OMG! I'm so happy my boyfriend brought me here. The food was so good. I must admit, I wish it…read morewasn't a secret where I was going because I needed way more time to look over the menu and decide. But I managed to come to an excellent conclusion. The snapper!! Con arroz y habichuelas Rojas which my very sweet server, Josehyleen helped me learn how to pronounce. She was so great with providing recommendations and checking in at the right times. All the ladies were on point. And when guest left, a table did not remain unclean for more than 30 seconds before they all rushed to help clean it. The space is the perfect quaint size for a family dinner or even a small party. There were plenty to go orders which is telling. The community clearly knows the food is good. I cannot wait to go back this week for the lunch special. I give everything a 10 out of 10. Except the service. 100/10 for Josehyleen and the other ladies.

So I should say upfront, I am not sure this is the correct location that I was at or not. It is a…read morechain though, so I am sure differences are extremely slim. I was visiting Orlando and I have a lot of friends and family here. My niece took us here for lunch with high praises of the place. I was excited since I haven't eaten good Dominican outside of the few dishes I've learned how to make over the years. We arrived and immediately began to order. There were a lot of us so I will only review what I ate. I ordered a small sancocho to start. It was ok, but was seriously devoid of seasoning. From the start you could tell they were playing it safe with the flavors. Trying to appease as many tongues as they could. I hadn't had sancocho in a very long time, so I was seriously disappointed. For my main course I ordered the monfongo with pernil. Where the sancocho lacked flavor the monfongo and pernil over reached. It was crazy salty. Like way too salty. I could only get through a few spoonfuls before I called it quits. I then turned to some of my wife's rice and beans and was right back to flavorless. About the only thing that tasted even was the chicharon de pollo. But even that was lack luster. It's always hard to find a good Dominican food restaurant. I will keep searching but till then I guess I will just continue to hone my skills at cooking it at home. The atmosphere itself was good. Sort of a mid-stage afternoon spot. Nice, clean, nothing too trendy or new. Just an average spot. If you have never had Dominican food this may be the spot for you. Something safe so you aren't over whelmed by flavors. If you grew up on it like me, I feel you will be disappointed.

First time at Gozambas in 2026. They still have the tacos deal and of course, the Toro too. I took…read morethe margarita for 14 dollars and it was pretty good and strong enough to tranquil this cowboy. The shrimp tacos were a great deal for 8 dollars. 3 tacos with meaty and plump shrimp and fresh veggies in a light sauce. There was a small amount of spicy sauce to kick it up a notch. It took a while to order dessert, but the cheesecake (8 dollars) was fine and they were very to give me an extra slice. While the food is good, the service can be pretty slow and sometimes careless. I thought the people next to me at the other table were patrons, but they looked to be advertisers for the food and promotions. The other staff can get busy, so it is best to pack some patience. When I paid the bill, always a good idea to ask for an itemized bill, so you know what's getting charged. When I paid the bill, I think they first mentioned that it didn't include tip, and I didn't have proper change to give them cash. But after looking closer at the total cost, I am pretty sure it included 20 percent already. Staff needs to be honest about this. Honestly, you all know why I came and this is the reason why I always come on a Tuesday... The mechanical bull! It always comes on Tuesdays around 8:30, and normally ready to ride 15 minutes later. I did not see any other guests ride, and the only other riders was the advertisers. So I took a couple rides on it, and it was just a fun and enjoyable ride. Since the ride operator knows me, he normally goes at a pace where I can just enjoy a thrill without risking of falling off. Good practice before riding the real ones. Honestly, this cowboy is selfish. If it wasn't for the bull rides, the restaurant would just be another nightclub place.. While the food is good and the security staff are nice, the service can be slow and maybe dishonest. I still enjoy this place and love going on Tuesdays mostly because of the free bull rides. As long as they still have em on Tuesday, I will keep on coming to practice, and hopefully will be ready to ride the real bulls again soon! Overall: B- for the restaurant. A+ for the bull rides.

At this point, I think I can officially call myself a paella connoisseur . If I see paella on the…read moremenu, I HAVE to try it. I don't make the rules. So of course, when I went to Pal Campo Restaurant, I had to order the paella. I didn't dine in this time, I grabbed it to go. First impression? They definitely got my attention because there was a big ol' lobster sitting right on top! Now THAT is how you introduce me to a plate of paella. The flavor was really good, the seafood was good, and overall I enjoyed it. My one issue was the peppers and onions. There were a LOT of big chopped pieces that I could clearly see and taste, and for me, that was a little bit of a turnoff. I prefer everything in my paella to blend together a little more. But did that stop me from eating it? Absolutely not. And here's the funny part. I ate the leftovers the next day and somehow it tasted even better! Maybe everything just needed a night to get acquainted because that second-day paella was hitting. So, as your self-appointed traveling paella inspector, I'm giving this one a 8/10. The flavor was there. The lobster definitely earned some extra points. I just needed those peppers and onions to calm down a little bit.

It's a lively, family-friendly spot that makes you feel like you're back on the island. Now, on to the food! I ordered the Chuleta Can Can, and this thing was massive! So big that I couldn't finish it. Unfortunately, it was a little on the salty side, which took away from the flavor. The rice was also a bit bland and could have used more seasoning. Surprisingly, the beans were delicious and probably my favorite part of the meal. And I know what most people are thinking mix the rice and beans together but a good Puerto Rican white rice is always seasoned. Overall, the atmosphere was great, and we enjoyed the live music and family setting. Definitely a nice place to experience some Puerto Rican culture.
