We came in here pretty close to closing. Thankfully we were seated and got to order everything we wanted. All the food was amazing, I had a lechón jibarito with white rice and beans and tostones. Everything was cooked too perfection and we will definitely be back again

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Walking into El Gustazo Boricua felt like walking back home. The food was beyond amazing—full of flavor, fresh, and made with so much love. What made it even more special is that the owner is from my hometown, Yauco 💛🖤🇵🇷. I felt so welcomed and comfortable, like I was sitting at a family table. If you want authentic Puerto Rican food that truly tastes like home, this is the spot! 💯

Another “tik tok catfish,” if you are hungry and want some food, DON’T GO HERE. The only enjoyable thing we ordered was the pincho.
However everything else was not enjoyable or had any flavor.

The pork chop was 1 minute away from being Jerky. It was soo over cook we couldn’t eat it.

The way the beans looked I was ready to treat apart. However that didn’t happen, flavorless no salt, it seems it was missing sofrito all together.

The patch’s was instant and was enjoyable.

Stay away!!

10 out of 10
From the Jibaritos, chuletas fritas and mofongos
Everything was fresh and on point! Would definitely come back! If you want to be serve fast then maybe you should consider a fast food restaurant!
Make sure to try the Parcha drink and the pastelillo de guava!

We arrived at 6:30pm as we open the door the waiter look at us and say we are out of everything and keep on walking. No hi or sorry or anything, a dude outside (that looks like the owner) told us to go somewhere else because no food was left. On a Saturday afternoon?nevertheless the burning smoke smelling was overpowering. Just horrible I would give them -0

The arroz con gandules was garbage, I ordered a jibarito sandwich with arroz con gandules. The best thing was the plátanos that they used for the sandwich. They didn't have bistec so I said fine I'll take lechón, they filled it with half only to make the sandwich, and then the lechón was hard and they put a big piece of fat to fill it, totally ridiculous, they need to fix their a/c everyone sweating I had to take it to go if not I would of changed it!
