    Stop by if you're looking for a quick bite and yummy Dominican food. Restaurant is located on the same block as Target. You have to take a big step up to get inside the door. When you walk in you order from one side and go down the line picking what you'd like to get from the food selection. Some items that were available today included plantains, white rice, arroz morro, beef stew, pernil, veggies, mangu, beans and chicharron. There is no menu so it's hard to tell what else is available besides what is on display. They do have the morir soñando drink which is like a creamsicle drink. You can pick anywhere to sit. The place isn't super spacious but good for families. If you're looking for no frills spot check this spot out!

    What a gem of a spot. Heard about this place from a cheap eats page and it absolutely delivered. There isn't a menu here - you pick two sides and a main course and it's one flat (very affordable) price and you're getting a butt ton of food. I tried my Spanish but the employees responded back to me in English unfortunately - I guess I gotta work on my gringo accent. However, the awesome guy who sat at my table didn't know English so I got to practice my very mid Spanish with him as I proceeded to be a big back and destroy the entire plate.

    I was pleasantly surprised by this location. My friend had recommended this place and I was a little skeptical about going. However, customer service was amazing. Every staff member was friendly and attentive. The food was so good, I couldn't put my fork down! I highly recommend.

    The chicken stew and cabbage side are soooo good, I could eat this everyday. Good portions for the price and the staff are really friendly. They are always playing good music too :)

    I tried their chicken empanadas which were great! Not too oily yet deliciously crunchy! The meat was also perfectly seasoned. I would definitely return to try some of their other options.

    Since I've moved to DC, I've been craving Dominican food! I'm coming from Boston and Dominican spots are very prevalent, so I ate Dominican food pretty regularly. I currently live in SE DC, so not very many Dominican spots near me. Most are across the city. I happened to be in the Columbia Heights neighborhood yesterday, and I remember a colleague telling me that would be a good neighborhood to check out Dominican food. She wasn't wrong. I pulled up google maps and noticed one within 5 minutes from me. I made my way over there! I will say there were a lot of food options when I arrived. This place is popular. In the half hour, I was there so many people came in and out. The line was moving kind of slow, though. There were only two women on the floor, but the food was worth the wait! I ordered arroz con gandules, pernil, platanos maduros, and a side of vegetables. They filled up my to go box, and the food was so good! The only point of criticism is that the food was a little too salty for me. I generally add salt to my food, but here they definitely season it a lot. If I lived closer to here, I'd def frequent this spot more, but at least, I know where to go whenever next I'm craving some Dominican food.

    Really Dank Dominican food!! So delicious and flavorful. There's lots of options on the menu. I tried the pulled pork. I will definitely bring trying other menu items! Definitely give this place a try! You won't regret it.

    The service & food here is always amazing but does anyone know if this restaurant is still open? I've tried calling for the last couple of days to put a catering order in and no one picked up the phone.…

    Yes, they are open. They never answer the phone but they are open and they have another location called Mechos off of New York Ave.

    Going to visit tonight. Where is the best place to park?

    Right around the corner is a parking structure for Target. Best place to park and short walk to Los Hermanos.

I do appreciate I can build my plate to my preference. Pictured was the combination pork (braised & pulled) over rice and beans topped with gravy. Be mindful if you do not eat or desire a lot of rice to let the staff know; otherwise, you'll get a healthy serving of rice with your meal. To date I've eaten nearly every option they serve which are simply delicious. This restaurant is good to visit for all hours throughout the day and evening. There is plenty of indoor and outdoor patio spacing to accommodate groups and their customers. The music varies but I've heard my share of bachata played over the speakers. The owners and staff are committed to serving their customers. I do believe this is a family owned and operated establishment. For the first timers visiting you may order similar from behind the counter similar to chipotle or order made to order menu options such as the coconut cream fried red snapper over rice. They also have tasty empanadas. Overall 4.4 out of 5

