Dubai Restaurant & Bar, located in Trenton, NJ, is a celebrated Dominican gem that has garnered rave reviews from patrons eager to enjoy authentic dishes in a vibrant atmosphere. Customers highlight the standout mofongos paired with lechon, a dish that leaves even non-enthusiasts of Spanish cuisine like Sebastian Ortega pleasantly surprised. The culinary adventure doesn’t stop there; the octopus, fresh vegetables, and carne asada have also received accolades for their flavors and quality.

The experience is elevated by the engaging ambiance, particularly during the weekends when the energy shifts towards a lively club-like atmosphere, according to Sunny Senthil. With tantalizing Dominican sushi and well-crafted cocktails, happy hour draws the crowd with enticing buy-one-get-one deals, making it a perfect spot for locals and visitors alike.

Vinita Badani's impromptu visit turned into a delightful discovery, thanks to excellent service and an inviting space—both inside and in their outdoor seating area. El arroz con guandules and the innovative Domi Roll have made long-time patrons like Escarly frequent visitors. Overall, Dubai Restaurant & Bar offers more than just food; it’s a complete experience that combines taste, service, and a pulsating vibe that invites guests to return time and again.

I'm not a huge fan of Spanish food, but this place made me change my mind. We ordered takeout from here and the mofongos with the lechon and the monguitos with pork made me so happy. These were the best dishes we've tried from there. Everything else was delicious too, including their octopus, fresh vegetables, and their carne asada with onions. Would love to order again.

The food and atmosphere here is fantastic you def have to try the Dominican sushi it’s soooo tasty. Drinks are prepared well and are tasty and they have a good happy hour for any locals. They get really poppin on weekends and feels like a club. They also have hookah for anyone who smokes. I’ve been here multiple times and really enjoy everything this place has to offer.

Definitely gonna be my goto place in future.

This place is hidden gem. You could never tell from the street how nice it is inside and also in the back there is outdoor seating with plenty of tables. They have good happy hour which is from 5pm till 9 pm, and very good deals for drinks, buy one get one free for cocktails, as well as for small plates, 5 a plate. Food is REALLY good. We were not hungry so we only tried Mofongos and they were amazing. Food looks delicious and we are planning on going back to try other things too.

best place to satisfy my DOMINICAN FOOD cravings. Everytime im away from home, i think about this Domi Roll & el arroz con guandules! Ive been coming here for years and the owners continue to improve this spot, very chill& vibey place to come for a food / drinks & even party on the weekends. This time around the salmon in cream sauce was my favorite (recommended by the amazing server)

I stopped here on a Tuesday afternoon and was pleasantly surprised. The place was much nicer inside than I expected. The food was good and the bartender / server was really nice. However, keep in mind that despite the name and some things I had seen online this is NOT a middle Eastern restaurant. The menu is Spanish with some American food as well (burgers, wings). I will stop back. Not sure what the crowd / vibe is like at night. It has sort of a club kind of feel so not sure if things change after a certain time as I was here early.

The place was good. Felt welcoming. The server was by herself but she tended to everyone in a timely manner and was very nice and attentive. I had 2 pina coladas they were so good and the sancocho was delicious. Can't wait to see what it's like at night!!
