This time I came in with my parents after my wife kept raving about the Dominican chimi and the grilled chicken. We came specifically to try those and, as usual, left completely satisfied. I ordered the chimi and the picadera again, and once more we were blown away. The picadera was stacked with tostones, grilled chicken, fried chicken, fried pork chops, and fried ham. Everything was hot, seasoned well, and cooked exactly the way it should be. The chimi was excellent from the first bite to the last, and the mayo-ketchup tied all the flavors together perfectly. Honestly, just look at the food. I don't know why I even need to keep explaining it. Stop reading the reviews and go eat. Yes, it's that good. Yes, you get real value for your money. And yes, you will walk away full. You're welcome. 5/5 stars.

A New Restaurant in New City. We were going to sit down around the corner only to find out that…read moreShen is a takeout-only restaurant. I quickly consulted The Yelp and found this nice sit-down place, so we came on over and enjoyed a restaurant to ourselves on a Saturday afternoon. (I won't lie - "Ixchel Bakery" caught my eye first for the name alone - but I haven't checked that out yet; we were there for lunch, not dessert.) What caught me first is that the logo sign inside is exactly what Yelp events want. I told them about potentially hosting Yelp events in the future... Anyway, the menu is straight Dominican Republic, and I enjoyed comparing the similarities and differences to my local Honduran restaurant. Some very authentic dishes on the menu here, lovingly and authenticly prepared. We started with a pair of empanadas for appetizer, the res and the pollo y queso. I'm an empanada snob but these have a nice balance of ingredients and flavors, good size for the price. While the mondongo intrigued me, I went with the equally intriguing Yaroa, a Dominican street food with meat and cheese on a bed of green plantains (or fries, if you prefer), topped with ketchup and white sauce. I'm not a ketchup person, but I wanted the dish exactly as it comes, and that's good because it tasted excellent as it came. And it arrived right as we finished the empanadas. The staff were very friendly, but a bit focused on kitchen operations; I did have to flag someone down at one point for a water refill. So that is the one imperfection in an otherwise wonderful experience, and not worth docking a star over. I would absolutely come back here again. The owner was talking potential redecoration, I was talking about trying other dishes - so there are convenient excuses moving forward. :)

This is a local hidden gem to me. Only locals know about…read morethis spot . I drive by this place again and again as it looks like any regular deli. You can sit down and eat. This is a hole in the wall deli , very small sits about 16 people .its not a fancy spot to dine. Regular deli fare . Now this is why this is a hidden gem to me. They have latin American food . Home cooked food .i did not know that. Why is this a secret man..I only found out from one of the local shops around there ,when I asked they guy "we're is a place that has home cooking around here?" He pointed me to this place..much traffic. It's always packed with families and the locals.it is a busy place at lunch time . Dig this ,for about 8 bucks you can have a little of everything .they are very generous with the portions . Raul is so generous that when I ordered a soup. "I said wow that soup was good Raul " "He said you want more at no extra cost" This is the service you would get at your moms house.almost as if you are family. He does the same with his Juices..you pay 2 Dollars and you get free refills. Really good family business serving this community in Rockland . I guess the secret is out .there is good Latin American grub at this deli ..

It feels comfortable, warm, and inviting, with a layout that works just as well for a casual dinner as it does for drinks. It is the kind of place where you can actually hear each other talk and enjoy your time without feeling rushed. I love this place!

Rainy days and tacos just make sense together…read more While driving near Nyack, NY, we stumbled across a small hidden gem called El Cuñao Taqueria & Deli tucked away from the busier stretch of Main Street. No frills, no flashy atmosphere -- just comida auténtica and seriously satisfying flavors. I ordered the carne asada nachos and an order of tacos al pastor, and both hit the spot perfectly. Fresh ingredients, bold flavor, and that classic street-style taco taste that instantly lifts your ánimo on a gloomy day. The nachos were loaded, cheesy, and packed with flavor, while the al pastor tacos were simple, fresh, and delicioso. And yes... we washed it all down with a Coke Zero in a glass bottle because somehow it siempre tastes better that way. Now, if you're looking for upbeat energy and polished service, este lugar probably isn't it. The staff seemed a bit inexperienced and lacked motivation. But where the service fell short, the kitchen absolutely delivered with authentic flavors and generous portions. Sometimes the best spots are the quiet little hole-in-the-wall places that let the food do all the talking.
