Update: Since the restaurant wants to lie, I will also add that I did NOT eat in, it was takeout, so they certainly have no way of knowing how much of it I ate or did not eat. I do not appreciate them trying to discredit my review of the food with lies. I gave an honest review, if you do not like that it just so happened to be a bad review, maybe take it up with your kitchen staff and make better food. I am lowering my review because lying on a customer is unacceptable. Lastly, I obviously stated that I mentioned the Dominican thing because other reviews made it seem like this was the spot for Dominican food, I was simply clarifying to others that it is not. Glad the restaurant and I can both agree on that. Due to their reply, I will certainly never return here.
Original Review: A few people have claimed this to be Dominican food and it is NOT Dominican at all (I know they only claim hispanic but other reviews did and I want to make sure it is clear to everyone that if you are looking for Dominican food that this is not it, go to Worcester). The restaurant includes dishes from all parts of Latin America including the Caribbean. Yet, the more Dominican style food (or rather Caribbean Latin food) was lackluster. The white rice was fine, nothing to write home about. The stewed beef lacked flavor, and the red beans looked like they came from a can and also lacked flavor. I can tell they are trying to imitate Dominican/Puerto Rican food but, again, not very well. Maybe they are better at the central american foods, on that I cannot comment. The interior was modest and the back although organized did not look the cleanest. Once I noticed the state of the place and the look of the food I decided to go for a small plate. The small plate was about $9 and included the smallest portion of food I have seen in the area. Given how the taste was mediocre, I would much rather pay a bit more for any of the Brazilian spots around, which are usually $13-14, but give more food, have more variety, and most importantly better flavor! I'm only giving it two stars because although the food was disappointing, it was edible, and the staff was nice. I will...
Read moreGO TO "The Aztec" INSTEAD!! :) my doordash driver never came to drop off my food. I got my money back from doordash and went to order again but THE RESTAURANT cancelled my order and claimed that because they already made it ones and it got picked up that it's mine and doordashes problem and that he wouldn't make my food again because doordash wont pay him again and hung up on me. Doordash customer service let me know that it's unethical and incorrect information. This owner would turn a cheek on a hungry person without fact checking for...
