As a fellow Dominican I am very judgmental when it comes to Dominican restaurants and the way their food is cooked, but have to say the food here was pretty good. I had the stew goat, white rice and red beans with a papaya milkshake and 4 leche cake. The food was really welled seasoned and cooked perfectly. Even the rice was good, which is usually too soft, or grainy at other restaurants. The milkshake was really good. Would go back just for that honestly. The cake was okay, nothing to repurchase though. Staff was super nice. They do offer some tables to eat in, but I took my food to go. read more

I was super disappointed with my experience at the Boca Chica Restaurant. I love supporting local businesses within the community however I did not have the best experience at this place. They did not speak when I walked into the restaurant, no hello, how are you, nothing. I ordered pernil, rice and beans and oxtails rice and beans. She only gave 3 oxtails and filled my plate with rice, long with one spoonful of beans. THREE OXTAILS! On top of the food being cold, their attitudes were as well. When I got home, I can taste that the pernil was not well seasoned and tough. Will I be supporting this establishment again? Absolutely not. On top of me asking for a few more oxtails, I was told that I would have to pay 8 dollars! There are so many of these restaurants around town, you can find better quality food and service! Save your money guys. read more

Probably the only Dominican restaurant in Harrison. Excellent service and food. The place is super clean and the staff is so friendly. Having being born in the Dominican Republic, I know great Dominican cuisine when I taste it. Highly recommend this spot. No more trips to Patterson. Keep up the great service guys! read more

Food is good however the customer service is questionable. I asked the waitress if I can order a tres leches cake and she said "no, we don't carry that". Then, there was a long pause and I pointed at the cake and said "what's that?" And she replied with "that's four leches"... read more

Complete rip off.... $22 for chicken stew (three pieces of chicken, nearly all of it bones), 7 pieces of shrimp in garlic sauce, rice (ordered yellow, got plain), small tub of beans, and plaintains. Very overpriced for what was delivered. Very disappointed. read more

My favorite neighborhood restaurant. Average personal combos are $6 a plate while family style range from $15-$20, there is no better place to get quality and quantity home style food. Brush up on your Spanish because it will make ordering easier lol the women are all friendly and helpful. There are staples dishes such as pollo guisado "chicken stew", grilled chicken, beans, rice. The menu adds variety of dishes, just check their daily specials and full menu. I tried there breakfast for the first time today, I'm still asking myself why did it take me two years to discover this haha Dominican cuisine has quickly become my comfort food. read more

Great porkbelly. Other items have been a miss at times but overall it's a decent bronx style domincan buffet.

Had to give this restaurant a four star rating because the food was not hot. Otherwise, the flavor was very on- point and delicious. Restaurant was clean and service was friendly. Went here for Sunday lunch and ordered chicken stew , rice and beans, chicken, and vegetables; I was very pleased with the restaurant. For dessert, I ordered the tres leches and I did not like it at all, it wasn't homemade and was lacking the creamy and sweet leche taste...it was decent. Overall, very happy with choosing to eat here. read more

I ordered a tray of food from here and it never showed up. I called back a hour and 30 mins in and they told Me the delivery guy was 20 Mins away. Horrible service. read more

The restaurant's poor customer service makes me change my rating. Visiting in person can be brutal but I can still get an order in. After moving to calling in for delivery, the staff continue to hang up on me after hearing my accent. So messed up read more

My new favorite authentic Dominican restaurant. I use to have to travel a few towns away to find a good Dominican restaurant and alas one in town. Parking can be a huge hassle. If you live in town I recommend walking. On a few occasions I've come for the "tres golpes" after 9:30am and they've had none. Reason being is because this dish is made fresh and should be eaten right away. This is a Dominican breakfast consisting of a fried egg, mash plantains, fried sausage and fried cheese. The combo meals are also highly filling and at a decent pricing. For instance we've had the combo #1 fried meat with yellow rice, fries and 2 liter soda for $14. The inside is not huge. They have about four tables with two chairs for each table. On each occasion there the employees are so sweet. read more

It was mediocre, I had better. Will probably not go there again. I'm dominican and I'm disappointed. The ladies were nice and quick with their service. I had pernil, rice and spaghetti. The spaghetti had no favor and the pernil was dry i had to put lemon on it. read more

Very tasty Dominican cuisine. open from 6 am - 11 pm (later than most places in Harrison) they serve breakfast (ask for Tres Golpes) in the morning. The roasted chicken, ribs, and seasoned rice are amazing! They make good fresh fruit shakes to order. There are several tables, there is a pretty large menu, some of the food is in warmers you can point at what you want if that makes it easier. The place is quite clean, there is a TV. They deliver for orders over $10. This place just opened I hope it catches on the food is very good!! read more

I was looking for a new Latino restaurant close to home since my favorite spot in Bayonne is closed. This place had good Yelp reviews so we decided to try it. It's good sized and they had a good selection of prepared food already. My Spanish is kinda choppy but I was able to get my order across and pointing worked also. LOL. They do speak English. The food was delicious. It was authentic (like when you visit your Dominican abuela's house). I ordered stew chicken, rice and peas, and sweet plantains. The chicken was perfect. Seasoned nicely while falling of the bones. They didn't have stew beef but I can't wait until they do. They had a few pork dishes and roasted chicken. My GF ordered a tres leches cake which I will assume was good because she demolished it! I will return! read more

I live in newark ironbound area and there is NO Dominican spot around so i took my chances to see if they deliver to my area and Yes they did. Not only was i happy but the Food was Amazing i have been craving Pollo guisado (chicken stew) with Rice and beans and some fried plantains and it was so good. The amount of food was a-lot for me due to the fact that i have weight-loss surgery, but the portion is good enough to make one person full. The price was also not bad either!! offically my new-spot to order from. read more

This place really surprise us. The service were awesome. The lady called Nayeli, she treated you as a king, she advice you with all recommendations(first time we were there) explaining to you about Dominican food in the menu what to choose according to the number of people, prices, and full of attention to you. We choose for a plate that it comes with three different tips of meat called "picada" if I am not wrong. But in our table our friends choose for different plates that were good looking and awesome taste according to their comments. Price were really accesible, there were Dominican drinks also. Very good experience visiting this place. If I have the opportunity to come back I dint think twice about it. Thank you for trading us with all attention and respect. read more

I purchased a meal plan for my family. The food was absolutely delish. Definitely a place to buy from! Food was fresh and very tasty!

Wow wow wow. I wish I could get a place like this back in Miami! So after meeting several Dominican Uber drivers, my wife (also Dominican) began to wonder if there was a good Dominican restaurant around. So after a late evening yelp search, we landed here. We felt like we were back in the D.R. The staff was awesome and the food was even better. Stop in for yourself and get some authentic Dominican food! read more
