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.

If you're in Broward County and craving authentic Dominican street food, look no further than Super…read moreChimihurry El Malecon. This food truck has quickly established itself as the go-to spot for the best chimi--a Dominican burger--around. From the moment I arrived, the vibrant energy of the location caught my attention.

The outdoor seating enhances the experience, allowing diners to enjoy the delicious smell of grilled meats wafting through the air. Now, let's talk about the chimi.

The staff is friendly and attentive, always ready to recommend their favorite dishes or customize your chimi to your liking.

The restaurant had advertised World Cup specials on social media, including beer buckets for $19 and shots for $5. However, when we received the bill, we were charged $45 for each beer bucket and $15 per shot. At no point when we walked in, sat down, or ordered were we told that the advertised prices would not apply or that different event pricing was being charged. When we questioned it, we were told that another restaurant across the street was charging a $50 cover for the game, but that has nothing to do with the prices this restaurant advertised to its own customers. If prices are going to change for a specific game or event, that should be clearly disclosed before people order, not after they receive the bill. They offered a $20 credit, but that did not come close to addressing the issue. I am not upset about paying for what we ordered. I am upset that the pricing was not transparent and did not match what was being advertised. Be careful and confirm all prices before ordering here, especially during special events or games. My friends and I will never step foot in here again. Greedy asf.

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.

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.

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.

The service was friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even better. The Mofongo was absolutely amazing--I had never tried anything quite like it before. My wife ordered the Pork Belly Mofongo, while I went with the Crispy Roasted Pork. Both were incredibly flavorful, and the combination of the crispy pork with the mofongo was fantastic. We also ordered fried Dominican sausage, which was delicious. My wife's friends had the salmon with rice and oxtail with mofongo, and everything looked and smelled amazing. One of my favorite surprises was the little pieces of crispy pork inside the mofongo. They added such a nice texture and extra flavor. The mofongo itself was hearty, savory, and very satisfying. For dessert, we ordered the Baked Sweet Coconut. I was already completely full, so I skipped it, but my wife tried it and said it was a little too sweet for her taste. One thing to keep in mind if you're dining with a group: since we were a party of five, an 18% gratuity was already included on the bill. We also noticed a 3% credit-card processing fee, so if you want to avoid that extra charge, you may want to consider paying with cash
