    This past August, we met up with some friends that we hadn't seen in quite a while. They suggested Areito's in Hollywood for a drink. The ambiance was really cool with lots of blue and purple lights. The dj was playing a lot of older Latin music, which we liked. There was some room for dancing, if you wanted to. It is not a large place, but it's very comfortable and big enough for our purpose. We didn't order food because we had planned to eat elsewhere. We had a variety of drinks, beer, and wine. The service was good, friendly, and welcoming. Parking is at a lot next door in a nice area of town. We would go back again in the future.

    The server

    this place has servers who steal money and the employees be in on it too. My first time here I ordered a chimi and juice it was overpriced $30+ just for the item it was mid not worth it I had better Dominican food. Then the server was eyeing my wallet/ where my money was and ended up pickpocketing my purse and stole $300 out of my purse. I tried to report to police same day they didnt want to take it serious & they said I can check cameras but I have to contact owner which is another near impossible needle in a hay stack situation. Can never get in contact with owner. This place are thiefs and you better off going to AKI E or La casita Tropical for more of a Dominican expierence mind you I was there only guest at 3-5pm and my sever was a Colombian girl. & they still didn't have no customers at 9pm she said when I kept going back. it's very empty place and they rarely have customers and I see why the food is overpriced mid and their employees are thiefs DO NOT RECOMEEND

    Dominican Eatery with outdoor seating Live band, Brunch Menu Delicious food! I had steak and Eggs with seasoned fries. When I say this food was delicious trust me you won't be disappointed. I also had the bread pudding but I ate it before I got a picture.

    Small but OK grilled chicken, bean soup and tostones

    Again, I understand how supply chains are backed up. But when I place an order and the waitress comes back to say something isn't available - nay when multiple dishes aren't available - rating a place two stars is being very generous. Add to that the fact the men's toilet seat was loose, and water not flowing in one of the sink, this certainly was not somewhere I'd rush to return. So after my finding that my first choice wasn't available I settled for their smallish portion of grilled chicken with sauteed onions and a sweetish sauce, red beans and tostones. To their credit, the tostones looked to be home made and had a decent crisp. The red bean soup was also OK. My friend and I were going to share dessert and coffee but surprise, surprise, they were out. Yeah No. I'll definitely listen to her the next time, since when we walked in the place was mostly empty and she didn't get a good vibe. Seeing some of the other reviews, and by our experience, I see she was on point.

    Came here for a girls night out and we had a great time. The place is small so if you're not a fan of smaller places this isn't the place for you. We went on a Sunday afternoon and they had a live típico band. The music was awesome and the band was great. They had intermissions when a DJ would take over and he also did a great job. We ordered food and we loved it. Very Dominican menu and the taste was great. Chicharrón de pollo is amazing, highly recommend. It's not a super fancy place, but the service was good and the vibe was good too. I would def come back!

    It was an early Saturday night my friend and I were looking for a fun place and did not expect to walk into Areito for a fun (early) night with amazing food and music. Our bartender for the night was Genesis also known as boca chula ( there is more than one Genesis ). This lady is the sweetest and so attentive ! She made the most amazing drinks and took her time to make sure we taste all the flavors. When you enter the bar and grill, you definitely get a field of bright, colorful Miami vibes. Although it is a smaller restaurant, it is spacious with big booths all around and a fun ambience with lights and brightness. My favorite decoration was actually the bar with its velvet emerald green chairs with accents. My favorite drink of the night was the green tea. I had a green salad as an appetizer and I had the steak with mashed potatoes as my main entrée. the food was infused with good flavor, and it was very satisfying. The music was great because it had a variety of old Latin music from years back to current music today. I can appreciate a DJ, who has a good variety of different Latin style of music. I hope to come back and try other foods and drinks on their menu.

    I've been to Puerto Rico several times and had the Munfungo there. I was hoping this was the same taste. I ordered it online and picked it up. Once I got home it was still fresh and hot and very delicious. The chicken empanadas was OK but still tasty. I would definitely order this again.

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.

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

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

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.
