I wish i could give it 5 stars because it's been great, previously. But it was so bad this time, i probably will never go back. She gave me attitude for asking about my order after arriving 20 minutes after i placed it, 45 minutes later we received our food, but... cold? Get home and half our order wrong, everything burnt to a crisp, steak was completely rubberized, almost broke my teeth on the pork belly and they didnt give us our yucca fries. Tried to call, but they didn't answer.

El Porteñito is an absolute gem! Every single menu item we tried exceeded our expectations. The food was bursting with flavor, perfectly cooked, and served in generous portions. Not only that, but the prices were much more affordable compared to other restaurants like Tinker, making this spot a must-visit. It’s rare to find a place that delivers both quality and value so consistently. If you’re looking for exceptional food, unbeatable prices, and flavors that will leave you wanting more, El Porteñito is the place to go. Highly, highly recommend!

Menu items we tried:
• Arepa Mixta / Mixed Arepa
• Maduritos / Sweet Plantains
• Bandeja Paisa / Paisa Tray
• Empanadas de Carne, Pollo
• Aborrajado
• Patacón / Fried Green Plantain
• Salsas de la Casa / House Sauces

Each dish was much better than expected and truly memorable!
