Located on the corner of Rockaway Beach Blvd, this quaint wine bar offers tranquility (at least when I visited) and a cozy atmosphere. Upon both visits, I chose to sit in their charming, pebbled ground backyard patio. It resembled something residential--very cute. Though we only made a quick pit stop to enjoy an ice cold Bud Light on a hot summer day, it was time well spent. They serve a variety of drinks with a smile. FYI, don't know if they serve food or bites. Adorable spot whether you're on the way to/from the beach.

I had a cremant de Loire and wife a New Zeland Sauvignon Blanc. A party took up the back yard, so snagged on of the 5 tables a gross from the 8 seat bar. The proprietress (I guess) took my Oder at the bar and brought bottles out to pour at the table. Casual and fun. We'll be back. (Took me 29 years to visit Rockaway, but....) menu is small, looks good, but we didn't partake. Just right for what we needed.

We started with the ceviche, which was very good. I personally would have liked a little more lime, and I think having a spicy option would be a great touch. A little more of the base/sauce on the plate would have made it even better. We also ordered the chaufa and the half chicken, and both were excellent. My mom had the salmon, which she really enjoyed, and my daughter ordered the lomo saltado. The lomo was tasty, although I felt it could have come with a little more meat considering the price. Our waitress Odimar was awesome and really helped make my mom's birthday dinner special. We also had the chance to meet the owner, who came by the table to say hello -- very nice touch! Although... you did promise us shots! It's okay, we'll collect them next time! The entertainment was another highlight of the night. They had live music with Ricky Roma, and WOW -- he was so good! During his break they played some awesome Afro House, which I absolutely loved. The music and atmosphere really added to the entire experience. It is a bit on the pricey side, but overall I thought the food, atmosphere, service, and entertainment made it worth it. We had a great night and will definitely be back!

I searched Yelp for Dominican restaurants and came across El Campeón de Los Pollos--and we were definitely not disappointed! I was especially impressed by how clean the restaurant was. The food was beautifully displayed buffet-style, and everything looked fresh and appetizing. You order and pay at the register, and they serve your food on a tray with your drink. I ordered a lunch with a drink for $16.33, which I thought was very reasonable considering how expensive everything is nowadays. The food was good, the portions were satisfying, and even the bathroom was very clean--which honestly made me happy! I would definitely come back. My only complaint is that it's a little far from me! But if I'm in the area again, I'll definitely stop by.

It's right in front of a bus stop and next to a school. There were so many options. I settled for Combo 2, which includes 1 whole chicken, rice, beans, small salad and soda. The chicken was a bit dry and the pieces were huge. The rice and beans were really tasty, the beans had so much flavor. The salad was simple and small. I tried the Colombia coke and it was a cream soda, very refreshing with the meal. I also ordered a medium oxtail with rice and it was $14. The huge amount was pretty worth it. They didn't skimp on the oxtail. It was more on the saltier side, but still very tasty. I will come again when I'm in the neighborhood and tried their soup. Next time I might even get a small size to try a bunch of other options.
