I would go back for the buffet any day of the week. It's also very affordable and has a great atmosphere. Get down there and give this place a try!

It was seasoned to perfection and held its crisp even on an 11 mile DoorDash journey. I couldn't believe how they managed to keep the potatoes so creamy! It was almost like a layer of mashed potatoes in between. I'll definitely be ordering again.

I had the mangu with a fried egg, fried cheese, and salami. I also ordered the pernil plate with yellow rice, which came with some nice crispy pieces.

It's definitely a place I'll be returning to in the future, prices reasonable, all-around some great Dominican food.

Tasty grilled chicken, delectable maduros, perfectly seasoned rice & beans... My mouth is watering just thinking about the food. I can't speak to the ambience of the restaurant or the location or even really the service (except for the fact that they wrote a very cute note on my bag of food - thanks!) because I ordered delivery. But the food? Spectacular. I was also able to stretch it to two meals. Great bang for buck, here. I'll definitely keep this spot in mind if I'm ever in the area again.

I've driven by this place a few times and the outside is bright and inviting. Looking past the…read morefront door, I typically see a ton of people inside. Now that I've gone here, I understand why! Inside along the right side are a series of tables for dine in customers. On the left side is the staff with a buffet table of prepared foods. There is also a pizza oven, and pizza is part of the store name...they must make good pizza (I didn't try). The buffet hot table consists of many traditional dominican comfort foods. They all look very delicious and pretty fresh, even towards the end of the day when I went. The place looks clean and the vibes are casual and chill. Staff tried their best to help this noob decide what to buy. Fried pork chicharone - These were excellent! They present them as slabs of fried pork on a tray. When you order them, I like that the server asks you which piece you'd like, or if this piece is ok. They bring it to the side and chop it up for you before placing it in the box. I saw someone else's not chopped, so I guess that is an option. It was about $18ish for the slab (about a pound). The skin was very crisp and the meat wasn't overly dry. Beware, this is pork belly so know that there will be some fat! Beef Stew - This looked really good and it was very popular. We waited for our order to finish and saw many people buying this. You get an option of white or yellow rice and 1 side. We got the yellow rice but most others chose white. They pile on the rice...a LOT. One customer had to tell them to stop. There's not a lot of meat portion but it was still enough. We chose fried bananas as the side (which kind of tastes starchy, like a potato). The stew pieces were good and tender enough. Could've been more tender for my tastes, but still good enough. Flavor was good. This plate was about $14. Chicken empanada - Not sure how much this was, maybe $3. It had good amounts of shredded chicken inside but it tasted dry. They should add cheese (lots of cheese) with this so that it could be better balanced. I would skip this. Fried chicken - These come in orders of 3 pieces, 6, 9, 12 etc. They are mostly wing pieces, at least in my order. They were out of these when we arrived, so we waited for a fresh batch. These tasted really good. Not overly breaded, but just right with a very slight crisp coating. Flavor was good and chicken was moist. I would get these again. This was also about $14. Check out was easy and they take apple pay. This place is still new and is evident if you try to ask the ladies behind the desk how much things costs - they're not really sure. However, they were friendly and tried to answer as many questions as I had. Parking is only street parking, but those are plentiful on this part of main street. Go check them out if you're looking for a comforting meal.

Mine came with yuca. I broke the yuca into smaller chunks and put it in the shrimp coconut sauce. Yum- 4/5. Tostones. Delicious.

We started with an oxtail dish served over mashed plantains, layered with pork, onions, and a blend of seasonings, all brought together with a rich, flavorful sauce. Every bite was tender, savory, and perfectly balanced, you can tell this is comfort food done right. We also ordered a side of crispy pork with yellow rice and beans, and it did not disappoint. The pork had that perfect crisp on the outside while staying juicy inside, and everything paired beautifully with the fresh vegetables on the side. Service really made the experience even better. Melissa, our waitress, was sweet, professional, and incredibly accommodating, she made sure we had everything we needed without ever feeling rushed. The ambiance ties it all together. The decor gives you that authentic island, Dominican feel, making it a great spot to relax and enjoy a meal. Just a quick note: they serve beer and wine only, which still pairs nicely with the food. Overall, this was an amazing experience from start to finish. I'll definitely be back!

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.
