I had easily one of the best restaurant experiences of my life here. The server was incredibly knowledgeable and patiently described many delicious-sounding options to us, then brought us a taste of the oxtail so we could make an informed decision. She was friendly and fun, but the food itself was also exceptional. The oxtail was so tender and perfectly spiced, the guisado had an incredible sauce (definitely get with onions and peppers!) and the dirty rice went perfectly with everything. My husband loved his plantains with the mayo ketchup, and we both adored the passion fruit juice! Go check this place out!

Hands down the best lunch spot in Hamilton. The staff has a fun, friendly, family vibe. You feel like you are eating out of someone's home kitchen. Highly recommend the ox tail, snapper, and mofongo.

Stumbled upon this cute little restaurant. My gf had just moved here from Chicago, so she was missing some home cooking. By far the best Dominican food we've ever tasted. The space is small with only 4 tables and a bar with a diner feel. There was about 3 people working when we were there. The service was OK considering the amount of customers and servers. The menu is written on a glow up board towards the back. We got the fried chicken, pork chops and mango smoothie. The food came out fresh and delicious. It's safe to say we will make the trip put here more often.

This corner shop is quaint, cozy and full of small town charm. It has a friendly atmosphere with a gracious hostess, and people seem to know each other, or engage in friendly conversation. They don't have a fixed menu. Stop in to see what they have on special today! Dirty rice, pintos, tostones, empanadas, Latin American sodas, and fresh made drinks like tamarindo. You can even get wings or fried chicken on rice with pintos and gravy. The food comes out fast and fresh, for carryout or dine in. They even have a small diner counter you can sit at while watching telenovelas and listening to Latin music. While there isn't a wide selection for vegetarians, you can certainly find some tasty options, then cover them in picante sauce. I had the cheese empanadas, rice and beans, tostones, and a tamarindo. It's a lot of food at a very reasonable price. Here's their Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/Deliscafe34 It shows up on Google Maps as "Dominican Restaurant." They describe it on Facebook as "rich Hispanic food with Dominican Creole seasoning."
