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. There's a reason why they've been around so long. If you're in the area craving Dominican food, this is the spot.

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.

Bad customer service feels disrespectful and frustrating from start to finish. Staff act rude or…read moreuninterested, ignore questions, give attitude, or make you feel like a burden for needing help. Long wait times with no updates, wrong orders, poor communication, and no apology make the experience worse. Instead of solving problems, they blame the customer, pass you around, or act careless. You leave feeling annoyed, unheard, and unlikely to ever return. Bad customer service is when a business makes simple interactions stressful and unpleasant. Employees may be dismissive, impatient, or unprofessional, speaking with attitude or ignoring customers completely. Requests are handled slowly, mistakes go unfixed, and nobody takes responsibility. There is little communication, no empathy, and no effort to make things right. Instead of feeling valued, the customer feels frustrated, disrespected, and disappointed by the entire experience.

I live in the area and had been meaning to try this place since I heard it was under new ownership…read more I recently ordered the Mofongo with chicharrón, and it was fantastic. You can really tell they take their time and care with the food--everything was cooked properly, and I especially appreciated that the pork belly chunks were completely cleaned and shaved. That's usually a major turnoff for me elsewhere, so it definitely earned extra points here. The only thing that could be seen as a downside is the price. The Mofongo was $30, which is on the higher side. That said, the portion size, sides, and overall quality absolutely justified the price in my opinion. I'm happy to go back and try more dishes. Best of luck to the new owners, my family and I enjoyed your food very much!

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.

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 chicken felt pretty dry and not much flavor. My favorite is the cheese and the beef which were both satisfying. Ordered the pechuga a la parrilla with rice and beans. 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.

Been coming here for years. (Thanks Clo!) I went with my Mom. We had white rice, beans, and sweet plantains to share. My Mom ordered the Camarofongo. It was a mofongo with shrimp in a savory yellowish sauce and broccoli. I had the Bistec Salteado which is steak that has been cut into thin strips and sautéed in a light vinegar with onions and peppers. The steak was very tender. My Mom left with a little cake to take home for dessert. If you're in Lynn, I recommend a visit.

It would have been better they called to order something else/refund the difference of the Lonche de Cerdo Guisado/Sauteed Pork Lunch I resorted to instead. 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.
