“Hey guys, listen to what I'm saying.There is no need for anyone to look anywhere else. This is definitely the spot. Excellent food, nice place and beautiful people. If you order a full tray of food, trust me, you won't be disappointed ?. I usually take empanadas to my coworkers in NYC, and they love them. Thanks to Nossa Aldelia Bakery. And by the way, they make some amazing pastries.Thanks ? Danny Rodriguez“

“Me encanto la comida y buen trato al cliente“

“Muy buena comida y agradable ambiente me gusto“

“The best chimi I’ve had. The meat is exceptionally seasoned, you can taste the oregano and tartness from the lime or vinegar, and it’s perfect on salt. Whoever thought on putting it on a brioche bun, it’s a genius.

Don’t sleep on the picadera too! The pork carne salada is so good and they put wasakaka sauce all over the meat. The tostones are not drowned in oil and are so crispy.

The only shame is that I live 45 minutes away and can’t eat here more often. But whenever I’m in Perth Amboy, I grab a chimi from here.“

“I had a wonderful experience here! I ordered the white rice with baked chicken and beans — everything was cooked perfectly with great flavor. The environment is warm and welcoming, making it a must-visit spot. What made it even more special was the uplifting atmosphere filled with Christian music at its finest. A place where you can enjoy both delicious food and a peaceful, joyful setting. Highly recommended!“

“Best place to eat cuajito. Their arroz con gandules had such a great flavor. I loved it! I am going back this weekend for my Anniversary. Woo hoo!“

“Street parking but it's plentiful for the area so you won't have any issues.

The interior is beautiful with lots of photo opporunities inside.

Their cappuccino is just right. Guava pastry is good. They have empanadas and other patry items like cupcakes, brownies, macarons, etc.

Worth a stop if you have time and are in the area.

They make cakes for special occasions as well.“

Great portions and a huge selection of provisions and meats, hot and cold sides! Great service and recommended by the folks at the store near the laundromaut.“

“I LOVE this place! My job chose this place for Appreciate Month. The cook and cashier was so nice, that they made Eggplant for me even though it was a Lunch Special, because I came to them in the evening. The food had a lot of flavor but I wish the beans wasn't so watery. You get more water than beans. Overall it's worth the money, I definitely got a bang for my buck. I'll be back because ? is one of my favorite veggies. ?

Vegetarian options: Eggplant“

“el mejor payaso mago Dominicano 732 621 9305 recomienda a este restaurant excelente .“

“I had been coming since 2021 the food is delicious! I did notice the prices went up a bit, I like how you can come in and pick whatever you want to eat for a quick bite of hardy food. It's already made and they have my favorite all time starch Yuca w red onion! 😋 Sometimes I have to speak a little Spanish to tell them what I want but the cashier is very patient with me and nice. You ALWAYS get your money worth because they give you a lot of food.
Update: They forgot my sides, they're normally good, Idk what happened but I ordered from DD.“

“Just got 2 baked haddock take-out dinners for my husband and me and we were both blown away. Also got a spicy stuffed quahog and it was perfect. All the food was hot and fresh. Highly recommend!“

“Delicioso sabor dominicano en NJ.“

“Somerset needed a bit more flavor and Punta Cana Grilled serves us just that! The atmosphere is bright, enchanting and flowed with a tropical style. Their service was amazing and food was delicious. Portions are enough for two people. Empanada was a bit, I purchased the beef one. I was bummed because I only brought one, but I will be visiting again.“

“Had the pollo guisado and maduras from Sabor Dominicana and it was absolutely delicious! The chicken was so tender and flavorful, and the seasoning was just perfect - true comfort food!!! Server was very attentive and kind I had a fantastic experience. You can really taste the authenticity in every bite. I will definitely be back again!! ☺️“

“If you are Dominican, don't look to the side, you are in the wrong place, the attention is incredible, the food and the chimis are great, the only bad thing is that they don't have bathrooms, they tell you that the beggars outside use them and that's why reason you can't use it, but going to a food place without bathrooms is crazy, SUPER NEGATIVE“

“Gran calidad y la excepcional atención“

“Love the food here they definitely give ample food for the money. Dining area is rather small I always do take-out. Food is served tray line style so you're able to see and select your menu items. It can get very busy at times due to the small serving area where there's usually only one person taking orders.“

“The Restaurant takes alot of pride in satisfying their customers. I placed a delivery oder and it was wrong 30 minutes later it was replace and delivered. No hassles or issues. Thank you Don Manuel.“
