It's no surprise that their rotisserie chicken has been labeled "the best in the Poconos." All dishes are made from scratch and reasonably priced. Menu Highlights~ Tender, roasted pork with yellow rice and beans is a cultural staple that is a popular item. Fried pork chops, grilled tilapia, and stew chicken are available in combo meals that include rice, beans, salad, and drinks. The traditional soup known as Sancocho is so good you need to taste it My favorite is some kind of steak sitting in just a brown sauce made in a miracle of seasoning, served over whit rice.

I got yellow rice and it's very bland and has no seasoning or flavor. I can't lie the pork is very good. The beans tho are also very watery and bland with very little flavor. To pay 23 dollars for that is insane. The service was not bad but not great. Definitely go to El Rincon Caribe rather than here!!

A few others were behind me, got their food and after returning 40 min's later, I ended up sitting there for about an hour before giving up and watch everyone with big orders come and go. Tall/big man behind the register acknowledged I was waiting as I exited for a min & returned asking for a drink. Ignored again eternally, as I walked out I said by, he waived his hand, without any apologies or any offer to make up for this horrible incident. Since my order was for one person, I became invisible. GREED and RUDENESS and disgust is what I feel they need to be rated for.
