Dominican Restaurants in Bronx, NY

“I had a great time here. We were served by Carina, and she was awesome. Very attentive, she brought our order out quickly. The food was delicious. It's nice to go to a place that serves well and is affordable. The atmosphere was peaceful, and the music was good, not too loud so you could still hear your waiter. Overall, it was an amazing experience in the neighborhood.“

“This is my favorite local spot, the staff is the best & the food �������“

“The food here is very good. I personally like their "Ropa Vieja" dish. They make it excellent!“

“If you're looking for some of the best Dominican food in the US, it's here - down a few steps, in this pool hall. Everything was delicious, and I absolutely loved the habichuelas (beans). The gallina was tender to the point it was falling off the bone, and the rice was fluffy and full of flavor. This is truly a place where you can taste the love.“

“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.

“I’ve been visiting this restaurant since I moved to the area, and I truly have nothing but great things to say. I’ve come during different shifts, and the staff has always been kind and helpful. I usually visit at night, and Wendy is typically my server — she’s always attentive, friendly, and makes sure everything is perfect.

The food is amazing, and if any mistakes are made, they’re always willing to fix them quickly to make sure you’re completely satisfied. Overall, I highly recommend this restaurant whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or stopping by for lunch during the less busy hours :)“

“The food here is decent but it depends what you order. The empanadas were on the smaller side and were cold. The beef one was good but the chicken one was dry. The chicken stew was good and they gave me a lot of it. The portion sizes and the way the food is cooked always varies and it’s never the same which is disappointing. For two empanadas and a chicken stew platter with rice and beans, it came out to $26, which I thought was a little expensive.“

“Super delicious staff are so nice“

“The best chimis in the Bronx;quality, hygiene, and good service😋👌“

“Lady Black Flower And Popcorn 🤘🏾The Service Was Amazing 🤩“

“The customer service here is great. My son and I always come here , for breakfast or lunch to service is great.Joanna the lady behind the counter is a lovely lady.This is a family own so it seems. They are all wonderful people and I recommend this place to all.“

“Johnny's fried chicken is the best“

“Had a really great experience here from the moment I walked in. Everyone was genuinely friendly and welcoming, which immediately made the place feel comfortable instead of rushed or overly formal.

I actually came in looking for a specific dish that had been recommended to me, but I completely forgot the name of it. The staff member helping me was incredibly patient and helpful while we tried to figure it out, and they ended up pointing me in the right direction without making me feel awkward about it at all.

The food itself ended up being excellent. Everything looked fresh and well prepared, and the flavors matched the presentation. You could tell care went into both how the meal was made and how it was served. It had that balance of being satisfying and flavorful without feeling overly heavy.

What stood out most was how easy and pleasant the whole experience felt. Good food is important, but friendly service like that is what really makes a place memorable and makes people want to return. Definitely somewhere I’d come back to again.“

“Kind of a soft five for this one because we actually didn't get around to trying any of the food but everything else was amazing. Was here with David and Lukas on a Wednesday afternoon from about 3PM to around 8PM and we had 6 coronas each while watching the world cup. The beers came out to around just over $4 per bottle. Would come back here many times over“

“The staff is SUPER helpful and patient. I am handicapped and they really took their time to help me with the menu, accessibility, and securing my food 😋
I would definitely recommend to anyone whose unsure of what to eat, family with different eating habits, and those with munchies too🤩
Family friendly as well.“

“Best food in the 161 court area of the Bronx. Hands down. I also used them to cater my holiday party and the food was Top notch !!! Also the everyday food menu is extensive so there's something for everyone and the sandwich guy is official !!“

“Great food & the service is great ....Waiters are always smiling...Great atmosphere“

“I call July 2 2022 because in 2008 I was realized to university 1812 Palisades for sing sing my birth day is at the end of this month I wait year to years after living there to find out if I had kids from that house so if I do I want the relationship to go there me and my sister's and brother had. To find out if I can't make it I don't wish meals“

“Delicious food and always happy people“

“Just had soup. Very good. Employees very nice, good service. Reasonable prices. Very busy. Little tables. Comfortable, nice atmosphere.

Kid-friendliness: Place is friendly to everyone.

Wheelchair accessibility: All ground level.“

“Great food and it’s all super fresh. They even have a different menu based on the day of the week. The owner Georgina knows everyone’s name who comes in and is so nice. Really a great neighborhood spot.
I got a huge portion and a glass of wine for $22“

“I Order the pernil with rice and beans and Platanos. I always get a dessert. I’ve ordered just about everything on the menu already. They have individual servings and for groups. I recommend to friends, family, businesses and group gathering’s. They never disappoint. Been a loyal customer for over 20 years now. I always get wine. Beautiful decor welcoming clean amazing fast service“

“Higher prices than other similar restaurants yet the service and quality make up for it. The place is nice and has a bar with a lot of food options. Breakfasts best plate is Mangu with morir soñando and lunch would be Oxtail with rice,beans with a small salad
And tostones.“

“What a hidden gem this place is! The food is great—the beans are nice and thick, not watered down like at many other places in the area. I had the stew beef, which was incredibly flavorful and not overly salty. The rice was perfectly soft, not hard or oily. If you’re like me and appreciate food that is cooked properly, this is the place to go. I will definitely be coming back for more!“

“Excelente lugar para una buena reunión“

“Ordered the family meal with bistec encebollado which my family loved, the white rice could have been better, there was a staple on the bottom of the rice, I am to assume they were grappling and one flew to the tin, not a big deal the family loved the food.

