Here's a place that's been here forever & recently I started to come back! Presidente or Dominican sodas are a good start great beer, decent sodas. Main dish I had the Pechuga quisqueya this is chicken, great tasting sauce I had it with tostones very good comes w a small side salad, very tasty dressing. Hubby had the Chicharron de pollo , also very good comes with white rice & beans. On the to go I like getting the Yuca empanadas, great meat, good chicken & cheese. Pastelitos are good as well both meat & chicken, they are fried to order & tend to be on the greasy side. Food on the go, Roasted chicken with white rice, salad, beans & tostones good size meal, very good chicken & rice w the beans, good salad & tostones. The latest visit gave the Sancocho a try with white rice, great soup hits the spot on those colder days. Also tried the Pollo al ajillo comes w rice & salad good as well. Small location, decent music playing this place can remind u of any random place in walk into in DR. Good service, decent prices for the amount of food they give u, service has always been good. La comida es muy buena, happy that I rediscovered this place & will for sure continue to visit from time to time. read more

Update 9/5/23 I'm still obsessed with the Dominican food here hands down ! It's the BEST Dominican restaurant I've ate at in NYC. The ambiance is very chill and inviting. I love the complimentary salad they give at the beginning because the dressing is completely mouth watering ! The fried chicken chunks were perfectly crunchy and delicious. I really enjoyed eating the white rice with the red beans. I feel like I could drink the broth of the beans it was so good !!!!! I also loved the perfectly cooked tostones with garlic sauce. I do wish the garlic sauce had a stronger KICK to it but regardless I can't wait to come back and eat here again ! read more

My family and I usually love ordering the food from this place ever so often, so to have experience this was new. However, the service was a bit dramatic. After explaining we found a caterpillar in the food (and a butt end in another plate), they actually said they would send back the delivery man to get the 1/2-3/4th left of food so we can get a refund as we were already in the middle of eating it all obviously.. it was beyond me. Pedí 80 $ + propina de comida. Pidieron un reembolso y pidieron que les devolvieran la comida. Terrible servicio al cliente. Hay una oruga en la ensalada. read more

Quisqueya Restaurant - Salad and mofongo - Dominican Near Me - Corona, New York

Absolutely delicious I taste like eating in Dominican Republic. Will go back I order food almost everyday for my coworkers and I.

Super small restaurant and service isn't the best BUT the food makes up for everything. This is one of my favorite places to get authentic Dominican food in Queens. Whether you pick it up or dine in the flavors are amazing. My favorite dish on their menu is the bistec encebollado (Steak & onions) with rice and a side of maduros (sweet plaintain). I was also very impressed with their sancocho since I'm not a huge soup fan. I've had their steak sandwich as well which is huge and very filling. My sister loves getting the chicarrón de pollo - literally melts in your mouth. Get the passion fruit juice!! You won't regret it. You also can't beat the prices. read more

I sat down w a friend to eat there yesterday 04/11/22 we made two orders one of oxtails w moro and the other of half a chicken w rice and beans. And two glasses of their very cheap wine. When the bill came it was $60!! When I looked at what we were charged they charged us $4 extra per meal and $2 more for each glass of wine! Also I believe extra on the tax. The waitress said they haven't updated their menu. Which as been the case for more than 6 months! I will never ever step foot in there again! read more

Just felt like a walk from Forest Hills to Jamaica, and I found myself on Roosevelt Avenue traversing into the high numbered streets. I immediately stopped in to this cute exposed brick cafe/restaurant to grab some good eats. My belly had decided on sandwich Cubano with thinly sliced meats, mayo, pickles in a yummy bread. I would definitely come back again. I must say that their tamarind juice is rad! Being an authentic Latin American cuisine restaurant, we had to order in Spanish, which was not a problem. :) It was a quite a nice time here. read more

I tried this place thinking it couldn't be so bad, since they had an ok rating. The food was awful!!!! Lunch with beef stew, rice, and beans had a funny after taste. Mofongo was absolutely old and microwaved. Everything was absolutely disgusting. Prices were comparable and portions, but I ended up throwing the food away since it was just that gross. I'm not sure how they stay in business with poor quality food and they lie about tax. $17 plus tax according to them is $19, which should actually be $18.51 not $19. I don't mind giving extra money but that food was DISGUSTING. Mofongo was so dark I will attach a photo. This is by far the worst Dominican food I've ever tasted. read more

Im surprised this spot has so many bad reviews let me begin by their amazing customer service ! The women who answers the phone every time i call for delivery is such a sweet heart. Let me also mention their delivery is super fast if you live within the area. I love ordering from here ! read more

