You look at the menu via QR code but someone comes around to take your order. Our waitress was really kind. My food was really tasty. However I will say our meats were cold for some reason, despite the rice and beans being piping hot. It felt like the meats were reheated from the fridge, but didn't quite get there. This did lose a star. But the sauce on top and the beans and rice all did offer lots of flavor, just wish it was hot. We were there pretty late on a Sunday and it was busy for it being smaller inside. Lots of people grabbing takeout orders and people eating around us too. Note: I've seen old pictures where food seemed to be scooped in front of you at the counter, but I did not see that in my recent visit. Not sure if this changed. What we ordered: -Churrasco, served with Garden salad, White Rice and Green Pigeon Peas -Full plate - White Rice with Red Beans, Res Guisado (Stew Beef) -Tostones

Wow. I haven't had much Dominican food in the past to compare this to, but this was GREAT. The…read moreportion sizes are huge and the prices are so affordable - I will absolutely be coming back here again and again. This time, I ended up getting the Chicharrón with spaghetti instead of rice and beans because I had heard that Dominican spaghetti was something I had to try, and I didn't regret it at all. For the price of $14, this was probably 1.5-2 portions of food. I will be having this for dinner later on today! Chicharrón ($14) - These were deep fried pork belly chunks and they were pretty much cooked perfectly. They were seasoned well and just so crispy and juicy. When you deep fry pork belly in chunks, it's really easy to overcook them and dry them out, but this was just wonderfully lightly crispy on the outside and still so juicy and moist on the inside. Biting into each chunk was like a wonderful burst of flavor - really amazing job on these. Spaghetti (side) - Ah yes the Dominican spaghetti. If you want Italian pasta, this is not it, but it had a certain home-cooked charm and was a type of spaghetti I had not tasted before. It was creamy, tomato-ey, and buttery. The closest I can compare is that it had the texture of chef boyardee pasta, but the taste was much more smokey with hints of sweetness and umami. It was really filling and delicious! All in all - a great deal. $14 for that much food and meat is amazing, and everything tasted really fresh and well-cooked. I will absolutely be returning!

Another day, another Spanish restaurant!…read more It's a true blessing to live around wonderful Dominican/Puerto Rican restaurants. My son loves arroz con pollo. He can eat it everyday. When I walked in, it was a little cozy restaurant with 6-7 seatings. It was lunch time so there were a few tables occupied. I was there to get lunch to go. I wish I took more pictures of the hot bar. The two lovely ladies there were nice and helpful. I wish I knew they had a lunch menu because the gentleman that came in after me, he asked for the lunch portion. Next time! I got stewed chicken and white rice/beans for $19. It's the dinner portion. Not sure if I could have gotten sides like sweet plantains or yucca. A little language barrier. For $19, I'm assuming it should come with it but didn't. That's ok! Next time ima make sure to ask. One of the ladies that came out after knew English but it was too late because I already paid for my order. My whole order came out to be $30. This included the stewed chicken, side order of spaghetti, and side order of tuna mac salad. Everything was delicious. The stewed chicken was good but compared to my other places, this is probably 4th on the list. A little too salty. The spaghetti was really good. If you never had Dominican spaghetti before, I highly you to go try! Tuna salad at this spot was really good. So far the best I've had. Will definitely come back here to try other things! Especially the lunch menu. Downfall was, I didn't see a menu. Looked around for 5 minutes but couldn't find it lol

This time, we got both our desserts. I requested for hot sauce and never got any on the first order. This second time, each order received hot sauce. Thank you ! Food - the yellow Spanish rice is amazing! So much flavor. For $10.99, such a good deal for lunch menu price. I got their stewed beef with yellow rice. Added Potato Ball / Bollo de Papa for $2. (Also added Potato Salad / Ensalada de papa $3 , was not great . I don't recommend) lol Overall, this place is decent. I do recommend trying if you're looking for something quick and simple!

They helped their own Dominican people before blacks and it's so weird and strange if you don't know English learning it because at the end of the day, I don't know what it is, but that's just weird If you are Black, please do not eat at this place. They do not condone black customers. They do not respect black customers. They do not like black customers please please save the time.

Amazingly, they have a combo meal--chicken, rice, and beans--for about $7. And the chicken in particular is amazing. I don't know what their recipe is, but it's worth checking out. Not only that but unlike most small storefront restaurants, Caribe serves their food on real plates, not Styrofoam. I'm definitely going back!

The breading was falling apart, and the portion was tiny, in comparinson the amount of sides. The Mofogon was bland and the chicken in the mofogon was weirdly shredden and almost non existent.

The chimi was oversaturated with mayo and ketchup to the point that the bottom half of the bread was soggy. The ZaPote smoothie was ok, but nothing I would order again . The red beans were really the star. They were thick, flavorful and tasted homemade. I really hope the quality of the food improves to match the beans.

L&C may offer a limited menu on the app (we also ordered past lunch time so that may have a player a factor) but the food is amazing! We got some pastillas/empanadas, chicharrón, and Sopa de Pollo (chicken soup)... all 5 stars. The pastillas/empanadas fillings were simple ground beef, some with cheese/con queso, but delicious. Outer shell was crisp but chewy (in a good way) at the same time. Chicharrón could stand up to Yely's (if you know you know). The Sopa de Pollo/Chicken Soup was the highlight. The spices were simple but with a Latin twist. The chicken was tender and the include the Bone for flavor. Completed with noodles and veggies, it's really a treat! The price was very fair for the amount and quality of food.
