My friend and I ordered the lunch special that came with a large portion of yellow rice, beans, salad and a ton of meat. He had ribs and I had pulled porks for $13.5 per person. It was a huge portion and took us so long to finish. A great restaurant to order takeouts. Also if you pay cash they have a small discount. read more

Dominican Restaurant - Roast Pork Lunch Special - Dominican Near Me - Uniondale, New York

The chicken chicharrones were all back bone and the flavor was off as if they reheat it from previous day. I threw the out, the pork chicharrones were ok, cold but ok. The lady at the counter was not very nice, she care more about her phone. read more

It's been a long time since I been here from moving upstate. This place is the top Dominican restaurant in all of New York in my opinion. The lunch special as you can see is so full they have to wrap it up in plastic wrap to keep its goodness safe and sound till you get a chance to eat it. If you don't want salad they give you extra maduros. The meat is so flavorful it's insane. The black rice is delicious and cooked to perfection. It's worth coming out to Long Island just to swing by here and get delicious genuine Dominican food. Service is super fast and polite. They take great pride in their service and quality. The parking lot is super small and people are coming and going. This place gets jammed up during dinner time so come early. read more

What else could you ask for. read more

The Dominican Restaurant is my family's go-to spot for Dominican food. Tonight we ordered skirt steak, oxtail stew and shrimp in garlic sauce (all with yellow rice), a side or tostones and a side of sweet plantains. My son ordered his steak medium rare but it more on the rare side. When I alerted the waitress, she quickly took it in the kitchen and within 5 mins, his steak was returned and I had a happier kid. Besides that little hiccup, everything was wonderful and delicious. Wishing the Dominican Restaurant continued success!! read more

muchas veces he comprado comida para mis eventos en este restaurante de Uniondale NY , la verdad siempre había quedado satisfecha , pero ayer compré una bandeja de pollo frito y un arroz , el pollo en realidad era puro hueso envuelto en harina , me hicieron quedar mal con las personas que llegaron a mi reunión .. . hablé con el manager y su solución fue trae el pollo y te doy otra cosa ... no entendió mi punto .. la verdad q me quedo casi todo el pollo y me tocó q resolver con otra comida en lugar del pollo .. señores no les recomiendo que compren pollo frito en este restaurante dominicano en Uniondale . read more

This is my favorite spot. It was recently renovated. I've been coming here for years. The food is good. You walk in and can sit anywhere you want. They also have a take out window where you can pick what you want and take it to go. I like to sit down and eat though. The service is quick. I always order the baked chicken and yellow rice. The meal comes with beans and a salad. I also order sweet plantains. Once you're done, the server brings you your check and you pay up front at the register. The food is affordable. I really like this restaurant. read more

A friend told me about this restaurant since I was in the mood for Spanish food. The decor was very nice and modern. I ordered fried chicken chunks with rice and beans. I was extremely hungry when I ordered and hoped that the food was good when it arrived. The waitress was very nice and patient. My food was brought out to me and it looked great. The chicken was well seasoned and tasted delicious. I was pleased with my meal and I'm glad that we decided to visit this restaurant. read more

Haven't been here in a while and it was great! The waitress got everything correct and the food was delish for 4 adults and 4 kids. There isn't a kids menu, but they made what my son wanted which was 2 fried eggs over white rice. The older kids shared an order of chicharron de cerdo with white rice and habichuelas (red beans). We've never had sangria from here but glad we got the pitcher. Red sangria was yummy! I normally would get the rabo guisado (oxtail stew) or chicharron de cerdo (fried pork chunks), but had my god son and younger son with me who wanted steak so for the first time ordered the skirt steak cooked medium and was not disappointed. Mondongo (tripe) soup - on point Fried eggs Pernil - flavorful; cuerro was too chewy wish it was crunchy instead Tostones FYI 15% tip is automatically added to all checks read more

DO NOT EAT HERE IF YOU ARE AFRICAN AMERICAN. I went there today to purchase lunch. as soon as I walked in all eyes were on me, and I asked the Spanish woman who was serving the food if there was a lunch special and she looked at me and rolled her eyes and walked away and serviced a Spanish man next to me in line. so I walked out! I will never go back again ! read more

I just have to say how good the food is here. I usually come here if I want to grab lunch and go or sometimes for dinner. The grilled chicken is so good. I order yellow rice and beans with a side of avocado. Sometimes I get the yuca (cassava) and banana with the onions. They just never disappoint me. I've have dined in here. They serve big plates of everything so there is plenty of food to take home. People are always nice and helpful. read more

