Some of the best Mangu I have had in a while and I’ve lived in the Bronx. Good spot lots of seating with a full far and full kitchen. Good music as well. Great spot to check out for eats and vibes.

We were visiting my son at Hofstra and we decided to take him and a couple of his friends out to dinner. We've taught him how to use Yelp to see pics and reviews and he chose here. First impressions weren't great to be honest. The lady behind the bar originally told us they were closed but then they switched their tune. Anyway even though we speak Spanish fluently there was some confusion ordering but we straightened all of that out. I had the roast pork which was really good. A couple of the kids had mafungo which looked amazing and got good reviews. The wife had pepper chicken which was great. We had wind empanadas sweet plantains and drinks. I would definitely recommend this place! Food was good and very affordable! The place looks nice too it seemed to have just been remodeled.

Had the mofongo de chicharrón and it was filling but not too flavorful. The service was decent. The restaurant itself is cozy but nothing special.

Our fave order is always the Pernil family combo. It comes with 2L soda, salad, rice and beans, plantain and Pernil . Enough for about 3-4 ppl depending on how much you eat. Service is always quick and fast via Uber Eat. We've ordered it multiple times. Delicious

Another breakfast spot for me the mangu is delicious. Coffee and natural juices Are awesome.
About the only reasonable thing was the (although packaged and frozen) deep fried empanadas. Otherwise, ordered a Dominican Chicken Salad and got served something completely different. When we indicated the error, they returned with a plate of chopped iceberg lettuce, and several slices of tomato and cucumber topped with what appeared to be the chicken from the erroneous order cut up into bitesize pieces. For two people, one set of cutlery. Table service practically nonexistent. Looking for a Dominican cuisine experience? Probably best to look elsewhere. Sadly, not a place to recommend.

Authentic food, great food, great atmosphere. This is the place to get a quick bite for lunch to take out or dine in with the family. You can’t find places like this everywhere.Kid-friendliness: There are tables for groups of 4-6 to sit.Parking: Street parking is availableDietary restrictions: Dominican cuisine incorporates a lot of options so you can tailor your choices to what you want.
