Plan a meal at El Valle.

🍲 Homestyle Dominican Plates

El Valle Restaurant brings homestyle Dominican and Spanish American cooking to 640 Melrose Avenue in the Bronx. Mofongo and roast chicken are among the classics here, a direct invitation to make a meal of familiar staples. The cafe has a relaxed, family style atmosphere, keeping the setting as approachable as the food. Settle into a meal that puts neighborhood cooking ahead of ceremony.

Paella and seafood take the menu beyond those opening choices, alongside beef and goat options. Soup offers another direction when you want a different sort of meal. Leave a little space at the end for habichuela con dulce or tres leches, two desserts to weigh up before calling the meal finished.

An early start and a later meal both fit here, with the cafe open daily from 7 AM to midnight. Choose the hour that fits your day and let your appetite lead the order.
