The food here NEVER disappoints. They cook it just right with amazing flavor. This is the perfect spot to come to when you're craving a good meal, you're drunk or even for a hangover cure.
Great quality food and pricing. -

found this gem while looking for a quick appetizer type bite and place an order for pick up. Was told the food will be ready in 20 minutes and it sure was when I got there. I hadn't read the reviews much I just saw a few pictures so I was shocked to come and see they had karaoke on Saturdays. The vibe was very Santo Domingo if you ask me being from there and seeing everyone sit outside with a few beers and food is so chill. I will most def come back on a weekend to enjoy the vibe.
We got a large picadera that is suppose to serve 3-4 people but honestly it was so much food! Tostones, Longaniza, salami, pollo, carne frita & cheese. I've never met a Dominican restaurant who gives so much protein in the picadera I was in heaven! Only bad thing was that for all that carne we only had about 10 pieces of cheese *insert sad face here* most def needs more cheese but this was excellent. For $25 totally worth it. -

Great place to eat. If you've been to the Dominican Republic then get ready to revisit when you come here. Authentic dominican food, the best in Miami, hands down. The prices are great as well and it's a very chill atmosphere.
Oh, and $3 beers! Lol -

I really liked this place. The food was very good, service was good but I found it a little pricey and the music was too loud. I'll give it another try.

I found this place looking for good authentic Dominican food online. I saw the great reviews and thought I'd come give it a try. It looked like a local's spot and hole in the wall restaurant from the reviews and pictures, so I was excited to try it out.
My girlfriend an I pulled in and there is parking out front along with on the side of the restaurant. We were a little puzzled at first because it is a little hard to tell which part is the entrance of the establishment. There was Spanish music playing that is audible from the parking lot, so we walked our way towards it!
The place is not fancy in the least. The whole feel of this restaurant reminds me of being in someone's backyard with a canopy blocking out the sun. I've never been to the Dominican Republic but I assume this would give off the feel of being there. That's the best way I can explain it! They were at about 80% capacity when I got there and everyone was looking like they were having a great time. Just about everyone had a bucket of Coronas at their table. We were greeted promptly and looked at the specials for the day, along with their regular menu. We decided to go for the Chicken stew with rice and beans, and the chicharron de pollo (fried chicken pieces) with rice and beans as well.
The food came out fairly quickly and it looked and smelled divine. It was a generous portion and we couldn't wait to dig in. The chicken stew was phenomenal. The sauce was delicious and flavorful and the chicken was cooked to perfection and tender. The rice and beans were equally as good. My girlfriend's chicharron de pollo was also delicious. Extremely crispy pieces of chicken packed with flavor. Both of our dishes tasted homemade; just like someone's grandmother cooked these meals just for us at their home. The prices were more than fair ($9 & $11 for our meals) and you get a great portion of food.
If you are looking for an authentic Dominican meal you must come check this place out. This place is not for ambience or a fancy night out. Its for good food with good people! Can't wait to come back and try another dish!
