Puerto Rican Restaurants in New York, NY

“Desde Puerto Rico PAL mundo …el mejor bistec encebollado y mejor pollo desde NY a China“

“We hadn't been here in a while. Looked forward. Start positive: White rice, red beans, and arroz con gandules, very good. However, on a Friday evening (7ish) , there was only 1 server for the entire section. It was not crowded. Empty tables in our section.We placed our orders right away with drinks and an appetizer. We waited more than 30 minutes for our drinks and appetizer. Appetizer never arrived, but our main courses (both the same) did. The fried pork chops were overly cooked - dried excessively. They were more like fried pork chunks. Difficult to eat. Knife had a difficult time cutting the meat. Margarita was subpar at best. Management needs to step up. I am a strong supporter of local restaurants, especially Puerto Rican/Latino establishments. This restaurant is an East Harlem icon. Overall: disappointed.“

“Best pernil and chicharrón ever“

“One of the best places to get delicious Puerto Rican food!“

“They have good food, but I don’t speak spanish…so it’s usually very difficult for me to order. I usually get scared of coming in here due to the language barrier (sometimes there’s a customer that will help translate). I like to get white rice with this slow roasted chicken with sauce, beans, potatoes, and carrots. It’s about $10. The super old grandma is really mean - stay away from her. She won’t put it all in one tray, so she can upsell/upcharge you for each item as a small (a la carte).“

“My dining experience here was simply perfect. They provide welcoming attention in a relaxed setting. The staff has called me by name since my initial visit and stays consistently attentive. Very authentic. I expect to visit this restaurant again.“

“Great food and awesome atmosphere and great 🎶 music“

“Great ambiance and exceptional service. Food was delicious and great drink options!“

“The pasteles were delicious! I took a chance since I saw this add first on Facebook and I was not disappointed. They deliver to NJ at an additional cost. Los pasteles muy ricos!! Me tomé un chance ya que fue en Facebook y sabemos que cualquiera cosa puede suceder y valió la pena. Ellos hacen delivery a NJ a un costo additional. Definitivamente vuelvo a ordenar. Ordené de yuca con pollo y plátano con pollo. Me llegaron 2 de yuca con pernil y también estaban delicioso!“

“very small spot but food was on point and would recommend it to anyone this is real puerto rican food“

“This place has earned my repeated business. The kitchen delivered more than I imagined. The look of this place is incredible. The employees displayed friendliness and menu expertise. After my recent relocation, finding this place was a pleasant surprise.“

“The variety and flavor of the vegan breakfast, lunch, smoothies, coffees are amazing. This restaurant is in walking distance from many hotels. Located in a cool historical art deco building. The staff is friendly and attentive. The food is fresh, and the place has such a cool vibe.“

“The servers are attentive and the kitchen delivers quality. Nothing here hides behind heavy sauces. The rating scale should extend for places like this. The employees deliver outstanding customer support. The entire experience left me wanting nothing more.“

“Absolutely terrible costumer service, a friend and I went in to get some food and we were asking questions and the workers were giving us attitude and ignoring us. I've also noticed a roach on the pizza, This place needs to be shut down. They should not be in business because of the way they be talking to costumers and being rude and nasty. We are not coming here ever again.“
