“I love this place. I stopped here because it piqued my interest. I got the vegetable chaufa with added chicken and a choco bread pudding to go.

Absolutely fresh and delicious. I loved the pink sauce added into the chaufa, it was so sweet and added a nice touch of a different flavor. One employee and asked me how it was and explained how the pink sauce was made.

The place is so warm and cozy and the people that work there are so friendly. One of the workers had given a postal worker a drink for free while they were dropping off the mail. It was such a nice act of kindness that warmed my heart.

I can't wait to go back!“

“Authentic Dominican food, you get a lot of food for the value, and the staff is lovely and very helpful. There is a big selection of food options. We liked everything we had, I especially liked the avocado salad.

They have all the available food on display, cafeteria style, but they serve at the tables and the food is hot when it arrives. They have plenty of tables and free parking in front.“

The only thing I didn't like and this goes to the owner, we ordered some chuchitos and with a plastic fork, the soft drinks in plastic and with a plastic straw, please compatriots, let's cut down on plastic, we are not comfortable and even less lazy, let's help the planet and Reduce plastic, it helps the restaurant look a little taller and more sustainable.“

“Ordered a "Casado with Churrasco"The steak was cooked to perfection. Had this with a Russian salad. Nice portion and perfectly seasoned. Thought maybe it was a fluke so went back a second time. Everything was the same...perfect...again. It is an unassuming hole in the wall but wow. Can't wait to try more of the menu though I will be getting that again.“

“This latin American restaurant was easy to pick up from and the owner made my plate herself. She asked me what i wanted to eat & there was a lot of food left over. They had steak, fish, beef and chicken, 5 different rices and sides. I chose roasted chicken vegetables rice and she threw in some extra! The food was flavorful and made with love“

“I placed an order on GrubHub A day after Thanksgiving. For Dominican restaurants a lot of restaurants usually dedicate certain days for certain dishes, such as stew or soup because of the process it takes however, today I was really sick and the owner of the restaurant was kind enough to make a soup from scratch for me. When I placed the order on GrubHub, I placed an order for soup however, in the caption, it did say that there was no soup for today since today is a Friday. But my vision was so blurry that I didn’t even notice it. However, the owner called back and informed me and she immediately heard how sick I literally sounded and she told me don’t worry about it that she was going to make it from scratch. It’s just gonna take some time. Honestly, their food is really good. My sister orders from them a lot so that’s why I decided to order from them and they’re truly sweet.“

“A beautiful experience. The staff are welcoming and provided wonderful service. The food was absolutely delicious - the owner, Diana took the time to share the make-up of each dish; so many lovely flavours and wholesome ingredients. The atmosphere was also lovely. Warm, fresh and stylish. I am from Australia and I am so glad I chose to eat here. Grant“
