“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!“

“I ate at this restaurant during my Christmas vacation visit to New York. It is fantastic! The staff is friendly and welcoming. The food is so tasty. It was better than the big advertised restaurants. If you want a real delicious meal and some great music while you eat, go to this place. It's a hidden gem.“

“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“

“The place is pretty small, more of a takeout style since there are only 2 stools alongside the narrow counter. I ordered the traditional chimi chimi minus the mayonnaise since I just hate mayonnaise. The sandwich comes with the beef patty, pan de agua, green tomatoes, and white cabbage, and the sauce is a mix of mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard and hot sauce. I got the homemade tamarind juice to drink. The chimi was pretty good, I loved that they really kept it traditional with the green tomatoes and white cabbage. The sauce mixture was very good. The meat itself was a bit dry and lacked flavor so you definitely need the sauce to up the flavor. The tamarind juice was absolutely delicious and tasted, just like how they make it in DR. The fried cheese balls were just ok. We also ordered the beef empanadas, which were probably my favorite item along with the delicious green sauce. The service was great. I would definitely recommend if you're in the area and want to eat chimis.“

“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.“

“What a find! A family run restaurant in a commercial/residential neighborhood that had fresh and lively flavors. All delivered by staff that care and are dedicated to their jobs. It is a bit small, but they pack a good lunch at a reasonable cost. I had the grilled chicken and yellow rice with vegetables that was filling and had flavors I never had before.“
“We stopped in before our daughter’s concert next door and the owner was extremely welcoming. The food was delicious! Our first time in the area and it was a great experience.“

“Pretty good place for authentic Dominican food. Prices are reasonable, though the food can sometimes be hit or miss. As I’ve been ordering the oxtail sometimes it’s extremely tender other times. It’s hard. As always the Cubano sandwich is always a quick bite one of the best. As for trying their many other dishes, they were all good such as the Don Miguel, the salmon and beef stew.“

“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 :-)“
“This place is very clean, has nice staff, and cooks up pretty authentic Dominican food. I ate a delicious plate of tres golpes and received a fresh plate of food with a generous portion of mangu. Wish we had places like this on the West Coast. I will come back for sure next time I’m in NYC!“

“I came to NYC around a month ago and I was looking for a place like this one, where you can buy affordable, delicious and reasonably healthy food (having eaten too many burgers and sandwiches this month). The portion sizes are quite big, I barely managed to eat all of the meat and half of the rice. The price is similar to what you'd pay to buy a meal at McDonalds, so going to this place instead is a no-brainer. The corn bread was amazing!That being said, I am giving the atmosphere just 1 star because I had the worst time waiting inside. It was also so loud that I could barely hear the person who served me both times I was there. The staff was patient and friendly enough though. The other customers, not so much. In my country, when a place is crowded, you usually wait near the door until the line starts moving, which is what I did. Someone must have thought that I was trying to cut the line and literally whistled at me and pointed to a spot behind him like I was a dog. 5 years ago, I would've left never to return again, but I understand that this is not the fault of the staff, so I stayed and bought a delicious meal. It is advisable to avoid the lunch rush and other customers some of who lack basic manners.“

“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“

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“

“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!“

“This place was insane when we walked by so we had to try it out. Not only was there a huge in person line but also there was an impromptu drive through where people were slowly edging towards the stand on their carts. They don't have a menu so I wasn't sure what to get, but the woman at the front was incredibly nice and shared with us what the desserts were. - Habichuelas Con Dulce - I have never had either of these desserts before, so I was very excited to try. I didn't expect the desserts to be hot. I think the soup by itself was okay, I was a bit surprised by the cinnamon (?) flavor but with the plantains it was really a winner as there were so many texture in the dish. - Majarete - This might sound a little rude, but this dessert kind of reminded me of the sweet version of a Chinese's corn soup. It didn't really have a pudding like texture, more of a soupy one and also the corn flavor was very intense. I did not expect to feel like you were eating just straight corn which I liked and appreciate. If you're looking for some great street food in the area, definitely recommend giving this food stall a try!“

“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.“

“My coworker and I recently tried the LaGuardia cafe during our stay in the Marriott. It was a very short walk, so we figured, why not?We were pleasantly surprised at the sheer amount of meal options including both combos, individual dishes and the prepared hot food. The employees were incredibly kind and patient as we peered through the menus and finally made our selection, while also walking us through some of their popular dishes. Our food came out fast, fresh, high in quality and quantity. The pepper steak and chicharrones were delicious and their accompaniment of side dishes was exactly the type of nutrition we were looking for! Additionally, the prices were very reasonable considering how much food we received!The atmosphere, alike many Queens restaurants, is that of family, local favorites and neighborhood institutions. While we ate, there had to have been over thirty individuals of all different backgrounds walk in, get greeted in a kind and friendly manner and immediately order their “go-to” dish that they’ve likely ordered hundreds of times before. This establishment is a reminder of the type of food that keeps a community together and well fed, and is a great representation of the diversity in cuisine available in the area. For those thinking of stopping by, I highly recommend it!“
“This place is definitely serving the community with delicious food at low prices! The pork chop over rice and fried chicken/baked chicken over rice were $8 each! It also came with beans and a fair amount of food. I think the smaller plates are $5, so wow - what a deal! It's worth the visit, so please support this man!“
“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“

“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.“
