    Corn pudding (basically)
    Nikki W.

    As a food enthusiast and Dominican myself, I couldn't resist the hype that a viral video threw at this restaurant. My family and I went to check it out and see how authentic it was to our roots and such... I even called my cousin up and told him I was heading to the spot in which he replied "it used to be very popping and delicious but lately it's not the best Dominican food around anymore." I didn't heed his warning and decided I would make my own judgment on such things. Upon entering, it was a very spacious, yet empty, restaurant and we were greeted quite nicely. The young lady took our order by memory (not fond of this method) and we ordered 3 chimis, mangu with pork, two sides of fries, two empanadas and a mamey shake (my grandmother's specialty). We received our empanadas and the deep fried dough was delicious. The inside was quite good as it had bits of fried cheese and salami but it lacked in the sense that it was too dry. I enjoyed it regardless and the ketchup/mayo sauce mix was great (something I do at home too). Well, the chimis came out and the patty was dry (at least for my taste) but the buns were delicious!!!! My mom said "just like in DR!" WELL... The disappointment that happened was that the young lady left her shift early and forgot about our fries, and we were done and they hadn't come out. My mother also mentioned that the pork had too much oregano (not a traditional Dominican seasoning) and the mangu wasn't the best she's had. Pork was burnt to bits unfortunately. Overall the flavors weren't true Dominican but more so a fusion of Colombian x Dominican. The other lady gave us a complimentary desert on the house because we did not receive our fries. Customer service is excellent! But the food is more on the 3 star (perhaps we were too picky since this restaurant supposedly is 100% D.R.) Empanadas were good but you can find great ones for half the price anywhere else in Miami!

    Carne de molida - whole sweet plantain filled with cheese and beef!
    Fatima T.

    What a first culinary experience in Florida and what a time to be alive!!! Lol The owner of this Cuban restaurant, who is my friend's uncle, asked me what I like. I said plaintains and meat. So he recommended the exquisite ´carne Molida' (Whole sweet plantain " boat " with ground beef) and oh boy it did not disappoint. This is a little hidden gem! The restaurant is pristine (including the restrooms) and the staff is extremely nice. Make sure you also try their passion fruit pinch--totally worth it!!!

    Chimi with fried cheese
    Gloria A.

    Was in the mood for a chimi and my BF suggested we come here. I'd been here I once before and wasn't too impressed but I decided to give it another shot. The place was pretty empty when we got there. The waitress cane over with menus and took our drink orders, she came back with the sodas and we placed our food order. I got the chimi with fried cheese. I understand we have to wait since it's made to order so I didn't mind. When the chimi came out it was nice and hot! The bread was a little over toasted for my taste as when I smooshed it down to take a bite it started falling apart. The chimi was delicious I will give them that, but by the end I was eat meat and cheese cause the bread just kept crumbling apart. We ordered a morir soñiando and a majarete to go and proceeded to wait over 15 minutes for the majarete. Had my bf not asked if they had run out we would have sat there longer. The waitress said she was waiting for us to ask for the check to bring it out which made no sense to me since she brought the morir soñiando, but ok. Overall I wasn't impressed and won't be in a rush to come back...

    Chimi Patron!
    Melissa R.

    Last night (or should I say this morning), my friends and I were looking for restaurant that was open late (it was almost 5 am). I checked on Yelp and found this place! I didn't even know there was a Dominican place so close to home. I was in heaven. We walked in at 4:45 am and were going to take our food to go because they were closing soon and we didn't want to be "those people" but the staff encouraged us to stay. The service was excellent and we didn't get any attitude that you'd expect to find from a place about to close. I ordered the Chimi Patron because I LOVE toston burgers and I couldn't be happier. I asked if I could substitute the beef for chicken and they were able to accommodate. Everyone was happy with their orders and a man who might have been the manager or owner checked to see if everything was ok. All in all, this is exactly what Miami Lakes/Hialeah was missing. I had prayed that a Dominican Food truck would appear but this is so much better. Welcome to the neighborhood!

    Everything you get here is delicious. I have been here multiple times and the food always hits the spot. The staff is friendly and it has a fun atmosphere.

    I really wanted to love Yarumba Restaurant & Lounge because the atmosphere is actually very nice…read more It's a great place to hang out with friends, enjoy a few drinks, and relax. Unfortunately, the service has been a huge disappointment the last two times I've visited. As you can see from my photo, the restaurant wasn't busy at all, so there really wasn't a reason for the delays. We sat at our table waiting for someone to take our order while our waitress continued helping other tables and never came to ours. It wasn't until I asked for our server that she finally came over to take our order. After that, we waited nearly 40 minutes for our food, and when it finally arrived, most of it was only semi-warm. The only dish that came out fresh and hot was the steak tostones, which were delicious. Everything else, including the other entrées and sides, was lukewarm and honestly disappointing. What makes this even more frustrating is that this wasn't my first experience like this. I had previously visited with a friend and received the same poor service and semi-cold food. I decided to give Yarumba another chance by coming back with my daughter, hoping the first visit had just been an off day. Sadly, nothing had changed. It seems like the staff spends more time talking amongst themselves than checking on customers or making sure food is coming out promptly. Good food and a fun atmosphere can only make up for so much when the service consistently falls short. At this point, I don't see myself coming back for dinner. If I do return, it would only be to sit at the bar for drinks. I truly hope management addresses these issues because the restaurant has a lot of potential.

As soon as you walk in bachata is playing in the background and you are greeted with a warm welcome. I went with my mom who is wheelchair bound and every single person from the customers to the employees offered to help move chairs around and tables so she would be comfortable. Everyone was so pleasant and nice. I would come back alone just for the hospitality. If you're expecting constant check in from the waitress- this is not the place. If you want their attention you call them and they will come to you. They have a food bar where you can go and order the food or sit down and they take your order. The manager also goes around asking the tables if they need anything and engages with the customers. Even the cook knows the regulars as he came out and greeted the customers sitting by the bar. The food was absolutely delicious. We started with the picadera. It's about $25 but it's enough to fill 5 people as an appetizer. It has everything from tostones to different meats. We then ordered a morir sonando and my day was made! A true Dominican staple. And of course we couldn't leave without ordering Los tres Golpes. My boyfriend had never had Dominican food and he absolutely loved it. This is one of the best authentic Dominican restaurants in South Florida.

Siempre le he tenido cariño a este sitio y por eso me duele aún más tener que escribir esta reseña. Lamentablemente, la experiencia fue muy desagradable debido al trato de una mesera de origen Venezolana con pelo rubio. Se negó a atender a una persona en mi mesa, argumentando que los de mi mesa solo van a bailar y no a consumir. La actitud de ella demuestra una falta total de ética y capacitación en servicio al cliente. Negar servicio basándose en suposiciones personales es inaceptable. Me sorprendió muchísimo ese comentario, ya que en ningún momento se me ha informado que sea obligatorio consumir para poder disfrutar del ambiente y la música aparte de que siempre consumismo pero quisas no lo que ella pretende que se consuma. Su actitud fue grosera, poco profesional y muy inapropiada y aparte con tanta seriedad y muy poco amigable para ese tipo de trabajo, Como cliente que ha apoyado este lugar por años, no considero correcto que se hagan comentarios personales ni que se niegue servicio basado en percepciones. Todos merecemos respeto y un trato digno. Espero que la administración tome en cuenta esta situación y revise este tipo de comportamientos, ya que afectan la reputación del establecimiento y la experiencia de quienes hemos sido clientes fieles por tanto tiempo.
