Cozy spot offering home-cooked Dominican dishes such as mofongo for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
From Google Maps reviews.
Nowadays, the options for Dominican food/adjacent cuisines in lower Manhattan aren’t as abundant as they used to be. Because of that, it’s really nice to have this place around. The lunch special was a great deal at $12, and the carne guisada was incredibly tender. Though I do wish I got a bit more of the stew and less of the [spanish] rice, which itself was still really good. The tostones were freshly made, as evidenced by the additional five minute wait time. WELL WORTH IT! Seriously some of
I'm always up for trying out a new Dominican spot in NYC and hearing one is in Chinatown I had to check this out especially given the recent win the spot got winning the 2025 Blue Moon Burger Bash People's Choice Award for Best Burger with their Dominican Smash Burger. Right off the bat, the spot is a bit small but works well if your coming with a friend as their are some seats and a charging station too if you need that recharge which is nice of them to have but for the most part this is a grab
Wow 🔥 🔥 🔥 Authentic home-made Dominican Republic food!! Melts in your mouth. Bombastic flavors. We got beef stew, chicken mogongo, and the smash burger with the fried cheese!! Staff were super nice and accommodating.