Stopped in for lunch based on other yelp reviews as I was in the neighborhood. Very spacious and clean seating areas. Staff behind the lunch buffet counter did not greet me but when I walked up I asked if I ordered there to sit down and eat. Staff was quickly responsive and directed me to sit where I like as a waitress would be with me soon. A very pleasant waitress attended to my drink and food order. She was attentive to me needing extra napkins and checking in to see how my meal was after I began eating. Ordered the chicken stew lunch special. The chicken had really good seasoning. The beans too. The rice didn't taste as fresh nor did the sweet plantains (reason for 4 stars). But the amount of food was plenty. The tamarind juice brought me back to my childhood in DR. Will be visiting again. Enjoyed my dining experience. read more

I've known about this restaurant for some years now, I've heard good things about it and I've been real busy to take time to go but today was the day and it was great! The food, the service and the place as a whole was really nice. Family portion for sure! The drinks are yummy and the food very fresh. First time I see a restaurant have a deli/restaurant view without it looking very out of place. They did a good job. I recommend to take some time and eat here. read more

I haven't been here in so long and I haven't had authentic Dominican food since I moved. But this place hit the spot. We ordered a bunch of different meals online to pick up and take back home. The food... So good. I ordered the steak with onions and peppers. The steak was tender and no rough chewy pieces and the peppers and onions added an additional layer of flavor. Also the amount of food that you get is great, plenty for leftovers! read more

Although I wrote my initial review of the Dominican Restaurant in 2011, I haven't been there since 2009. It's now 2021. My daughter and son-in-law ordered a feast on our recent visit when they had a family gathering. The food was OUTSTANDING. We ate seafood paella, mofungo with a delicious sauce (which I had never eaten before), plantains, rice, beans, salad, and baked chicken. Everything had such amazing flavor. The paella was out of this world... as was everything, frankly. The only problem was that my stomach filled up LONG BEFORE I was ready to stop eating. It was that kind of delicious. What it meant was that I couldn't wait for dinner the following evening because that meant LEFTOVERS, and the food tasted just as good the second time. This was a MAJOR TREAT, and this restaurant knows what it's doing. The ONLY thing I'd change for the future is not waiting so many years till our next meal from here. This was SENSATIONAL !!! read more

Dominican Restaurant - A feast of seafood paella, plantains, chicken, rice, beans, mofungo, sauce for the mofungo, and salad - Dominican Near Me - Uniondale, New York

The portions are generous! I love their chicharron. However, the food does spoil really quick. I ordered here 5 times the last 2 months and each time our food spoiled within the day, even in the refrigerator. I thought it was an isolated incident but when it kept happening, it was clear to me that it wasn't, which is a shame. They have online ordering for pickup and delivery in the local area, and they do offer discounts online time to time. Parking is tight and limited. And not it is not handicap accessible, there are stairs to walk up, no ramps available. read more

Great food, generous portions, attentive staff. My only reservation is that they include the gratuity on the bill and it is taxed. As far as I am aware, this is not a legal practice. read more

There's a reason why I gave the food 4 stars, but the service is 2.. nice place to dine. But, here's my problem, and this is not the first time. I'm a regular with this place. If you call in an order before you come, they know who's calling by name. I always get the same churrasco solo steak at $21.50, depending on who you talk to on the phone, THE PRICE WOULD CHANGE EVERY NOW AND THEN. Today it was $34.00. Now, last year we had the same problem about this place changing prices, and today, which just happens to be a Saturday, we're at a crossroads once again. A young guy in there acting as a manager name Ramiro didn't think I had a receipt of how much they always charge me since last year, but I screen shot a receipt from February, and didn't have a problem with this price until now... But since he told me to bring a receipt not knowing I had one, I came there with the receipt, and now that he looked it over and saw that it was from February, now he says the prices has changed since then... Mind you, just a month ago I paid 21.50, I didn't keep the receipt since then, because I always got it for that price. But now the prices went up a whole $12.50 to $34 dollars, and this is just for the steak, not including the meal w/rice etc... This place is a rip-off, and there are other places that will accept your hard earned money for great food. You don't pick and choose how much you wanna charge regular customers who patronize in your establishment and know the customers by phone numbers to jack up the price on the weekend. This would've definitely been $21.50 during the week when you have just opened for business... On that note, I will not give a red cent to this establishment anymore and will take my money elsewhere... Beware read more

