squid ink Paella. The combination meals are a great option to try out different dishes. The staff and owners always greet you with a warm welcome.“

“Okay y'all this place does one thing amazingly....ONE THING. GET THE CHICKEN! Leave all the other traditional peruvian dishes to somebody else....they are hit or miss. That Verde sauce and fresh roasted chicken? Home run every time. Don't come close to closing because the chicken won't be as fresh. But even via door dash, that chicken was SLAMMING, BUSSING, and down right DELICIOUSNESS. Something done simply, but well, makes all the difference. Don Alex, I fux witcha!“

“The second you walk in the door, you're hit in the face with some of the most delicious, intoxicating scents of fresh cooked food! Great service. It is helpful if you speak or understand Spanish but not necessary. I don't and I still get great service. The food is always so good, hot, fresh. I never know what to get but it's always delicious!!! My favorite restaurant near me!!! 😍😍😍🥰🥰🥰🥰😋😋😋“

“This place is very clean, has nice staff, and cooks up pretty authentic Dominican food. I ate a delicious plate of tres golpes and received a fresh plate of food with a generous portion of mangu. Wish we had places like this on the West Coast. I will come back for sure next time I’m in NYC!“

“Every time I come to this restaurant I see firsthand how patient the employee whose name is Noemim ( I think!) is with all of the customers regardless of any language barriers, etc. I started coming here a little less than a year ago and because of her friendly conversations, I always get more excited when she’s the server lol. It’s so heartwarming to find a place that sells great food & great service in one! This place is truly lucky to have her! PS. The food always tastes as if you’re in DR lol. Great vibes!“

“I ordered from two good to go, which is an app that gives you discounted meals for less at the end of the night. They gave me liver which I’m not a fan of liver, but I gave it to a friend. I got potato salad. That was delicious a soup with pork in it and vegetables, rice and beans and a vegetable dish with okra and plantains. I will try out their fried chicken soon everything was packaged very good and the place looks very clean. A+

Parking: Very busy street and hard to find parking in“

“Zoralie is a neighborhood staple and tastes like your grandmothers cooking! We did catering from them for 125 people at a baby shower and everything was AMAZING! Our guest could not stop complimenting the food. They took care of us with the portions and price was definitely reasonable. We will continue to go to Zoralie for local meals AND use them for future events!“

I can confidently say that the food here is really good! It is definitely a must try.“

It was better than the big advertised restaurants. If you want a real delicious meal and some great music while you eat, go to this place. It's a hidden gem.“

“Local gem!!!! I have been coming here for years. I recommend my favorite, which is a chicken sandwich with the rotisserie chicken on hero bread with the lettuce, tomatoes, onions, jalapeño, mayonnaise and avocado. Your belly will thank you for the fulfilling-ness of this meal. I also get a smoothie with papaya, apple, pineapple, orange and cayenne pepper.
Staff is friendly and this a family oriented type spot. A total recommendation.

“Both the food and service are exceptional! I get the chicharrones de pollo and it’s truly outstanding. The chicken comes out juicy and so flavorful despite being fried down. The ladies who run this spot are the sweetest souls. I’ve been looking for a place to get some good chicharrones for awhile now and I'm so glad i found this spot. Food is also very reasonably priced!“

“I was in the area visiting a friend and I was looking for a good Dominican restaurant so I googled Dominican restaurant near me and this place came up and I went there and baby when I tell you they did not disappoint!!!! Food was on point .. I had the bacalao and white rice and beans..excellence taste I will be back….“

“NO JOKE! The best empanada I've ever had!!!Its golden, flaky pastry shell was perfectly crisp. The filling itself was chock’full of seasoned meats, onions, and a hint of spice. Every bite was a burst of savory goodness, making it a memorable and must-try treat for anyone seeking an exceptional empanada.

Vegetarian options: Cheese all day! Plenty of options for vegetarians.

Kid-friendliness: Some of the nicest people in the world run this store. They are friendly and what kid DOESN’T like empanadas????!!!!!“

“I love coming here! It's super eccentric and there are several unique paintings of the city (made by local artists and are for sale)! The food comes quick, and even when it's super busy there is never a long wait for a table. I have had a few different breakfast and lunch items here, and they never disappoint.“

“I want to get the bad out of the way first. I do feel the prices are a bit on the expensive side by a few bucks, especially for a local restaurant. They charge NYC prices. They should also make sure the menu prices match what they charge. I was going to take a star away for the price but what I write next will explain why I didn't.The food here is absolutely delicious. I have come here for breakfast and dinner and I am never disappointed in the food. The people that work here also seem very nice. I've never had issues with the service. The ladies here seem like they are in a good mood and they are working hard. All their food is good but I want to put my focus on their beans. I am a bean loving Puerto Rican and if you are a Latino restaurant that sells beans...they better be good. Well, this place has great beans. I appreciate the flavor and consistency of the beans. There are places that give you watery or watered down beans and it is a practice that I look down on because these places don't respect the details of the beans. As for my favorite dish, I am a simple guy and I enjoy their breaded chicken with rice and beans. I will also say that their version of arroz moro is absolutely great. So yes it is a bit more expensive but the richness of the food and the portions that you get will certainly make it more palatable. For this reason, I did not take a star away.“

“Quick food service, Beef stew was amazing with white rice. The place was not packed when I went, but as I was halfway with my meal it was starting to get packed. Good prices, great food.

Parking: It a hit and miss being it's on the main avenue of the shopping district. But don't let that deter you from going and enjoying a great homemade style meal.“

“Delicious food. Great customer service. Food and price good…enjoyed my time there.“

“The best customer service I’ve had in a long time came from BENNY!! I came in for breakfast and walked out feeling great. All positive vibes from this guy. I have to say food was really good!!! All on point. Define recommend and will go back.“

“It is a very cozy, fun place that feels like home.
The food always has a very varied menu, intense flavors, very fresh food.
Incredible dishes, I recommend the mofongo and the mangu with the three hits
And best of all, they have very good prices.“

“Their food is so fresh and delicious. Their customer service is very polite and friendly. I remember I left out the restaurant and got in my car and my sister dropped her whole tray of food in my car and I went back in and told the Cashier and she insisted on helping me clean out my entire front seat and helped me get all of the food out of my car. Then, if that wasn't kind enough, she then proceeded to give my sister a whole free new platter on the house. She was so humble and it reminded me that there are really great people still left in this world. She gave me hope of a new tomorrow with just that one kind gesture. I mean she cleaned out my entire car where the food fell all in my seats and on the floor. I will never have one bad thing to say about this restaurant. The food is absolutely delicious and it's the reason I started going here instead of Karina's. Food can taste great, but great service + great food is the ultimate goal. Thank you so much El Sabor Cafe !!! I will always choose you over Karina's. Even though I've gone to Karina's since I was 16.“

“The gyros!!! And try the specials“

“Si buen lugar acojedor y familiar“

“Great food the young lady that takes my order on the phone a nice person always gets it right when it's delivered it's delivered with great presentation the salad looks fabulous it tastes wonderful but everything that you order they show a nice presentation the amount is very generous the prices are really great but more than anything else these are DR people true DR are cooking the taste fabulous. I'm puerto rican but the Dominican food is a little different than the puerto rican food but it brings home memories of PR and DR when I used to go visit on vacation now I'm an old lady I don't travel much but going to this restaurant brings back great memories if you have the time pass by you won't waste your time or your money it's a great place God-bless all“
