El Amanecer is a family-run spot that offers authentic Puerto Rican food in a casual, outdoor setting. The restaurant is more like a stand with patio seating, open Thursday through Sunday, and currently only accepts cash, Zelle, or Cash App. The menu features traditional dishes such as arroz con gandules, pastelle, pork chop with white rice & beans, maduros, and mofongo with pork, all prepared with care and full of flavor. Many customers highlight the food’s deliciousness, freshness, and authenticity, reminding them of dishes from home. The servings are generous, often providing leftovers for later. The owner is friendly, helpful, and always attentive to customers, creating a welcoming atmosphere. The location offers a pleasant water view, making it an enjoyable place to dine outdoors. Despite limited hours and no indoor seating, visitors appreciate the quality of the food and the warm service. El Amanecer is considered a hidden gem and a must-visit for those craving Puerto Rican cuisine. Overall, it’s a highly recommended spot for flavorful, traditional dishes in a friendly, family-owned environment.
