“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 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.“

“My partner and I visited Rancho Caribeño and honestly it was an 11/10 experience! I enjoyed every second of it! What an amazing opportunity to ride in such a beautiful place. Also, I wanted to say that our guide was amazing! He understood that I am an experienced rider and allowed me to gallop up and down the beach, and also gave the confidence to my partner who is a novice to have a couple of canters too. These are memories I will always treasure, thank you for being the most amazing part of the holiday. I will never forget this!“

“I have been going to Minis restaurant for over 15 years and not once had I had a bad experience there. The food is incredible the service is on point and even when they are packed(which is very often) the ladies always keep up with me and thank me for my patience. The price for the quality of food is the best I have ever seen. I have ordered food at minis well over One Thousand times and the food always hits home. Even though I have moved farther away I still make the 35 minute drive to minis multiple times a week just because no other restaurants has the quality of food that they have. If I could give them 1000 stars I would. I love their food. I love the staff they are so friendly and loving. I highly recommend you go pay them a visit and trust me you won’t regret it!!“

“(Translated by Google) The food is very good with the typical seasoning of the Dominican Republic, very friendly attention, portions very tailored to the price, only the detail that remains of the place that does not have air conditioning, everything else is fine.(Original)Muy buena la comida con el sazón típico de la República Dominicana atención muy amable,porciones muy a la medida del precio, solo el detalle que le resta al lugar que no posee aire acondicionado,del resto todo bien.“

“se ven bonitos y deliciosos“

“Food is affordable, large portions and very delicious

Unfortunately the people in the area aka the ones who’s lives matter should be the only concern.

The fatigue is real with these people all over America but an angel must be watching over this restaurant“

“I don't go anywhere else for spanish food, the food here is delicious. I take the 25mins drive to be there for this food. The employees are beyond happy and helpful in everyway possible. I tell everyone about this place because it's a small place but the food is big!!“

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

“Definitely recommend their food it’s amazing. Feels like I’m back home the food is just delicious.“

“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.“

“Amazing homestyle Dominican food! There’s at least 5 restaurants like it on Monroe street in Passaic but this is still my favorite. There’s portions are always generous and sO affordable. I’ve come at all times of the day and their selection is always fresh and full.“

“I ordered through too good to go and it was an amazing experience! The food was so delicious and the plate was filled to the brim with food. The customer service was top tier and store was very clean and organized. Will for sure order from here again! Especially through too good to go because $5 for a plate is a great deal.“
