Went for my bestie bday brunch for 4.
Food was good. Cubano didn't taste like a Cubano but was a good sandwich. Piononos, empanadas, guac & chips were good. Some apps tasted reheated rather than fresh.
The presentation was awesome.
We ordered some apps and one main dish each. There was only one server but it wasn't very busy. One other 6 person table, one couple, and a few individual people eating. If you have a birthday you get one dessert on the house which is sweet.
They forgot to bring the arepas out, and when we told them it was ok but to take it off the bill the server said "I saw you eating the arepas" and doubled down multiple times. When she later went to the kitchen to check and realized she was wrong, she never apologized for her attitude. I won't be back. I don't need
to be on the defensive when I approached you with respect. We were not rude when we asked for it to be taken off the bill, and she was abrasive with her response before even checking if we were right. A sincere apology goes a long way.

As someone who grew up on homemade Puerto Rican food, I can say this was hands down some of the best Puerto Rican food I've had in Manhattan. The flavors were authentic and everything tasted fresh. Service was very good and quick despite being a busy Saturday night. Overall great vibes, the music was good, the drinks were good, the selection of food choices is great (they also have Cuban, Mexican, Dominican dishes). We tried the pernil (roast pork) with arroz con gandules, mofongo with peril and the empanadas /alcapurria. Everything was delicious, but highly recommend the arroz con gandules & mofongo ! The flavors were on point. We will certainly be returning.

Went here last week after seeing them on IG. As a Puerto Rican, the rice insulted me. It’s clearly made in a rice cooker. You can tell by the way the rice held up. Not to mention the food came out cold, literally everything on my plate down to the sweet plantains. Didn’t say anything, as I came from far and was hungry. Pretty sure a lot of these reviews are from people who don’t know any better. Their piña colada okay, but I guess it was cold to compliment my cold meal. Save your cash, and make Puerto Rican friends. Lackluster at best. Save your response, punch air.

I came here during happy hour with one of my friends last month. Although the food here is AMAZING, I didn't get a friendly vibe from the greeter or waitress for our table. Also, when I pointed out a discrepancy between the happy hour cocktail price advertised online and what was posted on the the physical menu, the manager didn't honor the differential. About two weeks later, the online menu was updated to reflect the true price for WELL drinks/cocktails (vs Bodega/Counter/Specialty drinks). While I appreciate the menu adjustment, a tab deduction could have improved our customer service experience at the time of error discovery, especially since we ordered several "happy hour" drinks. IJS! Food and cocktails are good, though.

Made a resy for my GF's post birthday Celebration and the food was amazing & authentic my Latino friends were happy I choose to go here..our cocktails were just ok nothing exceptional but nice enough..our service was definitely lacking we had no flatware or napkins on table and we had to ask when our food was already being served..waitress was not on top of it but she was bubbly & happy and friendly enough to get the job done, although it was not crowded for a Saturday Evening...Overall this place has great food!! & ok ? cocktails...I think music from different latin genre playing would add to the overall atmosphere...Counter & Bodega‼️?⭐⭐⭐
Vegetarian options: Vegetable Monfongo with rice & sweet plantain ?
Dietary restrictions: I'm vegatarian server made me aware of anything that was made with chicken or animal and I appreciated it

The restaurant had a cute decor and the service was good. The food was decent. I ordered pernil and it was very salty. The chicharrón (fried pork skin) that came along with it was not great. I expected a bit more quality with this specific dish.
Amazing spot to enjoy the cuisine from multiple latin cultures. The quality of the food was amazing. And not to mention, the Bartender Kari was really helpful in explaining our drinks and is great at making some delicious cocktails. Definitely will come back to try all the drinks The selection was great. From fruity and savory to spirit forward and bold. Music selection was great as well, and with the decor, it felt like I was actually in Puerto Rico.
