“I have been to Bistro Taino several times including for a special birthday dinner and it never disappoints. Tonight I went with some coworkers and as always everything was so good. We shared the crabmeat empanadas and each had the bifongo as entrees with chicken, steak, and seafood. We also shared the coconut tembleque for dessert. Special shout out to our server, Arianni, she was amazing! Friendly, attentive, and personable. Great service, food and ambiance, can’t ask for more. Thank you Bistro Taino for always making it a great experience.“

“Great service thank you to Casandra for taking care of our table. And thank you for security for their great job in letting my son in.“

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

“Amazing food and a warm, inviting atmosphere that feels like a little slice of Puerto Rico! The flavors are authentic, and every bite takes me right back to my island. The owners have poured so much love into the new location, beautifully painting different stories that showcase the rich history of Puerto Rico. Their dedication to creating a welcoming environment is evident in every detail. I also deeply respect how involved they are with the community—it’s inspiring to see a business so committed to making a positive impact. Highly recommend!“

“Lechonera La Piraña is incredible! The lechon is crispy, juicy, and packed with flavor — easily some of the best in the city. The portions are huge, the sides are delicious, and everything tastes homemade. The vibe is chill and full of good energy, and the people are super friendly. Real deal Puerto Rican food that never disappoints“

“Best pernil and chicharrón ever“

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

“The food is great here! Really home cooked taste. Very reasonable also.“

“que se come muy rico y barato y la atención es de primera“

“Food was delicious. Bacalao Guisado with Rice n Pink beans was excellent not salty and real bacalao not Pollock. My friend had a Palomillo steak wrap in a plantain which was succulent. The Alcapurrias though a little over fried had the taste of a kiosko in Puerto Rico. We topped it off with 2 Medalla beers. Overall the food is authentic. Our server Amar was very attentive, and courteous. Will come again with more friends so they can see the difference between Caridad franchises, and an authentic Criollo restaurant“

“Came here a few days ago for drinks and the experience was wonderful. I had never had a guanabana frozen margarita before and it was delicious and so was the food. The bartender Shalamar was attentive and helpful when I didn’t know what to choose because they had so many options that I had never tried before, so I would highly recommend this place.“

“The food here was great❕️Authentic Puerto Rican🇵🇷 style Lechon with arroz con gandules. I like how the place is outside & inside, it felt like i was back on the island in PR.🇵🇷 It's in the cut, but it's a chill small place with good reggaeton music being played. I recommend. 🏙🔊🎶🏝🇵🇷 🐷🍗🥩🍛🍚🍴🥤🐸👍🏽“

“It’s a excellent place to spend time with your family and friends in The Bronx, excellent service“

“The service and food is amazing! Love the vibe“

“absolutely delicious 😋 food, anything they cook is amazing.“

“Food was okay not the best I won’t lie but good price for what it is however the service are so sweet as 67 year old lady there was a girl called Sophie who was so patient with me so if you see this Sophie thank you! The atmosphere was good however it was a bit loud but I would guess that. If anyone finds the Olivia who owns this place tell her we have the same name.“

“Havent been here in years (15+ years) and was in town and decided to stop in like I used to years ago before heading back out of town to go home and was kind of disappointed that the food is nothing like I remembered it to be. It was just cold and no flavor.“

“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!“

“Great food and service. Just moved here in the area and all I want is Spanish good for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Everything’s well done and juicy! (Pause) I recommend boneless chicken, white rice, red beans and salad. In the morning mungu, cheese, salami and eggs or a sandwich.“

“Their chai pancakes were one of my favorite things from my trip. Vegan options are clearly marked, and they have a little market along with locally made art for sale. It’s a renovated church and has a cool community feel to it. Updated from previous review on 2026-01-18“

“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.“

“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.“

“Reasonable prices. The food is so good 😋. The restaurant is packed, but I recommend it because the food is so worth it. I had rice and beans, mofongo plain with fried cheese on the side, and garlic on the side for the mofongo. It was slamming! They serve it with a salad 😋👍🏼. A must try.“

“Willie's Steak House has Salsa Dancing Fridays and Saturdays. Food is regular The Barmaid Mariana is very professional and a hard worker knows how to treat her customers without her the bar is not the same.“

“Excellent! Visited from upstate Ny and they were so amazing to me and the family. My daughter loved their food and loved their potatoes in their stew chicken and they made my daughter feel special by giving her extra while eating and to take home . Felt like I was with family. Great food great everything don’t let the negative reviews keep you away, I Will be back !“

“The food is very good, the owner is very nice person, the guys from the delibre are very good person but the person who works in the afternoon and a skinny one there talk to you as if you were a dog, you ask for chicken and they send you goat, you ask for oatmeal and They send you a mess of coffee but if they manage to send you what you really ordered the place is 5 stars“

“I've been going to this place for over 20+ years with my family! It remains one of the best places to get crispy pork and rice and beans in the bronx! New owners have come along and other dishes they sell dont really hold up to the level of the pork. Stick with the crispy pork and you will be in 5 star heaven!“

“The food was incredibly delicious and lots of great selections. It's a hot food bar so there is no waiting. I even was surprised to find something I never tried from PR. Only thing missing are actual seats to eat at the dinning counter. There are just the stubs for the seat“

“The food and atmosphere was very good , and there is parking right in front of the restaurant. The woman working there is very helpful, hardworking , and pleasant. The meat portion was very small however, and so lunch felt like it mostly consisted of rice and beans.“

“This review is long overdue! This is my FAVORITE Spanish restaurant ever. Their chicken is juicy and tasty, along side the mojito sauce; Amazing! They never fail, I’ve been going to them for over 8 years now. So good that I moved and still travel to eat from them.“
