I tried their chicken empanadas which were great! Not too oily yet deliciously crunchy! The meat was also perfectly seasoned. I would definitely return to try some of their other options.

Since I've moved to DC, I've been craving Dominican food! I'm coming from Boston and Dominican spots are very prevalent, so I ate Dominican food pretty regularly. I currently live in SE DC, so not very many Dominican spots near me. Most are across the city. I happened to be in the Columbia Heights neighborhood yesterday, and I remember a colleague telling me that would be a good neighborhood to check out Dominican food. She wasn't wrong. I pulled up google maps and noticed one within 5 minutes from me. I made my way over there! I will say there were a lot of food options when I arrived. This place is popular. In the half hour, I was there so many people came in and out. The line was moving kind of slow, though. There were only two women on the floor, but the food was worth the wait! I ordered arroz con gandules, pernil, platanos maduros, and a side of vegetables. They filled up my to go box, and the food was so good! The only point of criticism is that the food was a little too salty for me. I generally add salt to my food, but here they definitely season it a lot. If I lived closer to here, I'd def frequent this spot more, but at least, I know where to go whenever next I'm craving some Dominican food.

I cannot recommend his place enough. You need to RUN, not jog, not walk, but RUN to this place. I don't know who their kitchen staff is but they deserve an Olympic medal for some of the best Dominican food in DC. I come here and I am always in the mood for something different. Everything just looks sooo good, from the arroz con gandules to the carne guisado to the morrir sonando... (my usual order)...The great thing about this place is that I'm not even Dominican and I feel right at home. They have a great open space to dine in or take out.The staff are also amazing - they take care of you the best that they can.

Really yummy and flavorful food for an affordable price. It's like a lunch line and you can pick what you want, portion sizes are also very large. I honestly do not know the specific names of each thing I got as the person helping us didn't speak English but the rice and beans were so flavorful and the chicken was so soft and moist. We got what looked liked chicharron and the red haberno sauce was so good and acidic with it. Not much of an ambiance, it's more of a take out kind of place but we still ate there.
