CHICKEN STEW 9/10 CHICKEN PASTELITOS 8/10 BEEF PASTELITOS 7.5/10 RICE + BEANS 10/10 POTATO SALAD 8.5/10 i also recommend their breakfast plates, their eggs + yucca are a perfect start to the day.

I stopped by Punta Cana Dominican Grill curious to try something new. I asked to switch out my…read morewhite rice for yellow, which they did -- and while I was disappointed they forgot my beans, I still gave it a fair try. The yellow rice was fluffy and filling, and the yuca fries were actually a standout -- golden, crispy, and really satisfying. The salad, however, came with no dressing, and the chicken definitely didn't match the saucy, glistening version I saw in their online photos. Mine was a bit drier and missing that visual punch. All in all, it wasn't bad! I wouldn't tell anyone to skip it -- it's worth a taste if you're nearby and in the mood for Dominican food. I have a feeling there are other items on the menu I might enjoy more, so I'd give it another shot with different picks next time.

You don't know anyone's background to be laughing at someone just because they don't speak your language. Just because you assumed since I look Spanish I'm Spanish. Mind you this is a restaurant you're not only going to get Spanish people. If you want your business to succeed you need to have all different kinds of nationalities come to your restaurant. Don't forget why you guys got shut down the first place and honestly I don't even think you guys should be open.

The restaurant doesn't look very big, but it definitely handles a lot of people. It was busy when we walked in but we were seated immediately (you seat yourself at any clean table and a server brings menus right away). We ordered coffees and waters then perused the menu, which is full of wonderful sounding options. I landed on the hash benedict and he got an omelet. We also ordered a blueberry pancake to share. My eggs were *perfectly* poached and the hollandaise was incredible. His omelet was full of meat. The home fries crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The pancake was MASSIVE and full of berries. Service was immaculate. 100/10 will return

I would stick to the fried meats and fried pastries. This really isn't a sit down kind of place so we always get the food to go and I would suggest that option.

It is such a nice treat to have this level of consistency in the food. Everything always tastes fresh, flavorful, and homemade. What I really appreciate is that this is the kind of everyday Dominican food many families actually eat back home in the DR. Real comfort food and classic street-food style offerings you would find throughout the Dominican Republic. The setup is buffet style, so you walk up, choose what you want, and they either plate it for you or pack it to go. The ox tails are outstanding, the chicharrón is always on point, and the rice and beans never miss. Honestly, I have not had a bad meal here yet. You can tell they take pride in the food and care about the quality. The only thing saving me is the 45-minute drive... because if I lived any closer, I would probably be a few more pounds overweight.

Nonetheless, the rice was flavorful but pork was a little dry. The salad that she was hesitant about giving was very refreshing given how well seasoned everything else is. Beans were yummy and the Yaroa had significantly cooled down since that was prepared much earlier. The "secret" sauce is a drizzle of ketchup and mayonnaise crossed over. Overall, food was good so I would be interested in coming again to try more items from their menu.

I tried this place because Matt Shearer was raving about the rice and beans. The mini pastelitos sampler came with chicken, beef and cheese with a dipping sauce.

The char grilled chicken is well season and the overall portion is great. The rice and beans unfortunately tasted just average, I don't agree with Matt Shearer. Overall a good experience for the value.
