The number of breakfast choices was definitely more than I"d expectedMy pastrami with egg and cheese onww toast was full, fresh and delicious .My morning walk now concludes with astop here -112 Ave & Francis Lewis Blv- for a repeatedly enjoyable breakfast“

“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.“

“Seating is limited - the food fresh and tasty- NYC rated A restaurant- staff friendly“

“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“

“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“

Bathroom was extremely CLEAN !
I recommend this place to eat your lunch.

“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.“

“The Absolute Best Dominican Restaurant in Nassau County! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Lucas Dominican Restaurant is hands down the most delicious and flavorful spot in Nassau County! Every single bite is an explosion of authentic Dominican goodness, from their perfectly seasoned pernil to the mouthwatering mofongo that melts in your mouth. Their portions are generous, their service is warm and welcoming, and the food is always fresh and made with love.

I often order for my team at Luxurious Beauty Studios, and they absolutely love it. The quality and consistency are unmatched! Whether I’m bringing my family for a sit-down meal or grabbing takeout for the spa, Lucas never disappoints. The arroz con habichuelas, tender pollo guisado, and tostones are simply perfection.

If you’re looking for real Dominican flavors, home-cooked quality, and a restaurant that treats you like family, Lucas Dominican Restaurant is THE place to go! Five stars are not enough—I’d give them ten if I could! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“Great service from the friendly waitress. Food came out fast. Everything was fresh. Best avocados I’ve seen in a while. Drinks were strong. I really enjoyed my penne alla vodka. Huge servings . I will be coming back likely for takeout
Because I was Not happy with the indoor because it’s Extremely weird cafeteria lighting... they should think about more restaurant friendly lighting . Also Bathrooms were filthy . But the food and service make up for it.“

“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.“

“The food is acceptable but what I liked the most was the sweet plantains that I bought for my whole family. I have given it many chances and I kept buying it but it doesn't improve. It tastes horrible. The bananas are sometimes semi-green, not sweet at all, without any flavor. and they make the pieces smaller and at $5 I wouldn't mind the price as long as it was delicious but it isn't like that I hope they fix it“

“A small family business. Although there was limited seating, we arrived about 5pm on a Wednesday evening and there was seating for the 4 of us. We ordered Cuban sandwiches and they were great. For the first time we also shared an order of Mofungo, it was delicious. The service was excellent and friendly. A true NYC neighborhood experience. A must if you are in the neighborhood. Walking distance from LaGuardia Plaza Hotel. Although we were tourists, they made us feel like family. Thank you for a great experience. The Maas family“

“The best of the best Dominican food in queens. Chivo (goat) was ? even if you don’t like goat, you will like their goat. Roast chicken is amazing as well. Beans, rice, tostones, onion, all the Dominican staples are as good as they come. Huge servings, very affordable. It’s a casual restaurant with high quality service. The staff are all very polite. Good place for families - they didn’t mind that our toddler made a mess. I’m def going back again and bringing more friends and family.

Kid-friendliness: They had kid chairs and didn’t mind that our kid made a mess“

“excelentes recetas son muy buenas“

“The place was nice, the service was good, and it would have been nice to see the menu with the prices. Our order changed from $28 to $42 dollars and we were not too happy about that. It's okay. We may come back and we need to save money for that. The place felt more like a bar.“

“This is a small restaurant but full of flavor, the food is very fresh and delicious. A breakfast ? or lunch is perfect here, it is not expensive, I highly recommend the meatballs, they are delicious and when they make tail, my mouth waters. I recommend you try it, and the ladies who serve are very nice and attentive, they don't make faces or have an attitude at all, I really love it“

“Ordered for delivery, cooked well but nothing special. Order the Pernil Especiales, portion was very generous but nothing crispy bit or parts. Macaroni salad was alright and fries can't be messed up. With such a high rating I was deeply disappointed.“

“Great food and excellent fast service.“

“My Titi Delilah recommended it, It’s good. Good people. I saved a bee; they always follow me even in winter. They even tried to find a paper but I thought fast ripped the paper….there you go. Bees especially aren’t supposed to be killed. If they go the world goes remember that.

