I love the empanadillas this time I got shrimp with rice and beans it was delicious and served really hot. I’d definitely come back and get this same plate again

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 didn’t even have a Sprite for my wife because they ran out. Food below average no seasoning. Horrible my kids left to eat at McDonald’s because the food wasn’t good the meat was hard overcooked.

A slice of the Dominican Republic in El Paso. Food was better than expected. Terrific customer service and the Dominican music amplified the Caribbean atmosphere.

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.

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!!

Decent hole in the wall type place. It’s nicer inside than the outside suggests. Reasonably priced and good Dominican food. Our Dominican friend tells us it’s pretty authentic. The plaintains were AWESOME and so was the menundo. The steak was a bit tough but good flavor. I recommend!

I usually like to only write positive reviews but this place really needs to step it up. They didn’t have many of the things they offer in their menu. Service was super slow. And when the food finally came it was not even ok. The mofongo was super dry and they didn’t have any sauce or mojo to put on it. It was also flavorless. I couldn’t eat more than one bite. The empanadas were not golden and actually almost empty inside. It really did not make any justice to the real Dominican food.

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.

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!!!
