Hidden gem! I’m a ups driver and I’m around the whole New York and this is one of the best Caribbean/spanish places I’ve ate at, food was affordable for the large quantity you get and they give you a full meal. Staff were attentive and friendly, recommend it to everyone.

Super delicious food! I had beef with rice and beans, very generous portion. Beef empanadas are really good. The staff were also very kind and helpful.

I was looking for an affordable lunch around Central Park West when this place popped up on Google maps as one of the best rated around. It’s awesome food, it’s a ridiculous amount of food that will be plenty for 2 people and just think about paying 11.45 for all this. I hope this place make it right and keep like this, I wouldn’t be surprised if at some point you will see a line at the front door. Go for the beef stew, it’s homey and the best comfort food I have found since I arrived to USA.

Went in there for the first time today and I am thoroughly impressed. There are a lot of places to get Boricua/Dominican food in NY, but this place is soooo good. Do yourself a favor and just order from them. Also, the young girl with the blue eyes that helped me at the counter, amazing! Thank you!

I don't usually write reviews but this place deserves more business than it gets. The lunch deal is fantastic, delicious and generously portioned.

Did too good to go. It was delicious and plenty of food. Really nice sauces and delicious beans. It was a great extremely cheap meal. I’ll be back to order off their regular menu including empanadas which I’m sure are fantastic.