Quisqueya is the Taino name for the Dominican Republic and thus, they serve typical Dominican food at this restaurant. It serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner and staples of the DR so I consider this to be a Dominican diner. Mangu for breakfast, plates for lunch, mofongo whenever you want. If you are a cheapie, come for breakfast. You can get the "tres golpes," a filling portion of meat (fried salami, longaniza, etc, fried cheese, mangu/tostones, fried eggs) for only $6. Add a morir sonando (OJ with some milk and sugar), maybe some coffee and you will be in a food coma. Don't forget the chicharron de pollo, the tasty fried chicken of the DR that won't disappoint. Some of the joints in Corona don't take credit card, but this one does so score. read more

Quisqueya Restaurant - Tres golpes - Dominican Near Me - Corona, New York

This was my second experience eating Dominican cuisine. I was in the area and decided to yelp a place to eat and this restaurant popped up. I had the Yuca Empanadas, mofongo and the oxtails. The Yuca was a little salty for me and the filling was just ground beef. Expected a bit more for a two dollar menu item. Mofongo was a bit starchy and hard to be at but it came with a delicious gravy and shrimp. The oxtail was on point. Couldn't get any better than fall off the bone oxtails with a delicious sauce. Staff was a bit rough especially for a non Spanish speaker. There was quite a bit of yelling back and forth between the staff. read more

My home away from home even though I ain't from DR but u get my drift, I've been coming here ever since I can remember, this has always been my spot whenever I feel the craving for some dominican food, I feel like they always open. Once I went to a concert in City Field and walked all the way down at around 2am and place was not only open but full with clientele. Staff it's super friendly, I don't know if i have been here way too many times or if they have a good memory but they always seem to recognize my family and I, one of the waitress even knows my daughters name and knowing she loves their salad the waitress just brings it ahead of time to us so my lil princess could devour it without hesitation. Now I have tasted the mangu, mofongo, carne asada, bistec encebollado, chicharron de pollo, sancocho, bisted salteado and every dish has served its purpose and left me more than satisfied. You know whats a most? To drink a Presidente right off the bat as it opens the appetite nicely and they always ice cold which is a big plus. Food its rich in flavor and not expensive at all. Also their fresh orange juice and lemonade its the bomb diggity, now dont take my word for it, head out there and enjoy urself, always good music and plenty of windows so place its bright. read more

I am not going to eat in this place . They serve rotten meat La carne guisada estaba podrida tenia un olor abinigrada ( the beef stew smell rotten) i gave to my dog and my dog didn't want to eat it either. read more

Favorite Dominican food spot E V E R. Mondongo by far the best .. everything is soooo good. The ladies are very nice. I've been coming here for years! read more

We got take out here yesterday. It is right underneath the subway station. My friend and her sisters are Dominican and one girl really wanted cubanos. It does help to know Spanish. They ordered a lot of food, including cubanos, arroz con pollo and longaniza, empandas, platanos, mofongo, and a sopa that I can't recall the name. All were very yummy and the food was still warm despite the 40 minute train ride back to Midtown. The cubano is better fresh but we were too lazy to warm it up on the stove when we got back. Random: There was also a Brazilian woman selling her homemade truffles in the restaurant. I've had people try to peddle anything from lotto tickets to peanuts in Vietnam but that was the first time someone tried to sell truffles. read more

Came here 3 months ago The food is great very delicious, the prices are fair. But the service is horrible we had to flag down the server everytime...to refill our watercups......for the check.....to tell her we're ready to order... just horrible service. read more

Just had the Mofongo Quisqeya. Big enough for two meals, flavorful, and Lots of big succulent shrimp. Service is good not amazing. Music kind of sporadic and now a song playing continuously goes up and down in volume, pretty annoyingly. Maybe some drunk chef or something. That's what would have been the cause if this were the bagel store I used to work in. Corner spot goes nice views for people watching as the windows are big and clean. The place has a welcoming feel to it too. read more

Tried and true Dominican home cooking - reminds me of eating at my old roommate's mom's crib - the mangu con tres golpes is delicious and with longaniza EVEN better. Coffee is nice and strong and the service is superb - only flaw of mention is unisex the bathroom and it's questionable cleanliness, but if you're all about the food like me next time you'll come with handi-wipes and skip the trip to the loo here :) - Bon appetite! read more

My daughter ordered a pastelito de jamón y queso (ham and cheese patty/empanada) and I got fried chicken with rice and beans. Also got a salad and a side of tostónes. All was delicious. The dressing on salad so delicious that we had to order another one. Will definitely return. read more

Quisqueya Restaurant - Delicious salad - Dominican Near Me - Corona, New York

They got an A on their inspection. The food is still good. I always get the steak and onions. Quick tip, ask for a salad with your entree and its usually free. When your doing take out, sometimes this is overlooked or not asked for! read more

LOVE THEM! I'm orginally from the Bronx and always had Dominican resturants to go to. How I miss that living in Astoria! Most of the latin places are Columbian. Nothing against Columbian food, however it was so so so good to have Mofongo again!! Highly recommend! :) read more

Coming from Florida, I found this restaurant by chance . It's absolutely phenomenal. The food is delicious. Service was too notch. I highly recommend this restaurant. read more

