The best Dominican restaurant left in all of Williamsburg. The rest have gone to shyts. I really hope these guys stay in business forever. Super good food. Large portions. Reasonable prices.

A neighborhood Dominican restaurant which is delicious and yummy. All food are freshly prepared.Their rotisserie chicken is one of the best I have ever had.And chicharrón and beef curry are well seasoned and cooked to the perfection.A lot of regular customers come in for take out. There are some tables inside for dine in too.Do check if you are nearby.

I stood there for 10min watching them serving other Spanish speaking people walked in after me. They don't care and they don't speak English. Until some customers asked if I have been served I said no. Cause I don't know how much I couldn't find the menu. Then they spoke Spanish to the people at the serving station and they called their boss. The boss comes out and told me the food has no price and depends on what you pick. So i said a quarter chicken and maybe a side of rice. $9. Wow. Maybe I'm not used to this type of service and price. I don't feel welcome and won't come back.

Ordered food to pick up over the phone .....they told me 20 minutes so I started going there after 30 minutes got there waited an extra 30 minutes more for just a picaderra And on top of that they fried it so much that it was so hard it hurt my teeth and mostly bones without any meat. The tostones were soggy as well. I'm sorry they are not what they were before any more. Ordered spaghetti that had no true Dominican taste either. I won't be going there again

Wonderful local Colombian spot with generous portions. There is often a line out the door when I walk by. Tried it today for the first time, this review is based on a single visit. It's a little confusing when you walk in: there were no apparent menus and no prices posted, you just point at what you want. They had several people behind the counter and they were happy to answer questions about what was being served. Standard round tin of rice or rice and beans, with a meat and veggies on top of you want (make sure you request vegetables if you want them, they are not automatic.) We got lunch specials at 4 pm. Line goes fast. I had Pollo Guisado (stewed chicken) Order consisted of three pieces of chicken, two legs and a thigh, which fell off the bone with just a gentle tug of the fork. Flavor was very nicely done, mild, with a delightful gravy which was quickly soaked up by the rice. I saw another customer ask for gravy in the side and wished I had followed this example when I got home, as the gravy entirely soaked up. I added my own hot sauce at home, the flavors are great but I wanted a little kick. It stood up well to my very robust hot sauces and required very little onlyfor kick, not flavor. My husband got the Fried pork skin/Chicharron de Cerdo. Nice amount of meat, and absolutely lovely fried skin with good texture. It was slow eating due to the chewiness, but he was happy. He saved some of the meatier pieces for later (it was a huge amount of food for $10) but I doubt the skin would survived well, it was perfect crispiness but once it cooled it may have just been hard and greasy. I wouldn't know, we ate it all! Overall love that this is place is nearby. Will definitely go back. Found a takeout menu on request so I feel less unprepared next time, but winging it was kind of the charm.

All is forgiven, this food is good again. Couldn't stay away. They fixed the salty chicken. Everything is delicious. I go here often. Cheap and delicious.

Nope. For starters $10 for this? It was extremely dry. Not good at all. I didn't even finish it to be honest. Should've got halal from Sammy's in Williamsburg. This was gross.
