The vibes were lowkey but still lovely on the day we went, there was even a staff member singing karaoke. Food was pretty good!

I picked up a catering order from here and service was friendly. But I was a little disappointed in…read morethe things I ordered. Pastelilo de guayaba barely had guava in it...it was just empty pastries basically. They were not enjoyable. Empanadas were ok, the taste was fine but honestly not that very impressive.

Thanks to FB events I saw El Taino was having a guest singer for Valentine's so I invited some…read morefriends and we joined for a early dinner. The singer had started so the restaurant had a energetic feeling already as I walked in.. The place was decorated all adorable for the occasion..red tablecloths and cute balloons. I ordered a chicken empanada and Sorullo de Maiz.. they are like corn fritters with cheese..sweet and perfectly cooked..my fav now..mmmm I had the Cubando sandwich which came with a nice side of crispy fries. The bread of the Cabano was melt in your mouth delicious.the sandwich was so big I took half home. El Taino has a Miami feel.Its full of family's, couples and friends. It felt more like I was at a party than just having dinner. The service was friendly and those around us also gracious. It's a fun spot and if you know me I like FUN!

Now my wife on the other hand ordered the Chuleta meal which she let me know that the meat had to much seasoning but the rest was good. My kids had the Papa de Rellenos and also the Alcapuria and they really liked it a lot to. The store has potential hopefully they can add more days to eat in the week.

Authentic beef empanada that fresh and tasty. And the shredded pork taco is to die for.read more

I had just left the grocery store with a plan for dinner when I saw this food truck in my…read moreneighborhood. There was no line so I went up to look at the menu to see if anything interested me. I ended up getting the sampler ($12) which came with a taco and an empanada along with rice. I asked the owner for a suggestion with regard to the meat in the taco and he said that he recommended the pulled pork taco and a beef empanada. So that's what I ordered. I also added a side of plantains ($5). When I opened up the container, it looked pretty simple. My expectations honestly we're not that high. But, when I bit into the taco, I knew I was dealing with something pretty exceptional. The smoke on the pork was fantastic and the cilantro lime sauce added an additional layer of flavor along with the pico. I was definitely impressed. The pork was better than most of the barbecue restaurants around town. The beef empanada was also very good. The meat was well seasoned and very moist. While the plantains were a little dark for me and not as soft as I usually like them, I wasn't disappointed with them. I did find the mix of ketchup and mayo a little odd as a dipping sauce for the plantains. They didn't need it so I didn't use it. The portions here were sizable - the empanada and taco were stuffed with meat. The owners were very friendly as they took my order and the wait time was very short. All of this, in addition to the wonderful flavor of the food made this a five-star truck experience. This was definitely a better option than what I was originally planning to eat!

Everything was absolutely delicious, and I will happily be back! From start to finish, the food…read moretasted incredibly fresh, and both our server and the hostess were wonderfully attentive. We came with our three-month-old and were a bit worried about her disturbing other patrons, but the staff was so understanding and accommodating. They sat us at a table with plenty of space for our baby and stroller, which we appreciated so much. The restaurant was also spotlessly clean. My absolute favorite thing was the Trifongo-I don't think l've ever had anything quite like it! The balance of the savory and sweet flavor profile was amazing. I can't wait to return!

Service was not great, they tell you to grab a menu and seat yourself, which was fine but the lady at the front seemed busy and couldnt greet us. Juices tasted watered down, rice tasted almost like it was old. The only great thing here was the steak and the deep fried pork, otherwise we will not be back but this place has potential if they provide better service and keep consistency in their food.

My very first visit brought back fun foodie memories when visiting Puerto Rico several times and eating many homemade dishes when I lived In NJ. My favorite Latin sounds could be heard while outside of the restaurant and more so upon entering. The interior decor was spacious and made me feel like I was away on vacation in P.R. Staff was welcoming and friendly. The owner helped make me feel at home and was super professional. Then came the food and my refreshing non-alcoholic drink. My appetizer was a lobster empanada...Oh my how yummy! One of the lunch specials of the day was a Chinese Puerto Rican fusion style fried rice platter. My choice of protein was the popular fried pork chunks. French fries and an egg roll were included in the platter. Another popular favorite condiment was the "Mayo-Ketchup" sauce that one can drizzle on the food and as much as you please! To help wash down and add a nice sweet balance to the food, I ordered the "Guayaba" fruit juice. Fruity and tropical taste of its own. I skipped breakfast knowing that this visit would require some nice portions to enjoy. I was right and very pleased with the overall taste of the food. If you haven't had Latin food from the Caribbean then hopefully you'll consider visiting Flavorikan and try some of their cuisine. I'm already looking forward to my next visit.
