Dominican Restaurants near Belleville, NJ

“I love everything in there menu!! a They serve us so much food for cheap! yessss“

“I like the place, it's definitely as advertised Dominican food. I had a steak and onion meal and it was fairly good. The cut had a little muscle which normally you don't get with that cut but it was fine. They only had two avocados and they were not ready so they didn't serve them which was nice but it would have been nice if they had it. The drink selection is somewhat Limited, and they do not have a liquor license.The server spoke English in Spanish was gentle on the eyes and attentive to our needs. Perfect service.The place at the time was somewhat empty for no good reason maybe it just looked that way because it's very large. The area is very clean and was comfortable to eat in. I like how many windows there are.

Parking: There are meters outside which depending on the time you may or may not have to pay.

Wheelchair accessibility: Entering and seating appears to be wheelchair accessible“

“Can’t say enough good things about this place! The owners are wonderful people and it is such a great addition to saddle brook. Food is delicious, love the baked chicken and empanadas!
Place is also incredibly clean inside and staff is so friendly.“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exceptional service from Yanerys!

I had the pleasure of having lunch at Mary’s Restaurant, and the best part of my experience was the incredible service provided by Yanerys. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with a warm smile and made to feel truly welcome. Their attention to detail, kindness, and professionalism were beyond impressive.

Yanerys was very attentive! Yanerys is a true treasure for this restaurant.

If you are eating at Mary’s, I recommend ordering Yanerys—you won’t be disappointed! We will definitely return, thanks to your exceptional service.“

“Great food, great people, great atmosphere. Sometimes that’s all you need. Everything tasted fresh and well-seasoned, and the portions were just right. The staff was friendly and welcoming, which made the whole meal even better. You can tell this place puts their heart into what they do. I’m already looking forward to my next visit“

“The food was great it really reminds me of my moms cooking! The restaurant is decorated beautifully and really reminds me of DR. The service was also amazing all of the restaurant staff were so kind looking forward to trying more food here :)“

“We had chiccharones and goat stew. My Dominican friend said it was the best chicchones she ever ate. Another friend said the goat stew was excellent. I really recommend this place for flavorful food. The owner is so nice and made sure everything was good for us.“

“Great service good food 👍🥝“

“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!!! 😍😍😍🥰🥰🥰🥰😋😋😋“

“I was on the hunt for new food spots and stumbled across this gem. I went with my family, and let me just say—the food was incredible! I had the moro de gandules with beans and pernil, and the portion was so generous that one plate could easily feed two. My kids shared white rice and beans with beef stew (bistec), and they absolutely loved it.

Both women working there were super kind and welcoming—true hospitality vibes all around. 10/10 experience. I’ll definitely be coming back 😌. The prices are more than fair, especially considering how much food you get.“

“They Got Some Banging Empanadas And Some Good Milkshakes. They Also Have The Good Dominican Food Chimichurri, Mangu, Yaroa, Etc..“

“This place is soooo much fun weather you're going for lunch with coworkers or partying on a Friday night! It's great for friends, couples, parties, events. The food is delicious without breaking the bank and the staff is beyond courteous and helpful. 5 star, absolutely recommend!“

“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!“

“The food here is so delicious I wanted to shout and tell everyone from the top of a mountain. So here I am on Google. You must try the empanadas that comes with the best green sauce. I have very high standards for sweets and I loved everything I tried here. My favorite being the Alfajores. My husband and I had a lovely date night here. The entrees were a perfect combination of fine dining with a whole lot of soul. I want all the success for Libelula.“

“Really nice place to eat everyday, the 10$ meal is just really generous, if you eat a lot this is the place for you. I'm only speaking of 10$ meal. There are more things on the menu. Add a nice costumer service and this place is just great, I just had lunch in Newark, for ... like the same amount of food or less and it cost me 33$, I wish I was near Rancho Deli...“

“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“

“I can’t really speak to the service or atmosphere because I have only ordered for delivery. However I must say that this is the best food in the area, I have been trying different restaurants over the past year and everywhere in the area gives mediocre or comes up short. I can confidently say that the food here is really good! It is definitely a must try.“

“Generous portions and reasonable prices. The chicken stew and pork shoulder are great. Pair that with some beans and plantains for an excellent meal. Their empanadas are my favorite in the area. Perfectly crispy on the outside and moist on the inside“

“Food is amazing you want good Dominican food this is the place.“

“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.“

“The restaurant gets pretty busy at times. The food here is great but please work on the customer service here!!!!! If you order on the phone call back to make sure they get your order. I’ve called in advance 30 minutes and then come to pick up the food. The servers say they never got a call and will work on my food.“

I highly recommend this place to to everybody.“

“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.“

The authentic flavors, impeccable taste, and friendly staff create an unforgettable dining experience. Don't miss out on this gastronomic paradise!“

“Ordered the pernil and the bistek encebollado. We enjoyed both and the leftovers were even better the next day. We also tried the pan de bono. It was slightly sweet and warm and light cheese flavor. The entrees were yuge portions and yummy. We will return.“

“I loved it here the food was amazing great customer service, they had a lot of decorations and it was amazing. Loved it 10/10“

“This is a no frills, no smiles, no music situation but the food is amazing. The lady at the counter could look a little less upset, maybe they should play some music for atmosphere, because it’s like eating in a closet with windows. That said, the food is all that really matters. The rice is fluffy, the beans are perfect, and the stewed beef was the perfect addition. The lemonade is delicious and I’m pretty sure they make their own tres leches cake, it’s good but a tad on the sweet side. All in all, definitely worth a 2nd trip.“

“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!!!“

“Delicious ? and fresh made food ?.An awesome environment to eat in peace and it's a Christian place where the people are respectful and honest. God bless you all and enjoy ?Delicious ? and fresh food ?.An incredible environment to eat in peace and it is a Christian place where people are respectful and honest. God bless you and enjoy ?“

“The restaurant is so clean, the owner is so welcoming, and the food was amazing. My husband and myself loved the food. We would Definitely come back for more. Thank you for providing a great experience , and making very delicious food .“

“We truly enjoyed every drop. Gone in 60 seconds!! 😋“

“Yummy yummy.Great for when you forget to take the meal your wife cook for you to work.They have pineapples watermelons and other fruits on the go perfect for when you're just done with the gym.They also do catering which is on point plenty to choose from and they'll make whatever you want.I definitely recommend this place it's great for people like me that don't have time to make a meal so instead of eating boring McDonald's and all that other garbage around that area stop by check them out and if you like home cook meals then this is the spot. You're in and out within 10 minutes tops. You tried the rest now try the best. Always love to support small businesses especially that put time and energy into their meals and don't do small portions like most places you will get a lot of meat for your buck. I'd like to let you people know that I honestly enjoyed the food you guys cooked and always recommend them to my friends I am usually in Lodi so I take a drive down to Hackensack just so I can get the delicious meals that they prepare. I know I may be boring but my favorite one is chicken franchise "chicken with lemon" ?It is on point and I feel like I could eat that 100 times a day LOL. All right enough of me rambling just wanted to let you guys know that this is Justin certified“

“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????!!!!!“
