I'm Dominican and was so happy when we finally got this Dominican restaurant in Buffalo. Never had any complaints in all the years I've gone there. It saddens me that my last visit wasn't memorable. My daughter took me there for my birthday and we expected to be served like before. It was like eating at a fast food restaurant like BurgerKing. You order, pay and sit down to eat. I wanted some pernil but what they had was some fat left. I asked the lady if they had pernil and she showed me what was on displayed. Didn't get chicharrones de pollo because it was mostly crumbs left so I got the ribs. Ribs had a lot of fat. Our food was given to us in take out plates. From the time I got up to order the food til I sat down was about 15 minutes. The food was okay. Where did my Dominican cooks go. It was so disorganized.

Read moreFirst time trying food from here, we are from out of town. Lower rating for atmosphere due to small sitting area so we ordered our food to go. Ordered 2 dinners and the portions are much bigger than we thought. 1 dinner was enough for the both of us to share with some left over. I ordered arroz con gandules, pernil, and costillas, in English, yellow rice with pigeon peas, roasted pork and ribs The large came with both meats Also a side of mangu , mashed plantains w pickled onion on top also a larger portion than expected We asked for the beans to be put on the side as I don’t usually like beans with my yellow rice. This food was delicious! I love the vinegar flavor in the pork and the beans have a good flavor of sofrito Also bought chicken and cheese empanada which was shared along the way and did not make it back to the room. Also very good and made very differently from how we are used to preparing them. Highly...
Read moreLa Casa de Sabores is a great Dominican/hispanic place to eat. The food is good. You can choose from either white rice and beans (the beans on it or on the side) or yellow rice with beans, and any kind of meat like baked chicken or bbq, ribs, pernil (which is marinated pork), pastelillos (pockets of meat and cheese), small pieces of boneless fried chicken, and maybe some other meat but I can't remember. They also have "mangú" which is a staple in Dominican culture which is mashed plantains with the consistency of mashed potatoes and some red onions in it (it's delicious) they also have a variety of sodas and juices like parcha (which is passion fruit), Malta (non alcoholic sweet malt beverage), and many others. Stop by and try it you will not be...
