Dominican Restaurants in Poughkeepsie, NY

“I love New Nellys but this summer ordering an empenada has turned into a game of empenada roulette... will it be chicken & cheese?? Maybe, if luck is on my side that day. It could just as likely be a cheeseless chicken empenada or even a cheeseless beef empenada! To be served a cheeseless empenada is a major bummer, for me anyways. That said, when I'm given the actual item that I ordered: it's delicious!“

“I gotta give props where it’s due, this spot never misses. I’m hooked on their family combo meals! the seasoning is always on point, not too salty, not too bland, just right. You can tell they know what they’re doing in that kitchen.

Delivery’s always on time, too. No drama, no missing items, no “where’s my food?” nonsense. They pull up, drop it off, and it’s still hot.

And the prices? Mad reasonable. Especially for the portions you’re getting. In a time where everybody’s charging steakhouse prices for takeout, they’re keeping it humble and worth it.

If you’re craving that real Dominican flavor without getting played on the bill, this place is it.“

“Ordered the roast pork daily special with moro rice and a cold Kola Champagne to top it off, everything was on point! The pork was tender with that perfect crunchy skin, and the moro rice was creamy, flavorful, and packed with delicious beans. That Kola Champagne hit different with the meal! sweet, bubbly, and brought it all together. Danny’s never disappoints when you’re craving that real Dominican home-style flavor. Highly recommend!“
