This cozy little spot served up a delicious and authentic Dominican breakfast at a very reasonable price. The ladies at the counter were warm, welcoming, and attentive. A true neighborhood treasure worth discovering.

Did you know that they have the best kind of natural orange juice here?…read more The kind that is made with straight oranges only and a juice squeezer. Pulpy and refreshing quencher of juices that overpowers above any sad tropicana bottled type juice. The OJ here had me so hype-- that I forgot that they had a whole menu up here to order from. The natural juices here are enough and save me a great heat stroke in the middle of B-line. It's summer approval worthy!

From the moment we walked in, we were made to feel right at home. Juana and her son welcomed us so…read morewarmly and quickly got us settled in. The service was attentive from the very beginning, and they immediately took care of us and made the entire experience feel personal and genuine. Once the food came out, every single dish was absolutely delicious. You can truly tell that Juana takes pride in what she does and prepares every meal with care and love for her customers. Everything tasted incredibly fresh, especially the mangu, Cuban sandwich and Rabo - which was amazing! And the desserts were absolutely outstanding -- we left & took home habichuela con dulce and she shared some of her special dessert with us to try and enjoy! My grandson took it lol. It's the perfect ending to a wonderful meal. Her son was also so personable and kind, which made the experience even more memorable for my entire family. It's rare to find a place that combines amazing food with such heartfelt hospitality. We had an amazing time and will absolutely return whenever we're back in the New Jersey area. Thank you, Juana and son, for the incredible food, kindness, and unforgettable experience!

The space is cute and definitely has that Puerto Rican vibe as you see a lot of references to the island. The staff is nice, the service is quick, and the food is good. Another perk is that there is a parking garage right across the street. This came in clutch as I was already dreading the sometimes busy street parking. Something to note: -The Cuban sandwich didn't have any mustard which I found a bit strange, but it was good. Just wasn't a Cuban lol

I recently visited this restaurant for the first time. When we walked in, we were seated quickly,…read morewhich was a great start. There was also a DJ playing and the music was really good, creating a fun and lively atmosphere. One thing to keep in mind is that they do not have a parking lot, so street parking is the only option. The prices are also on the higher side, but I was still open to seeing if the experience would be worth it. We ordered the picadera Dominicana and the waiter asked if we wanted guacamole. At no point did she mention that it would be an extra charge, so we said yes assuming it was part of the dish. We also ordered a passion fruit sangria pitcher, which was delicious and a good size for sharing. The picadera itself was good and we enjoyed the flavors. Unfortunately, the experience changed when the bill came. Since we were splitting the bill, they charged the appetizer as two separate portions, which ended up costing more. On top of that, we were charged $13 for a very small cup of guacamole, which they labeled on the receipt as "decorative guac" (it was presented as a Dominican flag in the middle). For just an appetizer and a pitcher of sangria, our total came out to $70. What really left a bad impression was when the server brought the bill back and pointed out where the tip section was, as if we didn't know how to read or weren't planning to tip. That felt unnecessary and a bit rude. It's unfortunate because the food and atmosphere had potential, and I likely would have given this place a much better rating if the lack of transparency about the guacamole charge and the comment about the tip hadn't happened.

For that price, I expect to receive what's advertised. I called to let them know, and the response I got was just, "sorry about that, I'll let the cook know." No offer to make it right in any way. That kind of response is frustrating, especially when you've paid a premium. Unfortunately, this experience didn't meet expectations at all. I wouldn't order again.
