Pasteles Y Mas

What a mistake I made by going to this place. People be aware that prices are not posted at the restaurant. Therefore, they’ll charge you whatever they want. They offer overpriced and under quality food. No wonder the place was empty when I visited at lunch time. The $20 plate of ox tail was almost the size of my hand. I have very small hands.They charged me $1.80 for three fried plantains. The rice was extremely wet. It tasted like soup. The pasteles have a weird taste. The seasoning is horrible. If you are looking for authentic pasteles, then this is not the place.

I was genuinely looking forward to enjoying a traditional Puerto Rican dish, but unfortunately, my experience fell short of expectations. I ordered the Sancocho, a dish known for being hearty and comforting, and was surprised to receive a very small portion — especially considering the $20 price tag. While the flavor was decent, the serving size was far from satisfying. Sancocho is a beloved staple often enjoyed in generous portions, and this felt more like an appetizer than a main course. For the price, I expected not only a more substantial amount, but also a more complete and satisfying dining experience. I understand that restaurants have rising costs, but the value simply wasn’t there. I hope the management reconsiders their pricing or portion sizes moving forward, as I left feeling d

What a deception! Horrible food. My alcapurria de guineo was more like an ocean flavored gummy bear!!It was soooo salty and chewy. My husband ordered the Oxtail and the server tells him in spanish, "It's the most expensive dish we have",(Prices not posted anywhere)... my hubby still wanted the oxtail with rice. The price $20.00 ok...worth it IF....IFFFFFFF it was good...it was NOT!!!! Hubby needs a double dose of blood pressure medication today! Super salty, just like the salt blocks I used to feed my hamsters! Side note: It says Puerto Rican restaurant- only the decorations were PR! NOT authentic Puerto Rican food AT ALL!

Came in on a Saturday at around 11:45 and there were already a few people ordering takeout. To start, we had an alcapurria (fritter) to share. The flavor was good but I wish there was more pork filling inside and that it was a little less oily. I ordered the Cuban, which they said would take 10-15 minutes. My BF had some plate of rice and pork (premade) with plantains. Both are pretty large portions and we were only able to eat half. He said his dish was pretty greasy. I tried it and it wasn't bad but I'm glad I got my Cuban. My other complaint was that I wish they had other hot sauces besides Texas Pete. We found this place because we were looking for a quick/cheap lunch spot in the area, but I don't think I liked it enough to come back.

The pork pasteles were great. Flavor was really good. The empanadas also were good. Local shop with great food from Puerto Rico
