“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.“

“I'm Asian and my Asian friend and I were walking in Jackson Heights and we passed by and ate here. Although we don't speak Spanish, the owner does speak English. We can communicate normally ~ I want to dine here again ~ I wonder if the owner will guess who I am after seeing this message???????“

“Best value for food. Usually stop by here and pick up enough food to feed a small army of 10 adults and a few children and there is still left over for around $50They have 3 specials at very affordable prices but they do not lack in flavor taste or quality.Timely service and always a pleasant experience.Usually take it to go as the inside is a bit small for groups but they do take out and delivery which is always a win. Recommend going here if you find yourself in the need of some Caribbean cuisine.“

“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.“

“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."“

I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for an authentic Dominican experience. I will be back!“

“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.“

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

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

“For the first time I visited this fried food and I can tell you that I loved it, from the quality, the flavor, the portion that was too much and the price, not to mention super economical, we ordered a varied tray, a hotdog and a juice and everything was very delicious and the preparation was very Quick, I will definitely come back ?“

“I got a corn drink-no se como se llama-that was really good and a majorette that was to die for. I was told this is the best spot for habichuelas con dulce. That being said, I guess it is not for me, then. Nonetheless, I highly recommend this place ?“

“Todos los platos son excelentes👍🏼“

“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!“

“Reyes, located in Woodside, Queens, is a fantastic Dominican restaurant that offers a true taste of the Dominican Republic. The standout feature of this cozy spot is their Dominican breakfast, which is a perfect way to start the day. From the classic *mangú* (mashed plantains) to *queso frito* (fried cheese) and *salami*—all served with a side of crispy *mangú* and scrambled eggs—each bite is bursting with flavor and authenticity.

Aside from breakfast, Reyes delivers an array of authentic Dominican dishes that are expertly prepared. The *sancocho* (a hearty meat stew) and *mofongo* (fried plantain mash) are particularly popular, offering rich, savory flavors that transport you straight to the heart of the Caribbean. Their *chicharrón de pollo* (fried chicken) and *arroz con habichuelas* (rice and beans) are also must-tries, showcasing the best of Dominican comfort food.

The only drawback is that Reyes is closed from Friday to Monday, which can make it a bit tricky to get a taste of their delicious offerings during the weekend. Nonetheless, if you're in the area and craving authentic Dominican food, Reyes is definitely worth the visit. The flavors, the quality, and the friendly atmosphere make it a standout spot in Woodside.“

“Punta Cana is an absolute paradise for anyone looking to enjoy delicious food in a vibrant and relaxing atmosphere. From the moment we arrived, the friendly staff made us feel welcome and ensured our experience was nothing short of perfect.

The menu offers a wonderful mix of Caribbean and international flavors, with fresh ingredients and beautifully presented dishes. I opted for the grilled mahi-mahi, which was cooked to perfection — tender, flavorful, and served with a side of tropical salsa that added just the right amount of zest. My partner went for the jerk chicken, which was smoky, spicy, and incredibly satisfying.

The cocktails deserve a special mention — the signature rum punch was refreshing and expertly crafted, making it the perfect complement to our meal. The lively music and warm decor create a fun and inviting vibe, ideal for a casual night out or a celebration.

Overall, Punta Cana delivers an outstanding dining experience with great food, attentive service, and a fantastic atmosphere. Whether you’re a local or just visiting, this place should definitely be on your list. We’ll definitely be back!“

“Excelente servicio! Muy buena calidad en la comida“

“Excellent serving portions!
Food has an excellent taste and everything is well cooked. Nothing bad to say at all!
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.“

“Excellent customer service from A to Z, thanks chef PaPi food 🥘 and drinks amazing 😉!!“

“I can't believe I almost walked past this amazing place. This spot creates the perfect feel. The service speed impressed us. They're inconsistent with warmth but consistent with service. This restaurant exceeded expectations and I can't wait to return!“

“I stumbled across this little hidden gem on my way to the bus stop. I ordered fried pork crackling (chicharrones de Cerdo) with boiled cassava topped with pickled onions. I literally felt like I was on a beach in Dominican Republic! The fried pork was crispy and juicy at the same time- full of flavor. I’m so happy I found this new food spot on my way home from a long day of work. I saw they sell a lot of rotisserie chicken, not sure if there was a catering going on but that chicken looked amazing coming out of the ovens!“

“A small family business. Although there was limited seating, we arrived about 5pm on a Wednesday evening and there was seating for the 4 of us. We ordered Cuban sandwiches and they were great. For the first time we also shared an order of Mofungo, it was delicious. The service was excellent and friendly. A true NYC neighborhood experience. A must if you are in the neighborhood. Walking distance from LaGuardia Plaza Hotel. Although we were tourists, they made us feel like family. Thank you for a great experience. The Maas family“

“Small hole in the wall shop serving up bomb food. Ordered the chicken quesadilla for pick-up was still hot, crunchy and delicious. Cheese to chicken ratio was fantastic. Sauce is delicious! Guy at the front was kind. No complaints. And to get a meal for $11 nowadays?! Unreal! Thank you!“

“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 !!“

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

“Placed a catering order and the food was AMAZING! The portions were perfect, and the food was packed well. The pernil and chicken had great flavor. They also gave us plenty of sauces including a garlic sauce container which was a hit. Pricing is very fair for the portions. We'll definitely be ordering again!“

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

“The Chicharones and the Rabos was delicious! Got take out for this but I donrecommend bringing someone who speaks spanish to help you get your order right. I paid much more than what I should’ve when I went by myself but when I went with my friend who spoke spanish to them we paid the same amount for more food. But still recommend!“

“I just ordered the tastiest Cuban sandwich I have tried. It was pressed so toasty and crispy. I had the waitress add extra pickles and garlic. They make the drink “Morirsoñando” (like a creamsicle) with freshly squeezed orange juice and it brought me back to how my grandma used to make it. I will definitely come back to try more dishes- their daily lunch specials caught my eye so it gives me more of a reason to return!“