Best Dominican food in the area. Small restaurant, family style and prices are very reasonable with plentiful servings. We were pleasantly surprised that they do not skimp out on the servings like many places in the area due to higher food costs. Server was very attentive and accommodating for our party of six. We had red snapper, oxtail, shrimp and all the typical sides of salad, rice, beans, tostones, maduros. Beers are ice cold. Will be going back soon! read more

Let's start with the parking situation. It's a mess , the end .. The food is always good . The packed house always comes from the line to order food to go not really the Dining flow . I wish the booths were not so close to the to go line only bc ppl are staring or the conversation is super loud OR someone is flicking their hair . Ugh Other than that , the portion sizes are good and it's reasonably priced . read more

Dominican Restaurant - They already add Gratuity . Check ur bill that u don't add extra - Dominican Near Me - Uniondale, New York

PLEASE CHECK YOUR BILL WHEN DINING IN AT THIS RESTAURANT!!!! My fiancé and I enjoy coming to this restaurant from time to time. The food is always good and I find that the service is prompt. The reason for me giving it three stars as opposed to five is for the following three reasons: #1 - It's not until recently we noticed that the restaurant automatically charges a gratuity when you dine in. No matter how small or large your party may be, the gratuity is automatically added. If you don't pay close attention to your bill, you will end up tipping your server twice. I don't like this idea because it feels very deceptive to me. #2 - this place also has a take out line near the dining area. So it can get rather noisy if you are sitting at one of the booths near that line. This is not the type of place where you go for a date night or a girl's night. #3- The parking situation at this restaurant is horrible. There is a small lot in the back, but it aways seems to be packed. So if you are planning on coming here, it's best to park on one of the residential streets nearby. On a side note, this restaurant is cold during the winter time. So you may need to keep your jacket on when eating your dinner. This place is good if you want a solid meal at a good price. Don't expect much of an ambiance or fancy dining experience. read more

Do not eat here if you are or African American, a woman, LGBT+, LGBT friendly or care about respectful service and human dignity. I have been a longtime customer there but on recent visits two male staff have made racist and homophobic comments about me and my friends and made a sexiest comment about my female friend's rear end. The remarks were made in Spanish but -- surprise -- we are native speakers and heard every word! I spoke about this rude, disrespectful treatment with the woman at the register, but she shrugged it off. ZERO STARS read more

I've been eating here for more than 25 years. The food is delicious, fresh, and savory. The hardest part is is choosing among your favorites. You can try a new dish. You won't be disappointed.

My experience with this restaurant was surprisingly great! The service, food and price point was awesomeness. I initially ordered a small chicken soup since I had eaten a couple hours prior to my arrival, but my family decided to meet here and have dinner, (so impromptu) . My parents both ordered dinners (mom: Half chicken & dad: oxtails both came with salad, rice & beans)...the presentation and quantity were jaw dropping, as I had no idea the plates would arrive so plentiful. I will return and bring my appetite next time! read more

My favorite Dominican restaurant for years!!! But I was kind of turned off when I asked how much a large chicken soup was the lady told me 11.25 which to me was crazy because I never paid that much. When I got to the register and the cashier ring me up she charges me 8.50. So they lady start laughing and talking in Spanish knowing damn well she was wrong for trying to charge me that much for a soup. JUST GREEDY!! read more

Been here more times than I can count, just never got the chance to write a review but here goes.... -FOOD: If you're looking for good Dominican food, you won't be disappointed. Everything I've gotten here is really good from the pernil to the shrimp. I love their Sancocho! -SERVICE: Nothing special. They get the job done. They're very nice though and frankly that's good enough for me. Make sure if you're dining in you look at your check. THEY ADD GRATUITY TO THE CHECK FOR DINING IN REGARDLESS OF THE AMOUNT OF PEOPLE. (which kind of pisses me off, but whatever!) AMBIENCE: Again, nothing special. You will be comfortable but it's nothing fancy. It's just a good place to get good food. PRICES: The prices are pretty reasonable. You'll definitely get a lot for your money. Again, THEY ADD GRATUITY TO THE CHECK FOR DINING IN REGARDLESS OF THE AMOUNT OF PEOPLE AND THEY ALSO CHARGE $1 - $2 EXTRA PER DISH FOR DINING IN. (SEE PIC) If you're hungry and in the neighborhood give them a try. read more
