    We came here for breakfast for my mom birthday Random place we decided to check out The service is good, they are very friendly The Ambiance is okay, very homie They play Dominican music We had 3s golpes A marisco salad N mofongo with shrimps My mom didn't like the salad She asked to change it and the waitress refused lol So my mom had to order a complete different dish. My sister also did not like her mofongo, she said it was supper hard BUTTTT while we was eating we saw a MOUSE!!! Ran right under my feet Overall... yea that's it

    My dad really wanted to come to this restaurant to eat. I enjoyed the decor because it gives you that feeling like you are in DR. I love the cups! When we went we got seated right away. I ordered the Asopao de Camarones (shrimp soup) it was sooo good. The flavor was definitely there! We also got half a chicken with white rice and beans. I loved how the chicken tasted. My dad ordered the Churrasco and shrimp. The steak was lacking in seasoning. However the plating was cute. The service is slow. This was a one and done experience for me.

    " 3 Croquetas" - de pollo

    6 balls of "croquetas de pollo" but really want just mashed potato... no chicken... Extremely expensive 6 of them for $16. ( They didn't tell me the price or nor did i see that option on the e-menu here). I also got the morri sonando , it was okay. Very good croquetas but my total was $22. Wouldn't eat it again.

    They make a really good chicken soup and white rice. That's what I purchased when I stopped in on such a cold day in February in the Bronx. It really is a nice looking reasurant. From the pictures I took the food looks pretty tasty. The three stars is for the service. I have been living in the Bronx for many years and it saddens me to still feel like my business is not wanted in some Spanish establishments. This place felt like one of them. My waitress or the woman who helped me, was not pleasant. I don't know if it was because it was in the morning, 10 a.m. or what. I just know she seemed like she was activated with everything that I asked for or about. I do know the soup was really good and maybe it was a bad morning we all have them, but I can't help to shake the feeling that this just might be one of those places that just don't like my ethnicity. We shall see, as for now Questionable Thumbs-up?

    Tabla Campesina is delicious

    Food is delicious and the service is above and beyond love it here it's a really good place for family and friends

    Don't remember the name of this platter, but it was new and not on menu yet. Priced perfectly!

    The amount of food for the price is insane! The meats were well seasoned. My only "issue" is that several of them were overcooked and therefore a little dry. However, one tray was enough for our party of six! I will definitely return when I am craving mofongo and chorizo/longaniza (Spanish and Dominican sausage)

    Mofongo de Chicharron Dominicano
    Carolina R.

    Coming here I was excited to try the mofongo because the food looks amazing in pictures. The theme of the restaurant is super cute and creative and it definitely resembles una casa de campo. When we first came there were two tables open and so the server who was on duty (an older woman) advised us to choose where we would like to sit. We sat down and looked at the menu. We decided on the traditional mofongo, which is the one with chicharron. We waited a really long time for our food to come. And an hour after ordering is when the server came to apologize and to tell us they were behind in the kitchen. The server was overwhelmed as she was the only server on duty and we overheard her saying "nobody is here helping me so idk what they want me to do" to the delivery guy who was getting on his bike to take an order. After this we waited about 20 more minutes and the food finally came. This restaurant is the place to go if you love posting food videos on your Instagram. However, the food is not that great. I was excited to try the mofongo and I expected it to have a real Dominican authentic cheese sauce and/or at least topped with real cheese. But instead they use some cheap nacho cheese that can be found at your nearest 7/11. This sauce can have potential if they really cared for their guests they'd make an exquisite cheese sauce with some GEO cheese or queso de oja. From the DR with so many great cheeses and ingredients they can definitely crear something palatable. Now let's talk about the chicharron. No crispy skin, 90% fat, no flavor. On the menu this is described as "Dominican style" chicharron. And if you are not Dominican please don't be fooled. This is not it. I was so disappointed Lastly, and the most shocking thing was that they serve their natural juices in tin mugs, which in the DR are a tradition. In every Dominican household we have these and it is a nice touch to the restaurant, which has a campesino vibe to it. However, after enjoying the delicious pineapple and guanabana juice we were greeted by the rust at the bottom of the cup. ALOT of rust. When I saw this after indulging in my delicious juice I was disgusted and I contemplated wether or not to tell the server. After going back and forth with my fiancé, I decided to do it and her reaction was appalling. When she approached our table I signaled for her to come closer and I told her in a low voice since there were many guests around and I didn't want to make it as if we are trying to make the place look bad. She stated and I quote "oh no mama, this is how these cups are. We just received a shipping of these cups from DR and they are all rusty, so this is how it is around here and over there." Please be advised she was speaking quite loudly that the table behind us even commented on it to each other. Then i proceeded to tell her that once these cups rust, you should discard them and not continue to serve in them but she refused to understand that and at this point I just ask for my bill. The entire experience here was a disaster and the server was completely unprofessional and I think she should be trained on how to handle a situation like this. She basically screamed in our faces and belittled us in front of other guests. It was honestly embarrassing and I won't be back here. I do understand she may have been overwhelmed with all the tables she had but if she cannot handle the table she should speak up. To the manager, I hope you take my review and look into the faults here. Being a hospitality professional I know how important it is to see reviews and learn from them in order to have your business succeed. And I am not going to lie and make up a story that is not true. If you can create a thorough training manual for your staff members, it would be a valuable addition. Also maybe, empower your employees in the kitchen to incorporate more authentic ingredients into your cheese sauce.

