El Coqui is a restaurant that offers delicious food, including meat dumplings, cod salad, and donuts, which are always fresh. The cheeses are also a highlight. The restaurant has loyal customers, some of whom travel a long distance to eat there. The bakery mimics a traditional bakery found in Puerto Rico, with a more versatile selection that keeps customers coming back home. The food is consistently fresh because the place is always busy, ensuring a constant rotation of dishes. A popular Hispanic option is tembleque, and dishes like pernil with flavorful rice and gandules are highly recommended. While the food quality is excellent, the service can be improved. Customers have noted that the ordering process is unorganized, with no clear lines or system, sometimes allowing people to walk in front of others. Suggestions include adding a rail, tape, or a numbering system to make ordering easier.
