Thank you for your good work, my neighbor I called friend,invited me to have some lunch with her family last Saturday. We took it to go. She was so nice gave me half of her pernil sandwich to taste. It tasted good. Maybe next time I'll go myself to try something for me. I used to come here years ago, stop going. But now I want to try your steak sandwich. I also tasted the arroz con gandules, yummy.

Cute little hidden gem, the staff were all very nice and the service was fast. I got the 10 dollar meal deal so the price is great and there was more than enough food for one person! The food was good but I will say that it was a little garlicky this time around but overall a solid meal.
