“The food is much better for me VS El Jobito across the street. I'm surprised I don't have to pay more than $10 for most dishes, this depends on the amount taken out/eaten inside but I think it's reasonable. Not to mention nicer vegetables/salads too, when one needs a side dish.“

“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 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 ?“

“My last visit to Elsa La Reina del Chicharrón was nothing short of amazing. Elsa truly lives up to her name the queen of chicharrón! perfectly seasoned pork, and the flavor doesn’t disappoint. The chicharrón was crispy, juicy, and full of that authentic sazón that’s hard to find anywhere else in the city.
You can tell everything is made with love and pride. The service was friendly, fast, and made me feel like family. If you’re in New York and haven’t been to Elsa yet, you’re seriously missing out. She’s simply the best nobody does it like Elsa!“

“Great food and great service. The food reminds me of home and is reasonably priced. We keep coming back for the ox tail stew, ribs, beef steak, porkchops, dumplings and the boneless chicharonnes de pollo. Most meals are served with white or yellow rice and beans or vegetables. If you want to try something different, they have the beef liver and squid ink fried rice which remind me of squid ink Paella. The combination meals are a great option to try out different dishes. The staff and owners always greet you with a warm welcome.“

“A Caribbean influence found in the Essex Market, Dominican Cravins has some unique dishes I have never seen before. Their pink sauce is to die for (and it’s definitely not that viral pink sauce trending on Tiktok a few years ago).**Rating:**- Taste: 9/10- Value: 8.5/10- Ambiance/vibes: 7/10 - its located in essex market.“

“Honestly this a hidden Gem. It's a really small shop with great Hispanic food. Unfortunately, there's no space for a group of people to sit and eat in. But if you happen to be alone you may be able to grab a seat. They have a lot of different options which is amazing. Its inexpensive and they serve a really good portion of food. The staff is very nice and attentive. They are pretty fast but it does get packed during lunch time starting at 12 pm usually. So you may have to wait a little longer than usual. Definitely try to catch the mangu in the morning for breakfast.“

“I was introduced to this place by my cousin. Nice spot where you can dine. This place gets packed during lunch hours. I always get the yellow rice with the black beans and grilled chicken covered with honey mustard sauce! Sometimes even their sweet plantains…“

“Everything is good here. Simple, old-fashioned, Caribbean/Latino Classics. Excellent empanadas, good coffee, friendly service, neighborhood place, no BS. Closed Sundays. This is exactly the type of neighborhood place we all whine about missing after it’s gone. Go there now. Highly recommended.“

“The service is great, professional, not to mention the food, you just lick your fingers.
The bakery that I normally go to is located in the Bronx, but I was in the rush and didn't have time to go up there; I went online looking for the nearest bakery and El panadero pop up. Now that I know them (The lovely ladies and all) it has become a real challenge going to the Bronx ?.“

“The fried chicken tastes delicious and you actually get meat with your order. Not just fried bones with little to no meat like some places around there. You can taste the seasoning on the chicken and even the fries (I assume they cook it all in the same oil). It’s a staple in the neighborhood. They also sell other types of meats and sides like rice and beans, plantains, spaghetti, fish, you name it they have it! And it’s delicious too. Definitely going back whenever I’m around that area.“

“The food was quite good, with rich, hearty dishes that were satisfying overall. However, I would suggest expanding the selection of seltzers and sparkling water, especially considering how heavy the food can be — a crisp, refreshing beverage option would be a great complement.
It would also be nice to see some classic sides like potato salad or macaroni salad offered. They’d pair well with the mains and add a touch of comfort-food nostalgia.
The service was very good — the staff was friendly and attentive, which made for a pleasant dining experience.
The atmosphere was fair, though I found the music (mostly reggaeton and trap) a bit loud and one-dimensional. Switching up the playlist to include a broader mix of genres could help create a more balanced vibe, especially in a diverse neighborhood like Hell’s Kitchen.
Overall, it was a good experience with solid food and welcoming service, with just a few tweaks that could elevate it even further.
Thank you.“

“I don't understand why this place has a 3.7, it's my favorite Spanish restaurant! The rice is so flavorful, not like any other place I've had before. Their empanadas are amazing! It has the perfect texture, flavor, and price at only $2.50! They have always given me great service even when I first came here. This place is so underrated. Definitely give it a try when you can!“

“DELICIOUS! Best mofongo & chicharron in Manhattan. Takes exactly like the one in PR that my family serves me. Everything is so flavorful and juicy and the chicharron is so incredibly crispy but still fatty. Was perfect for takeout and I’ll def be going back all the time“
