“My husband and I went to eat here last night and we loved it. Very delicious food and very beautiful presentation. The restaurant was full and they were a little understaffed, so it took a long time for the food to arrive, but the owner was so kind and thoughtful to give us everything we ate that night for free and also gave us a bottle of wine. I wish I would've asked him his name, but very nice guy. We are definitely coming back soon.“
“Happy with the Hackensack branch, before I had to drive 20 minutes now I have it close to home. The food is delicious and what I love most are their juices and smoothies..!! If you are on a diet, it has green juices and healthy smoothies. If not, I recommend my favorite, which is sapote or Mamey..!! The girls are nice, good service, super clean. Recommended 100%Dietary restrictions: Well I see that it has green juices, although I don't like them...!! But those who want healthy smoothies this is the place.Parking: Well, it has about 14 parking spaces, I don't think I counted them correctly, but the good thing is that I always find parking.Kid-friendliness: The portions are perfect for the little ones in the house, the empanadas and the yucca buns I know they love them.“
“We staying next door at the Muse and I walked the 20 steps to Margon to get a cafe con leche and tostada cubana. I was blown away. As born and raised Miamian, I can honestly tell you that the best cafe con leche is found at Margon in Manhattan. Hands down. And the ambiance reminds me of the old-school cafeterias and bakeries my grandfather and dad would take me to as a little girl. Keep doing what you’re doing .. loads of blessings and suerte, your way!“
“The fried calamari made an excellent chioce for antipasti - the squid was fresh & batter was tasty. For secondi, the branzino (fish of the day) was impressive as well - fish was fresh and I loved the charred and crispy skin. I was glad that I had some space for dessert, as the tiramisu was exactly the way I liked it - moist with decent amount of coffee flavour. Waiters were friendly, and service was good and quick.“
“First off the staff are amazing - warm and friendly. Like you just walked into someone’s home. They patiently guided us through the menu, and brought out frozen glasses with our perfectly chilled beer. Ordered the chicken and pork stews with a side of plantains, everything was delicious. Almost made 5 stars - could have been slightly less salty and it would’ve!“
“The closest you will get to Dominican food without being in Dominican Republic. The sangria is also extremely strong, which is an amazing thing. Absolutely love this place, strongly recommend everything on the menu especially the rotisserie chicken, best chicken ever, my go-to spot every time I cross the GWB. 5/5“
“Delicious and fabulous service! The service workers recommended the passion fruit tres leches and it was fabulous; the passion fruit layer added some tartness to the otherwise sweet cake.Out of abundant generosity they also gifted me a piece of their traditional tres leches cake. It was also delicious but definitely more sweet, without the fruit layer. Recommended with coffee!“
“Saw great reviews. Decided to order some lasagna. Beef lasagna has rich flavor, pls be mindful the portions are tiny); chicken ? lasagna was definitely delicious and smth newThe packaging is great; you can tell they really put effort in making sure no spills are happening“
“Finally…authentic, delicious Dominican food that I don’t have to go into NYC to order. My gathering was such a hit , catering was the best! The pictures won’t do this place justice. It’s the taste of a hole in the wall I missed so much. From their chicharron (fried pork rinds), to classic mangu (mashed plantains) with cheese, eggs + sausage. I’m drooling just looking through my food pictures from them. This review is long overdue. Trey it for yourself you won’t regret it!! Did I mention how friendly they all are? The service was great too!“
“I've never wanted to give a business 5 stars more than Leche y Miel. They generously hooked me up with a meal several times while I drove for Amazon in the area. I love the food the staff and the spirit of the team here. They have been the best part of my job. Alda said the food was on the house and I replied "you just made my...Life!" I strongly recommend checking them out if youre in the riverdale area.“
“I returned last week to the rooftop brunch, there isn't much variety on the food menu, I don't like drinking the mimosa in the jars they give out ?, the atmosphere was pleasant and so was the attention of the waitress. Her name is Genesis.I loved. I was on the 2nd floor, although the air conditioning is not felt much, a group of 18 people paid 65 each for brunch. Good atmosphere, very varied music.“
