Dominican Restaurants near North Bergen, NJ

“This hole in the wall serves tasty Dominican staples: rice & beans, pollo guisado, pernil, they usually also have a few soups on deck. The food is well-seasoned and the prices are very reasonable; super friendly service. Excellent homemade juices well: jugo de avena and morir soñando of course! I come here often and it never disappoints.“

“great people and music. if you want a quiet place , stay home 🏡“

“Haven’t been to the establishment, but both orders I’ve placed have been delicious. The fried chicken tends to be on the saltier side I guess it’s the breading,but the inside was well seasoned. Ive been looking for a dominican restaurant for a while and finally found it! Where I live they have one but I don’t know who lied to them cause their food is nasty.“

“Great food and great service. The food reminds me of home and is reasonably priced. We keep coming back for the ox tail stew, ribs, beef steak, porkchops, dumplings and the boneless chicharonnes de pollo. Most meals are served with white or yellow rice and beans or vegetables. If you want to try something different, they have the beef liver and squid ink fried rice which remind me of squid ink Paella. The combination meals are a great option to try out different dishes. The staff and owners always greet you with a warm welcome.“

“Absolutely amazing!!!!!! Came here for a quick dinner before the Post Malone concert in citifield and it clearly stole the show. Servers were so attentive and the food was made with so much love. They were so nice and the owner is actually a famous voice actor.“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 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.“

“We had chiccharones and goat stew. My Dominican friend said it was the best chicchones she ever ate. Another friend said the goat stew was excellent. I really recommend this place for flavorful food. The owner is so nice and made sure everything was good for us.“

“Excellent!“

“such a great gem in the heart of Brooklyn. cocktails are great. nice happy hour.“

“Washington Heights location. Huge portions. Service was great. Was seated right away. The mofongo y churrasco was so yummy.“

“Es el mejor, la atención, la amabilidad 💯“

“Truly a neighborhood gem. Visited here many times and never disappointed. Great prices and consistently great prices. I usually get the chicken chunks (boneless) but I had the chicken mofongo instead, my friend ordered the cheese monfongo. My mofongo was great, wasn’t expecting to have two nicely fried pieces of chicken as a garnish, I also like that the mofongo portion wasn’t huge and comes with a side of salad (great for such a carb-heavy dish). Great flavors, but would’ve loved to taste a bit more garlic. The consumé that comes with the mofongo adds all the flavor you need.

Service was okay, atmosphere is nice and it’s great that they accept card and cash.“

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

“I ordered delivery from their website. No third party delivery service and it felt GREAT! I just paid for my food and gave a tip to the delivery person. I am so grateful that El Tina’s still does this.

We ordered the oxtail. It was delicious! So meaty and full of flavor. We also ordered the pernil which was very tasty and tostones with garlic sauce.

The food came piping hot and quickly. I cannot wait to order from Tina’s again.

Thank you for being such a great place in Riverdale.“

“Karaoke night was great But need it more space for dancing“

“This is an excellent Dominican spot close to Fort Lee that I will be a regular customer of going forward. Like the other reviews say, the flavor, quality, service, portion and prices are ALL on point here which is rare. Hopefully things don’t change anytime soon“

“Everything is great here!“

“the rotisserie chicken is grestrice a peas nice my favorite spot 😋“

“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“

“I was working in brooklyn for the day. I searched up Dominican food, and El Manjar came up. I live in CT and i will be returning. That food was the closest tasting to how my grandmothers cooked. The service the food and the environment were to notch.“

“This place is the real deal, dominion republic buffet at a great price. Coming from London we were well used to Jamaican rice and peas etc, but this is on another level altogether , amazing hearty food at great value. Friendly staff and full of locals, give it a go you won't be disappointed.“

Only thing I wish they had was Large cups sizes for the morir Soñando 🤣“

“A Home Run of flavor I just devoured at Lugo's Restaurant & Lounge, and I'm still reeling from the culinary hat trick. This dish is the MVP of my food here - succulent shrimp, indulgent lobster, and tender skirt steak join forces to create a flavor trifecta that will leave you screaming 'Triple Crown!'

