“Genuinely unbelievable!” is what I heard another guest remark during my meal and truer words couldn’t have been spoken. The food in this local eatery is excellent. Great music, nice decor, warm and friendly environment. The Alcapurria is something I frequently search for in this city and I’m constantly disappointed, but thankfully this was not the case at El Balbiquiu. The portion is also generous (something I found with all the items we ordered). The BBQ sauce had a beautiful hint of thyme and perfect sweetness. The Rib meat literally fell Off the bone. The definition of tender. I can’t wait to go back. I highly recommend this place. Do not miss out on their food.

So, so delicious. We love it here so much… it’s really not good for my waistline! you can’t even pick up the ribs by the bone because the meat just melts right off. The chicharron is crispy but melty at the same time, and the wings are amazing too! The food is amazing not only because it’s actually delicious but also because you can tell it was made with love. Family photos are hung all over the wells, and it truly feels like you’re a part of it when you eat here. Twice they’ve been sold out of the brisket so we haven’t been able to try that yet. I guess that just means we have to go back again!

The food is absolutely spectacular. Great selection of high quality Puerto Rican BBQ. And did I mention that the food is amazing. It was soo good, that we made sure to have leftovers for breakfast the next day. Definitely worth a try.

This place is bomb. Every dish was tasty, every part welol seasoned. We tried the ribs, pulled pork, mofongo with chicken and mac and queso, coleslaw and fries for sides. My daughter begged me for another side of mac and we barely left a crumb on the plate. Here for 2 days and debating going back. It’s definitely worth a try. Sorry I didn’t take pictures: once I started eating I couldn’t stop.

We came for my birthday and had an amazing time. The food was delicious and the service was great. We loved the mac and cheese, brisket, ribs, veggies, corn, cole slaw, chicharrón. We tried a bunch of the dishes in a group and were impressed.

OMG!! I just ordered the chicharrones w/vegetables to go. Hands down the BEST pork belly and vegetables I have ever had in my life! Thank goodness I live a few blocks away.

Perhaps there’s a delicious irony to enjoying juicy BBQ after coming from a full moon yoga meditation but the smoky meats at El Balbiquiu are heaven for a carnivore’s taste buds!
