“I mean, first off I'd like to say, if you're coming here, you MUST order the Picadera sampler. I mean, I think about it from time to time and this is what keeps me coming back. The ambiance is good and wait staff is wonderful. I don't love the Ala carte pricing as others have said but the food is great and the vibes are good so worth going on a nice date night or dinner with friends.“
“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!“
“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!“
“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.“
“This was recommended to me so we went to try. I bought Solomon's one of everything. To share with the family. They were all great. The guava & cheese, chicken, pernil,pastelon,pizza, and apple pie were our favorites. The person at the register was very nice.“
“The food was amazing everything look good but the baked chicken was so good and flavorful cooked to perfection. The rice mixed with black beans and veggies so good the avocado a wide selection of drinks. Service was amazing everyone was smiling talking to customers.. ambiance pretty just 12pm on. A Monday“
“Very cute restaurant. Nice ambiance. The food was excellent. Everyone in our group enjoyed their dishes ranging from pork chops to steak to shrimp. The waitress was very attentive and prompt. Only negative was the person at the entrance who told us they opened at 12 (posted time was 11:30) Definitely recommend“
“The Food at Brisas Del Mar is in Far Rockaway the food looked absolutely delicious there were some good choices to choose from that was on their menu and the service was good I was taken care right away and the price was good for what I picked out I would go again when I get the chance check them out if you're in the area ???“
“I went for first time as recommendation. I am looking for a place that has good food where I can order trays for a party. The staff was helpful and during a busy time which seems like it always is for them. They were able to get my order (sampling the food options) put together quickly. I will definitely be placing my party trays with them for my upcoming event. The food I ordered to sample was great and tastes home made.“
“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.“
“So happy to have found this Spanish food place. Been here twice... both times the food was fresh and delish. Baked chicken was well seasoned and juicy but my favorite will always be ox tail. They did not disappoint. Not the friendliest service but fast and efficient.“
“Food tastes as if my grandmother was in their kitchen whipping up amazing food. I have yet to experience anything that wasn’t absolutely delicious. Ribs, pernil, Chicharrón, seafood, beans, soups, desserts, the list can go on. Make your way here, you won’t be disappointed!“
“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“

“Got a crazy craving for Dominican food this morning, ordered their Tres Golpes, SonCocho, with rice and , pollo empanadas, bottom line, very delicious. Didn’t disappoint, I felt like I was in heaven. Will definitely order again in the future. Thank you so much ?“
“I saw they offered catering and I set up 10 food trays with them which they efficiently provided at the exact time I needed it.The food is delicious and I must say the pernil and fried chicken bites are a must!I couldn’t have asked for a better caterer , 5/5 hands down .“
“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“
“Omg I have eaten lots of ribs in my years, but p&c spanish restaurant knock it out of the park and then some, the ribs so tender and it tasted like you are actually eating a pernil from old school cook, please don't ever change it I love it the best I ever ate,Kid-friendliness: They are friendly with everyone.“
“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 here is hands down the best “Spanish” Dominican style food in Brooklyn!!! Everything is always fresh! Nice and hot! And free flavors will blow you away! The staff? Well the staff and service make you feel right at home. My favorite neighborhood spot. Try the steak and onions with rice and beans and a side salad or maybe even the Sancocho!! Honestly I can’t just choose one dish. They’re all delicious. Thank me later!!Parking: It’s street meter parking on the actual avenue … But you do get lucky and Side streets are free.Kid-friendliness: Yes it is.Wheelchair accessibility: Yes it is.“
“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!“
“Best Dominican Food in all of Brooklyn! I’ve been going to Ari’s Pollo for years! I order from them every Friday night too!We often order the Pepper steak, Beef Stew, Steak w/ onions, Pork Chops, Rotisserie Chicken and Chicharrón de pollo- depending on what we’re in the mood for! I always get a few chicken empanadas too!“
“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!“
“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“
“My girlfriend and I were suppose to go to Ihop and for some reason found by this place. Upon entering, we saw all the selection of what we can order. The staff was very friendly and accommodating.My girl had a yuca and eggs combo while i had a Italian combo sandwich. The food had great flavor byt the best was the coffee .I would definitely recommend this place and I'll be coming back. This definitely was a better breakfast option than Ihop .“
“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!“
“Amazing food! Excellent service! Outstanding juice bar!!! We had the Moro and ribs and chicken cutlet… yellow rice and beans and pastelon… delicioso!!! Please go here!!! I highly recommend this place… wow!! By the way….. the prices are great!“
“My favorite spanish food restaurant. Food is delicious, service is excellent, alcoholic drinks to die for, as soon as you walk in u are costeously greeted! We always go mid afternoon because we go with our little one but if u go late afternoon-night u will find the adult astmosphere u r looking for. Ppl say the restaurant is pricy but to me is worth it, the food quantity is great and delicious, can't order appetizers bc if i do i wont b able to finish my food. Overall go try it u wont regret. Esther is very nice and corteous, they all are but Esther is my #1 girl“
