So, I wanted a change in food and didn't want to eat the regular chain restaurant food. We were in…read morethe area to go to the Brazilian restaurant next door to Juana's Sports Bar. However, as we drove up we noticed Juana's and decided to look it up and saw that it was Dominican food. As New Yorkers (of Caribbean decents- Haitian, Jamaica and Barbadian) now living in Florida we loved going to Dominican restaurants up north and decided to try it out. (We said we would try the Brazillian spot in the next couple of weeks for our son's graduation celebration.) On to the review: We entered and were immediately greeted and asked for a table for two. We did notice and found it somewhat odd that we passed so many empty tables and were seated in the back of the room near the bathrooms. (We half joked amongst ourselves as to possibilities as to why, but shook it off and tried to make the best of the new spot.) Our waitress was very sweet and we had no issues with her. Again, it was weird where we were seated with no other diners around and the fact that our waitress was servicing another area. Usually waiters services assigned areas that are not spread out. ‍ We ordered our food and it came out fast. For a Dominican place, we thought the food was under seasoned and needed more seasoning. The chicken chunks tasted more oily than seasoned and the pork chops were nicely cooked, but then again was not well seasoned as expected. As we dined an older woman came out from the back and upon hearing folks who she greeted responded and call her Juana, I figured out that she was the namesake and owner of Juana's Sport Bar. It was a little disappointing to see her greet other patrons with a big smile and hug( who I'm sure she knows) and not even turn and give us a hi or smile out of respect for coming to her establishment. Again, we spoke amongst ourselves as to possibilities as to why. ‍ A few minutes later an older gentleman passed by with a nicer demeanor and more welcoming personality and smiled and said enjoy the food, which put us as ease. When he came back around he went behind the bar and it was safe to say he was possibly Juana's husband and co-owner. Thanks to him for making us feel welcome. Again, as we continued to dine, I noticed a younger guy walking around and kept staring at us and I told my husband this because his back was turned. This guy at first was very menacing and actually made me feel uncomfortable. It was giving vibes of hurry up and eat. It was honestly very weird and uncomfortable vibes the way he kept staring and walking by to an area where we were the only diners. After a while he actually approach the table and asked if we were done. I honestly engaged in fake conversation with him and asked if he was the owner's son and he said yes. This actually made him break his mean like demeanor and he started to smile with us. Again, continuing with my fake conversation, because I just felt a little uneasy I said this is our first time here and he said ohhhh and smiled. I then asked about the young lady setting up by the stage and he said oh it's for Karaoke and he said I can try it out and I said nooo and we had a little laugh. I guess us laughing with him somewhat "humanized" us in his eyes. ‍ Back to Ms. Juana, we were now done and was asking the table busser for some containers (because at this point our waitress was busy in another section, and the front desk woman another one that seem to be rushing out came with the check for us to pay.). It appears that the guy didn't fully understand the request for take away containers and Juana noticed and came to the table to see what was needed. Ms. Juana came over stoned faced, with not even a smile on her face or friendly demeanor and heard what was needed and communicated back to he guy in Spanish. Juana needs to be more friendlier, because she never knows who is dining in her restaurant. Overall: The restaurant is clean and beautiful and I'm sure the vibes are great on some nights. The passion fruit margarita was a 10/10, food wasn't horrible but needed more seasoning. *Chicken Chunks tastes too oily and needs more seasoning Customer Service: *Juana needs to be more respectable and much more friendlier to ALL of her customers who come to support her. It only takes two seconds to be kind. Remember someone could be having a bad day and wanted to come out to have a good time and support your restaurant. *Please don't make, non Spanish customers feel unwelcome and uncomfortable. Not everyone is a dine-dash( people who dine and don't pay) type of people. At first, we said we would be back to support, but after writing this review, have decided to look for another place where we would feel more welcomed and comfortable dining at. #VibesDon'tLie

I really wanted to love Yarumba Restaurant & Lounge because the atmosphere is actually very nice…read more It's a great place to hang out with friends, enjoy a few drinks, and relax. Unfortunately, the service has been a huge disappointment the last two times I've visited. As you can see from my photo, the restaurant wasn't busy at all, so there really wasn't a reason for the delays. We sat at our table waiting for someone to take our order while our waitress continued helping other tables and never came to ours. It wasn't until I asked for our server that she finally came over to take our order. After that, we waited nearly 40 minutes for our food, and when it finally arrived, most of it was only semi-warm. The only dish that came out fresh and hot was the steak tostones, which were delicious. Everything else, including the other entrées and sides, was lukewarm and honestly disappointing. What makes this even more frustrating is that this wasn't my first experience like this. I had previously visited with a friend and received the same poor service and semi-cold food. I decided to give Yarumba another chance by coming back with my daughter, hoping the first visit had just been an off day. Sadly, nothing had changed. It seems like the staff spends more time talking amongst themselves than checking on customers or making sure food is coming out promptly. Good food and a fun atmosphere can only make up for so much when the service consistently falls short. At this point, I don't see myself coming back for dinner. If I do return, it would only be to sit at the bar for drinks. I truly hope management addresses these issues because the restaurant has a lot of potential.
