“This play is awesome. Ordered lunch on multiple occasions. Had their pernil lunch, steak lunch, pork chop lunch, they all tasted great!!For around $8-$9, they pack up the lunch box for you with rice+beans+(your choice of meat). Everything was seasoned well. They are very consistent with their food. Everytime, it tasted great.Definitely give them a try!“

“Visited S&A roti shop January 3rd, 2020 when we visited New York on our road trip. Met her son at the Nike store in Manhattan and he told us about his mom's place. On our way back to Florida we made a slight detour and I must say we were quite impressed on the taste and quality of the food and friendly service we experienced. We hope you come to Orlando and open a restaurant here as discussed when we visited. Sorry, it took a year to write a review. Roger, Marina and Josh“

The catering orders are of course freshly made, but the lunch and take out are from the ready made trays in the store and the chicken and pernil are so tender and delicious.“

“This is a little Gem in Queens. The food is delicious. 😋 Ever felt like you wanted something tasty but couldn’t figure out what? We’ll order from Lugos. Food is well seasoned, big portions, freshly made. That steak is the softest I’ve had in a long time. And it comes with a side. I choose the mashed potato which is nicely done also. Their food is banging!!! You need to try it. Thank me later. FYI This was a door dash order.“

Arroz con gandules is my favorite but the congris (black bean rice) is a close second. Also, I have a severe gluten allergy and have never had an issue! Love this place!“

“I was referred here by my friend who buys food from here often and shared and it's always delicious. My husband and I come from long island as often as we can now because we have never been disappointed with all the food we bought. Staff and owners are wonderful and very welcoming and grateful for our patronage which we love. The portions are great and pleasantly pleased that they include plantains. My absolute favorite is the beef stew, always mouth watering and tender. We will continue to return. Highly recommend this gem of a restaurant.“

“Great food very friendly staff.“

The atmosphere was great. Our server, Sharmaine, was amazing. The food was delicious. That was our first time at the restaurant and we plan to go back again and again. There were so many great items on the menu at affordable prices. The portions were very generous.“

“If you're looking for some of the best Dominican food in the US, it's here - down a few steps, in this pool hall. Everything was delicious, and I absolutely loved the habichuelas (beans). The gallina was tender to the point it was falling off the bone, and the rice was fluffy and full of flavor. This is truly a place where you can taste the love.“

“Our first dinner in the Big Apple, Rico Pollo delivered on every front. The food was rich, authentic, and full of flavour. I had a bit of everything, portions were generous, the chicken is perfectly seasoned, pulled pork was juicy and the sides complemented the dishes beautifully.“

“The food is average, the cashiers are nasty and unprofessional, and prices are clearly changed (sometimes double) based on who is ordering, with foreigners coming from the airport being taken advantage of. Was told to go in with a Spanish speaker to not get taken advantage of.... can you imagine?!?!“

“I have been eating from here for literal years! My dad introduced me to their food about 10 years ago and I can’t believe I haven’t written a review yet.

The food here is consistently flavorful, fresh, and made with love. It doesn’t matter if I eat in the restaurant or order takeout the food here is always a 10/10! My go to order is the Grilled Shrimp Scampi ( Camarones ) with garlic sauce and white rice with beans. My fiancé always orders their Pernil with rice and beans.

If you are thinking of getting food from here, do it! The staff is super friendly and the food is as good as it looks!“

“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“

“Accidentally stumbled across this place and I'm glad I did. The food was delicious, the staff was welcoming and very attentive. I got the pancakes with eggs and turkey bacon.This is the first place I see offer a variety of Morir sonando flavors. One of the cooks recommended I try the pineapple morir sonando which was so good! 10/10“

“Reyes, located in Woodside, Queens, is a fantastic Dominican restaurant that offers a true taste of the Dominican Republic. The standout feature of this cozy spot is their Dominican breakfast, which is a perfect way to start the day. From the classic *mangú* (mashed plantains) to *queso frito* (fried cheese) and *salami*—all served with a side of crispy *mangú* and scrambled eggs—each bite is bursting with flavor and authenticity.

Aside from breakfast, Reyes delivers an array of authentic Dominican dishes that are expertly prepared. The *sancocho* (a hearty meat stew) and *mofongo* (fried plantain mash) are particularly popular, offering rich, savory flavors that transport you straight to the heart of the Caribbean. Their *chicharrón de pollo* (fried chicken) and *arroz con habichuelas* (rice and beans) are also must-tries, showcasing the best of Dominican comfort food.

The only drawback is that Reyes is closed from Friday to Monday, which can make it a bit tricky to get a taste of their delicious offerings during the weekend. Nonetheless, if you're in the area and craving authentic Dominican food, Reyes is definitely worth the visit. The flavors, the quality, and the friendly atmosphere make it a standout spot in Woodside.“

“The best mofongo in the world!“

“I can't believe I almost walked past this amazing place. This spot creates the perfect feel. The service speed impressed us. They're inconsistent with warmth but consistent with service. This restaurant exceeded expectations and I can't wait to return!“

“I’ve been going there at least 3 times a month since May and have always had a great experience. They are so endearing, generous, and kind, I have a specific dietary preference which they always respect. Im obsessed with their bacalao, it’s so delicious!“

“The drink was good/ worth your money for was good scale for the food 1 out of 10
I'll give it a 7.5 real talk 🦜
Waiter was cool make sure we were comfortable and seated in the right table other than that I had a good time 😉 😀.“

“I’ve been coming to this spot for years whenever I’m craving Spanish food, and it’s always been a reliable choice.

The food tastes fresh every time, and the fried shrimp is especially good—definitely one of my favorites. I usually go for takeout during lunch, and the portions and variety (like Camarones Al Ajillo, pulled pork, and even desserts) never disappoint.

Service is quick and straightforward, and the atmosphere is decent for a casual visit.

Overall, it’s a solid place with consistent quality, and I’d happily recommend it if you’re looking for flavorful food at a reasonable price.“

“Muy buena atención y la comida muy rica“

“So yummy!! We got chicken, fish, and beef and all were delicious. Each meal comes with beans and rice and is a good value for the food and location. We also shared 4 meals (they gave us an extra plate and cutlery set) between 5 adults and had plenty of food!“

“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.“

“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“

“I’ve frequent this place at least 4 times a month, sometimes more. And one thing I can say with confidence is that the speed of service is so slow. Sometimes all I order is a juice and the wait time is 15 mins because they get caught up talking to other customers. The wraps are great and so are the juices but the wait time is very undesirable.“
