Family run, super friendly, and DELICIOUS food! You can't beat the lunch special - 12 bucks for a HUGE portion. Well worth it and I can't wait to go back!!!

We drove 40 minutes to check out this place, and it was definitely worth the trip. From the moment we walked in, we felt welcomed; the owner personally introduced himself and made us feel right at home. The food was incredible - the oxtail was so tender it just fell off the bone, and the chicken stew was packed with flavor. This is a genuine Dominican restaurant, a must-visit for anyone seeking authentic Dominican cuisine. We'll definitely be returning. Sorry for not adding a picture, we devoured the meal.

Very good Spanish Dominican food, very authentic, I love this place , will definitely come more often...delicious

Food amazing ! The family running El Dominicano are truly nice people. I will be a frequent customer. So glad I found this place. Dutchess County was in desperate need of some Dominican flavor, thank you for bringing it.

Nice new dining spot located right across from the high school. There are tables to find in but I ordered food to go. Oxtail and stew beef. Both were really good, and they give large servings. Service was nice and friendly. I hope to make it back again soon.

Very happy with their service and food. Order two full pernils for a family gathering. Very happy with the results.

Great food and friendly service. I will definitely be ordering from here again. We had the stewed beef and empanadas (chicken and the beef). Everything was great. Even the kids enjoyed it.

Food: Oxtails,rice and beans were delicious. Meat was tender and flavorful. Rice and beans tasted like home. Service: Ladies behind the counter were very polite and welcoming. Ambiance: Clean environment. Just how I like restaurants to be. I will return soon.

My family has enjoyed everything about this restaurant. The food will have your taste buds screaming for more. They are priced right and provide healthy servings. We have eaten here multiple times and are fans. The vibe makes you feel right at home. The owners are so friendly and provide great service. Welcome to the neighborhood. You are exactly what this community needed.

I am so thrilled with this restaurant and the authenticity to the flavors of Latin cuisine it brings to our community. My family and I have ordered from here on multiple occasions and it never disappoints. My picky eating children love the food and always ask us to go back especially for their empanadas! The service was great, super friendly staff who ALWAYS have a smile on their face regardless of how busy it may get. I truly appreciate that since good customer service nowadays seems to be forgotten. We truly enjoy the setup, the easy parking, and the family welcoming environment. If you haven't had a chance to go, do yourself a favor a pay them a visit! You will not be disappointed.
