Merengue Restaurant

Best dominican food in the area, and the 3-leches dessert & cappuccino are extraordinary!. Merengue Restaurant is not your ordinary Latino restaurant. You get to listen to great music while having a meal that if served in downtown will easily be priced three times its cost. Every little detail has been covered, wall pictures by well-known Dominican artists have been beautifully placed around the restaurant, and the interior design carries you to another country instantaneously. I tried the mofongo (mashed plantains) and the picadera once, and I came back to have the coconut fish, and then came back for a different dish the following weeks, not sure if it was for the entree or for the delicious tres leches they serve for dessert, but I remember myself eating hastily just to order one of those with a cup of cappuccino that will shame Starbucks in a second!

Highly recommended for all tastes! I promise you will find a plate of yo…

With a casual atmosphere and a soundtrack of Latin tunes, Merengue provides a welcoming spot for homesick expats. Popular menu items include a fried pork chop (served with Puerto Rican-style rice) and a red snapper ceviche with diced red bell pepper, green olives and onions. Creamy, custardy, caramel-intensive flan provides a cooling finish.…

LOVED IT!!!. There food is excellent and YUMMY!!! There service is excellent, always nice and checking in just in case we needed anything. I love the music and the way they set up the whole place is wonderful. I definitely recommend this place. If you love Spanish food, this is the place for you.
