Dominican Restaurants near Ozone Park, NY

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

“Service great... Food authentically season👌🏾“

“What a beautiful experience! We tried the baked chicken, oxtail, and a chicken sandwich, and everything was spectacular. The food has that homemade flavor that is so hard to find, as if it had been cooked with the same love as at home. We will be back soon!“

“Wonderful cuisine service is excellent“

“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."“

“Excellent breakfast this morning , freshly cooked using good ingredients and lovely coffee!! Staff were very friendly, overall a great experience. We will be back next time we passing through!!“

“Excellent!“

“Love Dominican food. Happy to have one nearby.

Ordered combo three and it came with ALOT of food. The pernil (roast pork) was great, the bistec was just ok. Good flavor but a little tough. Yellow rice and red beans were excellent. The platanos had good flavor but I like them a little wetter and softer. Oxtail was very good.

Empanadas were also solid. I’ve had better but these weren’t bad.

Not the best Dominican food I’ve ever had but this definitely satisfies a craving and nothing like it in the area.

The service is excellent. Couldn’t be nicer.“

“Karaoke night was great But need it more space for dancing“

“This place is very clean, has nice staff, and cooks up pretty authentic Dominican food. I ate a delicious plate of tres golpes and received a fresh plate of food with a generous portion of mangu. Wish we had places like this on the West Coast. I will come back for sure next time I’m in NYC!“

“Zoralie is a neighborhood staple and tastes like your grandmothers cooking! We did catering from them for 125 people at a baby shower and everything was AMAZING! Our guest could not stop complimenting the food. They took care of us with the portions and price was definitely reasonable. We will continue to go to Zoralie for local meals AND use them for future events!“

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

“This holiday season, I hosted a dinner at my house and ordered almost everything from their catering menu. Everything was absolutely fantastic and tasted amazing! My husband’s favorite was the pernil, and my guests loved everything. If you’re hosting and want to skip the work, I highly recommend them. Plus, they deliver, which was perfect for us since we don’t drive.“

“The chicken with spicy guava was tasty a little to sweet ? I was looking for garlic on my testones. The kids enjoyed the chicken fingers though. And the cocktaiks were delish. I'll visit againOh, i had the shrimp in red sauce yummy, the beans n rice were good. The service was okay a little scattered and a little long on some things but okay“

“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.“

“For good spanish food on the go Jenny 2 restaurant is awesome and these are the reasons. The food is not salty at all very tasty. One can taste all other condiments, not overbearing well manged in taste.Their seafood doesn't taste fishy at all. Their price went up just like everything else in live but Jenny 2, the restaurant the food is worth every penny, awesome food made by Dominicans.

Kid-friendliness: The ladies and men who serve the food are very kind and pleasant, and they don't take a year to serve one.“

“(Translated by Google) Good flavor, very friendly and helpful staff, parking available and easily accessible. Thank you for your good attentions.(Original)Buen sazon, personal muy amable y servicial, parqueo disponible y de facil acceso. Gracias por sus buenas atenciones.“

“The staff was super friendly but more importantly the food was out of this world! The chef is a certified artiste because the pernil is a work of art. I had the pernil with aroz con gandules…. This dish put my grandmothers food to shame. I can’t wait to come back again… they even have a smoothie/juice bar. 5/5 stars!!

Kid-friendliness: Staff is super friendly and greeted everyone that walked in and thanked everyone that walked out.

Wheelchair accessibility: Wheel chair accessible“

“Got a take out order through the TooGoodToGo app, granted it's always a surprise bag, so we didn't know what we'd get food wise.

The mixed platter was good in terms of portion size and variety of food, but it wasn't very flavorful. Will try this place again and see if going earlier will have a different tune“

“Muy buena atención y la comida muy rica“

“food service environment clean good prices“

“Food was very well presented. portions are enough for two. it was clean and I really appreciate that they don't tag you with an extra charge for using your debit or credit card. I will be going back for sure.“

“I live a block away. It’s my first time. Amazing food. I had chicken soup and an empanadas. Mi novia had pigs feet y spaghetti…delicioso…the best part was the customer service was very friendly especially the guy at the register. Great energy. Packed during lunch.“

“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.“

“Local gem!!!! I have been coming here for years. I recommend my favorite, which is a chicken sandwich with the rotisserie chicken on hero bread with the lettuce, tomatoes, onions, jalapeño, mayonnaise and avocado. Your belly will thank you for the fulfilling-ness of this meal. I also get a smoothie with papaya, apple, pineapple, orange and cayenne pepper.
Staff is friendly and this a family oriented type spot. A total recommendation.

“The food was very good. Our table ordered a sampling platter and everything on it was delicious. I also ordered a pollo monfango which was very filling and satisfying. However, despite the good food we were really the only people in the restaurant and our wait for our food was over an hour. We were a party of 5 which may have contributed to it, though.“

“It's always good stopping by for quick chicken soup to go. Now that winter is around in nyc... don't miss out...
Price is good, staff is friendly. If you order on phone, items are ready when you get there.

I normally use to go to their other restaurant on city line.. both are amazing“

“Great food great deals, a staple in this neighborhood that’s been around forever. Very kind staff. I love this place. You can walk in and just grab a drumstick for a dollar and it’s the best drumstick you ever had!!! Good for every meal of the day!“

“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!“

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

“This place is the real deal, dominion republic buffet at a great price. Coming from London we were well used to Jamaican rice and peas etc, but this is on another level altogether , amazing hearty food at great value. Friendly staff and full of locals, give it a go you won't be disappointed.“

“I ordered delivery from grub hub and I really liked it. We got the combo with a rotisserie chicken. The only thing I didn’t like was that I was supposed to get a salad with my combo, but it didn’t come. But the food was very good so I will give them another chance.“

“This was another happy discovery, and a nice place to stop in for old-fashioned Spanish comfort food. My favorite dish from here is the garlic chicken with rice and beans, as well as the fresh juices. One can make a dish off of the snack foods and smaller dishes by themselves; the standard rice platter that came with the aforementioned chicken lasted me for a few days, there was so much. They also have a wide variety of breakfast dishes and don't mind customizing them as needed.“
