One of the best Dominican restaurants I've been too. There is a few in Boston that is good but this…read moreright here, I might have to say it's better lol on our way back from New York , we stopped by here for lunch. They have their own parking lot in the back. It's a hot bar but also a whole restaurant lol the interior is so nice that take out is a very hard option to do because you want to dine in lol For two large entrees and a large spaghetti, it came out to be $42. This also includes a drink! I got the stewed chicken, stewed goat, and spaghetti. If you never had Dominican spaghetti before, please do try! It's super flavorful, a little sweet, and a little salty. It's so good. Stewed chicken was good but not the best. What one lacks, the other compliments. The rice here is so moist and fluffy. Along with the sides they offer. I opted for macaroni salad. Highly recommended. The stewed goat was a little salty but that's up my alley lol I can see it being a little issue for some but I love salty food lol Very disappointed they didn't have oxtails though. It was only 2pm and they were out already. Overall, let's just say, I wish this place was closer to home!!

We stopped into Cocina Sabrosa for the RI Food Fights' "Taco Mania!" event…read more The dining room itself is brightly lit, giving off a distinct cafeteria-like feel--it's clean and functional, but not particularly cozy. You place your order at the counter, and the food is brought out to your table. The service was relaxed and generally nothing special, just the standard efficient delivery you'd expect from a counter-service spot. We tried the Carne Asada Tacos -- decent flavor, though not quite standout, and the lime wedges served with them seemed a bit past their prime. ​We also tried the Cubano sandwich. Visually, it was great: nicely pressed, generously stuffed, and made with an authentic type of Cuban bread. Unfortunately, the flavor was a letdown. It was a bit flat and lacked the punchy, vibrant, savory, and tangy notes you look for in a classic Cubano. Overall, Cocina Sabrosa was okay -- solid but not spectacular. Worth a try if you're nearby, but probably wouldn't go out of the way for it.

It was a slow time of day in the late afternoon close to evening on a Sunday. It was not packed at all. The menu's are hard to read printed on black background and dim lighting. The food was good I give it down but. Knocked stars off for the drinks. Out of 4 different cocktails we tried some tasted watered down or had a bad after taste and one like red koolaid and two were good. It depends what you get. Service was ok staff were friendly.

Take me back to Providence, Rhode Island. This restaurant just made its way to my Top 10 favorite…read morerestaurants and yes, I will travel 3000 miles for their food! We were hungry then found this place while we were looking for a place to eat. Totally unplanned, just wanted to get a bite to eat. This restaurant is located on Broad St (busy street) next to McDonald's, Dunkin Donuts, and other places to eat. I'm so glad we walked into this establishment. My boyfriend and his younger brothers are Puerto Rican. They asked me if I've ever tried Mofongo. I've always wanted to try it, so I ordered the Mofongo with chicharron. Best decision ever. What it is, is mushed up plaintains mixed with Pernil (Puerto Rican slow roasted pork). Then topped off with chicharrones. It also came with a red sauce (not spicy) and a white sauce. It was so good: The ladies working there at the time were very friendly too. There is a bathroom inside for customers only and a lot of tables to sit. You just sit yourself. Can't wait to come back to Providence just for this restaurant. I'm hooked!

As I was waiting for my food to be packaged the kitchen staff was still filling the hot trays out front with more hot fresh food and it was already like 6pm.

There is no menu so you don't know what the bill will be until you get to the register. Communication was definitely an issue since they do not speak much, if any, English. I ordered a plate that incorporated almost everything that they had in the buffet...beef, goat, chicken, and things I don't even know what it was (one of each)? The food was good and I think the chicken wings were probably the best tasting item in the buffet. The meat they use isn't the best quality, but they do a great job with it. My plate was $16.00 The bartender did not know any English so she handed her phone over so we could communicate. She said the best drink she makes is a margarita so I was in and it did not disappoint. $15.00 Overall, I probably wouldn't go back, but I'm glad I had the experience. Everyone was nice and tried the best they could to accommodate me.

When I first drove by it I was like, wow, that place looks like it would have good food but it looked a bit sketchy. I can't imagine that many of my suburban neighbors/friends would even imagine eating here. I quickly pulled over and searched Yelp and read the 3 reviews and jumped out of my car. I can hardly speak Spanish but a young very nice boy translated to possibly his mom for me. Also, a man came in to get some food, possibly the dad and he was so patient and helpful explaining every dish. Before long I was headed out the door with a large amount of food and a bottle of water for 9 bucks! I tipped her $4 because I just knew the food would be kill and the customer service was outstanding. Try finding all of the above in an American run restaurant... not happening. They were closing in 15 minutes so there wasn't a huge assortment of items (which is why I am going back today, and with no other reason) but I was given 4 different chicken and pork items as well as rice and great beans. I just finished the rest for lunch and it was so good. I would go there for sure at least once a week if I lived closeby. If you want to impress someone who would never even consider getting out of the car on a street like this, grab some take out and bring it home to them. Trust me, they will be thanking you ten fold. Thank you, thank you, thank you to this hard working kind family for sharing your gift of amazing food preparation with all... Peace.
