Not the best but it is okay. Ordered a mangu and the whole plate was greasy to where you could see the oil on the plate. The rice and beans is good with the meat but too expensive. Not coming back unless I m STARVING. Also they do not offer delivery, not sure why it shows on their page.

BEST Dominican food in El Paso. Family owned and operated; Ivan will welcome you with open arms! The environment is like being transported to the Domican Republic- Tommy Bahama shirt, Pollo guisado, Tostones, and Salsa music in the backdrop. 5/5 stars, hidden GEM. I will be back MANY times!

Had yellow rice with the pork called Pernil. Also had an order of the fried plantains which Are called tostones and it was very good. Will return. The food was already prepared and I think they just warmed it up but it tasted like it had just been made from scratch. Service was fast and friendly.

I took my wife and kids to try to get some good food, very disappointed, nothing that we wanted was available you had to eat from the 5 plates available that they had, they didnt even have a Sprite for my wife because they ran out. Food below average no seasoning. Horrible my kids left to eat at McDonalds because the food wasnt good the meat was hard overcooked.

We went with our expectations really high and left disappointed. Our food was cold and bland. My kids got the chicken fingers with fries and it was very bland. My husband and I asked for similar plates, which had Mangu, rice (his had salad), and pernil. The meat was dry and very bland as well, and to top it off - cold. The mangu was dry and salty. We asked for our food to be reheated, and even after they did, the food was still cold. Also asked for a long Island and it tasted more like soda and sweet tea than a cocktail drink. Overall, I do not recommend this place. Instead, I recommend 787 Restaurant & Bar off Airport Rd which is way better.

Found this place by accident, dont let looks deceive you! Outside looks meh!! But when u step inside its big spacious clean and very very well decorated. They put some money into this place! Looks like so far the owners are the ones serving and cooking. Everyday they add one mean that is different. They have a select menu but its very good. Service was attentive and nice.

I would like to start by saying that I am Dominican, so I know Dominican food/flavor. I went to Merengue this week, as I just recently moved to the area. I started with passion fruit juice and an empanada, they were both delicious and the Empanada had so much flavor it reminded me of home. I decided to order the mofongo de ajo with fried pork chunks and OMG, it was so good! Mofongo was not hard and the pork was fried, but so juicy, I was so happy. I ate so much I didn t eat dinner, the portions are great and the prices fair. The staff is amazing, Luz was my server and she was great! I will be back very soon, I want to try everything on the menu!!

Food was good but not really great compared with other Dominican restaurants I had been on another states. I only went once for the bar/disco area. Wasnt really pleasant. Music was WAY TOO LOUD although the DJ did try to mix it up was a LOT of Urban and reggaeton which it is not my thing. Stayed for like an hour, is small, and can get really crowded. Bar was good. Drinks were well done, prices fair.

The first time i came, the experience was great. After like a few months i dont know what happened, whoever is the lady that answers the phone always seem to have an attitude. I had a tres golpes and the food had some weird liquid that seem to be coming from the mangu and the queso frito and salami wasnt cooked right and it wasnt the first time i had ordered that and the food wasnt good. I tried to give it more chances but its just keeps dissappointing me. If ya think that is good please let me know what magic trick ya did to get the food done right.

The worst experience ever!!! The waitress was super rude. Ended up with a piece of hair in my food. The mangu didn t have any taste to it, also the empanadas barely had anything in them and wasn t even golden like it s suppose to be.To put the icing on the cake we got charged twice for our drinks. The drink came in some small plastic cup that looked like it could ve been a shot. Not once did they even come back to ask if we wanted another drink, on top of that it was 13.00 for one drink. I was so upset that I just paid and left. IF I COULD I WOULD RATE A NO STAR!!!
