la Garita always has what I need since there is no PR store nor food where I live. I'll buy here and take it with me 3 hours away and use it back home. prices I am happy and satisfied with. I recommend it to every Borinquen to pass buy. I will try the food one day.
The best Puerto Rican food I have had other than being on the island. Great selections, always fresh and full of flavor.
I ordered the alcapurrias and although not my Dad's, they definitely hit the spit. I will be back to try other things on my visits to SA.
