The place was clean but needs an update my chair was fixed with duck tape AC was on the warm side..( is almost fall )
My server was nice
I got a Papaya smoothie ( I didn't appreciate the plastic cup which they reuse) dollar store glass cups are affordable and nice.
I get Shrimp 🦐 mofongo on butter sauce.
Shrimp was good
Mofongo was ok
Food was high priced
I went alone and pay almost $31 plus tips.
Didn't like the sauce
I will like to come back for sure and see an improvement.

I was feeling home sick and decided to check this place which came highly recommended. It did not disappoint. Every bite felt like a hug, and tasted like it was made with love. I had been craving my grandma’s cooking for weeks, and what I found here was reminiscent of that. The pollo guisado with rice definitely hit the spot, and I will 100% be returning.

We saw this place being highly rated on Google and decided to take our family for lunch. It was absolutely delicious. The restaurant was hot (that’s my only complaint). The food was good, the waitress was friendly and we’d come again. In terms of kids meals, they offer three options 1) Chicken Tenders with Fries 2) Spaghetti with Bread or 3) Mozzarella Sticks with Fries. I ordered the Banana Smoothie on a whim bc it just sounded refreshing - oh man, it was so perfect (esp bc I was hot). The special sauce they bring out is amazing (sweet with a little kick of heat at the end). My family enjoyed eating here.

During my travels I stumbled on this place and felt right at home even though I’m Puerto Rican. This Dominican joint is the truth, they are back there like Gordon Ramsay cheffing it up. Truly authentic and the menu is lit! 🔥 Fat buoy happy!

We ordered pernil, yellow rice, red beans, potato salad and plantain. Everything was really good but needed a little more seasoning. I added salt and pepper sauce, then we were good to go. The pernil was very soft and moist and we even got the crunchy skin. I eat out everyday because it’s only me in my house so to have a plate of homemade food that wasn’t from a restaurant chain was satisfying. I will definitely return. Great service and reasonable prices.

Visited this restaurant with my Dominican friend and he enjoyed it. Went for lunch. Clean establishment and quite busy. Food was good. Could have used a little more seasoning. May visit again to try another dish.
