The place itself is tucked away into Lakewood and offers a great atmosphere with an indoor/outdoor flow. The ambiance is nice, they have good music playing in the background not too loud and not too quiet. We went in the evening, so all the lights were turned on which made the experience enjoyable. All the food was really flavorful, and they had a ton of options for cocktails. The complimentary sauces are phenomenal and definitely take the dishes to the next level! Unfortunately, we had to wait over an hour for our food to come out and despite being told appetizers would be quick they took awhile. Server was kind and apologetic and explained they had a new training chef although it felt others around us were getting their food. I do wish they would have given us a complimentary appetizer or made one free of charge as the wait total was almost 1.5 hours. Overall, this place is a really great stop and I'm glad to have it nearby. I have heard the service and speed is usually efficient so maybe this was just a one night thing. Definitely stop in as they have a large menu with bold flavor and a great atmosphere.

A very solid fried chicken spot. I ordered the 3pc whole wing with fries. The meal comes with…read morecornbread, cole slaw and a special sauce. Let's start with the chicken. It has a nice outer crunch and is well seasoned but not overwhelming with it. You can see the cracked pepper on the skin. It's juicy and cooked well. I do prefer a more cruncher skin however, but this is preference. Chicken alone is a 9/10. This may be controversial but Cole slaw is FIRE to me lol. I consider myself a slaw connoisseur. I enjoy it with numerous meals and meats. The slaw here is yummy. Nice crunch of cabbage and carrot. Mayo base and the perfect ratio of mayo and cabbage 10/10. Every group has a weak link and that is the fries. They were hard. They are shoestring fries and it can be easy to over cook this style of fry. Next time I will opt for another side option 1/10. The cornbread was ok but flavor wise was different and delicious. When I took a bite of this cornbread, my whole mouth dried. It literally sucked all the moisture from me . However, the flavor is vanilla cake like and just delicious 4/10. I also ordered a beverage called Morir Sonando. This is a Dominican beverage that typically consists of oranges, sugar, milk and ice. A beverage I am a fan of. For those foreign to Morir Sonando, it is very reminiscent of Dairy Queen's orange julius, except way less sweet and less thick. This drink is no short of amazing 10/10. Refreshing. Beef empanadas. Delicious. Get them. Get a side of the sauce 11/10. Lastly, I ordered the tres leches cake (3 milk cake). Perfection at its finest. When you're craving tres leches cake, you want THIS. Upon walking in for pick up, Pica Pollo West was very clean. Which makes my likely hood of returning anywhere higher. The service was average. Nothing worth noting. I will return. I want to try their fish next!

Johnny Mango is a fun neighborhood spot that really takes "World Cafe" seriously. When we came on a…read moreFriday night, it was quite busy and we had to wait to be seated. The menu is vast with a lot of vegetarian options. I would say the items are pretty hit or miss -- I ordered the pad Thai as it was one of the most popular items, but I found it to be pretty dry and bland. My friend ordered the jerk chicken and said it was delicious. My boyfriend got the burrito and said it was very plain and nothing to write home about. I would highly recommend asking the staff what their favorites are, since they are likely to steer you in the right direction. I like that they offer fresh-squeezed juices - they have a juicer at the counter that you can see them use in real time. However the juicer does look kind of dirty... Lastly, when we went, there were only two people in the kitchen and one waitress managing the entire restaurant, which made service a bit slow. Keep that in mind if you're in a time crunch!

This small establishment is conveniently situated along W 117th St and is easy to spot from the street. One day I was in the area and spontaneously decided to try it. The menu consists of many common Dominican dishes, such as mangu and other staples consisting of chicken and beef. The interior has ample seating with booths and tables. Upon walking in I went directly to the counter and placed my to go order, since I was a bit short on time but nonetheless in the mood for some beans and rice. There were 3-4 tables occupied and it seemed steady. I spoke with a young lady who appeared from the back - much to my delight - who took my info and advised me that it would be around 15 minutes. I did in fact get beans and rice but also a side of platanos maduros. After waiting in my vehicle for a bit, I returned to pick up my order. The stewed beans were savory and paired well with the rice. The platanos were excellent and prepared with just the right amount of oil, not overly saturated. You don't have to travel to Santo Domingo or Cotui to get Domincan food, you can go to El Cibao!
