EXCELLENT. We’re a Puerto Rican family and just didn’t feel like cooking this Christmas. Ordered arroz con gandules, pernil, pastelon, mini empanadas, alcapurias, papá rellena, and Pasteles. Everything was PERFECT. We will definitely be back.

El Lechon de Negron is a Puerto Rican restaurant that offers an authentic dining experience. Customers often praise the friendly and attentive staff, making guests feel welcomed. The menu features a variety of classic Puerto Rican dishes, including White Rice and beans, Arroz con Gandules (rice with pigeon peas), juicy pork chops, stewed chicken, and pasteles (Puerto Rican tamales). Many customers enjoy the empanadas (chicken or beef patties) and Alcapurias (taro root and beef fritters). One customer described the stewed chicken and arroz con gandules as plentiful and tasty, highlighting the consistently good Puerto Rican cuisine. The restaurant also offers delicious mofongo with pernil, and on Fridays, bacalaitos are available—an experience not to be missed. Drink options include MALTA INDIA, and the desserts are tasty and legit. Customers appreciate the clean environment, beautiful decor, and the convenience of sturdy catering trays with big, juicy portions. The place has a cozy, home-like atmosphere that reminds many of Puerto Rico, with salsa music playing in the background. The staff is always friendly, and the food is always fresh and well seasoned. Many find Thursday special with Pastelón to be a highlight. Visitors recommend calling ahead for takeout, as wait times are usually around 10-20 minutes. Overall, El Lechon de Negron is well-loved for its authentic flavors, friendly service, and the ability to enjoy a true Puerto Rican meal even at the festival or from afar.
