"Sabor Dominicano serves up dishes like mofongo (mashed plantains) with shrimp or chicken, pollo guisado (braised chicken), and hearty rices dishes served with chicken, shrimp, or a seafood mix. But head in for the sancocho, often served on Saturdays. It’s a savory and comforting stew containing chunks of beef and beef flank and pork, corn cobs, and plantains." - Eater Staff

I’ve discovered this hidden gem as me & my Family had started to eat Lunch today. We initially had planned to eat at the Vietnamese Restaurant next door, but I’ve decided to see what this Dominican Restaurant was all about, & I don’t regret coming here one bit. The Owner & Staff immediately greeted us with Friendly service. The Staff spoke great English, which was also helpful. The Food looked great, it was seasoned very well, & that Dominican Food was great. Customer Service was great! We were visiting ATL from NC, & this restaurant was our last stop. It was the best meal that I’ve ever had in ATL. The Atmosphere was great, the Restaurant was clean, & the Food Portions was plenty. The Waitresses were very nice & friendly. I definitely would visit whenever I come back to ATL. If you’re looking for a Great Dominican Food in the ATL, then come here, & you won’t be disappointed. Muchas gracias for making my ATL Trip a very special one. 👍🇩🇴

The ladies here have hearts of gold; they treat you with so much love and respect. The food is delicious; portions are generous and well-priced. It truly feels like I'm back in the DR. I come here often. Conveniently located behind Plaza Fiesta "El Rinconcito."

This is my favorite Spanish spot in the Atlanta metro area. I'm Dominican, so my standards are pretty high. This is no different than cooking at home. It's a hidden gem you must visit!

I love Dominican food. But their food gave me diarrhea!!!! They must not be clean or hygienic. BEWARE!! Me dieron diarrhea horrible no creo que sean de gente limpia. Ya no vuelvo comprar aqui. No wonder the cash register girl got an attitude like please don't eat the food.

By far the best Dominican food around. The chicken stew with yellow rice and side salad is under $8 after tax! Hay una locura!

Amazing dominican food. Came around lunch time after reading some reviews and opted for the lunch special as it was my first time trying Dominican food. It's a very casual laid back spot and the lunch special is served on a buffet line where you can choose from your entree and sides. 1 opted for the stewed chicken with rice and side salad. The portions were plentiful and everything was beyond flavorful. Staff were super friendly and greeted me as soon as I walked in and thanked me for visiting. Can't wait to go back and try some other menu items

Being a native New Yorker from Washington Heights, I grew up on Dominican food. Good Dominican food. Their food is good, really good. I had their oxtails, they were tasty, not salty but tasty, the rice was fluffy. Excellent serving, the young lady that served me was very hospitable. The restaurant is cozy and clean. If you're looking for a quick bite to eat, check them out.

My favoriteeeeee food place! Authentic Dominican food! It reminds me of being back home in NY! I highly recommend if you enjoy Spanish food to come here & have lunch! Amazing! Every single time! They have a buffet hot & ready for you everyday. However, i sit down & get something from their menu. Service is always great & they're friendly. It is a mom & pop place so it gives you a home feel almost like somewhere in the Dominican Republic. I LOVE their food each & every time i go. Spanish ambiance & vibe for sure. 100% recommend! I do wish they would bring back their tres leche cake!! It was absolutely amazing!!! I would get a few slices everytime! I didn't take a photo of my snapper fish but i do get that with garlic sauce & sometimes plain .. 10/10!!!

One thing about Buford hwy.... You want authentic food...Buford's Got It! This place SCREAMS AUTHENTIC! It's not so much the atmosphere...it's the customer service!! Match that will flavorful, savory food...they are a winner in my book! You get to see the food! Buffet style...yet closed to the public. You choose..they serve. I love that! All the meat looks delicious as hell! It's hard to choose. I went with the chicken served with rice@ peas & a salad. My man decided on the ribs. We shared. Both dishes were delicious. For our drinks we ordered passion fruit juice. Best of all...the prices! Very reasonable ya'll. You want authentic Dominican food...COME HERE! You'll thank me later.

I've come twice already with my family and really love it. It can get busy so service can be a little slow but nothing bad. We get the medium size plate of picada I think that's what it's called and it's the perfect amount for my husband my 5 year old and me. Definitely recommend this place. Authentic Dominican food.