“Good place...I would come back. I got some shrimp and octopus salad in a vinaigrette to stay. Very fresh... very good, served in a bowl on top of some chopped lettuce with a slice of lime. Some of the workers here don't really speak any English... but there was someone here who was able to help me even though my Spanish kind of sucks. A delivery of food from one of the restaurant's vendors was coming in while I was standing at the counter to order, and I had to keep moving out of the guy's way as he went in and out of the store with the hand truck. A bit of a pain, but I forgive them since they've got a fully functional and clean All-Gender Bathroom. The stuff here ain't cheap, but it's quality.“
“Food was hot and delicious. In an ideal world I would have liked a bit more separation between all the people coming in to pick up food vs dining in. I dined in with my family and had a great time, food was fresh.I liked the paintings on the wall. I would go back again.Parking: Parking meters on block in front of location.“
“Was pleasantly surprised when I first saw them open. Had been looking for a new place to eat and La Caridad 72 did not disappoint. The food is, in a word, Delicious!!! It's been a real joy sampling the many culinary delights found on their diverse menu. They have something tasty for every type of palette. Recently tried their beef stew and I can't stop thinking about the sauce. Utterly amazing!!! Between their wonderful food and their friendly, top notched staff, you can not go wrong dining at La Caridad 72. Bring your friends. Bring your family. Bring your kids. You WILL NOT be disappointed!!! Enjoy, I did :-)“
“The food was absolutely delicious. We waited at least 1 hour for them to tell us they didn't have pernil or oxtail. But the churasco steak was delicious. And they made up for this by giving us delicious empanadas and dessert on the house.“
“el sitio de moda que llegó para quedarse un restaurantes de comida exquisita con la mejor calidad y precio donde la atención es su sello de presentación toda lo que se cocina aquí no tiene desperdicio y los tragos y cócteles son riquísimos y deliciosos no dejes que te cuenten ven a visitarlo y cuando llegues lo primero que dirás es que te mando yo el chino“
“Pretty decent spot, not too far away from 46 which is good. Handicap accessible as the whole establishment is on one floor I had the sweet Thai chili wings extra crispy, and Lord were they amazing!! I was obsessed and so sad that I was done eating them Lol. The Bartender and Bar were super attentive and helpful. Love the service!Parking: Probably more than 20 parking spotsWheelchair accessibility: No steps all on ground level/one floor.“

“The chicken with spicy guava was tasty a little to sweet ? I was looking for garlic on my testones. The kids enjoyed the chicken fingers though. And the cocktaiks were delish. I'll visit againOh, i had the shrimp in red sauce yummy, the beans n rice were good. The service was okay a little scattered and a little long on some things but okay“
“I recently visited this Spanish chicken restaurant and overall had a positive experience. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, creating a pleasant environment for a meal. The staff was attentive and friendly, contributing to the overall enjoyable dining experience.Now, let's delve into the highlight—the Spanish chicken. While the dishes were tasty, I couldn't help but feel that they fell slightly short of my expectations. The chicken was well-cooked, but there was a subtle element missing that would have elevated it to perfection. Perhaps a bit more seasoning or a unique twist could have added that extra flair.Despite this minor critique, the menu offered a diverse selection of Spanish-inspired dishes. The appetizers, such as patatas bravas and chorizo croquettes, showcased the chef's creativity and commitment to traditional flavors. The presentation was noteworthy, with each dish appearing as a carefully crafted masterpiece.The drink menu was well-curated, featuring a selection of Spanish wines and cocktails. The sangria, in particular, was a delightful complement to the meal, adding to the overall enjoyment of the dining experience.The dessert, churros with chocolate dipping sauce, was a sweet ending to the meal. The churros were well-prepared, offering a satisfying conclusion to the culinary journey.In conclusion, while the overall experience was positive, I've rated this restaurant four stars as I believe there is room for improvement in the flavor profile of the Spanish chicken. I still recommend this establishment for its ambiance, attentive service, and creative menu, with the hope that the culinary aspects can reach“
