I ordered the large roasted pork and it was incredible: salty, shredded, tender goodness. Reminded me of Michoacan style carnitas but shredded. A fantastic pairing to their perfect yellow rice. What really took this over the top were the black beans. Not sure if the pork or the beans were the star of this show as both were equally mind blowing. One of the best meals I've had in a while. Pro tip: a large meal is more than enough for 2 people. It comes with 1 protein and 2 sides.

Their pics are on the wall and their story of the celebrities are on the napkin holders. Now you will find Puerto Rican rotisserie chicken - moist and tasty. Not dry! You will find other excellent Puerto Rican fare here - roasted pork, mofongo, trifongo, empanadas, alcapurrias, rice con gandules. We ordered a 1/2 chicken entree with sweet plantains. Our other entree is their pastelon. This is a must try. It's sweet plantain lasagna. Instead of noodles it's sweet plantains. Sweet and savory heaven here. You pick the two sides. I picked yuca with mojo(I ordered this for my hubby) along with it, sweet plantains. So good and so big and great price. They also give you some yummy samples - bread pudding and another pudding with coquito l. They also sell coquito which is the traditional coconut liquor drink to die for, served at Christmas Service is A+!!! Friendly, Helpful, Engaging!!! So glad we came here!!

The pork was succulent! I added a chicarone and it was crunchy and delicious! I would definitely recommend! We had so many leftover sides that I made fried rice the following day and added the Yuca to my pot roast on another meal. What impressed me, was they forgot the green banana salad in my order and called me to tell me while I was on my way home. Soooo sweet of them! I will try them again!

The joint is a small Cuban/Puerto Rican restaurant in a local strip mall. You can find Cuban…read moresandwiches, but also some get some PR specials, like Mofongo. The ambiance is strip mall. Service was what I expected from a small family owned Cuban joint. The food is nice. I ordered the Tripleta, which is a Cuban with Cuban Steak added (in addition to the pork and ham). Nicely pressed, great flavor. I also had to get a small mofongo. If you have not had it before, Mofongo is plantains with onions and spices, rolled up into a ball and cooked. It is served with chicken broth, which you will definitely understand should you decide to eat mofongo without it (plantains, unlike bananas, will dry you out). As for the million dollar question? Yes, I will go back some time.

After partying and walking into the area we could hear some PR merengue playing. It made more sense as we rounded the corner and saw the food truck. We made note to stop by after our excursion (and had a wallet in hand then) to grab something on our way out. We did, and grabbed the cod fritter, a Malta and three empanadas. My gal liked the cod a lot, wasn't my thing. The empanadas were all very tasty. Beef, chicken, and guava cheese. It was a nice bite to energize our drive home.

Many chicken and pork selections; several rice, bean, fish, vegetable and salad dishes that are usually very tasty. Had the tilapia daily special.

Mind you it was about 80 degrees outside :/ We decided to sit right next to these not even realizing what it was and ate for about an hour. As we were leaving I noticed WHAT it was & am absolutely disgusted We live in Florida , one of the hottest states in America & it was out for a very long time I hope they threw all this food away It's absolutely contaminated as it definitely could possibly give food Bourne illnesses to not only people but especially pregnant people I've been experiencing terrible stomach pains, throwing up almost anything and everything I ate along with this food Also we called and told the Ownerr about it and he came outside & touched it & went back inside to his rush hour line he most likely had & said on the phone "it was just delivered" Which no it was not , it was literally defrosting in the heat & I physically touched the food to check how warm it could've been as well as it was directly under the hot sun So HOPEFULLY he took it inside & made the right decision to just throw it back out and call it a loss but when I touched it , it was basically warm to touch and it was a bunch of frozen stuff... yuck
