Dominican Restaurants near Far Rockaway, NY

“I go to this restaurant whenever I come to Farrock to get my hair cut usually. Since I've been coming I've stuck to the shrimp mofongo which I can say is extremely good. This past Sunday I decided to switch it up and try the red snapper and boy was I impressed! They have some of the best Spanish food I've ever tasted.“

“We were supposed to eat at another restaurant, Anny, but when we got there, they informed us that they would only accept cash. Yet there was no ATM. We started walking on 116th, looking for an ATM. Instead, we found this place to eat. It's a buffet style place with only one booth style table. The best thing was that the food was good and the price was right.“

“Wonderful cuisine service is excellent“

“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.“

“Always busy, clean. Good prices. I have noticed overtime Walmart breads are salty/high in sodium. Whenever I eat I feel so very thirsty. I don't get that feeling at eating bread from elsewhere. Anyways I go there mostly for car oil and Gatorade.“

“Absolutely delicious food & great service! We come from Smithtown Long Island and it’s worth the trip every time never disappoints!“

“This is my go-to Dominican spot. Great good for a great value. I've never had a bad meal. Although the quality of certain items isn't consistent, I've never left without finding something that looks and tastes delicious. I always recommend the chicharrones.“

“The Absolute Best Dominican Restaurant in Nassau County! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Lucas Dominican Restaurant is hands down the most delicious and flavorful spot in Nassau County! Every single bite is an explosion of authentic Dominican goodness, from their perfectly seasoned pernil to the mouthwatering mofongo that melts in your mouth. Their portions are generous, their service is warm and welcoming, and the food is always fresh and made with love.

I often order for my team at Luxurious Beauty Studios, and they absolutely love it. The quality and consistency are unmatched! Whether I’m bringing my family for a sit-down meal or grabbing takeout for the spa, Lucas never disappoints. The arroz con habichuelas, tender pollo guisado, and tostones are simply perfection.

If you’re looking for real Dominican flavors, home-cooked quality, and a restaurant that treats you like family, Lucas Dominican Restaurant is THE place to go! Five stars are not enough—I’d give them ten if I could! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“I love this place but on Uber eats nah, they will not do your food for Uber eats after 8:00 and if you feel like walking to the spot and you’re close by excellent service but don’t order food after 8:00-8:15 they will definitely cancel your order!“

“Guys so first of all I googled this place I went of your reviews thank you and it did its job it was delightful the rice nice and fluffy well done the beans smelled like grandma had just made them the baked chicken was good and a side of salad“

Steak shrimp even my picky 8 year old loved it. I love the burgers 🍔 😋 worth every penny ..“

“excelentes recetas son muy buenas“

“The place was nice, the service was good, and it would have been nice to see the menu with the prices. Our order changed from $28 to $42 dollars and we were not too happy about that. It's okay. We may come back and we need to save money for that. The place felt more like a bar.“

“NEVER had a bad meal! NEVER! From their Chicharrones de Pollo to Pernil, Arroz Amarillo con Frijoles, Maduros, Tostones, Ensaladas, Sopas, etc.
Customer Service is quick, pleasant and generous.
You will not leave hungry! Everything is seasoned WELL and reasonably priced. Street parking so be mindful.“

“What a great food establishment. I’ve lived on the same block at this restaurant for years and have always enjoyed their great tasting food. Food is always fresh as they cooked daily. Best if you go order early because they sell out fast. They have great menu selections. Staff are always friendly and the portions are very good. Highly recommended.“

“My Titi Delilah recommended it, It’s good. Good people. I saved a bee; they always follow me even in winter. They even tried to find a paper but I thought fast ripped the paper….there you go. Bees especially aren’t supposed to be killed. If they go the world goes remember that.

Kid-friendliness: They have some good looking fried chicken Spanish style so you know it has the right amount of flavor. Watch out Popeyes.“

“That ai poyo is delicious ? ? and that ripe banana with coconut oil ? that spicy poyo is delicious wao k chicken ? I give you my fingers ? uuuu

Vegetarian options: To the many barieda

Kid-friendliness: Follow and table“

“El Sabor de la Esquina is a fantastic find! The food was fresh, authentic, and bursting with flavor — truly felt like a taste of home cooking. The staff was warm and welcoming, making the experience even better. Highly recommend for anyone craving delicious, genuine dishes in a friendly, casual atmosphere.“

“This is a small restaurant but full of flavor, the food is very fresh and delicious. A breakfast ? or lunch is perfect here, it is not expensive, I highly recommend the meatballs, they are delicious and when they make tail, my mouth waters. I recommend you try it, and the ladies who serve are very nice and attentive, they don't make faces or have an attitude at all, I really love it“

“The food is acceptable but what I liked the most was the sweet plantains that I bought for my whole family. I have given it many chances and I kept buying it but it doesn't improve. It tastes horrible. The bananas are sometimes semi-green, not sweet at all, without any flavor. and they make the pieces smaller and at $5 I wouldn't mind the price as long as it was delicious but it isn't like that I hope they fix it“

“Whenever I want some delicious food, I have to stop in here!!! Their chicharrones, beans, white rice with sweet plantains with some delicious pernil and a jarrito, are amazing! The girls are really sweet too.

