“Heads up that this store does not have this name on the outside anymore. It's known as LI VALLE but same ownership as far as we were informed. Super Five Stars for this deli/prepared foods restaurant in a strip mall in Franklin square. We had an outstanding server but unfortunately I'm not remembering her name right now. She explained all the dishes in detail and we ordered two plates with one meat and two sides to try out. Huge portions and everything was terrific. They had a fried rice that I had never had before and it was a hit. The ribs were a tiny bit dry and I wish we had taken the stew instead, but all of our plates were completely wiped clean by the end of lunch. They had fresh to stones but they didn't have the dip that I traditionally get with it. Instead they had a very spicy salsa/ hot sauce we ended up taking home and eating with the rest of our food for the week. There was no fresh ice cream and the tres leches was good but not amazing. You can tell this is a popular place and people were streaming in and out while we were seated, especially for catering orders.”

“My family and I ate here several times during our stay in NY. The customer service was amazing! The food was fantastic, especially the shrimp mofongo, stewed chicken, rice and peas. We were able to sample a passion fruit marinated steak and chicharron. Best steak I’ve had in awhile. Gustavo treated my family like it was his own and we appreciated that!”

“El Rincón Dominicano is a restaurant in Hempstead known for its delicious Dominican and Spanish food. We ordered the chicharrón which was moist and crisp. Just the way it should be cooked. I had the grilled stead. It was very flavorful and tender. My niece had the skirt steak which was out of this world. The steak melted in your mouth. My sister-ion-law had the pernil which is her favorite. The food is cooked to perfection, and we left with plenty for another meal. The staff is helpful, friendly, and attentive, providing great customer service. Parking is a bit of an issue, but we were lucky in getting a spot in the lot. Prices are reasonable for the amount of food you are offered. El Rincón Dominicano is well-loved by my family. While we live in NJ, we will visit again.”

“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.”

“I have been eating from here for literal years! My dad introduced me to their food about 10 years ago and I can’t believe I haven’t written a review yet. The food here is consistently flavorful, fresh, and made with love. It doesn’t matter if I eat in the restaurant or order takeout the food here is always a 10/10! My go to order is the Grilled Shrimp Scampi ( Camarones ) with garlic sauce and white rice with beans. My fiancé always orders their Pernil with rice and beans. If you are thinking of getting food from here, do it! The staff is super friendly and the food is as good as it looks!”

“I was craving a Cubano. I should have asked how they make theirs. The sandwich I got was good but it wasn't a Cubano. My idea of a Cuban sandwich is Roast pork, sliced ham, swiss cheese, a pickle and mustard. Hero bread pressed flat. I hear some people use salami instead of ham. The sandwich I recieved had no pickle no cheese no mustard and was not pressed. I'll give them another try because their food looked good in the trays. If I get another Cubano, I'll ask them if they can make it my way.”

“I was referred here by my friend who buys food from here often and shared and it's always delicious. My husband and I come from long island as often as we can now because we have never been disappointed with all the food we bought. Staff and owners are wonderful and very welcoming and grateful for our patronage which we love. The portions are great and pleasantly pleased that they include plantains. My absolute favorite is the beef stew, always mouth watering and tender. We will continue to return. Highly recommend this gem of a restaurant.”

“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.”

“Breakfast one morning with my wife made us know the JS had to stand for Jesus Saves! We were pleasantly pleased to find the crowd coming through was a sign that everyone knew about the experience we were about to have. I was greeted with a smile as my wife found us a seat and the host took my order. I told her we'd be staying and she invited me to have a seat, as she would serve our meal. The music was inspirational, the aroma of deliciousness filled the air and the food was plated and presented perfectly. Yes, we came hungry and JS did not disappoint! My wife and I have traveled miles in the past to eat the quality of food that is now in our backyard. Another gem has been found in the Jewel of Jamaica - Jesus Saves!”

“If you’re looking for amazing service and even better food, The Dominican Restaurant is the place to be. As someone who called the DR home for a decade, finding a spot that captures that genuine island feeling is rare—but this place nails it. It’s become the go-to 'home away from home' for me and all my friends. Es como estar de vuelta en la isla, ¡una maravilla!”

23 Sabor Comida Dominicana

3.7 Good 3 Reviews

90-40 160th St, Jamaica · 6.62 miles

“The food here is excellent—authentic, flavorful Dominican food that hits the spot every time. You really can’t beat the price, flavor, quality, and portion sizes. It’s a serious value. You can’t go wrong with the classic combo: white rice, beans, and baked chicken—simple, hearty, and packed with flavor. The empanadas are amazing (and they sell out fast, so don’t wait!). If you make it there for breakfast, the mangu with eggs is a must. The setting is a food court, so don’t expect a fancy atmosphere—but that’s not what you’re here for. You’re here for the food, and *man*, is it good.”

“Alright, in this neighborhood, there aren't many Latin restaurants left, but La Reina is a mainstay for 2 reasons: 1. The food quality is always clean, plentiful, and consistent. 2. Though their prices have risen (as have every other single restaurant in this neighborhood no matter what the genre of food) they are still the most reasonable around for Latin food. Whenever I stop by they're always friendly accomodating. My favorite dish is their roast chicken, their seasoning blend is top tier. My husband is also a fan of their pernil (and I am too when I steal from his plate). I never leave without getting a hearty portion of habichuelas. Please support this business, they have a hole in the wall but they deserve an entire dining room.”

“I was doing some errands in this plaza when i randomly stumbled across this restaurant. I haven’t experienced authentic food in so long and not only was the food amazing the atmosphere was too. As well as the staff was extremely nice and I even spoke to a worker who said they’d been there for 15 years which amazed me because I’ve always lived in the area and never seen this place. I ordered the beef stew and rice and it was PACKED and DELICIOUS. it was also LESS THAN $12 and gave me enough for leftovers and a full stomach. Their empanadas were amazing as well. 10/10 would recommend”

“I had rotisserie chicken, pernil, empanadas (beef, cheeseburger, pepperoni pizza, chicken fajita), mac n cheese, white rice, yellow rice, beans and I chose green sauce. Their chicken fajita empanadas are stupid delicious. The homemade green sauce I can drink. The pernil is great on its own but eaten WITH the mac n cheese?! Pfft. Must have. Everything was great. Will definitely make a point to go back a few times before I move. Best Dominican food I've had yet.”