Kid-friendliness: They have some good looking fried chicken Spanish style so you know it has the right amount of flavor. Watch out Popeyes.“

“Whenever I want some delicious food, I have to stop in here!!! Their chicharrones, beans, white rice with sweet plantains with some delicious pernil and a jarrito, are amazing! The girls are really sweet too.

They also cater if you're having a get together! 10 stars **********“

“That ai poyo is delicious ? ? and that ripe banana with coconut oil ? that spicy poyo is delicious wao k chicken ? I give you my fingers ? uuuu

Vegetarian options: To the many barieda

Kid-friendliness: Follow and table“

“El Sabor de la Esquina is a fantastic find! The food was fresh, authentic, and bursting with flavor — truly felt like a taste of home cooking. The staff was warm and welcoming, making the experience even better. Highly recommend for anyone craving delicious, genuine dishes in a friendly, casual atmosphere.“

“Great food & the service is great ....Waiters are always smiling...Great atmosphere“

“Great spot, solid basic food, no frills, fast service. One of the few places you can eat decently without getting a ton of plastic (they serve food on plates with metal utensils). And they don't raise their prices every few months like Claudette's, Super Burrito, the bagel place on 96th, everywhere on the boardwalk, etc.“

“The best mofongo in the world!“

“If you’re looking for authentic Dominican food, Quisqueya in Corona, Queens is an absolute must-visit! We tried several dishes, including the oxtail stew, boneless chicken chunks, and Morro rice, but nothing could compare to their mofongo. Hands down, the best I’ve ever had! The mofongo sauce is out of this world – it’s so good, you’d want to drink it by the spoonful.

The staff are spectacular—warm, friendly, and attentive, making the experience even better. The location might seem a bit sketchy at first glance, but don’t let that deter you. Once you step inside, the food and service more than make up for it. Quisqueya is a hidden gem worth discovering!“

“Muy buen lugar para comprar tienen mis product is favoritos.i son my amables...Thanks“

“Food is awesome, and the service always comes with a smile. Ordering online for delivery is always difficult because the buffet style food changes so often, but that's the only drawback. If you're in the area, be sure to stop in and grab a delicious reasonably priced meal.“

“I'm Asian and my Asian friend and I were walking in Jackson Heights and we passed by and ate here. Although we don't speak Spanish, the owner does speak English. We can communicate normally ~ I want to dine here again ~ I wonder if the owner will guess who I am after seeing this message???????“

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at this establishment and the experience was a mixed bag. The food was absolutely exceptional, each dish bursting with flavor and well prepared. The service was top-notch as well - attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable. I ordered a Cosmo and my friend ordered the old fashioned. The bartender did an excellent job and both drinks were delicious!

However, the ambiance left something to be desired. The decor felt a bit outdated and could use some modernization to match the quality of the cuisine and service. With a revamp in the ambiance department, this place could easily become a five-star dining destination. Overall, a great spot for a delicious meal with fantastic service, but with room for improvement in the atmosphere.“

“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.“

“Literally a taste of Dominican Republic just in Queens. The clubhouse sandwich is absolutely amazing, the chimi de pollo, Yaroa, their chicken bites and the tostones (tastes like straight from motherland). It’s definitely worth buying, God bless the cooks. The staff, are friendlier in person than on the phone.“

“My experience at this restaurant was mostly positive, with the exception of one unfortunate incident with the drink order. Despite requesting a virgin piña colada for the children, the waitress brought it with alcohol, which could have been dangerous since the children had already consumed some of the drink. She noticed the mistake and ran to the table but the children had already had a couple of drinks ? Despite this inconvenience, we decided not to cause a scandal and let it go.

As for the rest of the experience, the food was delicious and the service was friendly and attentive. However, it is crucial that the restaurant improves its processes to ensure that drink orders are served correctly, especially when it comes to serving alcohol to minors.

Overall, I would recommend this restaurant, but I suggest being careful when ordering drinks to avoid awkward situations like the one we experienced. I hope you take steps to improve this and provide an even better experience for your customers in the future!“
