Chef Toribio

Dominican Deliciousness in Brooklyn: At Chef Torribo’s restaurant, it's what I call New York raw - bold, Hispanic and tasty … and oh so my home city, New York! Named after the restaurant’s Chef Torribo, its a Dominican restaurant and the whole team at this restaurant come from the country’s capital. This was my first time in my 30 years in New York that I dined at a Dominican restaurant. I was quite excited to say the least and enjoyed my visit as a new adventure! Let's start with drinks first: There is a light and refreshing lemonade that is homemade and fresh at this Dominican diner. It's pre-sweetened but not too sweet and quite refreshing indeed - just in case you are very health and fitness conscious like me. My all time favourite at this restaurant is passion fruit juice.

I’ve had A LOT better in other places on Jamaica. The rice and beans had no flavor whatsoever. The beans were watery and only garlic flavored. No salt at all, same with the rice. White rice is not hard at all to make. Actually there was maybe 10 beans in the watery “sauce”. The maduros were dry. The tostones had no flavor. The pork chicharon had a lot of fat. All went in the garbage. We were afraid we would get sick. They are very overpriced. Just wanted to try it out and we did. Lesson learned. I’ll stick with Caridad and Tropical. Never done wrong by us.

Food is good but service not so great. They seem to put together the combos as they see fit. I use to order a family combo every other day and it would always change. I use to just go with it but one day they literally gave me the bottom of the barrel hard rice and it was delivered so i couldn’t even change it. They told me to bring the rice back the following day and thay would switch it lol. Terrible

Been coming here for lunch on and off.. I keep coming cause the food is very good.. Problem is the girls make up the price.. I got a large lunch usually $12 this time I got charged $15.. also the portions are never same and they fill the plate up with rice unless you stop them.. all anyone wants is consistency in a togo place.. that doesn't happen here.. otherwise the staff is nice and the place is always clean..

Good food and good customer service!☺️
