Top Dominican restaurants in Paterson, United States

Save your self some time and money. Don’t go hear. I came here with my parents. My mom and I ordered the the stewed seafood, rice, beans and my dad ordered the oxtail with rice and beans. My food was cold. We dinned in. The portion was small and we paid $62. I was shocked the food was way too expensive and the food was not fresh. Gratuity was automatically included. This is crazy. Let the customer decide what gratuity to give based on food and service. It’s not like this is a 4-5 star restaurant. This was the most disappointing experience ever. I will never come back here. Please please don’t eat here. Trust me it’s not worth it, this is communing from a Dominican.

Let me start saying Don’t order food at this restaurant after 2:pm the food will be a mess the oxtail called in Spanish Ravo has a very hare flavor of beef meaning they don't clean the meat good before seasoning I also order pernil I told the lady who took my order over the phone I want fresh pernil soft fatty soft and plump but the pernil was dry and hard totally a mess I spend
$ 60 dollars on food for me and my kids as a Saturday dinner for nothing it was a waist of money my kids my didn't eat… Terrible experiences If you know the pernil is not fresh is not juicy as customer request don't sell it’!
just to make extra bucks extra dollars when the pork is so dry and bad, don't sell it, all businesses are perfidious, throw that dry and rare part of the meat in the trash its not fair plus the food was COLD !!! 🙄😩🤮

It used to be good but now the rice and maduros is really dry. They don’t pack the orders up like they used to. I barely get enough food. And the workers give attitude when I ask for more food.

Place has amazing authentic Dominican dishes in a typical buffet style setting but cooked amazingly fresh and pretty periodically as clients are ordering all the time! Service is always good and food selection is pretty vast.

Parking is the only issue as there is none, but given the location that's forgiven so come prepare to look for parking as it might be even 2-3 blocks away.

They take all types of credit cards in case you are wondering.

ROACH IN MY SOUP!! My pregnant cousin ate a whole large sancocho, when she got to the bottom, there was a DEAD FLOATING ROACH. 🪳 DONT EAT HERE !

Good food, but the food servers need to be a lot more attentive! I waited for 2 persons ahead of me to be served, and once that was done. I waited there 5+ mins the ladies were just walking back and forth while I was there waiting to order my food. It took the attention of the cashier to ask if someone was taking my order. This has happened multiple times too, so I don't come here much because of that reason.

I’ve always loved their octopus salad but today was a complete disgrace! I ordered it freshly made and after driving half hour there and then half hour back home looking forward to my salad and then rubber… Chewy, Salty not fresh at all. If it was fresh hands down to the cook because it was so chewy I couldn’t tell. I also did order sancocho which was very tasty but more on the soupy side, sancocho should be more of a thicker broth more like a thick stew.

I got the chimi sandwich with fries. They barely gave me any fries and the sandwich was so soggy and overloaded with sauce I couldn’t even enjoy it, they put too much on. I also ordered the alcapurries for $3 each and I couldn’t believe the size lol it was smaller then palm of my hand…I could go to the other spot near there and get it for the same price but better!! And there was no meat!! I will never order from here again
