    I called in to place my order to-go and she was super helpful! I had a mofongo with the roasted pork. It was delicious!

    This place has completely fallen off. I've been going here for about 11 years or so. Long before…read morethe nightclub discotheque outside. Long before an outside bar. Back when they used to focus only on their food. Last visit, my Cuban sandwich was absolutely gross, the bread was rock hard, the pernil was super dry, and the cheese wasn't even melted. I let that one slide and chalked it up to the kitchen having a bad day. However, yesterday was even more horrendous experience. I've been Puerto Rican my entire life lol. Almost 50 years of existence. I have never in my life encountered a more soggy greasy and squishy Chicharron as I did yesterday. It was an absolute abomination. A disgrace to all of Latin heritage. The little bits of meat were rock hard and burnt to a crisp. What's supposed to be crispy skin, was completely soggy and soft. As if it had never been cooked at all. I have no idea how you could get the meat burnt to a crisp and the skin completely soggy on pork belly. I'm completely appalled the fact that it was even given to me. Whoever was in the kitchen should have known better than to serve that slop. It's an embarrassment to the establishment to even have put that into the window to be given to a customer. There's absolutely no way the person in the kitchen knows what they're doing with Latin food if that was served. It deeply saddened me to say I'll never go back to this place again. Not even for a beer. Seeing as how the prices have skyrocketed and the food quality has gone into the toilet I'll pass. Thank you.(pictures taken before the Chicharron was given to the dogs as a snack, because even bad food doesn't go to waste in my house)

    Solid local Cuban spot that has a cute decor and vibe with indoor and outdoor seating. Authentic…read morefood and spiced to perfection, I highly recommend this spot for a casual meal. Everything on the menu was delicious.

    A friend recommended this spot to us and we would've never known it was there! It's kind of tucked…read moreaway in the shopping center but so so good. We visited on a Saturday around lunchtime and Thursday dinner time, both times we were able to be sat quickly without a wait. I tried the oxtail platter and the garlic shrimp and they were delicious. Oxtail was cooked perfectly and just fell off the bone. They're Dominican so naturally I had to order some mangu; wasn't dry and had good flavor!

    We had very good food here at this relatively new Dominican restaurant -- and that's why we would…read morereturn. However, be forewarned that it is very loud inside. The music was blaring, and people were yelling conversations across the room. Then there were some large parties of folks who were enjoying all talking at once -- and having to be loud enough to be heard over the music and the other patrons. Eeek! We came for lunch. This location used to be another restaurant, but the interior has been totally remodeled. There's a picture of a goat in their logo outside and that looked intriguing. I wasn't sure what the name of the restaurant meant so I turned to google to find out that in the northwest Dominican Republic there is a signature/popular local goat stew. And that's what the name of this place means. And yes, there are quite a few goat dishes on the menu, but many other types of meats, etc. as well. My husband had their stuffed avocado with crab meat to start. The avocado was served warm. Each half had grill marks on it. And it was stuffed with a crab mixture. Two different sauces came with it -- one like remoulade and one spicy. It was very good. He also had a couple meat/beef empanadas. They looked lovely. He said they were excellent. I had a fried pork chop. It came with a choice of two side. I chose moros and sweet plantains. Their moros are pigeon peas in yellow rice. There were two large pork chops in the order. They provided a very sharp knife to cut the chops and I used that as they were a tad tough from the frying. My only wish was that they'd had some sauce to go with the chops. I used some of the remoulade from the appetizer. And took half my meal home. My husband said there are a number of things on the menu he'd like to try in the future. I know we will be returning.
