The serving sizes are large, you definitely get 2 meals out of one. The pernil was delicious, moist & flavorful. The arroz con gandules is decent for a restaurant. I'm very picky though, but it's because I have high expectations. There's nothing like abuela's rice. The tostones are huge! Out of the appetizer platter, I enjoyed the pastelillos most. Service is a bit slow here, or at least the last time I came, and it wasn't that busy. Seems like they might be understaffed. Overall, I enjoy coming to this restaurant. It's definitely a great representation of our culture & the PR staples.

This restaurant is on 20th West, by Pep Boys, tucked way back in the parking lot. You are NOT likely to see this little spot from the street, so put it in your maps and head I over there.

There is only one Puerto Rican restaurant in LA and a take out operation all in the San Fernando Valley.

This was our very first time at Tania LA after finding out about them from Tik Tok. My husband has been wanting Puerto Rican food for sometime now so we decided to give this place a try.

My husband had the mofongo with pork and it was very tasty. Food overall was 10/10. None of the dishes were disappointing at all. We enjoyed everything we ordered. The service was great. The staff is nice and friendly Constantly got asked if we were ok and if we needed anything else. We did have a minor issue with one of our appetizers arriving cold but one of the servers took care of us and brought us a new order. We will definitely come back and dine with you guys.

The chicken was tender and juicy with the same incredible flavor. I forgot what my parents ordered, but I sampled some and I remember it was also good. Service was nice and quick, they explained some parts of the menu to me and my parents. The inside isn't super big but it is decorated very nice--my parents and I sat at a table underneath a flower wall. Definitely need to come back more times and try more of their menu!

I LOVE specialty food markets!…read more El Nuevo Mundo Market specializes in Cuban and Puerto Rican food products with variety of items and produce from Caribbean and Latin American countries. This cute little specialty market has a HOT-FOOD counter that makes delicious Cuban favorites. Ropa Vieja (shredded beef in tomato sauce), Arroz Congri (black beans mixed in rice), Lechon Asado (roasted pork), and Cuban sandwiches. We got some Oxtail Beef Stew that was so tender and delicious! Don't forget the pastries made in house and coffee - all great! Of course you can make everything yourself with ingredients from their store. Beyond groceries, I think they even have Cuban cigars here. The market is immaculate and service is wonderful! There is a small table inside where you can enjoy your coffee and pastries; or meal. Mostly people do takeout. Parking available in the rear back or side residential. Street parking on Gage Ave can be hectic when leaving... I love this place!

I have been following this truck on social media as they are in Rancho Cucamonga every now and…read morethen. I'm totally all for supporting small/family business and was very excited to try their food. I finally placed an order online for 2 entrees and a side. With tax AND tip the total came out close to $40 which I paid with my credit card. When I was filling out their online form, there was an option for Curbside Pick up which I checked. It asked how they would recognize us and I had to provide the Make and Model of our vehicle. In the notes section, I also requested they put our order in the trunk of our car when we arrived. On the day of: ======================= 12:51 PM - Received a text message that our order was ready for pick up. "Once outside, reply HERE to this message or call 323-507-6404 and we'll bring your order to you." 12:51 PM [Us] - "HERE" 12:51 PM [Them] - "Please wait. Someone will be out soon to bring your order to you." 12:52 PM [Us]- "Okay can you put it in the trunk of our car. I parked right in front of you." 1:11 PM [Us]- "Almost ready?" We called the 323 phone number twice and nobody picked up. 1:23 PM [Us] - "Sorry we have to leave, can you cancel our order?" Called the (323) number one more time; no answer. At this point it's 1:30 PM, there's a long line and a lot of people are standing around waiting for their food. My husband has medical issues so there was no way he was going to get out and he would not let me either. We ended up waiting for ~45 minutes before we left around 1:35 PM. I figured I would have to contact them for a refund. I emailed them about the cancellation and requested for a refund. During these times, my husband and I have been EXTRA patient and understanding with businesses so is why we even waited. While disappointed, my husband and I were discussing that we would give them another shot next time they came to our area. 2:45 PM - I get ANOTHER text message saying that our order is ready and to come pick up our food. I replied that we were there 2 hours ago and left already. I had asked to cancel our order. Then a woman calls my cellphone and angrily said that we did not follow instructions and were supposed to check in at the window. I don't understand what the point of "curbside" is then. Plus the text message I received said "Please wait. Someone will be out soon to bring your order to you." which never implied we had to "check in" with them at the window. While my husband was trying to respond to her, she talked over him yelling and hung up on us! We were both surprised at how that was handled. I don't understand why she was so angry when we did follow the instructions provided. Later, I received an email response for my refund request and it basically copied and pasted instructions about having to check in at the window, again making it as though we did something wrong. We WERE willing to give them another try, but after that experience, it totally changed our minds. This was our first time ordering with them so if there was some misunderstanding on either end, I get that, but I thought the instructions were clear that we were doing curbside and someone was going to bring our food to our car. Even if they had apologized for the mix up, we would have returned, but after getting yelled at and hung up on, wow... no thanks. (After reading some of the other reviews, it seems like even if you pre-pay for your food, they still ended up waiting and some have experienced the same customer service as us.)
