EL GORDITO FRITO ORIGINAL · EST. 2026

Chicken & sides

Bone-in Dominican fried chicken. Marinated overnight in sour orange, oregano and garlic, fried hard.

Tiras de Pollo

Same marinade, no bones. Hand-cut breast, craggy crust, built for dipping.

Papas Fritas

Thick-cut, double fried, dusted with our sazón salt.

Green plantains smashed and fried twice. Salt while hot, eat immediately.

Wasakaka is the signature — the Dominican garlic-citrus sauce. What is wasakaka?

The signature. Raw garlic, sour orange, parsley, oil. Sharp and loud.

Creamy, tangy, a little sweet. The one the kids fight over.

Scotch bonnet and vinegar. Respect it.

Orange and milk, ice cold.

Red cream soda from the island.

For the sensible ones.
