I was working in brooklyn for the day. I searched up Dominican food, and El Manjar came up. I live in CT and i will be returning. That food was the closest tasting to how my grandmothers cooked. The service the food and the environment were to notch.

So affordable usually comes first on my list but what a wonderful surprise. The food was delicious , the pernil ( roast pork ) was not overly salted the rice and beans delicious . Cute little ambiance outside , you can tell it’s a family business flooded with love . Percent spot on my rotation