    Worst ever, just look at this "whole rotisserie chicken " So disappointed. We know people make mistakes, but they didn't even offer to correct this incident, not even a sorry. Please beware. Food was clearly undercooked.

    Seafood platter

    The meats were very tasty but overcooked, especially the steak, which was so dry and practically burnt. The sangria was eh. Service was super slow.

    Mar & Tierra Mofongo with a side of Shrimp

    My experience was amazing. I went in there for my birthday. Food was delicious. Service was great. I would totally recommend this place. Staff was very friendly and the place was very clean. Loveeee the food. I would totally go back

    Jennifer M.

    I will give them 4 stars because they are amazing. The food is delicious always. I don't give them 5 because I don't have the full experience in person with the restaurant. I've been ordering from Uber eats. I guess when I visit them in person and will try other things on their menu I will change the rate. Other than that keep it up Campesino que tienen been sazon.

    Steak, pork chop, Batata, chorizo, tomatoes and corn

    I ordered a campesino platter and took over 1 hour and 30 min to receive my food, closer to 1 hour and 4recommend. Was super salty. The mofongo was good but not worth the wait. We also ordered steak and fries and the food was cold. We also ordered mofongo with chicharon chicken and that was super dry. I would not recomend.

    Churrasco con tostones
    Chris A.

    I loveeee this place. It's a taste of DR here in the Bronx. The location is great, the restaurant is bright, modern, and alive. I came on opening night and even though the place was packed, service NEVER faltered. Very impressive. I ordered the the Churrasco with Tostones and it was on point, cooked the way I ordered it (medium), and the tostones were crispy, not over overcooked. Our waiter was very attentive and she was a sweetheart. This place is a gem. The food, music, setting and staff is a reminder of all that is good in The Dominican Republic. Highly recommended.

    Came with some friends who ate here before and recommended the Dominican food here. While service…read morewas a bit slow, and you're charged for water (no tap, only bottle), food was bomb. I got the fried Boca chica red snapper fish with yucca fries. Fish was fried to perfection. Fries were delicious and in an addictive garlicky sauce. I was disappointed because they have a specials menu but the waiter said none of the specials were available (and they had an oxtail stew for Sunday which would've been bomb)! My husbands fried chicken dish was so good. The wings, thigh, and drumstick were fried to perfection and super juicy inside. The tostones were delish too! There is valet parking but i think it's $15.

    I rarely leave one-star reviews, but this experience--and the response to my feedback--left me with…read moreno choice. My friends and I arrived at Sho J Oregano's Crescent Avenue location at approximately 9:45 PM. The restaurant's posted closing time was 10:00 PM, yet we were told they would not seat us. Disappointed but willing to give them another chance, we paid for a taxi to their White Plains Road location, which was listed as being open until 11:00 PM. We arrived around 10:00 PM only to be told that they were also closed and would not serve us. The result? We wasted time, money on transportation, and an entire evening chasing a meal at a restaurant that was supposedly open. What made the experience even more disappointing was the response after I shared my review. Rather than acknowledging the inconvenience or apologizing for the confusion, the restaurant chose to challenge my account. I have no reason to misrepresent what happened. My review reflects exactly what my group experienced that evening. This isn't about expecting to be served after closing. It's about arriving during the posted business hours at two separate locations and being turned away both times. If the kitchen closes early or there is a last-seating policy, that information should be clearly posted online and at the restaurant. Customers shouldn't have to guess whether "open" actually means the business is still serving guests. For a restaurant that has received so much praise, I expected far better customer service and accountability. Great food can earn awards, but honesty, consistency, and respect for customers are what earn loyalty. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend making a special trip here unless you're prepared for the possibility that the posted hours may not reflect when they'll actually serve customers.

The food is delicious, very well seasoned and presented well…read more The ambiance is amazing as the crew came in and sang happy birthday to one of our guests and did so in an authentic Dominican way, it felt like we were in the island. The staff were fantastic. They offer valet parking which is great for the area which is really crowded. The churrasco was so good I could have eaten another one. The only problem I encountered was that the Mofongo with Chicharron although it tasted great the, it was served in a small pilon, wooden bowl used to mash the plantains, with the chicharron on top. They poured garlic sauce over the top and it made a mess all over the bowl. Additionally the bowl was too small for you to eat it without pouring it into the plate. They should reconsider how they serve it because it was very messy to eat. The flan though was perfectly made, reminding me of Puerto Rican flan, light and airy. A really nice experience at this place, worth another visit.
