This Washington Heights walk-up spot serves traditional Dominican home cooking, from breakfast mangú to moro rice.
Description




With no formal printed menu, ordering here relies on knowing what you want or asking the patient staff. The kitchen serves Dominican-prepared staples at very low prices, from tres golpes breakfast plates to sides of macaroni salad. If you don't speak Spanish or aren't familiar with the dishes, the experience can feel a little intimidating, but the payoff is genuine, budget-friendly food that neighborhood locals praise for its authentic homemade taste.
