I love this place for a good lunch. I work downtown New Brunswick but this place is worth the walk. The staff is friendly and the food is delicious.

Thanks Poncena! You took me back to my town, Ponce Puerto Rico! The Camarones al Ajillo and YUCA were delicious! I drove 30 minutes for this food from South Plainfield, but IT WAS WORTH IT!!!!!

We ordered the pernil, bistec, and chicharon de pollo and every single thing was delicious. No need for sauce, the flavors were perfect.

I can tell ya what to expect when coming in. Depending on who is working, they can either greet you immediately or sometimes take as long as 5-10 minutes. You don’t have to ask us what we want but a nice hi will go a long way to help it feel like home. I’m not sure if they don’t get paid the best but it shows by there lack of hospitality sometimes. That’s the difference when I’m in my house and thinking do I want to go here or there. You think about how your greeted every time.

Ordered for delivery and they messed up the order. Sent wrong rice and no sauce for mofongo. Their parcha juice was good at least.

This is a small place, but definitely worth the visit! The food and service are excellent. The staff, are so nice and provide great service. The food is delicious – I had three lunches for just $40, which is an amazing deal. Highly recommend this spot!
