I have been coming to this place for over 10 years the food is always amazing authentic taste like your momma made it . Always crowded and sometimes the line goes all the way outside . Never disappoints and will continue to come here until the day I die because the food is that delicious .Parking: No parking
I’m giving 5 stars because of consistency: Over 22 years of coming here and I never leave disappointed. I don’t live in Queens anymore but I’m often traveling out here to visit family, so when I’m in the mood for a filling tasteful meal, Jennifer’s is always an option. And to order pepper steak, yellow rice w/ gandules, red onion, sweet plantain, extra gravy & green hot sauce all for $10 is unbeatable (even if you have a stick). I gladly tipped $2. The chicken soup is really good too. If you get a large ($12) which comes with a small white rice, it’s almost a meal by itself. As for atmosphere, it’s all about food at Jennifer’s so you won’t get ambience; what you get is tight quarters (if there’s eight people inside, it’s cramped and challenging to navigate. There’s also a lot of online order pickups. Jennifer’s is the kind of spot where you have to speak up and act like a local, not a tourist. Staff is extremely friendly. I was surprised when the guy who took my order remembered me ordering a week ago. There is a small counter area with about five barstools, if you want to eat right away. Getting a seat to eat is luck of the draw and since it can get busy, the plates from previous customers may not get removed right away, same for counter and floor. The reason I don’t factor this into rating is because eat in customers are not the target audience. It’s intended to be standing room only, cop & go. Again, it’s the consistency for me—Jennifer’s has delivered good food and great prices for AT LEAST two decades plus and that is deserving of an overall ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ rating, even if there are some individual areas that aren’t perfect.

Their food tastes as good as it looks and they have been consistent for 10 years straight since high school. They never miss a beat. Great customer service, delicious food and unbeatable prices. They have the most authentic RD food. Especially Mondays and Thursdays when they make sancocho. Best sancocho I’ve ever had since back in Hato Mayor.Vegetarian options: Rice, beans, avocado, sweet plantains, salad
One of the best food spots near & around St Johns University. I used to come here as a student & came back recently for a platter that never slacks on the taste. There homemade hot sauce is A1 too!
