The food here is incredible a definite 10/10! The jibarritos and arroz con gandules are a must-try. Everything arrived hot and fresh. We also loved the tostones, pastelillos, and rellenos de papa. Even the pollo frito was a huge hit; my daughter absolutely loved it. We will definitely be coming back for more!"

My favorite Puerto Rican food spot! I had to edit my review since I have more pictures of their food and restaurant. Definitely the best Puerto Rican food around every plate feels homemade fresh! Servers are really nice. Wish they had a parking lot.

The food here is super delicious 😋 it was my first time there, with my daughter 😋. We both enjoyed the food and atmosphere. The waitress was very nice, and informative of the menu. Will go back.
