When you see Hispanic patrons frequenting the restaurant you know you are eating authentic cuisine from people who know amazing Puerto Rican cuisine! The owners are just beautiful people inside and out!!! I'm so glad they are in Salem! I've had almost everything on the menu! I absolutely love the food!!! There are people who drive distances to get their favorite dishes! I'm a fan of the garlic chicken, the rice and beans, the chicken soup, the plantains, the pastelles, the mofongo is amazing!!!! And don't get me started on the desserts!!! My fav restaurant within a 50 mile radius!

My food was amazing last week, leading me to go back to the restaurant again this weekend. We took…read moreout for lunch on Saturday. It was not crowded at lunch, but we got there when it first opened. We looked at the food up front, and inquired about the things that looked good. We ordered the pernil, sweet plantains, goat, skirt steak, winter squash stuffed with chicken, shrimp ceviche, mashed potatoes, yellow rice & beans, and tres leches. That was a lot of food- and we had it for lunch and dinner. We have leftovers for tomorrow. Everything was delicious. I usually don't like mashed potatoes at restaurants, but I liked these. My husband and I reviewed which food was our favorite. He liked the skirt steak with the yellow rice and beans. I think I like the goat with the rice and beans. I usually don't Iike rice, but I am a fan of rice and beans. I didn't get chicken thighs and legs that looked good, because we ordered so much food. The person behind the counter was very friendly and hopeful. The restaurant was still clean.

Okay so listen--being a Dominican in Chicago and now Fresno means I've been living in a…read moreplantain-less wilderness for YEARS. But then I walked into this spot and was immediately hit with the holy trinity: merengue, típico, and bachata blasting like it was a Saturday in Santiago. First off, shoutout to Christine--our waitress--who was sweet, chill, and had us feeling like VIPs. Then there's Jasmine, aka the Mamajuana Queen . She knew my happiness window was limited, so she made it her mission to turn the vibe ALL the way up. And then... she hit us with the cured Mamajuana shots. Not just a drink--this was ancestral medicine. Now let's talk FOOD. Dominican sushi. Yes. Tres. Golpes. In. A. Sushi. Roll. I almost cried. Then came the skirt steak with tostones and baby, let me tell you... I've never looked at a plate with that much respect. My husband had pork chops with arroz y habichuelas, and my friend smashed the chimi tostones like it was her last meal on Earth. The place? Clean. Cute. Culture-rich. And if you're not ready to go home after dinner, guess what? There's a club upstairs. That's right--dinner downstairs, dance battle upstairs. Dominican efficiency at its finest. Final verdict: This spot is a whole experience. Not just food--this is a vibe, a reunion, a spiritual realignment. If you're Dominican and homesick, GO. If you're not Dominican but love flavor and joy, GO. If you don't like this place... honestly, I can't trust your taste buds.

I also got two empanadas: one pizza, one beef, and cheese--those were a major hit, 5/5! I will be going back in the future to try all the other options they have because there's a lot to try

El Jibarito has a window to order takeout from and a backyard area with tables if you want to eat onsite. I liked the casual vibe of this restaurant. My fella had a pernil sandwich that he said was one of the best he's had, and my friend had a pernil plate. I had the mofongo with shrimp. The shrimp were really good and I liked that the mofongo didn't have chicharron in it, although it was a little dry. Overall great meal and experience and it was nice to meet the owner who was a sweetheart. I watched a steady stream of customers come and go while I was there, so its safe to say El Jibarito is a popular eatery in Lancaster.

My stomach and my heart are so happy, El Rincon Criollo has been on my radar for a while, and now that I've finally had their amazing food, I am already planning my next visit ( and next time, I'll drive instead of bike!!) Situated in Spring City, conveniently off the Schuylkill River Trail, The Latin Corner is accessible by foot, by bike, and by car. You have no excuse not to visit! This place is like a warm blanket. Comforting, homey, and incredibly delicious, I don't think you can go wrong with your order here. Everything is handmade with love by the owners, who are so kind and welcoming that I was tempted to spend the entire day here. If you're ever in the area and need a hearty meal- don't sleep on The Latin Corner!

The potato salad was smooth with some chunks of potatoes and a light crunch from the veggies. My favorite was the beans that pair perfectly with the rice and meat! All this for only $12!!! Wow! I highly recommend it. I also tried their beef empanadas. They were excellent. They're fried to order and homemade. There's a lot of filling and the beef inside is perfectly seasoned. The last time I had empanadas this good was at my Puerto Rican friend's house where his grandma made them! A close second was in Rincon, Puerto Rico. These are that good. They're a must try. This a lovely local neighborhood corner takeout restaurant. You can call ahead to order your food to avoid the the wait. The owner and staff are all very friendly and happy to answer any questions and provide recommendations. They have a tv in the waiting area and some drinks for sale. Inside is very clean and everything looks new and well organized. The food all homemade and delicious. Portions are very generous and a great value for what the charge. I'm looking forward to trying more of their food. I highly recommend it! It's definitely worth a trip to check it out. Support your local restaurants.
