Dominican Restaurants near Rockaway Park, NY

“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.“

“The chicken beans and rice was so delicious! Chicken was tender flavorful & perfectly cooked. Everyone who works here was so kind and attentive. Dominican food as good or better as any i’ve had in the city. Definitely come here before after or during your beach day.“

“good food. It has a cozy atmosphere.“

“July 8 2024 order some rice and 2 porkchop the lady gave me 2 ham steak which was very salty not too please at all so when you order make sure it's what u ask for I don't speak Spanish!!!!!“

“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."“

“I went today and omg it was great. Delicious fresh empanadas. I highly recommend empanada city ❤️“

The coffee is excellent, and the staff is super friendly. If you're in the area, definitely check it out!

Delicious food ?
Very good service very helpful
Do I recommend the place? 10 out of 10 thanks.“

“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.“

“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“

“The area has a limited selection of retail stores and restaurants, which makes Caoba the go-to spot for anyone working nearby.

This is one of the reasons the establishment is so cherished. Another reason is that they offer fantastic food at reasonable, if not affordable, prices. They seem to understand their role in the community by catering to the steady stream of workers and residents.

You could consider them a staple of the community.

I would recommend them any day—except Sundays, as they are closed. The area has a limited selection of retail stores and restaurants, which makes Caoba the go-to spot for anyone working nearby.

“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.“

“Absolutely delicious food & great service! We come from Smithtown Long Island and it’s worth the trip every time never disappoints!“

“I'm used to seeing pork legs only with potatoes and carrots, but these have everything, I saw it differently, but when they gave me a try, uffff, what a surprise, I couldn't resist and bought it, yummy, I would go back to buy it 10 out of 10“

“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.

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

“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“

“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!“

“This place is a neighborhood gem and a perfect place to start your day. Service is friendly and fast. The omelettes are loaded with fresh vegetables and are *delicious*. Bacon cooked to perfection. The people are welcoming and kind. A sign by the cash register reads, "Life is Beautiful. Enjoy it. Take care of it, value it, flow with it." This Dominican restaurant is a great place to do just that.

Vegetarian options: They have loads of meatless breakfast dishes. Not explicitly labeled as vegetarian but good, whole food without meat.“

“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.“

“I called on December 31st in the afternoon and that girl was very kind and told me that I should pick them up and I went from NJ South Amboy to there and it was the best snack, this year I will order again but with more time and not rushing . 😂“

“Chicharron de pollo with the bone is SO GOOD. Well cooked and juicy. Beans are well seasoned and delicious. Love the rice. It reminds me of my abuela’s cooking. I usually don’t love Dominican take out (it’s usually not like the real thing in my opinion!!) but I’m glad I tried this place because it tastes very authentic! I’ve ordered from here 3-4 times on Uber Eats and will be ordering again!“

“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.“

“I have placed an order for catering. I ordered maduros, chicharrón de pollo sin hueso, and pollo guisado. All large trays and food was great. I did wish I was able to order over the phone and do a deposit by card but I had to come in person for it. I don’t live the borough but the food was worth it. The workers overall were great and very accommodating. My food was ready on time for pick up and they carried it out to my car. Food was very delicious and everyone loved it.“

“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 tend to order from here almost once a week, place is always great I sometimes eat in its clean, friendly staff, once made a mistake 3 times in a row and they changed it over and over again. No questions asked and actually seemed to care and asked if something was wrong with me (in a good way I mean) what I’m trying to say is they are great people and care about there customers!!!“

“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“

Parking: Heart of Brooklyn on Flatbush Ave By 7th Ave.

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes. No steps. A slightly tight right turn double door entrance.“

“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.“

“This is our go to stop for takeout. Some things we love from here: pernil, chicharrón, beans, rice, chicken stew, fried chicken, potato salad and maduros. All of the above and for a great price and you have a feast that you can enjoy with your family! Highly recommend you check this place out.“

“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.“

“the restaurant is good, it is about one or two years old and the food is very good. The only bad thing is the employees who are unprofessional and unfriendly. On the menu they always have a lot of variety of food, they make rice, beans, pork, beef, chicken, fish, salads, soups, for dinnin in and delivery. I live like 8 blocks away and every time l call to order it always arrives super fast in less than 20 minutes… they cook low in fat and are very clean. the only thing they have to improve is the service and the quality of the employees. they have to learn to know how to treat a customer and leave satisfied.“

“One of the best meals I’ve had in a long time.
We intended to go to a different restaurant but it was closed due to the holiday and we happily ended up here.
We shared the oxtail stew and the goat stew with rice and beans and plantains.
Service was great and they made us feel right at home. I’ll come back every time I’m in Brooklyn.“

“It is my favorite place, I love it ? the service, the excellent food and the employees treat you as if you were family ? may the Lord Jesus bless you greatly.

Kid-friendliness: You can go with children ? it is an excellent place.“
