Cibao Downtown Restaurant
3.9 (89)restaurant
A casual Brooklyn spot serving classic Dominican comfort food, starring seasoned chicharron de pollo and yellow rice.
Description


Under new ownership, the kitchen turns out Caribbean-style plates like pernil and sancocho. While some locals find the flavors transportive, recent visits highlight inconsistent execution—with comments pointing to occasionally dry beef alongside the highly praised, crispy fried chicken. Despite these mixed reports, the restaurant is recognized for offering good value from a price perspective.
