I don't know why this place only has 3 stars; their food is amazing!! Only place in a 5 mile radius that consistently serves chicharrón &pernil made to perfection. .... And those maduros? they've turned into an art form . Pay no attention to the reviews or even mine for that matter . With unbelievably affordable prices just go eat there to find out for yourself. any time any day 24/7 . Who else is preserving NYC's dying reputation as the city that never sleeps? (that in itself deserves 5 stars! )

Mambi is my regular spot. You can't beat a FRESH, DELICIOUS, WELL MADE Dominican lunch or dinner. My boyfriend and I usually end up spending $30 here and leaving satisfied with full bellies. I love the service, everyone is wonderful. And the atmosphere is very familiar and homey. The bars in the back, pickup orders in the front. You know the drill, come in, enjoy yourself and eat.

This is my second time here. Came all the way out Washington Heights specifically for this restaurant all the way from Miami. Love everything about this restaurant.

A block from United Palace and it was nearly midnight. Dishes looked similar to what we would get from a Filipino carinderia, but we were in the Heights. Dishes in trays lined up the length of the wall facing the counter table. I pointed at a chicken stew and yellow rice and asked for a can of Coke. The place seemed bigger now. There was a small bar, too which I didn't notice before - years before. The staff was all friendly. I heard a catchy tune playing, "...mi ex tenia razo-on", her voice had a certain charm to it. I had a glimpse of their tv and it said: Karol G. I must add that to my playlist. We finished our meal in no time and bought tres leches to go. My husband thought his lechon asado was just ok, but I finished my chicken with relish. At home, I enjoyed the cake with coffee.

So I ordered a Modello's and a Cuban and took a seat. The staff was great, the Cuban was so good I got one to go. Here's the catch. I walked out without my purse. Left it on the chair. It took me a few minutes walking to realize and I went back pretty sure my bag was long gone. Nope. The staff were happy to see me and were holding onto my purse for me. Good food, good people.

The food here is delicious!!!! Totally recommend !! Service wise, they take a little long to get around to you, I'll be standing on line waiting for them to get to me and they continue talking to either eachother or other customers and not about food or anything important, about BS. It's mostly the women.. I'll be waiting online for like 5-10 mins while the women there talk to all the men customers.. i guess it's for the tips

One of my top 2 favorite Dominican restaurants in the inner city. Why? Not only because it's open 24 hours, has a great selection of fresh traditional Dominican main entrees, appetizers, drinks & desserts at any hour but the workers make you feel like family after a few sit downs at their stool counter or table & you asking for a bit of "con con". I've had everything from the rotisserie chicken with yuca, polo al caldero to the sancocho, albejas & hanichuela dulce to name just a few. Today I craved what turned out to be a great meal for myself to savor at home. It included a delicious side of stewed okra (after a small taste, had to get what I only ate when Mom made me to as a child), side of chicharon, potato salad, red beans with stewed chicken & white rice. All this food which could have fed 2 hungry adults & a child cost me $35 & hit the spot. Whenever you, your girl/wife or Mom are not in a cooking mood this is where you go for a taste of authentic Dominican food made with love of a Mom in a D.R. kitchen. I've been coming to this restaurant for over 20 years & it has become a staple of the area where regular clientele come watch to eat, watch the game, listen to good music & have a drink at the bar by some hardworking & beuatiful bartenders & waitresses.
