I've been on the hunt for a banging churrasco dish since coming from PR and had yet to find one but this place did just that!

We started with an oxtail dish served over mashed plantains, layered with pork, onions, and a blend of seasonings, all brought together with a rich, flavorful sauce. Every bite was tender, savory, and perfectly balanced, you can tell this is comfort food done right. We also ordered a side of crispy pork with yellow rice and beans, and it did not disappoint. The pork had that perfect crisp on the outside while staying juicy inside, and everything paired beautifully with the fresh vegetables on the side. Service really made the experience even better. Melissa, our waitress, was sweet, professional, and incredibly accommodating, she made sure we had everything we needed without ever feeling rushed. The ambiance ties it all together. The decor gives you that authentic island, Dominican feel, making it a great spot to relax and enjoy a meal. Just a quick note: they serve beer and wine only, which still pairs nicely with the food. Overall, this was an amazing experience from start to finish. I'll definitely be back!

Wow. I haven't had much Dominican food in the past to compare this to, but this was GREAT. The…read moreportion sizes are huge and the prices are so affordable - I will absolutely be coming back here again and again. This time, I ended up getting the Chicharrón with spaghetti instead of rice and beans because I had heard that Dominican spaghetti was something I had to try, and I didn't regret it at all. For the price of $14, this was probably 1.5-2 portions of food. I will be having this for dinner later on today! Chicharrón ($14) - These were deep fried pork belly chunks and they were pretty much cooked perfectly. They were seasoned well and just so crispy and juicy. When you deep fry pork belly in chunks, it's really easy to overcook them and dry them out, but this was just wonderfully lightly crispy on the outside and still so juicy and moist on the inside. Biting into each chunk was like a wonderful burst of flavor - really amazing job on these. Spaghetti (side) - Ah yes the Dominican spaghetti. If you want Italian pasta, this is not it, but it had a certain home-cooked charm and was a type of spaghetti I had not tasted before. It was creamy, tomato-ey, and buttery. The closest I can compare is that it had the texture of chef boyardee pasta, but the taste was much more smokey with hints of sweetness and umami. It was really filling and delicious! All in all - a great deal. $14 for that much food and meat is amazing, and everything tasted really fresh and well-cooked. I will absolutely be returning!

Another day, another Spanish restaurant!…read more It's a true blessing to live around wonderful Dominican/Puerto Rican restaurants. My son loves arroz con pollo. He can eat it everyday. When I walked in, it was a little cozy restaurant with 6-7 seatings. It was lunch time so there were a few tables occupied. I was there to get lunch to go. I wish I took more pictures of the hot bar. The two lovely ladies there were nice and helpful. I wish I knew they had a lunch menu because the gentleman that came in after me, he asked for the lunch portion. Next time! I got stewed chicken and white rice/beans for $19. It's the dinner portion. Not sure if I could have gotten sides like sweet plantains or yucca. A little language barrier. For $19, I'm assuming it should come with it but didn't. That's ok! Next time ima make sure to ask. One of the ladies that came out after knew English but it was too late because I already paid for my order. My whole order came out to be $30. This included the stewed chicken, side order of spaghetti, and side order of tuna mac salad. Everything was delicious. The stewed chicken was good but compared to my other places, this is probably 4th on the list. A little too salty. The spaghetti was really good. If you never had Dominican spaghetti before, I highly you to go try! Tuna salad at this spot was really good. So far the best I've had. Will definitely come back here to try other things! Especially the lunch menu. Downfall was, I didn't see a menu. Looked around for 5 minutes but couldn't find it lol

I really wanted to like this place. Ordered food from here…read morefor the first time, and I am more than disappointed. First of all, the prices for the portion is ridiculous. I ordered on Uber Eats and the food took almost two hours to get to me, and of course it wasn't hot. Bitez Sampler 3/10 Not worth the money Honey hot Wings barely have any sauce Lemon pepper wings were good Empanada was pretty much empty, and what was inside was cold and bland. Cheese fries is what got it an extra star, but more cheese was needed Traditional Yaroa 7/10 Not bad at all but could've used more chicken & sauce on the side Chicharron Quesadillas- 1/10 Barely any meat in the soggy quesadilla. Garlic tostones 4/10 Probably would've been better if they weren't hard and cold

I normally don't write reviews, but I had to say something because this experience was too…read moreconsistent to ignore. I've ordered from here multiple times, trying to give the benefit of the doubt but enough is enough. The last couple of times I ordered the pork chop dinner, the meat came undercooked, pink in the middle, especially the thicker parts. So this time, I left a respectful note asking for it to be cooked all the way through. Not only did they ignore the note, but they sent it burnt and dry, like it was done on purpose. And I know it was intentional, because there's a difference between well-done and spiteful. If this is how you treat paying customers who ask for basic safety and quality, then it speaks volumes about your business practices. How do you expect your business to prosper when you respond to honest feedback with pettiness instead of excellence? I don't owe y'all anything but my truth, and here it is: I won't be ordering again. I hope you figure out how to do better, because this ain't it.

Second experience was much better than the first lol both times was a big order so I get there could potentially be items forgotten. My first order, desserts were missing (flan and tre leches cake). This time, we got both our desserts. I requested for hot sauce and never got any on the first order. This second time, each order received hot sauce. Thank you ! Food - the yellow Spanish rice is amazing! So much flavor. For $10.99, such a good deal for lunch menu price. I got their stewed beef with yellow rice. Added Potato Ball / Bollo de Papa for $2. (Also added Potato Salad / Ensalada de papa $3 , was not great . I don't recommend) lol Overall, this place is decent. I do recommend trying if you're looking for something quick and simple!

The breading was falling apart, and the portion was tiny, in comparinson the amount of sides. The Mofogon was bland and the chicken in the mofogon was weirdly shredden and almost non existent. The white sauce that came with the mofongo was also milky, bland and tasted like it needed to be reduced. The chimi was oversaturated with mayo and ketchup to the point that the bottom half of the bread was soggy. The ZaPote smoothie was ok, but nothing I would order again . The red beans were really the star. They were thick, flavorful and tasted homemade. I really hope the quality of the food improves to match the beans.

L&C may offer a limited menu on the app (we also ordered past lunch time so that may have a player a factor) but the food is amazing! We got some pastillas/empanadas, chicharrón, and Sopa de Pollo (chicken soup)... all 5 stars. The pastillas/empanadas fillings were simple ground beef, some with cheese/con queso, but delicious. Outer shell was crisp but chewy (in a good way) at the same time. Chicharrón could stand up to Yely's (if you know you know). The Sopa de Pollo/Chicken Soup was the highlight. The spices were simple but with a Latin twist. The chicken was tender and the include the Bone for flavor. Completed with noodles and veggies, it's really a treat! The price was very fair for the amount and quality of food.

At…read morethat point I couldn't eat it and took it to go and still haven't eaten because waiting took up all my lunch time. Crazier is that there was no one else dinning but me. A few ppl came in after me but man of man. So I thought let me eat the salad at least to hold me over until I get off at 6:00 p.m. and can eat the food that I bought. And then I take a look at the salad it was one lettuce leaf a cucumber one sliver of carrot. That's not even enough for a bunny. After finally getting home at 6 and heating it up this is my food review. The texture of the rice was a bit hard and clumped together (probably cause it sat for so long in my bag) the beef was really good (I had bistec) the bean was ok, they give you lots of sauce minimum beans. The bistec is really good though.
