      Ive always enjoyed the rice and chicharrón de pollo they have here. The seasoning is great and the portion is good for one person. I haven't tried the rest of the things they have but the food is always sitting out so it doesn't make me too comfortable.

      Unfortunately, I agree with previous comments that the attitude of the workers isn't the best. The people who eat here are also not the nicest. The violations this place has makes me weary to eat here again, overall the location isn't the best as well.

      I hope they clean up their act or replace this with something better. This area is in serious need of better quality food.

      Out of all the Dominican restaurants around, El Jobito is one the very best. I usually have my food delivered and if I call at 12 I receive my order 10 minutes immediately after. Their food is authentic and made with love, you can taste it in every bite. You can either order a lunch or a whole order, depending on how hungry you are. I wouldn't recommend dining in because of how loud it gets with kitchen staff coming in and out and all the noises from the orders being made. It's a great family restaurant with free delivery at anytime you please.

      If you do not speak Spanish and you are not Spanish you should not eat here. I went here because I could not order over the phone because I do not speak Spanish and they do not speak English so I had to go into the restaurant. When I got there there were 4 ladies behind the counter none of them were busy but no one came to me and took my order. Another customer came after me and she started taking his order I said I was here before him the customer said she's acting like she doesn't speak English but she does. At this point I felt extremely uncomfortable and would not spend my money here. If you do not speak Spanish I would advise you to not even going to this restaurant because they will not treat you the same if you were Dominican or Puerto Rican. it sad. I will definitely not ever in my life go here and I would not ever recommend this place to anybody.
