I ordered two empanadas that were super old. The chicken was extremely dry and black.

Overpriced compared to other locations. 3 % service charge added to your bill for using a debit or credit card. Chicken is good. Skip the pernil, wasn't good.

Deteriorated is not the word. This place is god awful now oversight must be limited to hudson county were you will get completely different quality. I worked in west ny and went almost everyday.. I was excited when it 1st opened and went often this place went off a cliff real fast dont waste your time or money drive to WNY if you like that much. They got to big to maintain quality.

As a Dominican.. this food sucks and over priced. The food I ordered was barely warm and dry. I ordered a natural juice that was $7 and I promise you there was nothing natural about it. I was extremely disappointed. Within the first bite I literally wanted to give my food back. Don’t think I’ll ever be going back.

Fried chicken was old and soggy, and overcooked. Mashed potatoes are crushed potatoes. No cream or butter. And the coleslaw tasted like it was old I threw almost all of it out

Been wanting to order from here but 1) no combos? Don't see anything that offers some kind of chicken/rice special. 2) noticed some items are different prices on the menu compared to online

Ordered Yuuka with oxtail and a piece of chicken and cook onions . The oxtail tail had lots of fat the yuuka was cold the onions where raw. All for a whopping 35.00 with a juice that was 16.00 only. The older female was very rude

I am new to.the restaurant and decided to ordered the basics chicken and fries. How can you do.wrong with that? It was horrible. Even my teenage son said it taste bad. I know.it was late in the evening if 6:30 is late If you cannot sell well seasoned food that has not been fried a few times and dried out then stop advertising. This was far beyond what I would have ever expected. Do better
One thing about John’s fried chicken everyday the prices are different. The large soup with a medium “small” rice and a can soda was 21 dollars… and I kid you not only two small pieces of chicken in the large soup
Please take notes on how everyday the prices change… makes no sense
If you to Three Monkeys at 400 Union ave in Paterson They have the same exact lunch and better flavor!!! For the price of 12 dollars !!!
I’m still baffled that I paid 21 dollars for a soup that doesn’t taste that great….

Wow, what I would give to leave a 0 star review. I needed to place a fairly large order (3 dozen empanadas) so I made sure to call the day before out of respect for the business. Tried 3 times but nobody picked up. Fortunately, I was able to order online via Menufy with a pickup time set for the next day. Minutes after I place the order, I get a call from the restaurant asking when I wanted to pick up that same day. That’s forgivable, especially since restaurants I’m sure are juggling online orders alongside in-store patrons. The next day, I call twice to confirm the pick up time - once in the morning and again 2 hours before pickup. When I arrive at 2:45pm (time I specified online and over the phone) I’m told I need to wait 5 minutes. The staff then proceed to start my order then and there. In a rush, I ask why the order wasn’t prepared in advance to which the employee responds, “what’s your problem?” He and the other employee then turn up their music, presumably their way of telling me to stop asking questions and keep glaring and rolling their eyes at me. In the end, I spend 25 minutes waiting for the food and don’t receive so much as an apology. I’m not asking for much, just a little decency and empathy when customers place orders in advance. We’re all busy with our own lives, but it doesn’t take much effort to respect others’ time, which is what I thought I was doing by ordering in advance. I’m no expert in operating a business, but I know this isn’t it.

I'm hoping because it was on a Sunday and it was the Paramus location i had a bad experience but will give it another chance. The staff on-site could not speak English so another Spanish speaking customer had to assist in ordering food. Thank you to the lady. I got a whole chicken which I would not have orderd if she could understand me because it was not fresh and very disappointing because you could taste 2 hours prior it would of been good. I also ordered oxtails which everything (all the food) didn't seem fresh, the only thing that allowed me to rate 3 stars was the yellow rice. I heard alot of good things about the Union City location which I will try but opening a store in Paramus when customers can go to Paterson and get any kind of Spanish food you can think of you should be more on point even on Sunday. I also wanted their famous fried chicken but it looked like it was fried on Saturday and just was sitting. No Bueno.
Delicious authentic Dominican food.
