Ordered from Uber Eats and wow—it was worth every penny! Definitely a treat since it’s a little on the pricey side, but so worth it. I had the Kan Kan—absolutely delicious. But the mangú? Even better! Honestly, this might be the best Puerto Rican spot in the DMV. Highly recommend!

Everything was great, however being from the Island and Tasting their food it was a bit of a let down, however I do recommend it as it was good, but my expectations of PR food are always high

When you come here you feel just like you're chillin at someone's house and about to get the best food of your life. The team at Qui Qui showed out for an amazing birthday dinner for me and I cannot thank them enough. Def a spot to be!