“(Translated by Google) Excellent Dominican Creole food if you want to eat tasty you have to visit themDon't forget to order the pork with chicharrón(Original)Excelente comida criolla dominicana si quiere comer sabroso tienen que visitarlosNo se les olvide pedir el cochino con chicharrón“
“So I decided to visit this restaurant because it has good reviews and the menu looked good. When I first arrived here, I was a little doubtful of my decision to come, as this restaurant is quite simple and easy to miss. I decided to go in after seeing several other people come in. I ordered chicken chicharrones with tostones and was told it would be a short wait for them to be made fresh. It wasn't a long wait and I saw the very generous portions of food I was getting. I also ordered a large chicken soup. The price was very fair and everyone who worked in the restaurant was very friendly. Being able to speak Spanish is an advantage but not completely necessary. Let me tell you something, the delicious fragrance emanating from the food was almost impossible to resist on the way home, and it made my car smell better than any air freshener. The soup was ridiculously delicious, filled with chicken and vegetables and just amazing. Even my cats couldn't resist the aroma and taste of chicken. The chicharrones were a little overcooked but still incredibly delicious. I'm so glad I found this place and I could really go here every day. I recommend anyone to stop by here and enjoy their delicious food.Parking: It's a little difficult to find parking right in front of this place, but there is ample free parking on the side streets.“
“Habichuelas con dulce. A national drink of the Dominican Republic, usually made during Easter.Sold for years in this corner by Nena a mainstay in the Dominican Community. Who was really sweet.A constant line of folks come and go. I was lucky and had no wait. As I heard some days, the lines are pretty longThe spot is pretty popular. On the day I went, there was media as well.Made with red beans, cinnamon, nutmeg, coconut milk, evaporated milk, and dunked with milk cookiesThis drink is great. It's almost like hot chocolate but not quiet. It's warm , silky smooth little nutty, creamy and sweet. It'a known as a deseert as well.It does have a holiday drink vibe to it.Habichuelas means beansThe drink is $2. They also sell a corn based dessert. Looked popular. Will get it next time.“
“This place is amazing! Super friendly service, delicious smoothies and some of the best prices for fresh smoothies and juices in the area. Very generous sizes too!Dietary restrictions: They have almond milk, coconut milk and coconut water for smoothies. Vegan friendly!“
“Saw the restaurant on YouTube and decided to go. Not sure what I got. But it was amazing. The beans were excellent, full of flavor and not over powering. The pork was nice and tender, used a plastic knife to cut easily. The place itself is honestly a questionable place, hole in the wall place. However the chef Anita and the server (seen on YouTube) were amazing. $20 for two people. Salad (not pictures) was also included“
“I came here a few days ago and I had a great experience, very clean, cozy and good vibes. Excellent customer service, food and juices, the manager Cinry took care of me and I was really happy with her vibe. Thank you guys for the great experience, I’m coming back very soon!!!!?“
“This is it. THE spot for mofongo and chicharrones! Both were moist and flavorful. I was crying inside as I tasted the first few bites knowing I'll be back again and again. Friendly and welcoming service too! Will be back soon to try the other items“
“Space is limited, if possible I recommend buying to go. However, we were a group of 6 and the ladies kindly helped us accommodate two tables. The food was delicious, and the portion was more than enough. Perfect to get out of the fast food routine to eat something more homemade. I would definitely go again“
“Used this restaurant for my Dads party. Placing the order was smooth, they accepted payment over the phone and they were willing to work with me on pick up time. Food was ready when I arrived and our guests could not stop raving about how good it was!Thank you !“
“I had the chicharron de pollo with white rice and red beans and they were really tasty! ?? Next time I need to ask for lime for the chicharron de pollo and more of those little dressing things that come with the combo. Idk what it was but the creamier one tastes really good with the tostones and the thinner dressing elevated the flavor of the red beans!“
