They packed it up, and I was on my way. When I returned to my office, they had put in the wrong order. They gave me fried pork chicks with rice, instead of the Mofongo. I called and they apologized and stated that they were sending the order over immediately. The order never showed up. I waited over 2 hours, and my office is only 20 to 25 minutes away. I called back, and they have no record of anyone coming or of the initial conversation. This is absolutely ridiculous and I had asked about the order, while I was there. They confirmed and still gave me the wrong order. I'm done...hangry and done. Go at your own risk / discretion.

As a Puerto Rican this was my choice for an early dinner. The inside is absolutely stunning. The hostess greeted me and sat me down quickly. As I viewed the menu I was glowing with glee to see bacalaitos. Of course I ordered them and they were so crispy and so flavorful. I told myself eat only 2 but I ate 3. I also, ordered the mofongo because that is what they are known for. Wow, presentation is beautiful. It comes out in a pilon. I ordered the shrimp and criollo sauce. Wow, wow, wow! Really, this dish was so pallete pleasing. I felt like my mom cooked it. Yes, that good. The waiter was so nice and attentive. He recommended the sauce which fit perfectly with the shrimps. Overall, I loved this place. When I come back to visit I will return for more.

The flavors were rich, comforting, and straight-up authentic. You can taste the love in that food. And let's talk portions... they are NOT playing with you. I had enough leftovers to run it back for dinner later, and it still tasted just as good! The service? Super attentive and welcoming--exactly what you want when you're trying to sit, relax, and enjoy a good meal. And the decor is such a vibe--cute, cozy, and full of personality. Even the restroom had a unique touch... a big pot turned into a sink! Like... come on, that's creative Will I be back? Oh absolutely. Probably next month though, because it's about an hour drive for me--but listen... it's worth it. If you're ever in the area and craving real, authentic Dominican food... don't even think twice. Just go.

Great place to have a delicious Puerto Rican meal…read more Service was fast and efficient, no wait time when I arrived. Monday evening, holiday. Food was delicious, from appetizer to main entree. Recommendations were made and I went with all of them. Pork belly chunks that were seasoned with salt and pepper, and lemon was added afterward for a little more punch in the flavor. Shrimp creole was delicious. The red beans and rice mix makes you want to keep having more and mixing it all together gives you a flavorful punch in your mouth. Mofongo, aka , masked green plantains are only for those looking for something a little dry with flavor. Mines had steak and it was drizzled with mojito sauce and oil. Our server was excellent and recommended flipping it over to have the juice flow into the mofongo which she went ahead and did.. steak was well done and when mixed in had a great combination of flavor.. Ambiance feels like a local P.R spot, flags, art, music, and very fun ambiance. Enjoyed it. Definitely when I'm in the area will come again..

The food was mixed . - Alcapurrias : 5 stars crunchy, juicy, proper size and flavor. - pork chunks mofongo: 4 stars, great flavor. Huge pork portion. - shrimp mofongo creole sauce: 3 stars sauce was on the saltier side and once it reached the bottom of the mongo it was "just too much" - churrasco (kids): 3 stars. A bit overcooked (kid refused to eat it) but it was decent flavor and tenderness. - beans: 3 stars, too salty - white rice : 1 star, felt dry and grainy like day old rice from the fridge.
