Incredible getaway without leaving NYC! Once we entered (on a whim) Pop's Cocina & Bar, I felt like…read morewe were on vacation in a foreign country. The music and elegance of the atmosphere was rejuvenating and relaxing. I was so glad we walked into this beautiful hidden gem on Jamaica Avenue. I couldn't believe that such a place existed here. I felt like I walked into a restaurant in Manhattan. We started with drinks. Kids drinks came in plastic containers while adult drinks came in glass ones. We ordered Diet Coke, Sprite, Mango juice and Strawberry juice. The juices were thirst quenching and hydrating. We had steak and eggs for the 1st time and it was perfectly pink in the center with a crispy, juicy exterior. The potatoes were just right. The Eggs Benedict was just right with the yolk oozing out after you bite into it. The fettuccine Alfredo was sauced just right, not too much or too little. The California Omelette was delicious and done just right. The kids pancake was just the way our kids liked them, with sliced strawberries on top. The strawberries were so yummy, we ordered a side of them just for our kids to munch on. It was smart to give our kids crayons to draw on the paper tablecloth. It kept them busy and helped our family create a happy memory of tic-tac-toe between parents and kids. POP's Cocina & Bar definitely deserves my Yummylicious Stamp of Approval and two thumbs up! Thank you so much for an amazing foodie experience!

A New York City feel with Woodhaven, Queens. The service was cordial and efficient. I was working…read moreand they let me work in peace. I ordered Chicharon de Pollo with rice and beans, a common, no nonsense dish. It was soon presented exquisitely with three dishes Manhattan style and nicely garnered. Sorry no picture as I soon asked for a regular plate to eat my food all together Dominican Style. Brick walls accented with floor to ceiling windows and nuvo chic music with a heavy downbeat competed for my attention. I honestly thought this was a typical diner. So the restaurant was a total surprise. The Chicharon just chicken breast, cut and fried. But it was acceptable. Ugh. 4% service charge. Not cool. I still tipped well but the meal was already over priced. I was willing to make an exception but I also had to wait at the bar for my final bill.

Pretty decent looking Dominican spot that I went to out of convenience after my doctor's visit…read moreacross the street of the business so I went in for a quick lunch. Place is medium sized with a good amount of seating that could manage well during busy hours, fortunately lunchtime isn't one of those hours so I had plenty of seating. I had something simple, Half Chicken with rice & beans as well as Dominican soda on the side. Can never go wrong with comfort food and it was certainly comfortable enough to eat. Service was pretty decent, operates similar to a Diner so the food was brought to me so I'll give credit to good service. For a relatively simple meal, the cost was $20. Technically for a place like this, that is a bit on a higher side but I'm used to spending $30 for lunch that isn't in a fast food joint so to me it was relatively affordable.

However, they did seat me right under the AC and it was dripping right on me so I wasn't too happy for that but it was a full house. We asked to switch seats but another party walked in and looked at their empty table so their hands were tied. You can never go wrong with the pargo Frito or any of the steaks for that matter. Everything always comes out sizzling fresh and portions are huge so you can actually consider sharing with one other if you don't have a huge appetite. I think I had the Casuela de mariscos which is so so rich in flavour and soup. Loved this dish so much and having steak on top of that? Amazing!! Service was great - our server was attentive and got us everything we needed. Sometimes the other servers don't pay much attention to you but maybe that's just the vibe here. Would still return for the food bc it's one of the best!

I am a registered nurse and after a long exhausting day at work I stopped here around 7:50 pm to…read moregrab a simple meal. I ordered a half baked chicken with white rice and beans because I was craving good fresh chicken. What I received was extremely disappointing. The chicken was incredibly dry hard and almost impossible to bite into. This was not slightly overcooked. It was clearly old and had been sitting too long. There were several chickens still in the warmer and anyone cutting and serving it could see immediately that it was not good enough to give to a customer. By the time I got home and opened the container I was shocked. The chicken looked terrible and tasted worse. Dry tough and flavorless. The entire reason I came here was for good baked chicken and instead I was served something that should never have left the counter. When you are serving food that late you still have a responsibility to serve quality or to say it is no longer fresh. I would have preferred honesty over being given food that was clearly past its prime. Imagine having to spend $15 and then you get home to unwind and encounter this? Very disappointed and I will think twice before referring anyone.

Overall we all enjoyed our food and the prices were very reasonable.
