Casa Adela 66 Avenue C (AKA Loisaida Ave.)…read moreNew York, NY 10009 Half Rotisserie Chicken The staff already made a great impression as soon as I was seated. I was surprised (in a good way) that a fork, knife and spoon was automatically provided. Most restaurants only place a fork and knife on the table and I always have to request a spoon with my meal. This tissi had beautifully charred skin and tender, white meat. It was love at first bite. The chunk meat is fairly large and it will make a great leftover meal for the next day. As a bonus, a tall pitcher of complimentary chilled water is provided. This location only accepts cash, so please plan accordingly. As I was leaving, I unintentionally left a personal belonging on the restaurant table. My server stepped outside the restaurant and brought me my item. This is one of my better dining experiences from start to finish; the chef and servers clearly go above and beyond. #casaadela #halfrotisseriechicken

We loved the ease of ordering, responsiveness and when it was time to pick up our food, the packaging and overall pick up experience was top tier. We traveled an hour for the food because a few local restaurants were not responsive or offered poor service. Ordering from Freakin Rican was well worth the travel and we will support them for future events. Thanks!

First i was to say the staff here is so nice and friendly! Very attentive too. The restaurant is decorated beautifully and modern. Bathroom was super clean and decorated nice and culturally. I enjoyed my pina colada, my appetizers and meal. I loved the mojito they offered! It was sooo good!! Even the flan was good, although the caramel was a bit sweeter than I'm use to. I still enjoyed it. Great experience and i will definitely come back

There was a sign on the door saying the gas had been turned off, and I received no notice or cancellation ahead of time which was incredibly frustrating after going out of my way to get there in the cold. Afterward, I looked into their recent health inspection reports and found MULTIPLE VIOLATIONS, which raises additional concerns about the situation and closure reasons. Between the confirmed reservation, no communication, and what I found afterward, I personally wouldn't feel comfortable ever returning. I'd recommend others look into this as well before making plans.

The first time I ordered from here it was a shot in the dark but my food arrived with a sweet, thank you message on the bag and pure magic on the inside. Visiting is always a pleasure as well! Very warm staff who recommended I try their house-made garlic sauce which elevated a dish that already broke the scale. I think I'm ready to put somebody on payroll just so they can fetch this for me on a regular basis since I'm out of range on all delivery apps. I hear they're under new management as of the last year or so and I hope the quality of the food and kindness of the staff still remains. Stopping by will be my first order of business in 2026. **Can somebody local please update with their new phone number, the one listed is no longer accurate**

If you really think about it the Dominican food has taken over the Bx. I searched, and found this place. The moment you step in you are greeted with the warmest blessings. The 2 beautiful people that worked there made our time there so memorable. The food was out of this world let me tell you. Also, I will say it is AFFORDABLE. portion size was huge and the place was so CLEAN. Food: Pernil: 10/10 flavorful and tender Yellow (arroz con gandules) and Black rice with the beans: 10/10 both were good and couldn't even decide which one was better Pulpo 9/10 : fresh and tangy, cut into small pieces so you can top it on your rice Alcapurrias: 8/10 great and made differently then what I'm used to but it was sooo good I'd come again for this alone Juices: Ask them to try the juices and they will let you. We tried it all. Came home with passion fruit (parcha) and guyaba (guanabana) Delicious 10/10 It was so fresh and they don't add too much ice so you get all the juice taste. All in all I'm coming here from now on. A true BX staple for the community and a true essence of the Bori pride resides here. If you miss PR, come here.

This place has really fallen off. The food used to be tasty, and the portions abundant. I know…read moreeverything is expensive now but what's happening here is absolutely ridiculous. Earlier this year, I overheard the man who I thought could be the owner telling another customer that foot traffic had slowed down since the implementation of congestion pricing, and they weren't sure they were going to keep the place open past the end of May because they weren't making as much money at this location as they had previously. Well, they're still open, but it seems like since the place isn't a moneymaker, it's no longer a priority. I've only been back a handful of times since then because they seem to be taking shortcuts in an effort to save dough. The arroz con gandules is mushy and flavorless; the chicharron are small and dry; the serving of beans is literally two teaspoons of beans and the rest of the (downsized) container is cooking liquid. Every time I go back hoping for a delicious meal, I'm sorely disappointed. Today I found a piece of raw chicken mixed into my vegetables. Turned my stomach immediately. Now I'm just hoping I don't end up with salmonella.

The staff are very friendly, despite the limited English skills (and we don't speak Spanish). The restaurant takes cash and Zelle. Both of the below entrees came with rice and (a very small portion of) plantain. *Roast Pork: I assume this was pernil. It had a nice balanced seasoning that was gently savory and went well with the rice. Not a particularly "wet" dish, don't expect a lot of sauce. *Chicken Stew: They gave us two large drumsticks of chicken stew. The marinade / sauce is VERY lightly flavored and I wish the seasoning could be stronger / more interesting. This is not the best Dominican food I ever had but I did appreciate the homey charm and the very low prices. For two servings of roast pork and one serving of chicken stew we paid $40 flat!! It was enough to serve our group of four. I don't know how many other places in Hell's Kitchen or other well-visited parts of Manhattan would be this affordable.

Even though I arrived an hour late for my reservation, the hostess graciously found a way to seat us. They don't serve alcohol, but there's a liquor store around the corner, and with a $20 corkage fee, our bottle of sangria paired perfectly with dinner. The space is nostalgic, modern, and incredibly welcoming. Hearing La India playing while we enjoyed bacalaitos and pastelillos was the perfect touch. Our entrées: pastelón, blackened salmon, and La Gallina were all outstanding. The birthday celebration was unforgettable, with singing, maracas, and music, followed by delicious bread pudding and tres leches cake. Chef Francis even stopped by our table! My friend realized she had missed the blood sausage on the menu, and they surprised her with a complimentary order to take home. That thoughtful gesture perfectly captured the warmth and hospitality of Cocotazo. The standout dishes for me were the bacalaito and the pastelón, both are must-orders. I also recommend making a reservation in advance on Resy. If you're driving, street parking can be tough, but there's a convenient parking lot just one block away at 409 E. 110th St.

The food was okay, but it didn't quite live up to my expectations. The arroz con gandules was on the dry side, and the meat could have used more seasoning, particularly salt, to bring out the flavor. Overall, it wasn't a bad meal, but it wasn't memorable enough for me to make the trip again. While I'd like to believe this was an off day, based on this experience I probably wouldn't go out of my way to return. Super excited to try the food but did not meet expectations. Restaurant itself is small and cute. Sounds of coqui in the bathroom.