“Listen here and listen clear: HANDS DOWN THEE BEST FRITURA ANYWHERE ON THIS SIDE OF THE PLANET!!! I REFUSE to eat orejitas from ANYWHERE else!!! Them thangz feel as soft as baby butt!!! Feel like they boil them things for a week in a giant pot before frying them!!! ???? Buy without hesitation! Everything here is wonderful! ?“
“this is the best Dominican restaurant In New Jersey the food is always good, I moved to NJ from NYC summer 2022 and was looking for a authentic Dominican homemade style restaurant and after trying different places and different restaurants went to many different cities I saw a tiktok suggestion of this place went on a drive because let me tell you it is a 25 min to go and 25 to come back but the mofongos and yaroas are worth it, you also should try their Plato del dia la ensalada mixta is a most, other than that the place is always clean and the people is very friendly, i love it!!“
“Chicharron is 1000% hands down delicious. This is for my peeps who love the best of anything and are willing to overlook...let's say the "big picture". I will be honest, my first impression of the location was underwhelming but it is not about the location when it comes to this Dominican cuisine. Service is very good and courteous. Not the place you would want to sit and eat there but definitely grab your takeout and rejoice! Elsa is the queen of chicharron for a reason. Get your fix this is not for the bougie.“
“La Casa de Frida emerges as a stellar happy hour destination, perfect for those seeking a swift libation. Boasting two distinct happy hour specials--running from 12 to 5 and another from 5 to 7--the spot delivers not only variety but also affordability.While the drink specials shine, the culinary offerings fall short of the happy hour pricing ethos, presenting full-priced wings, quesadillas, and tacos. Despite this culinary mismatch, the prospect of returning solely for the libations remains alluring. La Casa de Frida excels in crafting drinks that tantalize the taste buds, promising a delightful journey to tipsiness by the third round.Noteworthy is the commendable service; during our visit, my companion and I decided to explore a special $30 shot of Patron Alto, intrigued by its novelty. To our surprise, the establishment went above and beyond by generously gifting us another expensive shot on the house, acknowledging our curiosity and enhancing our overall experience. This gesture adds an extra layer of satisfaction to the visit, creating a positive memory that encourages a return for both the drinks and the exceptional service.“
“The food is ok. The only plate that has really stood out to me when it comes to taste is their “pollo al cadero”. I’ve been here on numerous occasions. Trying a different plate each time. The price for the order I would say is a bit on the high end when compared to prices and quantity of other near by establishments. Their pork meat is usually on the undercooked side, the boneless chicken breast is very bland. With that being said owner and employees are awesome great attention to service, and always seem eager to please. If you do visit try the “pollo al caldero” you will not be disappointed.“
“There were lots of cars outside which I knew was a good sign! It's a very casual Dominican takeout spot near La Guardia Airport and a friend and I were looking for a quick breakfast. They had pre-made food at a hot bar behind the counter. Staff was friendly and we were served quickly. Food was hot and delicious!“
“Had the food at a birthday party earlier in Dec. Was so good then we placed a very large catering order for Christmas Eve. With so many picky eaters, the food was a 10 out of 10. Drove nearly an hour to pick up and worth every minute of the drive and gas. They actually mistakenly left off a tray that we paid for in the Xmas eve chaos. They sent it to us via Uber! Talk about great service in a crazy holiday! We really REALLY love this food!!! A hundred thank yous for making our holiday family party a huge success!!!“
“Best food in the 161 court area of the Bronx. Hands down. I also used them to cater my holiday party and the food was Top notch !!! Also the everyday food menu is extensive so there's something for everyone and the sandwich guy is official !!“
“It's often a challenge to find vegan options. Mamacita's didn't let me down. The veggie fajitas were easily customized and de-LICIOUS...! The strawberry margarita was fire too...! Thank you Daniella, Cameron, and PK for the hospitality...!!!“
