Customer Reviews

My family and I were visiting PA from Florida. We found Sabor Dominicano and they did not disappoint with flavor or variety. Sabor Dominicano delivered an incredible dining experience that felt like stepping right into a Dominican kitchen filled with love and tradition. We ordered the arroz con gandules, pernil, and sweet plantains, and every bite was rich, comforting, and beautifully seasoned. The pernil was tender with that perfect roasted flavor, the rice was fragrant and full of depth, and the plantains added just the right touch of sweetness to round out the plate. To top it off, we had parcha (passion fruit) juice, which was refreshing, vibrant, and the perfect complement to the meal. You can tell the food is made con amor. If you're craving hearty, soulful island cooking, Sabor Dominicano is absolutely worth the visit. I'm already looking forward to going back for some mofongo.

Very authentic Oxtail! It melts in your mouth, the yellow rice is cooked to perfection, and the potato salad has so much flavor. It was so good we got Octopus salad to go. It's a family owned business all were super nice. Can't wait to go back!!!

Great food, no pricing posted anywhere not even the menu or an itemized receipt. Why this is is a mystery, but the pricing is reasonable. Service is friendly and willing to explain anything you don't understand. Seating for around 22 people.

Oh..what a gem! This was the very best Dominican food we ever had. We shared a few dishes but are definitely coming back to try their weekly specials. The red snapper, beef, fried chicken, mofongo...all made to perfection. The slow cooked pork was just melting in your mouth.. Try the octopus salad, it is amazing...
