Visited this place and the food was very authentic and service was great. They provided a great selection of Dominican Food.
The definitely a must visit. The wait time was not long at All.
Would recommend their typical Dominican dishes. -

I came to this place to try out the Mofongo. I ended up getting the lunch special. I truly enjoyed my food, and I definitely would like to come back to actually try them for mofongo! I chose the lunch special because the price was right! You get a lunch size portion of food along with a soda. The bartender was very nice the people were very hospitable. I would like to come here to try Mofongo because I cannot find places that can do it right in this area. I would deathly come back again for another lunch special. I cannot offer too much more information because I was only in there for a matter of minutes. The food was so good, I started eating it at the bar before I could even get up to leave. LOL. I give this place a four only because of the Decour. It is not a big deal, but I don't want anyone to come in expecting a fine dining experience when clearly it is a local mom and pop restaurant.

Hey, it's authentic and very flavorful! I've been several times and I can't believe that I haven't reviewed this restaurant before. They must need a fresh review and perspective.
The dining room is very specious with a bar in the back of the room. They have added TVs and I even saw a disco ball in the ceiling which leads me to believe that there must be some time that they turn this into a dance party! I can see them doing the salsa and Macarena.
The waitress was pretty friendly. She had about 6-7 tables all by herself and she handled them very well.
I ordered the stewed chicken which comes in this flavor filled gravy. I can literally drink the sauce it comes in and I believe I have! The rice and beans were just my side and very good. I enjoyed my lunch and anytime I'm on this side of town I'll definitely stop by and grab lunch. -

The happy hour mojito is worth the trip. Plus they do a military discount. The fried pork was also good.

We finally came here in August. We pass it all the time and we've been wanting to check it out for the last couple of years. I was a little hesitant because you can't see into the restaurant at all but it was finally time to make it happen.
I've had mofongo a handful of times (not sure how that is the case growing up in NYC and having lots of dominican friends) so I'm no expert but this is similar to what I've had in the past. It was very flavorful and pretty much what I expected. I love tostones to the point where i ordered a side of it... it was a little much, I know. I was happy with our meal and service overall.
The restaurant space is kind of weird - its a really big space and wasn't very full (we came around lunch time on a Sunday). So it was awkward to sit in the middle of this huge room. It must double as a place to party at night or just be full of people dancing because its awkward as a restaurant space. Anyway, I'm rambling. It also took a long time to get our food and I was pregnant and super hungry which didn't help.
I would probably go back for take out (not trying to sit in that big open space) if im really craving some Dominican food.
