Love every moment I hit this spot up. Always buy food to eat then, and some for later! Always get the fried food fresh!!! Unfortunately there isn’t much space to sit, but if you go at the right time, you might get a seat.

Food was okay. Ordered lechón and it was super fatty, hard to taste the flavor of it (a lime would have helped a lot). The habichuelas could have been seasoned better. The alcapurria was pretty good though.

the pernil is trash. tough chunks with no flavor, very bland. i asked for sweet plantain and got home and they werent in there.. so hopefully i wasnt charged. the rice is ok and so is the tres leches but its dry which defeats the whole point…

Very nice food! We chanced upon this on google review and were pleasantly surprised. The lady was nice to describe to us the various items on the menu. The mofongo was interesting and nice. Very tasty chicken stew. We also ordered beef stew and yellow rice. Definitely worth a try

I literally will drive roughly an hour just to get my favorite chicharones here! The best compliment I could possibly give is if you want not good, but AMAZING and AUTHENTIC food that tastes like your abuelita just made it, dine here. It’s a must stop in!!!

Decided to stop here after passing by it to run an errand. We went back to order takeout and weren’t disappointed. Please give this spot a chance.

They have good food, not great food!! A small plate is around $10 to $12 for 1/4 piece of a small potato, 2 tiny chicken. This was overpriced. They work pretty slow, lack on back up food. As a busy restaurant, you must have food back for ongoing services. S cond time going there pretty disappointed.
