The interior is clean with bare tables and chairs. Nothing fancy. The people, the staff is welcoming and friendly. This is a Dominican restaurant. The best mangú (mashed green plantains). The portions are large, the food id delicious, well-seasoned, tasty and flavorful. You can eat leisurely. There is a little wait for your food but it is so worth it. I think if you order mangú, it is prepared upon order. You are not rushed, you can sit and talk after you have eaten. If you love Dominican food, or like to try new foods, give it a try. I enjoyed the food. Remember, if you are in a hurry, this is not the place to go, wait until you have time.

As should be expected Latin music is playing all through out the place and at just that right volume level where you have to talk just a little bit louder and using your hands. The restaurant was lively and had a good amount of people. We ordered the Mangu and the Locrio de Cerdo amongst other things. Everything was really good. Food took awhile to come out but heard they had one person in the kitchen. But good company and good music makes the wait better.

Their happy hour prices are really good and let you try their Latin/asian fusion concept. I had a "sushi" roll made with rice and beans and pork belly.

We did have to push a little to track down the waitress a couple of times for drink refills and for the check because she wasn't super attentive.

IG: @shallonztable El Tiesto Cafe in Fort Lauderdale is one of those hidden gems you might pass by if you're not paying attention and that would be a mistake. My group visited to celebrate my birthday, and the experience was excellent from start to finish. From the outside, the restaurant is unassuming. Step inside and you're greeted by neon accents, an industrial-style space, and artwork that reflects the menu: a thoughtful blend of Dominican and Japanese culture. Th From the outside, it's unassuming. Step inside and you're met with neon accents, an industrial-style space, and a thoughtful blend of Dominican and Japanese décor through the art work that reflects exactly what the menu delivers: balance, culture, and intention. The menu offers a solid mix of appetizers, sandwiches, sushi, and entrées all weaving Dominican comfort with Japanese-inspired elements. The music sets the tone perfectly: upbeat, vibey, and not overpowering, so you can actually enjoy conversation. It's family friendly as there was a mix of various groups and ages enjoying the establishment. Dining is available both indoors and outdoors, with an upstairs lounge that opens later in the evening for DJ sessions on weekends making this a great dinner-to-night-out spot. It's conveniently located just before the train tracks, with paid street parking and nearby lots available. Service stood out immediately. When we arrived, managers were hands-on and present, explaining that things pick up later in the night. I noticed Rollo in particular consistently welcoming guests, walking them through the menu, seating them, and pointing out essentials like restroom locations. That kind of consistency matters. The entire staff was attentive, friendly, and made the experience feel easy. What We Ordered & Loved: Mini Mofongos - Beef & Chicken ($15) Served in green plantain cups, these mini mofongos were savory, garlicky, and comforting. Both meats were juicy and well-seasoned. Picadera de Campo Sampler ($38) A Dominican-style platter with sausage, chicken wings, fried cheese, salami, fried green plantain, and yuca fries. This sampler brought full Dominican vibes to the table. I'm not usually a wings person, but these were naked, well-seasoned, and surprisingly good. That Yuca came topped with chimichurri sauce, that was a rich harmonious blend herbs and garlic coming through and man it was delicious along with everything on the platter. And fried cheese? Always a yes. Great portion, great presentation, perfect for sharing. La Chapi Roll ($18) Chicken tempura, bacon, cream cheese, ripe plantain, chicharrón, eel sauce, sweet chili, bell peppers, and mashed avocado. Now let me be clear -- I am not a sushi lover. But this? One of my favorite dishes of the night. The crunch, the sweetness from the chili sauce, the richness of the tempura, every bite delivered balance of everything.This roll is a must-order, especially if sushi usually isn't your thing. Tiesto Chofan ($20) Dominican-style fried rice we had the mix of chicken and shrimp, it was layered, perfectly seasoned, cooked just right, and packed with flavor, they didn't hold back on the protein. This is one of those dishes I'd recommend to everyone, comforting, bold, and satisfying and balanced with the ripe plantains. La Cosquillita ($26) 24-hour Dominican-seasoned baby back ribs glazed in a homemade Japanese BBQ sauce, served with sushi rice and tostones. You can smell the ginger in the sauce before the first bite, and it creates a cohesive, balanced flavor that pairs beautifully with the fresh sushi rice and plantains. It's a balance of ginger in the bbq sauce that makes the dish interesting, the meat was tender and flavour forward. Tiesto Tres Leches ($8) Flavor-wise, it's very vanilla forward, but I personally wished the cake was more soaked. It was light, still enjoyable just not my favorite dish of the night. The flavor of the milk was amazing, spiced and flavourful and would make it even better if soaked a bit more. Extras Worth Noting 20% Service charge is automatically included. Street paid parking is available. They offer nightly specials . I do like they had a Saturday specials, and unlike most places, Saturday 2x1 drink special on mojitos, margaritas, sangria from 3pm-5pm which makes this an easy early-evening stop. Overall, El Tiesto Cafe delivers on atmosphere, service, and flavor. It's a place where cultures meet, food tells a story, and the vibe carries you from dinner into the night. Where food meets adventure--see you back at the table! IG: @shallonztable Review #2 - 2026

