Dominican Restaurants near Harrison, NJ

“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!“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 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.“

“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 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 :)“

I never know what to get but it's always delicious!!! My favorite restaurant near me!!! 😍😍😍🥰🥰🥰🥰😋😋😋“

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

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

“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.“

“I work in Midtown Manhattan and everyone in the company has tasted the cuisine of So Good Cuisine LLC... we licked our fingers with that seafood ham and chofan... wow how delicious, just remembering it is a pleasure to the palate... Since then we have ordered our dishes holidays with them.. I highly recommend it if you want to eat well and look good with your guests.. they are super cordial and attentive to the details of the order… We went to the restaurant and it is nice and hygienic too.. It is decorated with love..“

“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“

“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...“

“Best DR/PR food in Montclair area hands down - seasoning/freshness/variety - portions are generous - Johan moves quick and takes care of you. Does catering also - stop by for a lunch and you will be amazed he's charging $8-10 instead of the typical $28 for the same. Gotta keep this guy in business!“

“Our company offered lunch for their employees every Friday. La Palmita was very accommodating and communicated well with what we wanted to have ordered. They came on time to Secaucus location. Food was delicious and employees raved about it. Will highly order from them again.“

“Seriously the best place! Reminds me of home! The empanadas are the best!!!!“

“I finally had a chance to try this spot. Sometimes as a African American you have trouble in places but not this place. It was clean and the service was friendly. I ordered 2 things the stewed chicken both were ample and good. The price for both platters was affordable. Good spot to check out. Ps get some pepper steak on the menu.“

“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.“

Overall, Toscana offers a fantastic dining experience with excellent service and delicious food. Highly recommended!“

“(Translated by Google) Like a delicious pigeon peas moro and a fried pork meat that they were for. Finger licking 10 out of 10 very tasty(Original)Como un moro de gandule delicioso y una cárnica de cerdo frita que estaban para. Achularse los dedos 10 de 10 muy rico“

“Good Dominican food and affordable prices. But I ordered a lunch special and asked for chicken breast. They gave me half of a chicken breast. They should be mindful of how much food they give. Overall the food tasted good, they have good prices and nice employees.“

“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????!!!!!“

“love love , Nothing but Family .....“

“Best Dominican Food!!! Chicharon are a most try.“

“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.“

“Great original Dominican food! Lots of flavor and great variety. 👍👌🇩🇴“

“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.“

“The gyros!!! And try the specials“

“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.“

“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.“

“Our horseback riding journey through the Dominican rainforests and beach was nothing short of enchanting. It allowed us to connect with nature, create lasting memories, and appreciate the simple joys in life. This experience will undoubtedly remain one of our most cherished family adventures.“