The food was great. The staff was very nice and friendly. I can see myself and family getting food from here again. They did run out of rice and beans around 7pm and the flan wasn't nice and smooth. It was off for some reason that why this place didn't get 5 stars.

Best Dominican Food In Atlanta , I'm from NY and this one of the best I've had and I can't wait to come back again and again and again !!

Delicious food, but be careful about the menu prices. We ordered off of the current menu, and when the bill came out, each dish was more expensive than advertised. One item increased more than $5 from the menu price. I checked the menu and noticed the difference, at which point the owner was called over to correct the bill. He was apologetic and fixed it. The owner clarified they have ordered new menus to reflect the price change. However, if I didn't check the price after paying, I don't think the restaurant would have notified me of the price difference. I wonder how many patrons have overpaid for their meals based on the current menus available in the restaurant. I recommend eating here, but wait at least a few weeks to months for the new, updated menu to arrive. Otherwise, ask your server what the true price is for each item, or compare the bill to the menu before paying. To the restaurant: Consider printing temporary menus that reflect an accurate price. While the food is delicious, it doesn't feel good to be deceived by the restaurant I'm visiting.

I've been looking for Dominican food since I came to Atlanta and I came across this place on Yelp. The workers were really friendly and welcoming. I got the pollo guisado and was skeptical but I was pleasantly surprised that it lived up to expectations. If you're coming from the melting pot that is the northeast like me where this kind of food is more accessible, you won't be disappointed!

My coworker recommended this place and I followed him here for lunch. I never had Dominican Food but I am done to try anything new. The place had a decent crowd and it looked like we just missed the lunch crowd at 1:30pm. They have a buffet looking selection where you pick a meat, kind of rice, and kind of veggie. I picked the beef, brown rice with beans, and green salad. I sat down and went to town. The rice here is excellent. Reminds me a little of the Mexican rice. The beef had a small curry taste to it. I thought the food would be spicy but it wasn't spicy at all. I loved the taste of beef and rice. I actually really loved the rice here. The employees were super friendly and helpful. I can't wait to come back and try out different foods.

Mediocre and not consistent! Don't fall for the review and enter a code scam for $ off future purchase! They do not honor and have a nasty attitude when you ask.

Mi familia y yo manejabamos desde Nashville hasta Clearwater Florida para vacacionar. Buscamos en Google restaurantes Dominicanos en Atlanta y nos encontramos con Sabor Dominicano. Fuimos, comimos y no pudimos quedar mas encantados. La comida tipica Dominicana estuvo exquisita. El Rabo ( Oxtail ) ha sido uno de los mejores que he probado en mi vida. Se derrite en tu boca. El servicio y las atenciones tambien estuvieron muy a la altura. Fue tanto asi que de regreso nos paramos a comer otra vez. Recomendamos al " Sabor Dominicano" plenamente.

The food will not make up for the inconsistency in service at this restaurant. I am complete fan of Dominican cuisine but will not accept or tolerate the culture of disrespect and hate towards customers. After enjoying my meal , I proceeded to pay for my bill and was met by incompetence from the cashier whom did not know how to properly use their cash register. Maintaining my patience because she was clearly displaying child like behavior, she proceeded to dismiss me as if I were bothering her. Uncalled for an inexcusable treatment. I don't recommend customers eating here.

The food is excellent. I have been craving this since I first tasted it. The rice is flavorful and the plátanos maduros is very well done. This is easily a new staple for me.

You can find Sabor Dominicano at 4186 Buford Hwy NE Ste M, Atlanta, GA 30345 in the same shopping center as Pho Dai Loi 2. This is just up the hill and north of Plaza Fiesta. Parking can be a bit of a challenge as there are several businesses that feed into the same lot - best to go on slightly off times. Late night Sabor becomes a disco, I believe as there's a DJ booth (but that may just be on the weekends) - something that's rather common in restaurants on Buford Highway, especially closer towards Atlanta. I met a few friends as part of my Buford Highway Restaurant Crawl group - besides offering up some rather authentic Dominican cuisine, the restaurant has a pretty awesome buffet (1-4 I believe) - in the evenings it starts to wind down but for lunch there's some great eats at very reasonable prices. They typically have Bacalao (salted cod) and boiled yucca on the buffet. If you're in a group order the appetizer platter - you'll enjoy an assortment of flavors so you'll get to sample a lot of what Dominica has to offer. The people here are really nice and good about describing the various dishes. My favorite time to come is during lunch after 1:00 - it's definitely a winner and you don't get stuck trying to find a parking space. I think everyone enjoyed the food quite a bit.

