Morir sonando
Kimberly V.

Want some delicious Dominican food? Then you have to try out El Rey II. It's located on city line, Liberty Ave. I came here after a nail salon date with my friend and the food was delicious!! I came here several times for take out but this was my first dinning in experience. I got the churrasco steak with a side of salad and white rice and beans. My daughter got an order of sweet plantains and my friend got a Pernil mofongo with rice and beans as a side. We all enjoyed our meal. The steak was very flavorful and tender- so delicious!! The plantains were cooked to perfection and the mofongo made my friend want to move to DR! She also got a morir sonando which she loved! The service was pretty good. I didn't catch the servers name as she didn't introduce herself but she was nice and attentive to our table. It was loud inside as others around us were drinking and hanging out. We didn't mind though, we were happy they were enjoying their lives. They used to have a outdoor dinning area but I noticed they got rid of it. Parking in the area is pretty terrible so I'm assuming that may have had something to do with it. I would come and dine in once again.

Seafood stuff flounder

My wife and I have eaten here for many years now. Best grilled salmon and skirt steak we have eaten and not over priced the owners and staff are very friendly always attentive of customers need. We want to especially thank Donna who is our regular server she goes above and beyond not only for us but to all the customers she serves. And she also makes the best apple martini.

Fried porkchops (Chuleta frrita) was perfectly seasoned and   cooked .Saute beef liver , smothered in onion. Yuca and fried plantain .

Fried porkchops were perfectly cook. DELICIOUS. My wife had beef liver smothered with onions. Rice and beans , fried yuce and plantain were all cooked and prepared with passion. Great delivery arrived fresh and hot.

My fried snapper

I heard about the food so I decided to do some take out. It's your typical Dominican restaurant when you walk in. Screen shows you the rice, beans, meats. However they have a fully loaded menu (tacos, seafood, etc) you'll have to order that towards the register because there made fresh for you. I noticed if you dine in you'll be able to order alcohol beverages which is super cool. I will definitely come back and sit in to try their drinks. My dad liked the fried pork rice and beans that I got him. I ordered a fried snapper and I got this big platter with a nice size fish. I was impressed by the presentation. I want to try their deserts next time as well. For my two meals of friends pork, rice, beans and my single fried snapper my bill came up to $49 which is not bad at all.

I go there at least once a week I am addicted to their Dominican breakfast. And if I get out of work late this is my go to dinner spot.

Good food, fast service and cheap. If you don't speak Spanish, you might have to repeat your order a few times. No complaints here!

Bday Tings! Kicking…read moreoff my bday celebrations here on a Thursday which is Ladies Night. 10 out of 10!!!! The service, the food, the drinks & the vibes. Happy Hour is until 8pm. Half off select cocktails and appetizers. $7 margaritas, martinis and mojitos all night for Ladies Night. My friends and I had Churrasco skewers, truffle waffle fries, chicken quesadillas, Churrasco quesadillas, loaded waffle fries with shrimp and sweet chili wings. Everything was good! Nothing salty, mushy or lacking flavor. Hookah is $40, cash only and $25 for a refill. The hookah was smooth and long lasting. We really had a great time here. I'll definitely be back over the summer!

Love! I came here…read morewith one of my close girlfriends and have to say it did not disappoint! I was not sure really what to expect. I was curious if this place was a restaurant, a bar, or a lounge. I would say this place is definitely a lounge. The vibe was great, very chill and unpretentious. The drinks were on point and the food was delicious! Their menu is more finger foods and decent bites if you plan to drink. I would like to see 1 or 2 more food menu items added but everything we had was very very good. We had the sampler and it was perfect for us. The DJ was everything! The music was so good. Old school early 2000's hip hop and r&b. But I hear on any given night, the music goes to the vibe of the crowd. The service was fantastic. We had everything we needed and the wait staff was attentive. I will absolutely be coming back here! They have great happy hour during the weekdays and a brunch I want to check out. 10/10 so far.

Came here with the family for a very untraditional Easter dinner…read more The place has a cool decor with the front half for the Chinese food and the back half for the Hibachi. We went with the Chinese. I started with a Pina Colada a drink I only get in Chinese Restaurants for some reason. It was good. A bit Pineapple heavy. We then ordered a bunch of dishes to split as there was 7 of us. We got Boneless Spareribs which were really good. Smaller than normal and very tender with a great sweet glaze. Mussels with Black Bean Sauce which was my favorite dish. Giant but still tender mussels in an outstanding black bean sauce. One of the best black bean sauces Ive had in a long time. Grand Marnier Shrimp which were god but not as good as the long lamented China Chalet in Lower Manhatttan version. Still solid and a dish you dont see much anymore so everyone was happy. General Tsos Chicken was very good. Not much spice but the chicken was very high quality,not spongy at all. Tangerine Beef was another solid entree. Beef was coated in a light breading and sauce was good if a bit sweet. Roast Pork Fried Rice very good quality. Not that cheap yellow style. Staff was very friendly and efficient. The people having Hibachi were having a great time. All and all a very nice change of pace from the usual Italian food which we normally get on Easter.

I am in town and my hotel recommended Danny's for Chinese food. I ordered steamed dumplings and…read morethey were so thick and doughy and inside was like brown sauce with the meat.... Not good eats The Szechuan shrimp was like rubber. The shrimps were drowning in a red sauce and there was no vegetables included. The eggroll was like damp cardboard . Not crispy and fresh. I do not recommend this place!

The service was good "quick" as usual. We were met as we entered the restaurant by a female service however she had a mouth full of food. We ordered the Braised Short Rib and the Chicken Tagine. We received our food within just a few minutes no more than 7-10 minutes. Although there was steam coming off of the couscous the chicken was ice cold. It was obvious that my food had been simply thrown into a microwave. The couscous although hot it was overcooked and mushy. The chicken was warm on the bottom but extremely cold as I cut into it. The Short Rib dish had the same problem. The pasta was steamy hot but the rib was cold. I really don't have a problem eating cold beef, but I can't eat cold chicken. I would have sent my dish back however it was obvious that they weren't going to make a new dish I felt they would have just nuked it longer. If I wanted nuked food I could have picked up a frozen dinner at the grocery store. Go for the wine, not the food.
