Legendary Sandwiches Right Here

Try our classics like The Dominican Sandwich, which is a variation of the famous Cuban sandwich. Instead of Swiss cheese, it uses fried Dominican cheese. Mayo is substituted with a combination of mayo and ketchup, and pickles are replaced with pickled red onions. A twist to the sandwich is added with the inclusion of fried sweet plantains.

I ordered lunch for delivery. The girl that took my order was very nice and courteous. The food was delivered promptly. Nice and hot and the driver was very nice. Excellent food.

I’ve tried mofongo at countless places, but this restaurant is simply unmatched! The flavors are rich, authentic, and absolutely unforgettable. The portions are generous, and each bite bursts with mouthwatering goodness. The ambiance is warm and inviting, making it the perfect spot for a relaxed and enjoyable meal. The staff is friendly and attentive, ensuring a fantastic dining experience from start to finish.

This spot has a nostalgic atmosphere to me. The food was great, felt like my grandma made my dish. What’s a Spanish meal without a side salad tho? Iykyk! I would definitely come here again! If you’re in the LES you should definitely EAT HERE for authentic Spanish food!
