Specializing in authentic Caribbean flavors, this restaurant delivers a genuine home-cooked Dominican experience that captures the essence of the island’s rich culinary heritage.

“ The food is straight fire. If you want real, home‑cooked Dominican food, pull up to Brisas El Caribe. We ordered catering (rice, beans, pernil) for Noche Buena, and everything slapppppppppppped. We had a little hiccup with the order, but they fixed it quick and handled it mad fair. Every time I talked to someone, they were chill, respectful, and super helpful. Bomb food + good people… why you still reading? Go eat. ”
“ Very good Spanish for. I had oven baked chicken with white rice and beans and it was delicious ”
“ Oh, if you love fresh , tasty Caribbean food this is a gem ( my favorite is roasted pernil ) . I have been either picking up or ordering them for at least 10 years. Time to write a stella review for this restaurant. The prices are genuinely real" Bronx "prices , that put to shame " nouvelle cuisine " Micro foods , at Macro prices. The Bronx has so many undiscovered great food restaurants. Don't get me started on the iconic Arthur Avenue genuine , delicious ,imported Italian foods and pastries that will make your first visit , for many more to come.!! ”
“ We haven't been to Brisas del Caribe in a long time but I felt like having steak & onions with rice & beans. I'm so glad I told my hubby to stop here & eat because the steak & onions with rice & beans were soooooo good. I haven't had a great steak with excellent sauce from cooking it, with onions, in forever. Usually the steak is greasy & the onions are flavorless from different Latin places. This was wonderful & the size of the steak OMG. The place is nothing great it has a decent amount of space to sit and eat if you want to dine in. It's more like an Express eat in cuchifrito with great steak & onions. I specifically say steak & onions because when we used to come here more frequently my hubby used to get the chicken & like most all places the chicken is dry with not much flavor. It's like popcorn to me; it smells a whole lot better than I enjoy the taste. Nothing worst than dry anything meat wise. Oh I can't forget to mention how great their beans are man oh man I was in heaven eating them. They're very flavorful that I could just eat spoonfuls. I ate practically the large size by myself (over a few days) which my stomach didn't thank me for of course. ”
“ This was a good spot. A little bland on the hospitality but the food was excellent. Spacious place with room for small parties. It was a work night for me and the guys and this was the best place for a after work dinner. The portions are very healthy and the price is not to be beat. Definitely coming back with the wife next time see how she likes it. If you in the area stop by and enjoy a very delicious dish. I give this place 5 stars. Not much to complain about. Good job n thank you ”
