"Dominican restaurants used to be a predominant feature of Lower East Side dininig — and El Castillo is one of the few remaining, but luckily one of the best. Not only does it offer a classic Cuban sandwich, but it one ups that sainted formula with a Dominican sandwich, which flies paper Dominican flags. Fricasseed chicken and pork roast pernil also totally up to snuff, and the setting is diner-like and comfortable." - Robert Sietsema, Eater Staff