I ordered a mofongo de cerdo, it was not the best; the pork had rib pieces (which I have never had pork like this with mofongo) and the meat was
burnt beyond being edible, I wish the mofongo was more garlicky, the sauce was yummy but again the burnt pieces of pork was somewhat disappointing. If you are a monfingo enthusiast, please do not get your hopes up.

I ordered for delivery.“

“I STOP IN FOR THE FANTASTIC FOOD,ESPECIALLY THE RICE DISHES AND ROTISSERIE CHICKEN. ITS THE BEST...IM SO GLAD ITS SO CLOSE TO MY HOUSE BESIDES THE STAFF IS VE R Y NICE AS WELL“

“Google this spot came up. We pulled up place looked invited. The staff was engaging. The food was being freshly made my guy on the grill doing the Spanish style jerk chicken without the heat. The chicharon was moist and delicious. The steak my friend had was nice, plantains was right. Hey, going back very soon.“

“the best spanish food around at a reasonable price“

“La comida es buena, tienen buen Parqueo, pero el servicio de las camareras es pésimo, pero horrible, parece como si no le pagaran, como si uno va fiado, siempre aburrirás, pocos atentas, paran encompichadas como si estuvieran en un patio de RD, y eso que la RD se caracteriza por su gente. Mejoren eso por favor, que es un buen negocio.“

“Honestly, this is one of the best Dominican restaurants in the city, but what really won me over was the beans. They're so good and I never really go for beans at most restaurants. Only thing that holds them back is the lack of chicken on occasion.“

“I’ve ordered the food from here several times and though I’ve never physically seen the place the food usually tastes the same and I enjoy that consistency. Prices are good. The 13 dollar rotisserie is cool. I like the pernil and chicken chicharron, the potato salad is a great price and you get a nice amount. Only one time out of at least a dozen times the potato salad was sour and the mayonnaise was not fresh. The following day it was not edible. Other than that I’ve always had pretty decent experience.“

“I’m not usually one to rave about Dominican food because it’s what I grew up eating and what I cook regularly. But I had to leave a review. The moment I took the first spoonful of the sancocho, I was instantly reminded of my aunt’s cooking. It tasted like home. Absolutely delicious…this was everything.“

“I always wanted to try so I finally did. The chicken was soo good. I just wish they gave more wasakaka sauce. I had to ask for one instead of getting it automatically with my order. And they only gave one which isn’t enough for me to enjoy my chicken with. The plantains were good as well. Some were still undercooked I wish they fried it a bit longer . But other than that the chicken and plantains were pretty good🤤🤤“

“So, I came here because I was craving some Dominican chicken soup. They didn't have it ready when I went but it's fine. I ended up ordering the tripe soup. The soup was quite tasty and had a generous amount of vegetables. I had no problems placing the order and found the staff very pleasant and welcoming. It probably doesn't hurt to speak decent Spanish, but honestly, if you're in New York, speaking a little Spanish is helpful. Prices were fair and service was fast. All in all, I would recommend eating here.

Parking: Parking is a little difficult here, but what can you do?“

“Yesterday I placed an order for white rice, beans and baked chicken ❤️❤️it was not good it was great❤️❤️❤️I highly recommend it. Today I ordered the Mangu, salami and fried cheese. It is called the Spanish breakfast!! Can't wait to try it. The bad thing is that they have soooo many different gummies to eat that it is hard to choose lmao.“

“Absolutely love this spot! The empanadas, smoothies, and food are all incredibly delicious—fresh, flavorful, and made with care. You can really taste the difference. The prices are fair and definitely worth your bucks. They recently got new owners, and they’re doing a fantastic job. The lady who’s always there is so kind and welcoming—it feels like you’re being served by family. Highly recommend checking it out!“

“Half of the space is setup as a dance place. Romantic lighting, a bar, and dance music. It seemed very nice if that's what you want. But the music was very loud- if you were just there to eat. The food is delicious and the staff is extremely nice and professional.“

“Delicious… romantic… super clean…Thank you Yajaira for the great service!“

“I stopped by for breakfast at this Dominican takeout and restaurant. You can either order to go or sit in. The food was really good. I had mangú, and my friend ordered white rice and beans with chicken and plantains. The service was fast. The portions were generous. It’s a nice, friendly spot with great service and welcoming staff.“

“This place is a hidden gem. I wish I knew about this place earlier . I ordered the Beef Stew with white rice and beans and let me tell you it tasted like my parents made it. The stew sauce was saucing and it was thick pause . New customer for sure ! I recommend to come in and eat next time I know I will ! Don’t for get the Passion fruit juice !“
