Golden Pine Deli - Copiague

Use to be our go to place but no more. There prices are getting out of control and they have no published pricing anywhere. Depends on who you get as a cashier on what price you will pay.

As a buffet-style with many wonderful. Dominican cuisine

Great selection of food and authentic drinks from Caribbean and Latin countries. However, it was extremely overpriced.

Food tastes good and is fresh. They are not cheap, but then they probably don 't use MSG or the other highly processed condiments. Unfortunately, they put peppers and/or tomatoes in just about everything. Why? Just because ... This makes it tough for people with nightshade allergies. Our daughter did not join us yesterday. Otherwise we would have gone elsewhere, but NO leftovers for her yesterday! Also, the pricing is unclear. For instance, until what time is the lunch (lonche) served ... just what is the price and when does it increase? This information should be clearly listed. Their menu has no prices?! These are basics practices that too many places are neglecting. After all, this place has clientele that speaks different languages. Some of their servers speak Spanish only. Sadly, regulations are not at this time being enforced. They can basically get away with all sorts of things. Lastly, we were there at 5:00 PM and they only had one kind of bean and they didn 't have the brown rice that was listed on their menu for the day. Since they were going to stay open until 8:00 PM, why was that? Perhaps they wanted to move out the lunch food before bringing out the fresh stuff. They probably buy what is least expensive on any given day and sell it at a regular fixed price. This way they can be assured maximum profit. Most places put profit before people, service and customer loyalty, all of which have become lost concepts.

Always the best tasting Spanish food. Always fresh and looking good
