Malecon: Reviews & Ratings
My favorite place! Clean, great and fast service, plenty of parking space, amazing food
I'm a truck driver and was lucky enough to deliver nearby in Yonkers. I stopped in for 2 sandwiches for my wife and I. The sandwiches were amazing, definitely in the top 5 of best sandwiches I've ever eaten. Thanks for being open and in the area I delivered to.
If you're looking for great Latin, Puerto Rican/ Dominican food, this is a great place to come to. The food is great, well cooked, the drinks are great and that's including the lemonade which is made fresh. The rice, beans, plantains, mofongo is made to perfection. I highly recommend this place if you need really good Latin food.
I guess I'm just a likeable person, I don't get the bad vibes from any of the staff there. I eat there 3-4 times a week. My go to meal is the Chofan and plantains. Food is flavorful and not dry. Lady at the register "La Flaca" always greets me with a smile and makes me feel welcome. The 3.5 rating is not indicative of the level of service and quality of food there. Only thing they could work on is the decor there, a complete dining room rehab would definitely make this place a lot more appealing on the eyes. Like in anything your experience will differ from others. For me, they gonna continue to get my money and patronage.
Being in a semi with husband we travel a lot! I have eaten so much different food and in so many different places. And I can tell you that this place made my top 10. I had the cuban sandwich and is was so good. The Pork tasted amazing it was so moist and juicy. There was a review I saw that knocked the cuban they were nuts because the pork was differently not dry. It was like I made it in my crockpot at home and it was slow cooking for hours with flavor and the juiciness. My husband had the steak sandwich which was good. It had to be, he inhaled it and was done before me. We will definitely be back if we are ever in the area again. So if your in the area please stop here you won't regret it.
Best food in Yonkers This place is my go to spot when I need oxtail mundango or if I'm feeling anything else for a little bit of seafood or some excellent Deserts. Please place a successful because if it's priceless and efficient staff. These lady's and gentlemen are awesome go with. They're talking about and know how to make us decision to help you decide..
Solid Dominican food. I’m a regular here. Good mofongo. And I often come for 3 golpe breakfast in the morning. Mangu is too oily for me, yucca is perfect for my taste. Friendly staff. Pretty fast service usually. They accept cards. 10 dollar minimum. Good coffee.
