Our food came out within a reasonable amount of time and it was freshly prepared. Everything I had was so delicious, I certainly have to go back to try some other things. My daughter and I started with a pitcher of red sangria which was the best I've ever had. Our food was Gambas Al Ajillo (sautéed shrimp), Ragut de Setas (sautéed mushrooms) and a board (I don't remember the name) which contained fried cheese, chicken strips, fried pork chunks, empanadas and more. We had plenty to take home! The atmosphere was nice. I really liked the booths.

There were about 3 customers ahead of me getting their "usual" which was a good sign. The portions are pretty generous! I got the arroz con gandules, pernil, and biste for $16. PERFECTION! The tournament is again next year so I know where I will be coming to eat.

I first discovered Punta Cana on DoorDash many months ago, and have loved it ever since! Today was…read moremy sister, niece, and my own first time visiting the restaurant in person. Note that if you aren't familiar with the location, you might miss it as there's no major signs from the road. But it's inside the same complex of a lightbulb store and hair salon, with plenty of parking! Though a small restaurant front, it's kept very clean with a humble but inviting ambiance. Food is almost served cafeteria style for their staples: arroz con guandules, pernil, carnitas, plantains, etc. Their deep fried foods (e.g. empanadas, yuca frita, etc) are in a little heater fridge. I've tried their weekend specials like chivo (goat stew), but my absolute favorite dish to get is the tres golpe! This they made fresh upon order! Though tres golpe is commonly had for breakfast, I love having it any time of the day given that it's savory and plentiful in portion! It includes two pieces of fried cheese, fried salami, fried egg, and the best mangu (mashed plantains) I've ever had! Pair it with a freshly made cup of morir soñando? You're set. This is my favorite Dominican spot and I highly recommend it! They do well with ordering for pickup and food keeps well even when you order delivery! Though my brother-in-law is Puerto Rican and not Dominican, he will sometimes crave food from the Caribbean. He argues this spot has food that is probably the closest thing you can get to eating directly on the island itself! Staff were very kind and, as a previous reviewer pointed out, fluent in both English and Spanish. When we visited in-person, the restaurant was clearly a popular spot for folks in the community to pick up food to-go for lunch! I highly recommend you try this place out and support this local business!

I would probably not order the cod fritters again as it didn't really do anything for me, and would get the patatas bravas with extra sauce. The service was great and the whole experience felt cozy since it's BYOB and a smaller space. Unfortunately it's probably not a great spot for groups bigger than 4 just given the size but perfect for a casual date night or catch up dinner with a few friends!

LOCATION: This new location sits on the second floor of a building. Steps are pretty narrow, so I can't imagine the elderly being able to climb a flight and a half of steps to enjoy such delicacies. So the new location is absolutely beautiful and more fancy than their old location. I love the ambiance. I went there on a Saturday at approximately 4:00 p.m. and there was Zero clientele. It seems like this place may have lost a lot of customers due to the location being on the second floor, but I could be wrong. I'll be honest, very clean, well lit with many slits of skyline above. I love the decor it still reminds me of Old San Juan, along with the Spanish music playing in the background. FOOD: amazing as always, even though I was struggling because they removed one of my favorite dishes from the menu, which was ropa Vieja. You get a lot of food on your plate, and all of the dishes are very flavorful and cook to order. CUSTOMER SERVICE: I love how attentive the staff were even though we were the only ones in the place. The waitress is very knowledgeable about the dishes and extremely accommodating. I wanted something simple to drink like a lemonade, and they made me some from scratch, so I was so thankful. I would definitely recommend coming to this place if you're looking for authentic San Juan dishes

They are open until midnight and have a variety of foods that are already in a steam table prepared so you can eat quickly or you can order off the menu. The daughter is Naomi and she was our server and speaks English. I know a few words in Spanish, enough to order my food, but thankfully, Naomi spoke perfect English. It is a small place with a small parking lot. If you are looking for ambience, this is not an elegant restaurant, but more of an authentic feel. While we like elegance, we much prefer this home style experience. The service was quick, it was wonderful, and very helpful. They have juices made on premise. I had guava, and my husband had soursop. That cow foot stew was one of the best I have ever had anywhere. This is a little gem in Reading and in walking distance of the Santander arena and the Doubletree Hotel. This is a perfect spot if you happen to get into town late because most of the restaurants close very early. We arrived a little after 8 PM, and many things were already shut down and shuttered. El Tronco de Lily's to the rescue.
