Latin Soul is a neighborhood staple that opened pre-Pandemic so it's been around a while now. When…read moreyou walk in, a giant mural on one wall greets you. To the left is a long counter/steam table behind glass. To the right is seating. Beyond the cashier is where desserts and drinks are stored. There is a rest room in the back. This is a relatively nice set up but it is also no frills. This space has clearly had several other identities over the years. My go to dish is rice with peas and pernil. I will also add in a side order of maduros. The rice is always delicious and perfectly cooked. The pernail is cut fresh to order as it sits in a steam table tray of its own juices. The crispy skin sits on top and they cut pieces for you with your order. Be sure to ask them to scoop some gravy onto your meat and rice! The pernil is perfectly seasoned. Not too salty, not under-seasoned and it has a great texture. It is never dry or chewy (in my experience anyway). The maduros vary visit to visit. Sometimes they are perfectly cooked and sweet, other times they are a bit too soggy. Just eyeball them before you order. While pernil is my "go to" dish, I have also had their turkey in the past. Turkey is hard to keep moist, even if it's sitting in a steam table tray of broth. I will say this, if you get it fairly fresh the turkey is tender and has great flavor. Again, eyeball it before ordering. There is staff turnover at Latin Soul, so my experience with the person serving me has ranged over the years. Years ago there was one person who was super nice and friendly. Then for a while a different person took over who seemed often eager for me to leave. More recently however the staff has been very nice and friendly. Your mileage will vary. Latin Soul is great. It's one of my favorite places to go on this stretch of Elmora. Definitely give them a shot!

I also tried the flan which was just right and not overpoweringly sweet which can often be found at some restaurants. This place gets everything just right.

I also ordered the sancocho, since it's one of my favorite Dominican dishes. The rice was ok, but the beef in the carne guisada was very dry. Unfortunately, the sancocho lacked flavor and I only ate about 1/4 of the bowl. Perhaps I dropped in on a bad day?
