★ 5★ 4★ 3★ 2★ 1Most of the food we ordered was bland, especially the pechurrinas. We ordered palitos de queso/ tequeños and THEY WERE TOTALLY RAW (I have attached a video and some pictures as well) we took them home since we ordered them to go. The quipes were excellent. The chimis also were lacking of flavor. We had a regular chimi and a chimi de pierna, which tasted more like I had more greasy parts of the pork than meat. We also ordered the bbq costillas with mofongo. Very tender and full of flavor. One thing they do have is good customer service the lady that took care of us was very nice and professional. Food is made to order and freshly made
August 30 · Darleny PolancoOh no they cook your food from scratch so expect to wait at least 30 or more want quick service phone or grub hub first. It’s not authentically the chimi Dominican sandwich it has more of twist to it. So make sure you know what you ordering. First timers last timer
March 30 · Lenny BCustomer service was great. The food was delicious. I highly recommend the mofongo and majaito.
June 19 · Danny FernandezGreat restaurant! Even better people. 5 stars all day.
March 21 · Colleen ONeillHad the pechurina w tostones and a crispy chicken burrito both bomb. The wasakaka was a 10/10, pastelitos were amazing, and a chinola tres leche out of this world. Friendly service as well makes this spot more of a plus. Def recommend it!
