Carmen her self is an amazing woman very kind and warm welcoming to her customers!!! She is truly the best Puerto Rican food I’ve in a very long time. Will definitely be back here when I’m back in the area!!!

One word: delicious!! The rice & beans were incredible. The sorullos con queso were to die for. Never had anything like it before. The platano maduro were the best plantains I’ve ever had. I ordered through door dash but cannot wait to try in person! 10/10!!

Finally got around to checking out this well-loved neighborhood spot and the food was absolutely delicious. You can call in your order or wait - I went around 11:30 and the wait was less than ten minutes. I had the pernil with rice, pigeon peas, and maduros. Flavorful all around, the pernil was tender, the maduros were perfectly cooked - not too oily and toasted. I had to keep myself from eating the whole plate. I wish the restaurant had empanadas and maybe some desserts on the menu but that could be me being greedy. I’m really happy with what I got and will be back to try out the chicken stew!

A lovely little place tucked away from the busy roads. The ladies who run it are nice and very humorous. I haven't had the chance to come back but I can't wait to. The food has deep, complex flavors as if the meat is cooked for hours. Go and order your next lunch from here so they can afford some air conditioning.

This review is way over due. I’ve been to Carmen’s Kitchen many times. I have never had a bad meal. If I could have her food for dinner every night, I would. The flavor, the portion sizes. Everything is on point 👌🏽
