My husband and I ate here today! Service was excellent and the food was amazing! I’m not sure if the server knew I was new to Puerto Rican food, but he thoroughly explained the menu and provided a recommendation, which was amazing! My husband and I both enjoyed our main dishes and had a empanada…which was to die for! The price was also very reasonable. We will definitely be back!
