    Tres Golpes, Mangu Breakfast
    Jennifer S.

    We ordered breakfast from here and the food is amazing. The Dominican fried cheese is yummy!! The only draw back was Uber took awhile to deliver

    Tres golpes con mangu (3 "hits", egg, cheese, salami.  With mashed boiled plantains)
    Lee S.

    Can't believe I never had tres golpes before. It's too damn good. My understanding is the literal meaning is "3 hits", which usually includes egg, salami, and fried cheese, BUT I think it is subject to change or dependent on the place. Then the mangu! My goodness the mangu. Honestly thought I wouldn't like it because it looks and sounds just eh on paper. Boy was I surprised. It tasted like they mashed it with garlic, shallots or something like that. And the red onion on top? Make no mistake, that's not nothing. That's slightly pickled and cuts through the plantain flavor very well. One of the best breakfasts / brunches I ever had in Union City. Definitely recommend, and definitely want to come back.

    Ordered a tres golpes this morning and practically came with no mangu and a tiny egg, after waiting over an hour for the order. Gave no straws for the lemonade. Super disappointed.

    This spot is a little hidden Dominican gem! I have been eating breakfast at Josefa's for years and I absolutely love it. I am truly dedicated to their mangu with the tres golpes (Fried egg, salami and fried cheese). They also have a small buffet with a good variety of food. The prices are reasonable for what you get, and everyone is friendly. I would definitely recommend trying their drinks! My favorite is their morir soñando.

    Can't say this was a pleasant experience. My wife and I had a buffet special and a steak sandwich. They both were i tasteful food. The sandwich was dry, tasteless and cold ( its a hot sandwich on the menu) and it took about 20 min to get to our table. I was planning to get catering here for a part coming up but I'm glad I stopped in first. It was early afternoon, didn't expect this , it wasn't busy.

    This is the churrasco from Chango. The steak was very well made. Not chewy or stringy, just…read moreperfectly cooked. The chimichuri was such a delight for the steak. The rice was also very delicious. Beans were very good and perfect consistency! The fruit juices were very good. My whole party each got a different flavor and we all very much liked them. Staff were friendly and quick to seat us. We unfortunately did have an issue with one of the original meals (the ropa vieja), and the server was quick to switch the meal for another and help us with this. Place is cute but crowded inside, so we opted to sit outside. Very cute seating with shade on the side tables. Prices were moderate for the food, nothing to complain about. Parking in the area is hard. It's an overpopulated town with street parking that is always full. If you do find street parking, walk down the whole block and read signs, they have odd street cleaning hours and signs are typically posted at the beginning of the street so you could miss it. I'd highly recommend this place!

Very knowledgeable with the recommendations. It's a small place with a casual vibe and outdoor seating if you prefer. All of dishes were good. The Cuban sampler was a great appetizer with a variety of foods. The bowl, mofongo and steak were too notch.

It also had yucca fries, rice & beans!! Even typing this I can't believe the deal, lol. The service was great. Our drinks took a while to come out but they recognized this without us saying a word and comped us empanadas for the wait. Love this type of awareness and care for your customers. Matteo was a great & attentive server & last, but not least, the place is super cute.

The empanada sampler was sooo good, they nailed the flavors for sure. The ropa vieja was not as savory as it typically is at other restaurants. The mojitos and wings were decent. This is a great spot for happy hours and small bites. This place is huge, three floors or something. But only the first floor is used for dining, I believe. The others are rented out for events. Even when not having an event, it's a missed opportunity to not utilize the other floors.
