Medina kitchen and catering

"I worst have had in a long time. Hard over cook meat and seemed old the. .. rice was amazing great flavor both types .. the beef in the empanada was off tastes as well. ..."

"I actually got treated to these by a friend. I buy her food when we head out to a restaurant, so she did so this time. I took this picture from the 2023 Festival del Rio Anacostia (Anacostia River Festival) in Bladensburg, MD. These are the best empanadas I've probably had! I had the beef and chicken ones. Crispy crunchy shell and flavorful stuffing. The line was long at some points in the afternoon. So it had a popular turn out. I may head to the festival if the entrance is better handled because it's infamous it's HARD to access the part because there's no turn light and several lanes to pass to turn into the park (coming from across the street.)"

"As much as I would love to keep this restaurant to myself, I have decided to do some good to the community and share this amazing place! Pros: This is some of the best Dominican food I’ve had! Was helped out by Dani and he was so kind and patient. My friend said she wasn’t expecting that much of a portion was really enjoyed it. I had oxtail, rice and beans and maduros. Only con was not finding in sooner!"

"This is my kinda place: family owned, friendly service, and tasty dishes cooked with attention to detail. Probably the best Dominican food I've had in our county. The beef empanada was flakey and crisp without being dry, and the yucca was similarly done - lightly fried without being either too greasy or too dry. Near perfect. Hot bar with several choices of different fried rice, beef stew, chicken stew, catfish, oxtail, etc. The chicken stew was fantastic: flavorful without being too spicy or overwhelming. I plan on going back and trying everything on the menu!"

"They make the BEST Dominican coffee. I love their oxtails and just about everything they offer. I love the way they make their habichuelas rojas and moro de guandules. It’s always seasoned well. I think the best time to go is around lunch or mid afternoon. The staff are friendly and Mr Medina literally remembers every customer."
