Harlem Dominican Plates Stacked High for Takeout
Roast chicken, ribs and plantains piled onto plates at a West 143rd Street counter.
🍗 Dominican Comfort, Harlem Style
Grini's Grill is built for the kind of Harlem meal that travels well. The counter keeps Dominican comfort classics moving, with roast chicken, ribs, plantains, grilled chicken salad, salmon, and Spanish rice and beans in the rotation. The display case also makes room for sweets, and the generous portions can turn a quick pickup into dinner for a small crew.
The appeal is direct, filling food at low prices, with service that visitors regularly praise. Family sized meals are part of the rhythm here, whether you are packing up for home or choosing a plate from the hot line. The kitchen can be inconsistent at times, a fair caveat when you want a substantial Dominican spread in Harlem. The restaurant opens at 8 AM daily and stays open until 9:30 PM most days, with Sunday service ending at 8 PM. A 4.3 rating across 623 reviews adds context for a counter that keeps the focus on generous takeout. It suits an unfussy lunch, a takeout run, or a table stocked with leftovers for later.
