“Stepping in to Guarapo transported me back to my times living Miami. The food was a blend of Puerto Rican, Colombian, and Mexican food, taking the best from each place and turning it into their own. We tried the shrimp soup and oxtail dish which was perfect. Oxtail was succulent and soft and the tostones that comes with the soup was probably the best I've had. Definitely worth checking out. Nora was great!“

“is like puerto rico good food“

“They would get 5 stars if they knew how to make pasteles. Love the food but one thing the chef cannot make puerto rican pasteles. It taste like he mainly put green plantain instead of green banana. Plus I can taste the vinegar from the olives. You do not put the vinegar from the olives at all. Chef, for the pasteles you need for every bunch of bananas you need 1 green plantain 1 medium yautia, 1 potatoe, and one hand piece of pumpkin. Plus it need that puerto rican condiment taste which it did not have.“

“A tiny place, but what it lacks in size, it certainly makes up in cuisine.

It was my first time ordering from here, and I will definitely be back. I ordered the pollo guisado, arroz con pollo, and tostones. Very flavorful and delicious.
The portions were enough for leftovers.“
