El Manjar Dominicano

Terrible service, the guy working at the register was not friendly. Rolling his eyes as I approached, I ordered pickup and he completely forgot I was waiting right across from him. He told me to wait 3 minutes, I ended up waiting 20 minutes and got fed up. When I looked behind me my food was just sitting there and he was on his phone. He acknowledged his mistake and said ‘I knew someone asked me for something’. I was initially excited to come here because I’ve ordered this dish for takeout and it was exceptional. Even though the service was bad, I wouldn’t rate the food poorly unless it actually was. To my surprise the food was not tasty this time. The shrimp were hardly cooked. The mofongo didn’t taste fresh, the pork pieces were not tasty not fresh, they were more like scraps. I think it’s because I ordered much later in the day this time, my first experience ordering food from here I ordered right when they opened. The interior and atmosphere is very nice with decorations. Seating is available indoor and outdoor but neither are comfortable. Interior seating has stools and outdoor seating consists of hard metal chairs. If I return, I’d come back when they first open for the fresh food. Definitely not worth the 25 dollars I spent.

Love it, Best Dominican spot in Brooklyn. Food has authentic Dominican flavor. The place is super clean and the employees are very friendly. Beautiful little spot.

El Manjar Dominicano Layout/atmosphere *Lucheonette/steam trays; five seat wall counter; tables on sidewalk Food/drink *Chicharron with yellow rice, black beans & sweet plantains - Good; chicharron had crunch, wasn’t too greasy or too dry

Best Dominican food in Brooklyn. The staff is super friendly and the food is amazing. If you want good Dominican food you must try this place.

If you’re having a bad day, get up and pick up the lunch special. You will feel the sweet embrace of simple, delicious food. Also if you eat normal person portions you’ll most likely have enough leftovers for dinner, all for very cheap.

You should feel blessed and Highly favored that you get to experience this Culinary introduction to Dominican Culture at its best. Its always Fresh and amazingly Tasty. The owners treat you like family when you walk thru the doors. Please try everything you cannot be disappointed, take it from me I eat lunch from here nearly everyday and it just taste better and better every time. My favorites are the Salmon with any choice of rice and beans don't forget my sweet plantains. If you read all of this please go make your taste buds happy.

Food was bangin’, and the price was *muah* excellent- you can not go wrong with that.

Very nice. My chrispy pork, moro and, plátanos were very flavorful. I had a small size. 🤷🏽‍♀️ Spanish food can kill you. 😁
