Family-owned eatery serving Latin-Caribbean specialties in cozy storefront for over 20 years.
From Google Maps reviews.
The place is beautiful, the staff is so great and caring. I love it each time I come here, and in my opinion is one of the best Dominican restaurants in Manhattan specifically in Harlem. I will 100% recommend it for you to come and try everything on the menu because each and one of the things there is super good. And by the way now I learned that also here at caridad you can also order in the go by using the self kiosks in the entrance to the restaurant, making your live way easier and simple.
We ordered from Caridad on a Saturday night because my sister didn’t feel like cooking for the whole family. We were all excited to sit down and enjoy a good meal together, but the chicharrón de pollo was a huge disappointment. It was so salty that none of us could eat it…not my niece, nephew, parents, friend, sister, or me. We ended up throwing it away, which felt like such a waste. The rest of the food was much better. The sancocho was actually a hit, especially for my dad. I tried it too, and
I went to this Dominican restaurant with my mom for lunch and really enjoyed it! I had a sandwich and a morir soñando, and the staff was very kind and attentive. Overall, we enjoyed the food and had a great experience. Loved the new waitress 🫶
