El Pegao Restaurant

Fue una tremenda experiencia. Buenísima comida, servicio bien bueno y con mucho cariño y la comida es perfecta. Compre mofongo con churrasco y mi esposo mofongo con carne frita. Y ambas comidas estuvieron exquisitas ☺️. Estuvimos buscando donde comer que no fuera la misma salida de siempre y este restaurante nos dio exactamente lo que buscábamos. Comida rica, precios completamente apropiados y atmósfera perfecta! Bien kids-friendly y se les nota como les gusta servir al cliente como si fuesen de la casa! Me encantó! Gracias por el buen trato y la comida riquísima ! Dios los bendiga !

Por primera vez probé Cuajito y me gustó. El día estaba lluvioso y me cayó como anillo al dedo! Cada comida que pruebo me gusta más! Gracias chicos hasta la próxima!!!!

First timers and the food was amazing, owners were engaging, very nice and very helpful. Can’t believe how good it was. We will definitely be returning for our authentic Puerto Rico food cravings. 100% delicious

Placed an order through the too good to go app. Very excited to try it since I'd never heard of it before. I usually will use the good to go app to try different types of food that I'm not familiar with. Very disappointed. Received spaghetti and meatballs with mashed potatoes and beans and nasty wilted salad. I expected to receive Puerto Rican food since it is a Puerto Rican restaurant not sure how I ended up with spaghetti and meatballs. I imagine their actual food is good. BUT DONT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY IF ORDERING THROUGH THE TOO GOOD TO GO APP. You will not get anything good! But for $5 if you're hungry and last resort. Go for it. Just my experience!

You have to go here! WE LOVED IT!!! I heard about this place by accident, but I'm telling you it was not accident, the food is amazing!!! Chef Alameda is very talented and needs to be recognized for her true authentic and beautiful food of Puerto Rico. She shows her talent in sharing these flavorful recipes with all of us from her family. Thank you CHEF!!!

We ordered the typical dish and it was supposed to have pastel, and the menu said so, we scanned it and that menu showed that the dish had pastel, surprised that when they brought us the plate it didn't have pastel. We spoke to the waitress about it and she said that it wasn't the correct menu, a lie because if it was their menu it's the one they have on their wall to scan. Then the owner arrived to ask us what had happened and my husband told her our concern, instead of helping us and being nice, after talking to her she practically ran out of the restaurant without me even finishing my plate of food, which despite not having any because of what we arrived at the restaurant, which wasn't what we thought, we stayed! A lack of respect and poor treatment of customers!

I can honestly say this is my favorite Puerto Rican restaurant in Jacksonville! What I love the most is that it is not salty or two garlic but it’s full of flavor!