It was soo much to choose from on the menu that I needed a few minutes. Both drinks came out great and the Pina colada was different my first time having it with whip cream (delicious just needed a different kind of alcohol).

Inside the place definitely shows its age and could use a refresh. Despite only a few other tables being occupied, service was very slow. We waited a while before our orders were taken, and then longer to receive our drinks and few appetizers. The staff didn't seem friendly or attentive, which was disappointing. They were all off to the back of restaurant conversing amongst themselves. Drinks are a bit overpriced, but they were unique. I have to give them that. The overall vibe was not there for us, maybe we came on an off day for them, but I dont see myself returning any time soon.

Home cooking style food, always fresh, and a menu packed with options (in a good way). This time, I stopped in around 10am for breakfast and went with the guineos with fried egg, salami, and cheese instead of the mangú. But, my friend ordered the mangú, which was smooth and flavorful. We also grabbed a pound of chicharrón and some aguacate, and everything tasted just made--crispy, fresh, and on point. What really keeps me coming back is the consistency. The servers and counter staff are always friendly, patient, and accommodating, even when it's busy (which it usually is) . There's almost always a crowd, but that just means fresh food that never sits around. From pastelitos to sancocho and everything in between, it's all reliable and well done. As for the ambiance: it's no-frills, and feels like a neighborhood spot you need in your life. You hear Spanish music, smell food cooking, see regulars coming and going--it has that old-school Latin cafeteria vibe. Nothing fancy, but exactly what you expect from a place that focuses on good food. And the real star? The rotisserie chicken!!!! For sure some of the best I've had in South Florida. So if you're in Fort Lauderdale, or Broward County, or nearby, Pollo Típico is absolutely worth a visit. Always consistent, always a good choice, and for me, it gives me a taste of back up north with both the food and the service. Heads-up: if you dine in, you'll probably leave smelling like cooking oil, but honestly, that's a small price to pay for food this good

I crave Latin food every so often, so I made the drive and was not disappointed. I ordered the churrasco with white rice and red beans, and it honestly took me back home... it reminded me so much of my mom's cooking.

I truly wish this place were closer to where I live in downtown because I ended up ordering it on Uber Eats and it took almost two hours to arrive.

They're open quite late, so it was nice to have the option on UberEats for delivery past midnight! **Yarao-- fries topped with a layer of melted cheese and chicken, smothered in another layer of mayo and ketchup. Pretty sweet and tasty, enjoyed this one :) ** Fritura Mixta / Mixed fried plate-- big platter of fried pork belly, cheese, chicken, beef, sausage, sausage links, and plantains. Meats were mostly dry and needed to be dipped in sauce. I liked the fried cheese, which were hearty and squishy like poutine curds and the sausage links, while friends liked the plantains (which were also tasty the next day!). Nice to try the variety, but wouldn't order again since we didn't finish most of it. ** Mofongo-- came with fried pork belly and sausages plus lettuce swimming in mayo. Friends told me the mofongo usually has a meat filling in the middle, but this version was an entire mound of the same plantain mixture and texture. It was dry and hard to cut even with a plastic knife, and it was actually hard for me to swallow too but would probably benefit by dipping in sauce or ketchup. ** Burrito-- description on the menu was not very.. descriptive, but it was filled with steak, lettuce, tomatoes, and the mayo/ketchup sauce. This was an overall juicy and flavorful item, but the steak was stark contrast and pretty dry, making it hard to tear or bite off pieces. This burrito was my favorite of the meal! ** Pizza Empanada-- There was lot of fried shell to get through on the sides before reaching the middle filled with cheese and pizza sauce. Pretty tasty, quite oily~ ** Chicken tacos-- came with little cups of hot sauce and salsa + lime halves, but the shredded meat was super dry and literally hard to swallow. We didn't make it past one bite. Overall, happy to try them and filled us up for a late meal when options were limited but I'm sure there are better places for Dominican food out there. I would choose the burrito if trying this place again.
