Reviews
The service was a strong point. Our server, I believe her name was Elba, was polite, kind, and attentive, which always makes a difference, especially on a chilly day when you just want to sit and warm up. My husband really enjoyed his sancocho and appreciated that they don’t add carrots (or potatoes), which we personally don’t like in sancocho. That alone made his dish a win.
My mondongo, on the other hand, was just okay. I would call it standard, but the flavor didn’t quite hit for me. I didn’t love the taste, and while I still ate it because we were hungry and cold, I’ve definitely had much better mondongo elsewhere.
Overall, the service was good and welcoming, which is why I’m giving this place four stars. The food was a bit uneven for us, but it’s still a solid spot for a warm meal and friendly service in the Bronx.
Egregiously poor customer service! Price is excessively high which I am willing to pay but accompanied with good quality food as caveat. Their service does NOT align the food quality. The women behind the open buffet counter do not respond to customers’ inquiries as I browsed the many hot food options and saw meat, “what is that? what type of meat is that?” for a dismissive tonal reluctant irascible response “It’s meat! MEAT!!” Insolent! My colleague intervened: “she is asking what type of meat is that.” All my colleagues and manager decided to attain the Dominican Mondongo, tripe stew soup which was good. We patiently waited for warm Casabe al ajillo bread with garlic to be served which we had to request with persistence as it is not accompanied for inclusion. I always have a predilection for garlic bread. There are a lot of staff behind the buffet hot food bar and cash register counter all actively hustling working speaking Spanish which many were very abruptly dismissive for my request of the standard sales receipt to be printed. Being busy with a lot of work does not give one the prerogative to be rude, irascible, dismissive, curt in a boorish wayward behavioral manner to your customers who are spending our hard-earn money giving it to your business! If you don’t speak Spanish as a patron, good luck to be serviced properly with dignity for inclusion.
Linguini pasta with chicken, small $9.00
The linguini was average pasta and the chicken embedded was also average. I do not taste their food to be described as “delicious.” I honestly could not consume a medium size plate as their attitude for poor customer service made me very despondent and intensely dispirited. Subsequently, I lost my appetite and food as desideratum was no longer enticing.
Our server was very attentive to us the entire time. Sancocho and bread were served complimentary and it was DELICIOUS.
I ordered the Shrimp Mofongo with the creamy garlic sauce; it was a bit on the drier side but nonetheless very flavorful. It was authentic Dominican Mofongo!
My partner ordered the Beef Yaroa with the fries and it tasted similar to Lasagna, amazing.
We both ordered the Morir Soñando and drank it in 2 seconds it was so good.
Definitely visiting again. The food, hospitality and drinks were great.
