"The food was freaking amazing. Servers were awesome. they were good. they actually took their time and were careful. I would highly recommend it it was so cheap and fun. My mom says it was the best coffee shes ever had!"

"10/10 recommend ! You come in hungry and leave feeling like family. The food/bevs were spectacular and the service was excellent. Lovely little corner spot with good views for ppl watching and decorated in a fun way that creates ambiance. I couldn’t believe how reasonable the prices were. It seems like all the employees are good people which translates to the atmosphere of the place. Thanks for helping my mom’s trip down here end in the perfect way. We’ll be back !"

"Best Breakfast & Brunch Spot in NYC — Period. When you factor in price, flavor, and quality. There’s simply no other spot that beats it. What makes this place unique is that it’s not your typical all-American brunch, which for me can sometimes be on the bland side. Here, you’re getting a true Dominican-American breakfast and brunch experience — sazon, flavor, and soul in every bite. If you enjoy savoring your food, this is a match made in heaven. Their mangú is smooth, creamy, and comforting — not the stiff, heavy version you often get elsewhere. I ordered the tres golpe and my girlfriend had the dos golpe with pechurrinas (Dominican chicken tenders). The chicken was crisp to perfection, seasoned beautifully, and mixing it with the mangú is next-level. To finish, I ordered a papaya milkshake that was amazing — rich, refreshing, and the perfect balance. The flavor here is what sets them apart. If you’re Latino, or if you just love food with seasoning and depth, this is the spot. Too many brunch places in the city are bland — here, every bite has sabor. On top of that, the service is excellent. Our server Jeanette was attentive, funny, and welcoming — exactly the kind of energy you want when you’re hungry. And let’s talk about price. In 2025, when everything feels overpriced, this spot is a blessing. Most dishes are $5–$10, nothing over $25, and the quality is unmatched even compared to restaurants charging triple. You get your money’s worth every time. The only downside is they’re not open for dinner — but for breakfast and brunch, Cafeteria Brooklyn is unbeatable. If you want food that’s flavorful, affordable, and satisfying, this is where you need to be. I’ll definitely be back."

"Order the Mangu con los tres golpes, BEChedder cheese sandwich and Morrir sonando. Mangu- wouldn’t order again, taste too vinegary for me, the color of the plantains threw me off but I’m guessing it’s because of the onions and the color coming off it because they soaked the onion in too much vinegar, and the salami Kona of look like a mixture of spam and sausage and don’t taste like the salami I’m accustomed to making when I make plátano y salami. 2/5 BECC - would order again, tasted great. 4/5 p.s. no pic of the sandwich cause I ate that thang down!!!! Morrir sonando - needed a little bit more milk imo but it was great I’ll order it again. 4/5"

"Me and my boyfriend have been ordering from this spot for months with no issues . However ordering today , we found two roaches within our order . One was on our delivery bag which maybe we thought maybe from our dasher or outside . But then my boyfriend orders coffee and drinks it down to the bottom and his very last sip he feels something and spits it out and its a full blown grown ROACH! This is very disappointing and disgusting to see ! We have got our refund thankfully through DoorDash , and we called the place to let them know and they said they don’t know how this could happen and they have construction happening but try to check things good , however obviously this was not checked good if this order came with not ONE but TWO ROACHES ! Safe to say we will not be ordering from here again!"