A friend told me to come by that food was good. Of course I take a friends recommendation. After a long day of errands I pass by. Should have ordered my food right away because it took a while to get my food in. I ordered a shrimp cocktail. Took two bites and it was very tasty. On the third bite I bite into something very hard. I knew it wasn't food so I take it out of my mouth. To see it's a plastic round thing. Looks like plastic ring from hot sauce bottle. We tell the waitress and very nonchalantly says ohh it's ok it's just from the hot sauce bottle. I'm in shock from the reaction. So apparently it's not the first time it has happened or they have heard of it. Didn't want to find any thing else so I didn't order anything else. Not a place I'm am going back to. read more

Came here after a drunken Saturday night out..we were looking for a 24 hour Dominican restaurant. As my yellow taxi zoomed by I was like "there! Open!". Their door was locked (it was 5am after all and this area is cluttered with drunks) but luckily they let us in. I had the classic Dominican breakfast.. I could seriously eat it everyday but I would probably be the size of a whale. Mangu, queso frito, eggs, salami, and onions = heaven. My friend had the pork chops with rice & beans.. everything was delicious and came out super quick! Then we left and found a cool taxi cab driver to take us home for 20 bucks. Great night! read more

Great food, the rice and beans with steak was mouth watering. I would've gave Quisqueya a 4th star but its kind of small with too many tables. The person behind me kept bumping me while I was eating from lack of room. Not good for large groups and if you decide to eat in, grab a table that's away from the others, if not take it to go. read more

Quisqueya Restaurant - Dominican Near Me - Corona, New York

Local food dive spot. Went there the other day and service was horrible. They took to long to serve our food which was about an hour wait. I asked the waitress how much longer and she said "hold on I'm going to see now"mean while she didn't even bother to check for about 10 mins I was watching her. Then when they finally bring it out the food it's cold. Skirt steak(entraña) was dry and almost as thin as a finger nail we asked for medium and it was burnt and cold. Also be careful if your allergic to seafood when ordering the larger Dominican style mofongo they add shrimp to platter with shrimp sauce they don't describe that in menu. read more

I wish i could give this place 5stars because i really do like it here. My boyfriend mentioned that his breaded chicken "tastes weird" to be exact and returned it right away. Their salad was yummy. I order their vegetable soup which was okay. The service was okay. Nothing special and the place is kind of pricey. read more

The mofongo here is decent but the service isn't very good. We tried to order food for pick up and they placed us on hold for several minutes and they came back to line and were still busy. They were screaming, trying to take other orders, and weren't patient with us while we tried to place our order. Overall they don't seemed to be very organized and don't know how to prioritize. We also ate here and the service was alright. In the future when we're in the area we will go to another spot not too far from here. read more

Best mangu ever! And their onions taste great with it. Also the morir sonado AMAZING!!

I have ordered food for delivery here before and food comes very quick and its good. The first time I actually went there to order food to go, I was told to have a seat. I didn't expect to sit down for longer then a hour waiting on 1 simple order while everyone seemed to be getting their food and the delivery guy came back 3 times to pick up different orders to deliver. The server told me the food should be out shortly after the 3rd time I asked about it. 15 minutes later I canceled the 1 order I placed and walked out. Good food but horrible service. I suggest you order takeout if you want food here or else you will be waiting an eternity. read more

I have had much better Dominican food in Harlem and Upper West. Quisqueya has a big menu and a convenient address, but the food is not as good. The Mofongo tastes OK, but it is too starchy and sticky, and has too many cow feet in it. The chicken chicharron is a little bit dry and tasteless. The servers are very efficient and friendly to customers though. read more

Unbelievable! I called to try to place an order for delivery and the lady answered hung up on me 3 times telling me "no speak English mami". How RUDE And an unprofessional! Never had an experience like this! It's also kinda hilarious. read more

The food was great. the location sucks. staff is ehhh. hot or miss. but definitely worth it for the food and the value you get.

Nice little restaurant in the middle of nowhere, the sancocho is so good. I tried the chicharon which was a miss to dried, other dishes that I tried were the carne guisada or beef stew which was not that good either, but the beans where good. it's a hit or miss but very affordable and it helps if you speak Spanish otherwise you might have a problem, since I ended up translating for a couple the last time I was here. Lol read more

Great Dominican comida with a massive menu! Start off with yuca empanadas and you'll see what I mean. Delicious oxtail and cubanos too, and the mofongo was amazing, especially with the sauce. If you want to get a taste of authentic Dominican cocina, there's no better place than here. read more

100000% awesome food and service. Been here 25 plus times and this restaurant isnt losing it! They have it down good. Everytime carna asada, thats their best dish in my eyes. I recommend this restaurant to everyone! read more

I live in Long Island and haven't found a Dominican restaurant that tops this one ...the service is great , fast and friendly. The food is fantastic. The monfongo and chueltas are on point .
