London’s slice of the Dominican Republic, offering massive portions of garlic-heavy plantains amidst loud music and eclectic decor.
Ordering Strategy
Portions are enormous—one main dish is often enough for two people. Go with a group to share family-style trays.
What to order
Mofongo with Crispy Pork
The restaurant's 'classic dish,' featuring a 'tight' texture of mashed plantain served with a 'fresh and chunky' salad. It is highly recommended to use the accompanying garlic sauce to balance the 'very filling' and 'quite dry' nature of the plantain.
Fried Tilapia
A massive, 'lovely' portion consisting of a whole fish served with a 'delicious coconut sauce,' fried plantain on a skewer, and boiled rice. Critics note that while it is a 'very large portion,' the quality makes it easy to finish.
Tamarind Juice
One of the homemade beverage options described as 'not too sweet' and an ideal accompaniment to the restaurant's substantial Dominican portions.
Homemade Lemonade
Praised for being 'not too sweet and very refreshing,' this drink is highlighted as a standout choice for those looking to balance the heavy, savory flavors of the meal.

Good to know
Service operates on 'island time' and can be very slow. The music is often played at party volumes, making it better for a fun hang than a quiet chat.
