Puerto Rican Restaurants near Pembroke Pines, FL

“Best Puerto Rican food I’ve had in the 12 years. I’ve lived here in Florida. The customer service is amazing. The food taste like it just came off your grandmother‘s stove.“

“I have to say, Coquito Key makes the best coquito I’ve ever had. It tastes homemade — creamy, perfectly spiced, and not too strong, just right. The flavor brings me right back to family gatherings during the holidays. You can tell it’s made with love and real ingredients. I’ve shared it with friends and everyone asked where I got it. If you love authentic coquito, this is the one to get. Absolutely amazing every single time.“

“I made the mistake (?) of ordering the amazing “Chuleta Kan Kan” while dining alone. This beast of a pork chop masterpiece was amazingly delicious—no matter where I cut into it.

Be prepared to speak some Spanish, or just try! Use your translation app—give it some effort. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, even though they probably laughed at me and my order later.

As a bonus, it was someone’s birthday, and I witnessed some seriously native-level guiro technique—by a waitress who seemed to be a new hire. It was a great joy to experience genuine food and culture simultaneously.“

“Good food and reasonable prices. Mucha Medalla Light.“

“I have been to Casa Borinquen a couple of times. First of all, both times, I started with an Alcapuria. Hands down, they have the best Alcapuria I have ever had. It is nice and crispy on the outside and the inside is super flavorful with the right amount of filling. It is worth going to Casa Borinquen for the Alcapuria, but wait. The monfongo is also awesome. I had it once with "carne frita" and then with "bistec encebollado", both were great. Go to Casa Borinquen, you will love the food and the quaint ambiance of the restaurant, and their friendly staff, and you will keep going back!“

“Great food. Excellent service. The Fried Rice was awesome !! Igualito a él de PR !!“