I Feel Blessed & Grateful That I Came Across It. This Is Authentic Dominican Food Made By True Dominicans, And You Can Taste The Love In Every Bite. It Really Brings A Piece Of The Island Right Here To Maryland Just Minutes From DC . Parking Is Limited, But There Are A Few Spaces Directly In Front Of The Restaurant. The Space Is Small & Intimate, But Very Welcoming. It's Only Been About A Year Since They Opened, But It Feels Like A Place That's Been Around Much Longer Because Of The Love And Energy Inside. The Customer Service Here Is Top Tier!! It's Owned By A Husband & Wife "The Medinas" They Are Truly Special. So Warm, So Kind, & So Genuine. They Make You Feel Like You're Being Welcomed Into Their Home For A Meal. The Service Is Full Of Love & Care, You Can Feel Their Passion In Everything They Do. That Alone Would Bring Me Back... And Then The Food Just Seals The Deal Even More. WHITE RICE , RED BEANS , AVOCADO & GRILLED SALMON {Build Your Own Meal} EVERYTHING About This Plate Was Perfect!!!!! The Rice Was Cooked Just Right With The Perfect Amount Of Salt. The Red Beans Were Rich, Flavorful, & Surprisingly Had No Meat, Which I Loved. *So Many Places Add Pork, But Here They Automatically Cater To Different Dietary Preferences Without Sacrificing Flavor.* The Grilled Salmon Was Cooked Exactly How I Requested, Honestly Even Better Than I Expected. The Attention To Detail Was Impressive. And Of Course, The Avocado Brought Everything Together For That Perfect Final Touch, I Left So Full & Satisfied. EXTRA SIDES: TOSTONES WITH GARLIC Double-Fried, Flattened Plantains Lightly Salted And Topped With Garlic Oil (I Requested This And They Delivered). So Good & Perfect With The Rice & Beans. FRIED PLANTAINS Made Exactly How I Like Them, Sweet, Perfectly Fried, & Not Overly Sweet. CHEESE EMPANADA OMG The Cheese Pull Was Insane. Crispy Outside, Loaded With Cheese Inside, They Did Not Skimp At All, So Delicious. MALTA I Had To Get A Malta, A Traditional Dominican Drink That Paired Perfectly With My Meal. Sweet, Rich, & So Satisfying. I Had To Try As Much I Could To See What I Would Like & Everything Was Amazing. I Was Overwhelmed Yet Beyond Satisfied. Literally Everything They Make Is Delicious. Super Reasonable Prices With Plenty Of Options. Some Food Is Ready Buffet-Style While Other Items Are Made To Order. You Can Dine In Or Take Out But I Highly Recommend Sitting Down & Enjoying The Full Experience If There's Available Seats. This Place Is Something Special. Authentic Dominican Flavors, Amazing Hospitality, & Food Made With Real Love. I'm Definitely Going To Be A Regular Here As Much As I Can.

Unfortunately, due to bad past experiences with mofongo from other places, I decided to skip the mofongo and go for a guisada (stew). Generally speaking the beef stew, which was served with beans and rice was decent. However, for my tastes, the stew seemed to be really greasy/fatty. I do not think that I ever had a guisado with so many fat droplets in the "soup". Also, I thought the beef was a bit tough/chewy for a stew; I was expecting the meat to be a bit more tender. While the stew was not horrible, I will say that I was a bit disappointed that I spent $20 on it. Since this is a Domincan restaurant, a little Spanish might go a long way. Overall, I thought the staff was nice. However, this appears to be a place where the staff knows a lot of the customers (or at least the Latino customers), so you might feel a bit like a persona non grata upon entry. However, they'll probably will warm up to you after a few minutes. While I somewhat enjoyed my stew, I really enjoyed my margaritas more. Since I'm still new to the area, I might check out some other Latin/Dominican restaurants before circling back around this restaurant.

Start with the Aloo and Channa pies and crab accras, order a cocktail early, and do not be surprised if your server is already one step ahead of you. We let Tim lead, which was the right decision. Not just knowledgeable, intuitive. The kind of service where you feel guided, not managed. He brought extra garlic aioli before we asked, we laughed, because he was absolutely right. That set the tone. The Aloo and Channa pies came out crisp and golden, with a filling that was warm, spiced, and balanced. Not heavy, not trying to prove anything, just well executed. The crab accras followed, light, clean fry, no grease, which matters. The sauces did their job. Each one added something instead of just sitting there looking pretty. Cocktails held their own. The West Indian Old Fashioned had depth without getting muddy. The Savannah was bright and easy in the best way. Together, they framed the food instead of competing with it. Then the Bake & Fish sandwiches. Solid on their own, but Tim brought lemon slices without prompting, and that was the move. That little hit of acid sharpened everything. Same intuition, twice. That's not luck. The kitchen shows restraint, which is where the confidence lives. This isn't "let's throw spice at it and call it Caribbean." The flavor is intentional, layered, and controlled. You can taste the difference. The only thing to know, the energy builds. What starts as dinner leans toward lounge as the night goes on. If you want quiet, time it right. If you want atmosphere, you're exactly where you should be. We will definitely be back.