I have to say I don't think i've ever had Dominican food until paying Sabor Dominicano Restaurant a visit, so I was super excited to give this place a shot. Sabor Dominicano gives you choices...do you want to order off of their menu or would you like to give their buffet a shot? I took the middle ground and did a little of both, getting a buffet entree order, and a few snacks off of their menu. Their buffet had several meats to choose from, including beef, pork, two types of chicken, a few sides and salad, and you can get a meat, rice, beans and a salad off the buffet for $7! I ordered one chicken entree, which came with 3 pieces, rice, pinto bean soup and a side salad (house dressing). Serving sizes here were hefty, the chicken was tender but the sauce on the chicken was just okay to me. I will say the house dressing, which is made fresh daily, was delicious and enjoyed! The beans and rice were both fine. Off menu, I ordered one of their kipe ($2) and a beef pastelito ($1.50). The pastelito is a fried pocket of goodness, with flavored ground beef, and I enjoyed it! The kipe (pronounced "key pay") is also a fried almost hush puppy snack that I really couldn't place in terms of flavor or what was in it. One drawback of Sabor Dominicano is the staff aren't really descriptive when explaining what's on the buffet line. The chicken is just chicken, the beef is just beef. What kind of chicken? What's the sauce? Some of their menu items list the items but don't describe it, and when they're busy (they were super busy this day) it can be challenging to quiz them about what this or that dish is. Located in the same strip that houses Pho Dai Loi off of Buford Highway, parking is shared and can be cramped, but we all found spots. Getting out onto Buford Hwy isn't so bad in either direction as well. Sabor Dominicano is a nice find and a good experience to try dominican food. For the price and amount of food you get, it's a worthy lunch spot!

Sabor Dominicano is a Dominican restaurant located inside the same strip mall (Saigon Center) as Pho Dai Loi 2, next to Plaza Fiesta on Buford Highway. This restaurant opened in 2014. I've eaten at plenty of Caribbean restaurants around town, but this was my first time at a Dominican-specific restaurant. I've been to the Dominican Republic, but I'm still definitely not well-versed on the food. That said, I think this place seems pretty authentic. The dishes I tried were hit or miss. This is a small restaurant with seating for about 40 customers (indoor seating only). The dining room is basic and no-frills with TVs and DR-themed decor on the walls (e.g. flags, artwork). There is what looks like a DJ booth in one corner and with the speakers and special lighting, it's safe to assume this place also hosts (or hosted) dance parties. The festive music was cranked up during our Sunday lunchtime visit. It was busy. You can order off the buffet or the menu. We checked out the buffet. There was a bit of a language barrier between us and our server, so we weren't able to get the best descriptions of the items on the buffet. As best I could tell, the buffet consisted of items like white rice, red beans, and a variety of meat dishes containing chicken, beef, and pork. There was also oxtail, chicken soup with vegetables, yuca, potatoes, and salad. Everything on the buffet looked fresh. Buffet pricing varies depending on what you get. To give you an idea, one of my friends ordered rice, beans, chicken, and salad, and it was $7. Not bad. The menu has little to no English descriptions of some items. Hopefully, this review will help a little bit. There are appetizers like yuca chulitos (cassava rolls), pastelitos (folded pastries with cheese and meat filling), kipes (or kibbehs, bulgur rolls), tostones (fried plantains), and maduros (made from ripe plantains). There are sandwiches (e.g. chicken, ham and cheese, steak), salads, and soup. Meat entrees include varieties of chicken and steak. They've got different mofongo (fried plantain dish) and rice plates as well as various seafood such as shrimp, lobster tail, and platters containing those items along with crab legs, oysters, calamari, and fish. Desserts include flan, arroz con leche (rice pudding), and habichuelas con dulce, which is a Dominican sweet bean dessert. The food is affordably priced with most non-seafood dishes under $10 each and soups and most seafood entrees under $15 each. $5.99 daily lunch specials are available weekdays from 11am to 4pm and include pig feet, pig liver, chicken gizzards, baked chicken, stew, and spaghetti. Beverage-wise, they serve beer ($4), soda ($1), and various tropical fruit juices ($2.50-$3.00) like tamarindo (tamarind), maracuya (passion fruit), guanabana (soupsop), and morir soñando, which is a sweetened iced milk and orange juice that is popular in the DR. I tried a variety dishes. I thought the pastelito ($1.50) and kipe ($2) were A-OK. The pastelito was small with a nice crust and hot, savory filling. Kipe actually originates from Mediterranean cuisine. It wasn't bad and makes for a decent crunchy/soft app/snack. From the buffet, I tried two types of chicken. Both were served bone-in. The first one was chopped and covered in a savory red sauce. The second was more like a rotisserie-style roasted chicken. The roasted chicken was better. One of my friends ordered the pernil (Puerto Rican slow-roasted marinated pork shoulder) and steamed yuca from the buffet and the food looked terrific. She said they were good. I sampled two soups. One was sancocho, from the buffet. This soup cost about $10-11. The portion size was big and came with a side of white rice. The rice, by the way, is slightly salted (it's tasty). Sancocho is considered a national dish of the DR. Sabor Dominicano's version contained chunks of bone-in chicken, corn on the cob, carrots, potato, and I think plantains. This soup was hearty, filling, and delicious. The other soup I tried was also thick and hearty. It was a chicken and rice stew with lots of a rice in an orange-red broth. It was alright. The rice soaked up a lot of the broth. Corn, carrots, peas, and green beans, that looked like they came from a frozen bag, were added on top. I had the mofongo and it tasted fantastic. However, it was also very greasy and I couldn't finish it for that reason. The mofongo was quite flavorful and was freshly prepared with lots of garlic and chicharron (crunchy bits of pork skin). The mofongo also came with a side salad (from the buffet), broth, and another type of chicharron (this time, morsels of deep-fried bone-in pork). Like the rice, the salad (lettuce, tomato, cucumber, onion, dressing) was salted. The bone-in chicharron was tasty, but fatty and oily. Again, I couldn't finish it for the same reason as the mofongo. My mango juice was very sweet and yummy, though I'm not sure it was fresh. It may have come from a can. Service was friendly.

