“What a place. From the moment you step inside, the atmosphere is one of a kind—eclectic, warm, and filled with treasures you can actually take home. But beyond the décor, Di Palma Brothers is something truly special.
I was here for a funeral reception, and I can’t imagine a better setting for such an occasion. On a cold, grey, and somber day, the ambiance provided a much-needed lift. It felt comfortable, welcoming, and infused with a certain lightness that made all the difference. And then there was the food—perhaps the best I’ve ever had at an event like this. As someone who is extremely picky about Italian cuisine, I was genuinely impressed. The pork chop Milanese was outstanding, the tiramisu and cannoli were perfection, and the fact that this level of quality was maintained for a catered party of 60 is even more remarkable.
Beyond the meal, the experience was enhanced by the unexpected delight of browsing through a collection of vintage fashion from legendary designers—Hermès, Chanel, Fendi, Versace, and more. It added a touch of joy and celebration that I know our departed friend would have appreciated. In fact, I can’t help but think she might have been looking down, wondering why we didn’t visit Di Palma Brothers sooner. She would have loved it.
For anyone considering this venue for an event, it’s worth every penny—not just for the food, but for the warmth, the experience, and the seamless way they turn a gathering into something truly memorable.”

Cocktail Bar
“We had a thoroughly delightful meal at Porto. Service was stellar, and the food was beautifully and deliciously prepared.
I’d been to Italy earlier this year, and our dinner tonight made me feel like I was back again, enjoying only the greatest hits of my trip.
The evening concluded with a night cap (or two) in the Blue Room Speakeasy upstairs, and as great as our meal had been, our experience upstairs was our favorite moment of the night, due entirely to the skill and presence of our bartender, Nina. Her cocktails were balanced and delicious, and her delightful, effortless charm added an unexpected enchantment to our night. Bravo!”

“Tienen rica comida y batidos a cualquier hora pero la picada no está buena. Tiene muchas papas francesas no tiene chicharrón. No tiene rellena. Y esta muy cara por unos pocos pedazos de pollo y carne!! They have good food and drinks at any time. However la picada is over price for some pieces of meat and chicken and lots of French fries. It’s missing pork (chicharrón) and Colombian sushi (rellena).”

“This was our first time coming here. My husband seems to know the new owner from a while back and was really craving his food. It did not disappoint! He came back home super happy that he got exactly what he wanted, the quality and flavor were amazing. The music was really good! Lots of salsa and merengue, as I left they started doing karaoke. The waitress we had seemed like she was new and did not know much in regards to the menu but we all have to start somewhere, she was very nice. We will be back again for date night !”

“The service makes you feel special—very warm and attentive, as if you’re a guest in someone’s home. The prices cannot be beat. I had a croqueta de jamón and found it bland. The cortado was heavier on milk than typical. The atmosphere was diner-like— not fancy, old school, embracing a theme of indigenous America including a very interesting & unique mural. Although I didn’t love what I ate on my first visit, I will come back if I’m in the area for a different meal.”

“Me having been in the this neighborhood five year, I would walk past this local bar regularly but recently I had noticed some construction inside followed by a name change. It got my attent but wasn't until a few months that I didn't actually go in and Covid did play a factor but man am I glad I did!!! Amy"s warm, genuine and warm greeting was a pleasant surprise. Then immediately you notice the open air lofty feel but with ever thing you expect in a classics traditional American bar. The perfectly sized newly constructed bar as you walk in on the right. Two midsize new pool table, the wall mounted monitor that can be seen from all angles, a perfect located dart board. But wait there is more. Amy who talked to us briefly about the new owners vision gave us the 5 cent tour ending it with the back yard. An oasis of a outdoor gathering area with tables, chairs and heater for those cool spring and summer nights entirely cover but a gazebo. Folks, Brass Rail 2 means business, they are built for you to come enjoy a beer watch baseball game on any of the monitors, play a game of pool, shoot some darts or just come and socialize with your friends or neighbors. Congratulations on building a nice local American Bar look I'm forward to spending time there unwinding after a good days work.”

“This place is a gem !
They’re open until 2 am so if you got the munchies and want some pupusas or tacos or a drink this is a good place to go or order out from. The pupusas are amazing and they got masa de arroz, which I personally like way more than maíz. If it’s just pupusas you can eat with like 10 bucks. The drinks do add up. Give them a try !”

No fanciness or pretentious attitudes here, just good pizza, good pasta, a good selection of entrees, good soups and sandwiches, good salads and sides, and a few good deserts. Friendly service and BYOB too!

“I did not grow up eating this pizza however I have been in the area for over 20 years and as of today my son also loves this place. It is your perfect mom and pops family oriented PIZZERIA and let me tell you it definitely brings me back to my childhood!!! With its delicious tomato sauce, it’s stretchy cheese and it’s just right dough.The service for many years has been very, very, very, very kind to its community as it does cater to the local schools and businesses. The owner has since changed… it is equally if not more so enjoyable now that I am a mom!!!It’s great to see when a change of ownership doesn’t mean it impacts what made this place our FAVORITE local pizza spot!P.s. my son would like to make sure that you are aware that he does have your traditional drinks/sodas I.e Sprite, Gingerale, orange soda, Gatorade, and water. There are no fountain sodas.”

“This is a review from June, but my party and I ate here twice while staying in the area. We got the traditional breakfast both times. Excellent food, great price, and the employees are very friendly. The portions are large and come with a lot of sides. I didn’t each much good food in NY, but if I were to visit again, I would absolutely patronize this restaurant again. Be aware there is limited street parking.”

“Yeah I got that at the Dominican Restaurant, where at?? Inside the Delta Gas station, sounds sus??
It’s definitely going to raise eyebrows, but let me tell you, the place looks fabulous you walk into a standard gas station convenience store, turn right it’s a wrapped up beautiful fully running restaurant.
Food portions are MASSIVE! A platter with pernil, congris $15 , 2 people can eat from this- or at the very least you’ll have leftovers- unless you’re bougie . The Pollo Guisado was juicy and tender not rock chicken, penil was good. The beans are absolutely scrumptious. We legit got 3 platters, extra rice beans, extra maduro, guineo and a morir soñando (freshly made to order!) check didn’t go past $60 .
Plenty of parking, restaurant is clean and bright, service was pleasant- will return!”

Amazing experience! The food is authentic and absolutely delicious, just like in Colombia. We tried several dishes and each one was full of flavor with that special homemade touch. My daughter and my wife were so happy that they already want to come back every weekend.
The service was excellent, very friendly and attentive, which made the whole experience even better. Definitely a place worth visiting and repeating.
100% recommended!”