They also cater if you're having a get together! 10 stars **********“

“Great spot, solid basic food, no frills, fast service. One of the few places you can eat decently without getting a ton of plastic (they serve food on plates with metal utensils). And they don't raise their prices every few months like Claudette's, Super Burrito, the bagel place on 96th, everywhere on the boardwalk, etc.“

“New customer here. This restaurant was recommended by the JP auto people and it did not disappoint.

Context: The stars represent the real value of place, not to say the five star for food here compares with a 5 star Michelin rated establishment that cost 300 percent more.

I ordered half chicken half steak on Spanish rice with a country club Frambuesa Raspberry soda. The bill came to about 15 dollars with tip. They deserve more!

The food was delicious. Chicken was tender and marinated in a flavorful broth. The steak was similarly tender but had additional peppers and onions and other flavors that made it stand out. The rice was full of flavor and really could be it's own meal.

The service was exceptional and the woman at the front desk was very thoughtful and stepped through all the dishes they had to offer while giving great suggestions.

The atmosphere was good to. This is not a fine dining experience, but a local spot for and by locals. I could tell the people that team the business and the patrons of it were friendly and that created a really warm atmosphere.

I recommend you try this place out of you are even curious about Dominican and Spanish food or just want to support a local business.“

“Walked in for the first time today, and let me tell you the food options are great. I was treated with a smile and the staff was kind in explaining the portions , prices and food options. I took my order (Ox tail and arroz con gandules) to go. But once I got home and took that first bite (Aww Mann), I instantly knew this was only the beginning of many more food orders to come.As of now I highly recommend this place.Note: this is more of a takeout spot as they only have 2 tables.“

“Everyone here was so kind, the food and service was excellent. Bathroom was very clean, and the prices are awesome. One of the staff even patiently let me practice my limited Spanish with her. I have a week here, and I’m probably coming here for breakfast as often as possible.“

“I ordered a chicken soup from the restaurant with Uber Eats. The soup was absolutely delicious....BUT, there were about 7 noodles, 2 pieces of carrot one piece of chicken on a bone and that was it. It was very tasty but so skimpy. For $6, I expect some substance in my soup.“

“Visited S&A roti shop January 3rd, 2020 when we visited New York on our road trip. Met her son at the Nike store in Manhattan and he told us about his mom's place. On our way back to Florida we made a slight detour and I must say we were quite impressed on the taste and quality of the food and friendly service we experienced. We hope you come to Orlando and open a restaurant here as discussed when we visited. Sorry, it took a year to write a review. Roger, Marina and Josh“

“I visited El Ambiente Restaurant and Lounge on 4/14/24 for Latin Karaoke. We enjoyed our visit very much. The ambience is family oriented, nice decor, food and service was excellent, affordable, I highly recommend. I also found parking on the corner, which was convenient. Will definitely return to Eddie’s karaoke night!? My type of vibe!“

“the restaurant is good, it is about one or two years old and the food is very good. The only bad thing is the employees who are unprofessional and unfriendly. On the menu they always have a lot of variety of food, they make rice, beans, pork, beef, chicken, fish, salads, soups, for dinnin in and delivery. I live like 8 blocks away and every time l call to order it always arrives super fast in less than 20 minutes… they cook low in fat and are very clean. the only thing they have to improve is the service and the quality of the employees. they have to learn to know how to treat a customer and leave satisfied.“

“The staff is friendly. Been supporting them for years. Food is always on point. Sometimes the chicken is dry but very rarely. They have the beat tres leches cake in the WORLD! I always order a lot for special occasions and holidays, the lady that makes it is truly blessed, it is perfection.“

“It is my favorite place, I love it ? the service, the excellent food and the employees treat you as if you were family ? may the Lord Jesus bless you greatly.

Kid-friendliness: You can go with children ? it is an excellent place.“

“Todo en general mi primera vez ayer y estuvo todo muy delicioso las atenciones excelentes yo lo recomiendo 100% y lo visitaré más seguido me encanto 🥰“

“food and service excellent“

“Ordered takeout that was delivered. Great portion sizes, and with 6 orders, it felt like a pallet full of food! Ordered the roast pork, rotisserie chicken, and western omelets. They got the order wrong, and I just received fried omelets instead. Other than that, the food arrived pretty hot, and their roast pork and rotisserie chicken were tender and flavorful. You can split one order for two people with the amount of rice that came with each order.“

“Visited there with a friend and we had a delightful dining experience. Their menu has a variety of fresh and flavorful options including both meat and seafood, and each dish we ordered tasted really good! The service was another highlight from our experience, the waitress is very attentive and friendly, and she knows very well about the menu. We will definitely visit again!“

“This place is a neighborhood gem and a perfect place to start your day. Service is friendly and fast. The omelettes are loaded with fresh vegetables and are *delicious*. Bacon cooked to perfection. The people are welcoming and kind. A sign by the cash register reads, "Life is Beautiful. Enjoy it. Take care of it, value it, flow with it." This Dominican restaurant is a great place to do just that.

Vegetarian options: They have loads of meatless breakfast dishes. Not explicitly labeled as vegetarian but good, whole food without meat.“

“Everything ……… is great !“