I'm between 3 and 4 on this one. Food was 4+ but the language barrier and the lack of ambiance made it a 3. I visited this restaurant with a group of like minded yelpers for a Sunday brunch UYE. There is a parking lot but it was quite full and I had a hard time finding a spot. The restaurant is small and basic in it's decor. There is a buffet counter and a small bar off to the side, serving beer and wine only. We had the option to order off the menu or go for the buffer. I couldn't decide so I did both =) The buffet comes with sides but I was able to order just the meats since I went with paella for my off the menu dish. The two meats I chose were chicken gizzards (excellent) and pig feet (good but mostly bone, not much to eat meat-wise). The paella for one took a while to come out but that was kind of expected. This dish was HUGE. I had leftovers for days. It was also delicious. The one disappointment was the fact that there were all of these various yummy crabs in it but no crackers to get to the meat. They just don't carry them. Makes me wonder if they only use crab claws for decoration purposes. Overall: great food, friendly service but quite a language barrier. Would definitely recommend checking it out.

Great Dominican food! They have the best paella in the area, and at such a cheap price -$15 ish per person with half a lobster inside :) it took a while for them to make it, but that makes the the paella fresh and authentic. The soup and tostones are fresh and tasty as well. Overall we had a great experience. But I would definitely recommend coming with someone who speaks Spanish if you don't speak it yourself.

Very tasty food. The meals are a little expensive for what they give. Definitely bring a native speaker with you if you go.

Food was mediocre. There were not many options for non-meat eaters. The options that they had didn't look appetizing. I went with cheese empanadas. They were ok. It was great catching up with Yelp buddies but this spot was not my cup of tea ‍

The place was full of great food and music. Had a great overall vibe but some of the meat was a bit flavorless.it was also a bit overpriced

Mediocre overpriced food. $15 dollar a dish mostly with rice and beans isn't honest business. I'd call this deceiving marketing.

Most amazing mofongo EVER!! Everything we ordered was delicious. Great authentic flavor and I was raised in Puerto Rico. The churrasco is also delicious. The bacalao is so tasty as well. Just everything is delicious. I cannot wait to go back. I was doubtful at first until I took my first bite. Just amazing!!!

