Came here with my PR boss/friend for some authentic PR food. This place did not disappoint. My spanish is terrible but I had the PR rice and steak with pickled onions and plantain maduros. My friend had similar but white rice and beans. We also had some fried things, one was potato and beef and the other was something made with plantains. Also tried the roasted pork mofungo. The passion fruit juice was awesome as well. Overall this place had great service(for my friend). This would be a bit harder to order here without knowing Spanish/having someone with you who knows what everything is. Thanks everyone!

Don't never order food from here. It's nasty as hell. The potato balls aint nothing like they used to be.The food is called, they take a long time.And they got attitudes up in here.If you want to attitude, don't come to work, that's just how I feel.And if you try to make some money, don't even do dads, don't waste your time cause they gonna make you wait for a long time for nothing on an order.I never eat nothing from here. And it's too expensive for food that they don't bar from price right?And they cooking it up in there is twenty twenty six , but come on

The chicken breast is not good. The alcapurrias tasted bad. The meat had no flavor. The mofongo was ok. But keeping it real not going there ever 💯 I thought it was highly recommended but nope food not good.
