You’re looking at roughly $22 per person – reported by 81 diners. That puts it in the $21–$30 category. For a Dominican Restaurant, it’s comfortably mid-range: not a steal, but not bank-breaking either.
Interestingly, while the average is $22, a good chunk of guests (52 of them!) actually spend less, typically in the $11–$20 range. This suggests a nice mix of budget-friendly bites and some more substantial, mid-range options.
Here’s a quick look at what guests spend per person, based on the latest 81 reviews.
How this restaurant’s value stacks up against similar spots in Orlando.

Disappointing Experience Despite Amazing Staff
Our group of 8 went to see what the hype was about, and unfortunately, we didn't enjoy our experience. While the staff was amazing and very nice, coming from NY/NJ, we expected more. The prices were more expensive than up north for the quality of the food, making it not worth it.
The mangu and onions tasted like they just had a lot of vinegar, and the chicharron de pollo was dry. They had to remake two of our sandwiches because I asked for a chimi with steak, not the burger, and they initially brought the burger. Additionally, if you don't like loud music, you'll have to order to go, as the speaker is so loud and right behind your head that you can't even have a conversation.
Hope it gets better.

Great Food, Poor Communication
My experience at this restaurant was a mix of amazing food and frustrating service. While the food itself was excellent, the ordering process through Uber Eats presented significant challenges. It was impossible to leave notes for my order, and I couldn't find a phone number to contact the restaurant directly.
This lack of communication resulted in me not receiving the drinks I paid for. I believe the restaurant should proactively reach out for alternatives when such issues arise. Despite the communication and service shortcomings, the food was truly wonderful, and I wish the overall experience had been as seamless.