I'm not well versed in Dominicano food but I enjoyed my experience! My Dad has been to the Dominican a few times and just wanted to talk to the server about what he remembered about his time there. The server was very friendly and accommodating to the many questions my Dad had, not about the menu but just about the Dominican. Ordered: Sweet Plantains Green Plantains Pastelitos - one each of Cheese, Ground Beef, and Chicken Shrimp Mofongo with Coconut sauce Sweet plantains and green fried plantains seemed standard me to. I don't recall having ones that really varied in flavor as long as they were fresh and these were. Pastelitos - These are empanadas, a stuffed bread or pastry baked with filling inside. I preferred the cheese and the ground beef. The shredded chicken wasn't my favorite but maybe I just couldn't taste it after my mofongo. My toddler enjoyed them as well and some of the plantains. Shrimp Mofongo with Coconut sauce - Ok, so I've never had this dish and wanted to try it because of a joke made on a radio program I listen to. Mofongo is a fried and mashed plantain. This one was shaped like a bowl and placed on top of fresh lettuce and onions, then had this red coconut sauce with Shrimp (I ordered shrimp). I personally really enjoyed this dish. It is quite sizable and definitely feels like comfort food. I shared some with my baby and brought half home. Bathrooms - There's 2 single bathrooms with no baby changing stations. Bathrooms are quite humid but seemed clean. I didn't look at it because I knew I couldn't eat enough but there is also a lunch buffet with quite a selection.

The food here is so good! You should definitely check it out! The ribs are bomb the gravy is so good! Definitely will be back......

Good food. Good service. If I wasn't allergic to bananas I'd definitely come back. I have never had Dominican food before so when there was an opportunity to try this place out I said sure. I got the sancocho which is a soup dish served with rice. There was beef, pork, corn on the cobb and plantains. It was delicious....except I didn't know plantains were part of the banana family and I'm allergic.....it tasted like potatoes actually so that was what I thought it was...... The place is small and has a nice cozy family feel to it which I like..... Most of the menu was not in English but our waiter was super patient and kind to explain everything to us... If you like Dominican food or are in the mood for something new to add to your culinary palette then this is a great place.....

Whoever said that Sabor Dominicano Restaurant is a Caribbean buffet is a huge lie. The thing is that I even asked the ladies if this is this buffet. They said yes, this is buffet. To me, buffet means all you can eat any dishes you want for one set price. Not only that, it means you get to serve yourself. I was like maybe this is how Dominicans do it. However, I went to a Caribbean buffet before in Marietta called Tassi Roti Shop and their buffet is the same way I would think too but not at Sabor. Before I get into actually getting the food, I stood there for a good 20 mins before someone helping me. First I didn't see any workers where the food is. It looked cafeteria style. Two other customers were also there but seemed like they were already helped. The workers all have limited English. Before I ordered anything, I did ask if it is buffet. She said yes but I can order something from the menu too if I wanted to. Because I love chicken, I wanted chicken. I didn't want any rice and got steamed yucca. Plus I wanted to try the pork ribs. I did want to try more dishes but I thought since it is buffet I could go back and get more. I was wrong. Luckily, I was full but I think it's also because I wasn't happy with the service or food. There was also a bug in my water so decided to get a drink instead and got passion fruit. The chicken was bland, nothing special. The pork ribs were a little salty. The yucca is just plain, I like fried yucca, not steamed, so stringy! Sorry but I love Caribbean food at Tassi Roti Shop and I was expecting the taste and buffet styles the same. I know Caribbean is a broad cuisine, it's like saying Asian when I'm at a Korean restaurant and still say Asian at a Vietnamese restaurant. To be fair, Tassi Roti Shop is Trinidad and Tobago while Sabor Dominico is Dominican. I do love Jamaican food too. I'll have to say that I'm not a fan of Dominican food. I mean, I just find it okay. I've had better food elsewhere, just saying. 68/2017

OMG This was soooooo amazing!! I ordered mangu and bacalao. Uugghh I wish this restaurant was by my house They server was nice and they give you plenty of food.

STAY AWAY!!! Food was nasty, the Mofongo was elastic with El bistec ensebollado came out cold (looked and tasted precooked and reheated in microwave), it was sent back and not a couple minutes later a new one came out (they claimed they made a new one, it tasted the same. The rice was bland and old, the kipes were not cooked throughly. Brought out warm drinks with no ice. The server could not understand what we were asking for in either English or Spanish. Worst part was at the end, when heading to the bathroom, walked by the open closet/freezer across from the bathroom which had a bucket filled with water and the sancocho vegetables on the dirty floor.

