    El Paso, TX | Cassava Craving a taste of Puerto Rico? This east-side gem serves up authentic, mouthwatering dishes made in-house from scratch, bringing every bite to life with delicious, unforgettable flavor. Everything I had was so yummy, I will definitely be back! You for sure have to try the potato sticks with their special sauce. The whole staff was very friendly and attentive, they made me feel so special. Truly was a great experience! If you're feeling those Puerto Rican vibes, make sure to stop by and check it out!

    The food is delicious. I can't find a word to explain how good the food is. It is well seasoned and cooked. This has been the best Puerto Rican food Ive had in my life. The service is outstanding. We were greeted and served by a gentleman who was kind enough to explain the menu to us. He also served us samples of their fresh juice. Make sure to try the Parcha juice. It has a great taste. The restaurant is very clean. You can enjoy your food while listening to nice music.

    Coquito...Puerto Rican eggnog
    Lisa A.

    I have yet to try Puerto Rican cuisine! However, I've had coquito aka Puerto Rican egg nog many times during the holidays. My sister is married to a Puerto Rican so she learned how to make it. She doesn't cook that much but she can make a mean coquito. She didn't come home for Christmas this year, unfortunately. I decided to buy coquito from Cassava. It was one of the best decisions I've ever made! The coquito is delicious from here. It's on the sweet and rich side but it was perfect for me. It's non-alcoholic but no biggie, I can add Bacardi (or vodka) if I want. I haven't done that yet. They also have pistachio and Nutella coquito. I've never tasted or heard of those flavors of coquito before! Maybe some other time? Cassava also offers several desserts and bread for sale. There's cooking classes and catering, too. I LOVE tres leches cake (three milks cake) so I knew I had to try theirs. It was also amazing! It was fluffy but not too soggy. It had just the right amount of sweetness to it. I've had many slices of tres leches cake in my life. I would have to say theirs is one of the best I've ever had. I gobbled that bad boy up QUICK! I was so into it, I forgot to take a photo! Lol. Oops! Maybe next time? The coquito runs at $11-14 and the tres leches cake cup was $3.50 or $4. The young lady who was helping me with my order was very nice and friendly. I would definitely consider trying Cassava's food in the near future. You can order it from Uber Eats here on Yelp and/or Doordash. I'm sure their food is just as tasty as their coquito and tres leches cake. Let's continue to support local businesses!

    So glad I came across this place. I almost caused an accident doing a U-turn where I probably shouldn't have  when I saw the sign.

    Go figure that on my 1st full day in El Paso after moving here from Orlando, Florida I find this place not looking for it. And I was craving Quesitos. I drove down the street and when I saw the sign, I did the fastest U-Turn and pulled in. Walking in, I knew it smelled like home. I grew up in Puerto Rico and can alway smell La panadería de la esquina en Carolina. When you walk in you can smell the bread . Heavenly I tell you. I ordered a quesito and a budin. They were both so good and what I needed. Now if I could just find an Alcapurria I would be set . This place is awesome and close to my house

    Churrifongo: WHEN CHIMICHURRI STEAK MEETS THE BIG MOFONGO
    Vic F.

    CASSAVA IS SUSTENANCE, CASSAVA IS LIFE Cassava is sustenance, Cassava is life. It is a staple in many diets and fuels the tropics with its rich carbohydrates and cultural influence. Here in El Paso, Cassava reincarnates the passionate spirit of Puerto Rican cuisine. From savoury dishes to decadent sweets, Cassava invites you to a festive experience, like an edible postcard from the Caribbean. Never forget the small, yet mighty flavours of this rich port of the tropics and island of enchantment. The FOOD: Churrifongo: WHEN CHIMICHURRI STEAK MEETS THE BIG MOFONGO To call this meat and potatoes would be a big understatement. The Churrifongo is a beef skirt steak roulade (meat roll up) stuffed with mofongo, a deliciously savoury mash of fried plantains with garlic, salt, oil, and various spices. Mofongo is like mashed potatoes taken to the next level and enhanced by a ton of flavour. The beef skirt steak was juicy and robust, which was balanced by a side salad and yellow rice with earthy green pigeon beans. The steak is both tender and chewy at the same time, but retains a lot of the beefy flavour. The chimichurri sauce provides an earthy and herbal taste suspended in oil. The VERDICT: DELICACIES FROM THE RICH PORT, THE ISLAND OF ENCHANTMENT Each culture has cuisine that is intimately interwoven into their history. It is their way of life. It is how they stand the test of time. It is who they are. Cassava represents times of celebration and honors the times of struggle that allow us to appreciate what we have. The Churrifongo is a fancy celebration of Puerto Rican cuisine with a cut of skirt steak wrapped around the cultural staple of mofongo, the heavenly stepbrother of mashed potatoes, but with an intensity of spices and flavours. If you want a dish with a ton of umami flavour, then definitely try the Churrifongo or any of the mofongo, bifongo, or trifongo. I will definitely be back to try the Puerto Rican desserts and really embrace the baked goods.

Swings, plants, art-covered walls... it's an Instagram dream. There's plenty of seating both indoors and outdoors. Inside theres couches, tables, bar tops, and lots of outlets if you want to get some work done. Outside is bright, open, and honestly super cute.

It's a great coffee spot for friends, dates or work/business. Parking is easy - free surface lot. Staff is always really friendly, helpful and enthusiastic. They do get backed up sometimes but the drinks are worth the wait. Only minus is that the food options are limited and lackluster other than the empanadas (which can sell out.) I wish they would add better pastry options, and another savory food option!

When we first pulled up, there were only two cars in the parking lot, so we assumed it was pretty empty inside. It was. There were about 4 people in there. No one checked our ID, or greeted us. The interior was nice and modern looking. The bartender (possibly manager?) approached us and asked if we wanted anything to drink. We didn't, not right away. We just wanted to check it out. As my girl and I sat on the couch for about 5-10 minutes, the bartender came back and told us "You guys can't just sit there. If you're not going to get anything to drink, I'm going to have to ask you guys to leave." So, we left. Not to mention, my girlfriend was working on setting up the app they had, so she could play music requests. But, the bartender just approached us in a rude manner and was pretty straightforward that if you don't pay to buy something to drink, you're gonna get kicked out. So, just keep that in mind guys. We then went to La Mina Bar & Night Club - and they were so much more friendly; didn't force you to buy a drink, either!

But it just opened 3 months ago so we wanted to give it a try. We were chillin and then I'm guessing the guy that owns the club/bar or the manager was like "since you guys aren't buying drinks, I'm going to have to kick you out. You guys can't just sit here." I was baffled. We had just got there like literally for 5 minutes. I've never been kicked out of a bar before for not buying drinks. I just said "okay" and we walked out. I didn't know how to respond or react. We went to another club/bar called La Mina Bar and Night Club. Before we sat down I asked the bartender if he'd kick us out if we didn't order drinks and he said no. I've been to other clubs and even when i didn't buy drinks they never kicked me out. By the way highly recommend La Mina Bar and Night club. The music was amazing and everyone was nice. So keep in mind that in order for you to say at Latin Quarters New York, you have to purchase a beverage or they'll kick you out. Do not recommend Latin Quarters New York.
