Amazing little slice of P.R. right here in Cypress! Wow. The flavor was on point with the carne frita and mofongo. Loved the bacalaitos too. Definitely give them a try. The chef really puts his love of food into these dishes, amazing work Matthew. Thank you all will be back again.

Yesterday I had the good pleasure of visiting El Caribeño Puerto Rican Restaurant. I didn't immediately realize this restaurant was once on Fry road not too far from 290. The restaurant is clean and well appointed. The staff is friendly. The side dishes, the yellow rice and peas and the sweet plantains were well seasoned and delicious. Though, I did want more yellow rice and peas. However, the restaurant still suffers from the same problem it had on Fry road. They overcook the meat. I ordered the pork chops with onions and I expected smothered pork chops seasoned with Puerto Rican spices. Instead I received two overcooked dried out pieces of meat that more resembled wood than something I would recommend anyone eats. I realize pork should be well done, but that was extremely overdone. So my reviews on the restaurant is mixed. If you don't order meat you will be happy with your meal. But if you order meat you will be disappointed as it will be dry, overcooked and hard.

The flavors are spot on!!! I felt like I was in PR eating! So nice to have such high quality food and flavors so close to us in H-Town. We're blessed to be able to have this in the diaspora. Now, beware, they're missing several items from the menu, but you have to understand that they are dealing with a niche audience and it is difficult to carry everything all the time. I hope this place stays open and successful for a long time. I am a 💯 supporter!