The shrimp was so juicy, it practically swam onto my fork. The lobster? Butter-tender and begging to be devoured. And don't even get me started on the skirt steak - cooked to perfection and practically singing 'Take Me Out to the Ball Game' with every bite.

Lugo's Triple Play is a grand slam of flavors, a culinary World Series champion. If you haven't tried it yet, drop everything and get to Lugo's - your taste buds will thank you. Five stars, ten stars, a million stars - this dish is the real MVP."“

“July 8 2024 order some rice and 2 porkchop the lady gave me 2 ham steak which was very salty not too please at all so when you order make sure it's what u ask for I don't speak Spanish!!!!!“

My daughter and I love this place. It’s in our top 3 locations in NYC! We have visited more places than you can imagine so this means a great deal.“

“DELICIOUS! Best mofongo & chicharron in Manhattan. Takes exactly like the one in PR that my family serves me. Everything is so flavorful and juicy and the chicharron is so incredibly crispy but still fatty. Was perfect for takeout and I’ll def be going back all the time“

“We truly enjoyed every drop. Gone in 60 seconds!! 😋“

“The best Dominican food in the area“

“This place is soooo much fun weather you're going for lunch with coworkers or partying on a Friday night! It's great for friends, couples, parties, events. The food is delicious without breaking the bank and the staff is beyond courteous and helpful. 5 star, absolutely recommend!“

“Oh my goodness, Went got food from here twice & both visits it has been fresh, flavorful & juicy (not dry or salty). Best fried chicken in the area for me! Better than Kennedy Fried chicken ? & I’d rather walk from dyckman to this spot on 207th for this chicken. It’s worth it ❤️

Kid-friendliness: They have wings,drum sticks & French fries incase your child can’t eat thick cut tostones & huge thighs.“

“Service was quick and food was good. Recommend this spot. Get there early they look like they get busy“

“To the cook and the lady at the register, thank you very much for the amazing food I got tonight. I even got a nickname, which makes me very happy to be able to walk into a location where I’m not treated just as a customer. I’m also treated as a family. Como me llamo la muchacha mas que rueda gracias a ustedes de parte de mi y mi familia“

“I had a construction project in the neighborhood so i decided to try some Dominican food. I chose the right place; food was delicious. Even the girls didn't speak much English but they try their best to communicate with me.
Bathroom was extremely CLEAN !
I recommend this place to eat your lunch.

“Sabor Latino has amazing typical Dominican dishes. The flavors remind me of a home cooked meal. The portions are very generous and the prices are affordable. I have tried several dishes and have not been disappointed. I recommend Sabor Latino if you are in Passaic and the surrounding towns.“

“I’m Puerto Rican and when I’m feeling homesick (often lately) I come in for a feast. Best rotisserie chicken, perfect seasoning, tasty crispy skin. Arroz con gandules is my favorite but the congris (black bean rice) is a close second. Also, I have a severe gluten allergy and have never had an issue! Love this place!“

“everything and the excitement service the staff super nice and attentive love Juanas' im a happy customer for more than 30 yesrs❤❤❤❤❤“

“Friendly people, Great customer service. The food is good and made when you order so you know it's always fresh! And the prices are affordable considerating the neighborhood. Definitely recommend this place. It's been in the community for years!“

“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“

“Best tres leches in the world so soft & well made that you can really enjoy the flavors! The cake itself is Delicious I been a big fan of this tres leches for many years now & wouldn't change it for no other.“

“I stopped by this little restaurant and was pleasantly surprised by how good everything was. I ordered a mangú con tres golpes and it was absolutely on point, well prepared, flavorful, and just the comfort food I was craving. The jugo de Chinola was not overly sweet and it was just right and refreshing, as it should be.

The service was just as great. Yadira took care of us with a big smile, quick service, and genuine kindness that made the experience even better. For such a small spot, it really delivers in both taste and hospitality.