Delicious. Will return. I ordered beans, rice and veggies to go. The food was fresh and seasoned perfectly. I was just craving Dominican beans and rice today, but will go back to try other things.

Dominican food in Atlanta, I was ready! Can I just say I am happy I made it here. I was there and it brought me back to my days growing up on the lower east side of Manhattan with tons of Latin food experiences. I left out of here a very happy camper. There is a full menu and a buffet option. I selected the buffet for one reason and one reason only. I am of lover of salted cod fish. Puerto Ricans/Dominicans call it Bacalao, Caribbean folks call it Saltfish, I call it the most wonderful thing in the world and if its on the menu, I'm getting it. Its not a buffet you can help yourself and it appears the price will change depending on what you get. For example I got a full serving of the Bacalao and a small piece of Baked Chicken and I was charged $1 for the chicken on top of the Bacalao. It also comes with rice, beans, and a potato salad combo that also has a separate charge. It sounds like a lot but really I had a full plate of food and two sodas for $12. It is without a doubt reasonable. The options included backed and stewed chicken, ribs, black and red beans, white rice and some other items. I was definitely happy with the choice. John E. got the buffet as well as cleaned his plate. Even those who ordered off the menu were very happy and the portion sizes were great. We all were full! The food was awesome. Flavorful and get portion size. I was at the table with 8 people and we ordered the large appetizer platter. It was a platter of surprise. Every time you picked up something it was something different. Between cheese, cooked salami, chicken, tostones, fries, pork. It was great! We all ate from it, there was some left over and it made up full heading into our meal. But that in no way stopped me. I will definitely be back! There is a lunch buffet option for I believe $6. If I worked closer I would be there like it was my kitchen!

At first place was good but after the second and third time it's just not a Santek it taste pretty Americanized and it seems like they're short staffed just like everybody else which is understandable but you need to treat people a little better no matter the ethnicity

I'm Dominican and had just returned from DR. So, I thought the reviews were over-exaggerated hype, but no! They were truths! We had the fried and the coconut salsa red snapper - both were . The vegetable rice, delishhh. I'm a believer!

In a very very very shady plaza but the food there is perfect. I love their Morongo and my husband called it delicious unknown carbs lol.

I came here hoping to try some good Latin food. This was the worst I've ever been to. There was a fly on the lemon they served my water with, the steak was nasty, and the rice was undercooked. The entire time some dude was there harassing the waitresses. I came for the food and I can say I've had a better experience at food truck than this place

I love this restaurant my go to place when I'm craving food from back home. There is a lot of food choices to pick from between the hot bar and menu. The staff is extremely nice and attentive.

This Dominican restaurant is what you would call a hole in the wall type of place. With that said the food is a good representation of what Dominican food taste like. Their selection is not grand but what they do have is well done. The food is priced fairly and the portions are generous. Over all a good place to have a nice presidents beer and listen to some bachata, merengue or regueton!

Not much to say but SAVE YOUR MONEY. I cannot believe the people's review stating how Delicious the food is. You guy's are entitled to post that. Maybe your related to owners. If your looking for Good Spanish Food i suggest you keep looking because this is NOT the place. One good thing very nice staff.

This was sooooo good! Food was fresh, not too greasy, inside was clean, and the price was right! I got a chicken and beef empanada, plantains, and yellow rice. Probably will be my new lunch spot! Staff was nice as well.

I'm Haitian, so naturally I'm in love with Caribbean food. If I'm ever homesick and not in the mood to drive 45min to Lawrenceville for Haitian food, Sabor is my go to. It's a small restaurant located in a strip mall on Buford Highway (where Pho Dai Lo 2 is located); it's easy to miss. Parking is shared with the rest of the mall, but I have never had any issues finding a spot. Inside is a fairly average, small restaurant with lively music. Their is a full menu available but I almost always order from the pre-prepared buffet. Their portions are large (lunch could carry over to dinner) and their food is delicious. Choose from white rice or rice and peas and a variety of meats and vegetables. I usually get the rice and peas with the baked chicken and a side salad. The best part is, all that food comes out to like $8-$10.

Horrible! My 1st and last time here. We ordered to-go. I should've checked my food before leaving. The chicharron de pollo was beyond overcooked.. it was burnt and not edible. Shocked that they allowed it to leave the kitchen and into a customers hands. The mofongo was so dry I could barely swallow it. My husband and I had to go back out to get food because we just couldn't eat this food. Never again!