“My wife and I have eaten here for many years now. Best grilled salmon and skirt steak we have eaten and not over priced the owners and staff are very friendly always attentive of customers need. We want to especially thank Donna who is our regular server she goes above and beyond not only for us but to all the customers she serves. And she also makes the best apple martini.“
“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.“
“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...!!!“
“I don’t know what people are talking about ! The food service was amazing the food was fresh and did not feel out of place.Being a person of color I felt comfortable going in and trying Dominican delicacies. Y’all stop lying ! That might have been the previous owner but this place is under new management!Came all the way from melrose in the BX, this place is 100%“
“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 !!“
“(Translated by Google) Good flavor, very friendly and helpful staff, parking available and easily accessible. Thank you for your good attentions.(Original)Buen sazon, personal muy amable y servicial, parqueo disponible y de facil acceso. Gracias por sus buenas atenciones.“
“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.“
“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.“
“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!“
“(Translated by Google) I recommend this very good place, good service, a unique atmosphere, quite cool music and where you will spend an unforgettable moment, it makes a difference …(Original)Recomiendo este lugar muy bueno , buen servicio ,un ambiente único, una música bastante cool y donde pasarás momento inolvidable, marca la diferencia …“
“I knew this place was going to be good — I love hole in the wall joints. And boy, was I right. The food was on point, the price cannot be beat, and Anthony, my server, was delightful.5/5 across the board and definitey will be returning!“
“for my own experience personally, their food is really good especially their baked chicken is fire and they give you a decent amount of food for the price. oh yeah and you must try the chicken empanadas I live across the street so I always go and pick up my food so I know that my Oder is being made properly other then that love it“
“Amazing place I’ve been eating there for 11 years!! Their staff is ever so kind to everyone. Food is affordable and delicious. The restaurant is in a good location near tons of apartments so it’s good to order food and good to go down there and dine!! 110% recommend food is fresh and cultural.kid friendly towards being treated and also with the food portionsKid-friendliness: I’ve went there when I was really little not once have I ever gotten food I haven’t loved I used to go in there confident in what I wanted to get and the portions were just small enough for me to eat with barley and left overs“
“Owners are super nice. They care about people individually and always polite. Very clean establishment. For the price the portions are a nice size. The fresh juice options are endless. The large is a full meal in itself. Always a pleasure stopping in. Parking is tricky, but they are quick with service so double parking is a norm.“
“Came in around 7 on a Friday night. Found parking s few blocks away. I’m not naive. I know it’s Brooklyn but the walk from the car to the spot was sketchy. Some kids aimed a colorful nerf/ water gun at me. I didn’t like that. But once inside all the riffraff of the block is forgotten. The lightning, the murals, and the decor have a really nice vibe. They had some music playing and the ambiance was chill. There was one other table occupied at the time and the space was nice and open with a spot in the back for live music I’m assuming.The service was good. Our waitress was attentive and helped us with suggestions. She was able to accommodate our little side requests and chances to the menu.I order the fish tacos and the corn on the cob. I had the sangria/margarita drink which was super overpriced but good. The fish tacos were good not out of this world but a good size with a good amount of fish. I added some hot sauce and it hit the spot. The corn was flavorful and tasty. It was cut up into 3 pieces.My friend ordered the fried fish entree with a seafood crème sauce and substituted the rice for beans. Along with the montaditos (one beef, one chicken, and one veggie) and the passion fruit fizz for drinks. It was a good portion of food. She had lots to take home. It had oysters and crawfish. The sauce was delicious. The drink was strong and tasty.This spot was good. In the area, I’d def come back. There wasn’t a happy hour for Friday but other days sound good.“
“Although I didn't no much of the food selection, there were plenty of options to choose from and mix and match... the best part all at an affordable price point. I left with two platers completely full with a mix of rice, veggies, meats all for less than $19“
“Their food is delicious! I'll definitely would love to make this a regular lunch spot or when I don't want to cook I 100 percent recommend ? I can't wait to try their other dishes! I'm pregnant I'm waking up in the middle of the night thinking about it ?“
“Food is awesome, and the service always comes with a smile. Ordering online for delivery is always difficult because the buffet style food changes so often, but that's the only drawback. If you're in the area, be sure to stop in and grab a delicious reasonably priced meal.“
“Fiod is good and the ladies are nice. Always good tasting food and variety also . Reasonable prices on the menu. Have been going there right after doris unisex salon to do my hair and Judy's nail salon right opposite MI case. I make it a day of beauty and food . Treat yourself and love yourself.“
