I Order the pernil with rice and beans and Platanos. I always get a dessert. I’ve ordered just about everything on the menu already. They have individual servings and for groups. I recommend to friends, family, businesses and group gathering’s. They never disappoint. Been a loyal customer for over 20 years now. I always get wine. Beautiful decor welcoming clean amazing fast service

This place is just a joke. Let’s start with the language barrier which prevents the employee from actually understanding the other. Secondly, I was charged $10.99 for rice, beans, red onion and a few plantain. I made an inquiry as to the price and she was adamant about the charge until the manager came over and stated it was $9.25 - still overpriced but fine. We paid and left only to get in the car and realize I was given someone else’s order which had meat, cheese, etc. We returned the food and got a full refund. There is no reason to charge the same price for a meat free dish as you charge for a meat dish, it simply does not work like that. I will never return and I suggest you not waste your money or time here either.

This place would be a 5 But because of there food sometimes. Everything feels like it covered with salt and grease sometimes but overall it's NOT half as bad as some places I know such as the one from Boston road. In terms of customer service, they are very polite and they do take their time with their customers and the food isn't that bad. I highly recommend this place if you need a quick bite to eat or looking for a spot to eat with your friends/family. They're super friendly and the atmosphere feels cozy. They have potential to be a great restaurant if they change their cook or something lol, like I said before food at times can be extremely greasy or salty which is extremely unhealthy but overall it isn't a bad place. Highly recommend this place for sure

Food is tasty. However, prices varies depending on the race. This place is very racist towards black people. Six dollar soup is 7.50 for black people. I will not spend another dime there. My comment stems from a six month observation.

My mom was in the hospital not too far and I was looking for some Spanish food and came across this place. I had mangu for breakfast and it was amazing!!! I absolutely loved it, didn’t get to take a picture because I was so hungry but it def gets a 10/10…I went back for lunch and once again did not disappoint, I got yellow rice with Pernil and maduros and a accapuria and it was one of the best I’ve had!!! This place is definitely doing their thing!! I live in Pennsylvania and I’m not out here as often but I will definitely be back any time I come out here.

I am 1st time customer here. I am so surprised about the price. They gave me a lot of food, which is half chiken and rice and bean with gravy and onions. That cost only $8.75
Coming back again for sure.