“If you're looking for the Spanish home made taste then this is it. The beans taste like grandma made them and everything else is delicious, I really enjoy eating here often.Vegetarian options: They usually have. rice, beans, steam vegetables, salads and other side dishes to offer non meat eaters options“
“The best quality food , best energy and best service in the world. Very affordable compared to what they could charge and they treat everyone kindly. Feels like home and is my go-to spot when I don't cook. Everyone is working hard so have patience when you stop in its busy for a reason! Wishing Polanco triple the success and prosperity in 2024! Well deserved.“
“This is a typical Dominican restaurant in the Bronx, however, there food is slightly superior to those in the neighborhood. The chicken and beans taste better then most sorounding spots and they have great specials. The prices have hiked a bit, but with inflation it is expected. This restaurant has been around for a while and I hope it keeps thriving for many more years to come.#dominican #food #love #chicken #beans #lunch #breakfast #los3golpesVegetarian options: They have rice, beans, vegetables, plantains, and other options.Kid-friendliness: Everyone is welcome including kidsWheelchair accessibility: This is on the first floor and although the door does not open automatically, a person can come in with no issues.“
“I want to get the bad out of the way first. I do feel the prices are a bit on the expensive side by a few bucks, especially for a local restaurant. They charge NYC prices. They should also make sure the menu prices match what they charge. I was going to take a star away for the price but what I write next will explain why I didn't.The food here is absolutely delicious. I have come here for breakfast and dinner and I am never disappointed in the food. The people that work here also seem very nice. I've never had issues with the service. The ladies here seem like they are in a good mood and they are working hard. All their food is good but I want to put my focus on their beans. I am a bean loving Puerto Rican and if you are a Latino restaurant that sells beans...they better be good. Well, this place has great beans. I appreciate the flavor and consistency of the beans. There are places that give you watery or watered down beans and it is a practice that I look down on because these places don't respect the details of the beans. As for my favorite dish, I am a simple guy and I enjoy their breaded chicken with rice and beans. I will also say that their version of arroz moro is absolutely great. So yes it is a bit more expensive but the richness of the food and the portions that you get will certainly make it more palatable. For this reason, I did not take a star away.“
“Small hole in the wall shop serving up bomb food. Ordered the chicken quesadilla for pick-up was still hot, crunchy and delicious. Cheese to chicken ratio was fantastic. Sauce is delicious! Guy at the front was kind. No complaints. And to get a meal for $11 nowadays?! Unreal! Thank you!“

“I recently dined at this fantastic Dominican restaurant, and it exceeded all my expectations! The freshness of the ingredients was evident in every bite, making the dining experience truly delightful. The service was exceptionally fast, ensuring I didn't have to wait long to savor the incredible flavors. The portions were not only amazing but also generously large, providing excellent value for money. I highly recommend trying the mofongo with chicken and the whole rotisserie chicken – both dishes were absolute highlights. What's even more impressive is that all these fantastic qualities come at affordable prices. A five-star gem that I'll be returning to for more culinary delights!“
“Good service, good prices, personalized attention. Clean tidy place. If they don't have what you are looking for ready, they prepare it for you on the spot. I ordered pork chops with rice and beans, delicious. Reasonable prices. Crispy and tasty tostones. I recommend it.“
“I have been going to this small place for years. If you want to feel like you are eating at your abuelas house, this is it! The owners make you feel like you are at home. The cheapest prices in the neighborhood. They catered my last event & I could not believe the prices. To add on the owner added a nice surprise to my order - Just so thoughtful! I just love coming here... from the smell of home made food when you walk in, to the culture.“
“Coming from Washington heights, this place is the best in nj! The food is made fresh to order. So good!! Can’t go wrong with anything. Very clean truck too. This is my new spot now. They also have Uber ears, door dash and grub hub. Open till late too. Food isn’t greasy either.“
