I ordered dinner yesterday and came back for breakfast today. I ordered Tres Golpes (Mangu, salami, fried cheese, and fried egg) which is a Dominican breakfast, two guava y queso empanadas and a coca cola. The breakfast was very authentic and flavorful. The empanadas were good too. The staff is very attentive, greets you and takes your order as soon as you walk in. The place is very nice inside and you can grab a table to sit down and dine in if you want. The breakfast is better...

Came in on a Wednesday at ~0610. First time here. The lady was extremely welcoming. I told her what I wanted and she cooked it from scratch right away. Food tasted really good. And the price was very fair.

Great Dominican food in the Bergen-Lafayette area with amazing service!
Restaurant staff were very friendly and helped us order when we were overwhelmed. Everything we ordered were juicy and very well-seasoned, with very generous portions too. Definitely worth the money to come visit when you are in the area!
