This place is an amazing example of an authentic Dominican food restaurant... I've been going here most of My life and I'm 36years old... The service is awesome and they treat the customers with respect...
The wait was long, however food was good.
One of the best Latino Caribbean food restaurants in Philadelphia

El Principe Restaurant is a go-to spot for authentic Spanish cuisine, conveniently located caddy-corner from Episcopal Hospital. The menu features a big selection, including roasted chicken or pork, rice (red or white), and a variety of flavorful stews, each with its own unique taste. The baked pork with yellow rice and plantains is particularly noted for its deliciousness. The salad is also a highlight, and the tres leche cake is described as addictive. The small, comfortable, and clean interior enhances the dining experience, though parking is very minimal, requiring some guests to double park or use the middle of the street. While the staff may have varying levels of English proficiency, they manage to communicate effectively. Despite a few service issues, the food is consistently fresh and reminiscent of homemade grandmother's cooking, making El Principe a hidden gem worth visiting.
