El Cibao - Brooklyn

I brought a friend to this restaurant for his birthday and we had a great time, but we were disappointed by the flies in the outdoor dining area. Thankfully, we ended up eating inside and everything was fine. The food was delicious and the bill came out to about $80 for 3 people, including 3 main dishes, 1 appetizer, 1 alcoholic beverage, and 2 regular drinks. Overall, not a bad experience and the service was excellent.

The food at this restaurant was delicious with generous portion sizes. The average plate cost $14. The passion fruit juice was flavorful and sweet, and the fried sweet plantains were tasty. I wish the plantains were a bit juicier, but that's just me being a plantain addict. They only accept cash, and our server Carolina provided excellent service.

Excellent food very excellent prices. No frills no gimmicks just delicious food that I would think is fairly authentic. I love the maduros here I like that they don't use syrups to make it sweet like most other places do. But it is cash only here so bring some but you won't need a ton which is rare for the area of fancy hipster places this place should be more packed but it seems like they do a ton of delivery business.

I went to this restaurant with my co-workers and they ordered the chicken and chicharron mofongo, which they said was plentiful and delicious. I opted for the chicken soup, which had a really tasty and home-cooked flavor. I thoroughly enjoyed it. The restaurant has a simple and cozy mom-and-pop atmosphere that is clean and well-organized. The staff, including the waitresses and counter person, were very friendly.

Pretty good food, large menu, and reasonably priced. The steak was a little dry and not so hot The plantains (Platenos Madoros) were phenomenal. Overall pretty good.
