El Sitio

We really enjoyed the food we had at El Sitio the other night! The most impressive and unique menu item for us for the Jibarito sandwich which used a plantain instead of bread! I also thought their rice was incredible and so flavorful. The pernil, empanadas, wings, and ribs were all great too, and the alcapurrias de guineo was a new food for me that I really liked as well. The owner’s wife makes the desserts, and we thought the tres leches was very good. It felt good supporting this family-owned business, and they were so kind.

Very friendly staff. I ordered white rice and beans, rice a little bit hard, beans look like water with color, the pork ( pernil) tender but lack of flavor. The chicken soup, just water with chicken flavor, nothing special.

I was looking forward to eat again en El Sitio. I had came here a few months ago. The food was really good. I finally was able to come to Connecticut since I live in Boston. I had ordered online after I had paid for the food my order was canceled, I was very disappointed. Tried calling several times couldn't get through. When I finally made it to the restaurant they only had the scrap food. Im not sure how we ened up paying double of what I was ordering online when I had gotten way less food. It was horrible. I understand they were an hour away from closing but instead of giving us a deal, I felt like they had double charged us. The Bacalaito was fryed in old oil. The empanadillas were very small. The pernil was horrible. The rice was burnt, the carne guisa was salty. The papa rellena tas

Friendly staff. Decent parking. Meat was tender, just lacked flavor. Rice a bit hard as well. I will try a few other items and re rate them. A little disappointed thinking the guisado was going to be better. Pernil was sub par as well. It was a late Sunday so Maybe it wasn't as fresh.

This spot is a gem! My compliments to Chef Cito who cooks food as if it was made in the mountains of Puerto Rico. The customer service was great. The young lady greeted us with a smile and and the place is super clean. The food was flavorful and the fried platanos and carne frita are made fresh to your order. This young man cooks as if he has the soul of a traditional Puerto Rican Abuela❤️. The portions are perfect and priced well. If you are in the mood for fresh, traditional and flavorful PR food this is the place to go. Come by and show this business some love. We will definitely come back again.
