This place is a hidden gem So my husband I LOVE Dominican food, we used to drive to other towns…read morebut now we don't have too! The food here is 5/5, not to mention the rotating menu and the, the empanadas, tres leches cakes, and their soups. They make soups in Thursdays a d Sundays, but they usually have the pernil, like 2 beef dishes and they rotate ribs, chicken, and beef steak. Yuca, white rice, black rice, and the rice and beans are usually there every time I have went. The service is attentive, they ask you what size large or small and they start with the rice, then over to the meats. The restaurant smells so appetizing upon entering. It is newly renovated, clean and organized so you can dine in or take out. The staff is very nice and I have come here about 5 times since they opened.

There are also some sides available. I always got oxtail. It's good, but a bit pricey for the amount of meat you get. Others have ordered the pepper steak before and the portions for that are great. The rice is definitely on the salty side, but is good overall. I do appreciate that the lady working there is always generous with pouring extra sauce on our rice as well. We also tried the tres leches during our last visit and would get it again. It had the perfect texture and sweetness.

Let me share my last night experience, arrived at restaurant at 8:53 pm (restaurant closes at 10pm), was not crowded probably 4 tables on the outside patio, where they were showing a World Cup game. We got seated quickly and put the drinks order in right away, and then was when everything went south, in not more than a minute the server came to take our order, we ask for a couple more minutes as we just got the menu and were looking at it, then right behind the table 3 servers start to talk bad about us and saying things like they better hurry up, we need to go home to watch the game, tell them that we only have quick bites or else we not going home tonight ( all in Spanish but we DO understand the language) . Will never go back to this place or recommend it. It's a shame places like this ruin the reputation of great Portuguese restaurants. Also menu is extremely overpriced compared to other Portuguese restaurants. Stay away..

This restaurant was rated well and I thought what could go wrong? Although, service was fine there is a language barrier so I don't know what the dip with the chips was and it's definitely not the usual salsa. I had a salad delivered and it's a very simple salad with French dressing. I wish they jazzed it up with a poblano dressing or something in theme. My tostadas came with another bowl and I don't know what it was. My tostadas were bland and dry then suddenly a small amount of sauce appeared on the right side of my tostada. I wish it was on the whole tostada to take away the dryness. The dish came with potatoes which tasted fine but were so greasy. My husband ordered the trio fajita and wasn't impressed. He said his meal was tasteless and overall we weren't impressed. Unfortunately, we won't be going back.

We started with the ensalada de mariscos, and it was my favorite dish! It was OUTSTANDING, and packed with flavor. For dinner we had the vegetarian paella for one that we added shrimp to, the swordfish, and the patatas bravas. The paella is one of the best I ever had! It was perfectly spread and the edges had a slight crisp to it. The shrimp was packed with Portuguese flavor. The swordfish was very good, but on the small side. The patatas bravas was EXCELLENT! For desserts we had the pineapple cake and the chocolate basque cheesecake. The chocolate basque cheesecake stole the show! It was so delicious! The pineapple cake was good, but not something I'd order again. The staff was so warm and welcoming. I highly recommend Lita in Aberdeen!

It is a BYOB but we had a chance to try Spanish wine, a great gift from Mike. My husband had the lobster crepe appetizer and I had the shrimp appetizer, both were very tasty. Hubby ordered the lamb chops for his dinner and I had the beet salad. Not an ordinary beet salad, it had Spanish bacon and duck, both dishes were delicious! We had to finish it off with the homemade flan..so happy we did! My husband wanted a little taste of ice cream and Mike brought out a tasting of 3 kinds of ice cream, strawberry, coffee and some saffron ice cream..I cannot express this enough..if they have the saffron ice cream available..GET IT!! You can thank me later! We'll definitely put this on our list for a good night out! Mike also told us, they have music on Saturday nights and he might be adding some extra special entertainment in the near future!! Thank you for a great dinner and for making us feel so welcome!
