The restaurant has been a long-standing establishment, with some customers visiting since the 1980s.

The large menu features delicious soups, especially the chicken one, as well as dishes like mangú tres golpes (fried egg, fried cheese, and salami), beef stew with white rice and sweet plantains, and great black beans. The attentive staff provides excellent service, and the food is always plentiful and flavorful. Whether stopping by for a quick meal or catering for special occasions, El Castillo De Jagua 2 delivers delicious food and a warm, welcoming experience. Other menu options include tres leche cake, flan, and various breakfast items and juices at their Rivington Street location.
