Not worth it. Paid $20 for just three small pieces of steak and overly salty beans. Not only was the food disappointing, but the staff had such bad attitudes. Definitely won’t be coming back.

I stopped in today for chicken soup and left with pernil and beans. Hoping for a great experience to along with the food. Unfortunately, the staff was very rude. Though still leaving a tip and being content about the food. The soup and bean containers and tops were replaced with the larger container because they ran out medium sized. This cause all the soup and bean to spill in the bag and onto my car and my clothes. When I returned to the show them, the three ladies in the front didn’t automatically correct their issue. They just stood there and told me we don’t have any more!!! I asked them to please put the soup in a larger container and they still refused. Until I asked one of the male customers to translate in spanish and then and only then they decided to fix the issue. This would have really been a bad look if I was the mayor or city council of this city. This should have been corrected immediately! And I will not be returning!

I ordered 2 chicken and cheese empanadas and the empanadas barely had chicken or cheese. 90 percent air. Very disappointed

I purchased fried pork chunks that came old, dry, and cold. I also ordered fried chicken chunks with the bone but received what appears to be chopped up chicken fingers. The rice and peas looked old as well and was room temperature. The yuca with onions and the side cup of beans was the only edible items.
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.
Food is ok. Over priced for the portions they serve.
Nelly’s is a decent Spanish restaurant. They have always been consistent with their flavors and service. Although they are predominantly Spanish speaking, which makes it hard to communicate with other foreign languages. The staff is very patient and they pile up on the food. I go here for lunch often and I would say it’s a decent spot to get if you’re on Main Street.
