Everything was amazing! The beans were some of the best I had, full of flavor. The rice was also delicious and perfectly cooked. The sandwich was pressed nicely with a generous amount of meat. The bacalaito was also tasty and my bf was very happy with it since it's one of his favorite foods! Overall, this is an awesome spot and I can't wait to go back!

Owl Corner Cafe is a solid spot for authentic Puerto Rican food. The portions are generous, everything is well seasoned, and it feels like a true home-style meal. The mofongo was packed with flavor and paired perfectly with the broth. The bistec was tender and rich, and the arroz with habichuelas and maduros hit the spot. The grilled chicken with arroz con gandules was also well cooked and full of flavor. Even the Malta India on the side brought it all together. On top of that, the prices are very reasonable for the amount of food you get. Great portions, good flavor, and good value. Definitely a place to go when you’re craving real Puerto Rican comfort food. We will be back.

Before heading home to New York, I decided to stop in at Owl’s Corner Cafe for a quick breakfast and I am so glad I did. The moment I walked in, the place felt completely authentic. Great music playing, a warm morning vibe, and a staff that made me feel welcome right away. You can even see the kitchen crew having fun and loving what they do, which just adds to the whole experience. The decor is incredible. I caught myself taking pictures before I even sat down. When I finally did, I ordered an omelet that was absolutely fantastic and paired it with a cup of coffee that hit the spot perfectly. What a great way to end my trip. I almost extended my stay just to try more of their dishes.

Owl's Corner is amazing! Very difficult to find authentic Puerto Rican cuisine with the atmosphere of the island. This place hits home. Churrasco was delicious along with arroz con gandules. Could eat their tostones until I pass out. Friendly service from the moment I walked in the door. Bi-lingual servers for which I was grateful and very excited to practice my Spanish! Music had me dancing at my table (and I was alone 🤣). Can't wait to come back con mi madre!!! 🇵🇷❤️🇵🇷

★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Maria Matos · Jan 2026

I was really looking forward to trying this Puerto Rican restaurant, but unfortunately the experience was disappointing from start to finish. Every dish we tried lacked the authentic flavor and seasoning you would expect from Puerto Rican cuisine. We arrived at 11am and were very happy to see that they offered breakfast options. We ordered a ham and cheese omelet, and coffee. While the breakfast items were just okay, I was really excited to also try some of the traditional Puerto Rican dishes, since that’s what the restaurant is known for. The arroz con gandules was far from authentic. The rice was a mound of mush and, instead of gandules, they used green peas. The pernil was also a letdown. It was dry and lacked the bold seasoning that usually makes this dish so flavorful. Unfortunately i
