    The drinks here are really good. You can take your drink to go. Chino Latino food always hits different. The food is good. Service is quick. The waiters are attentive. Great shareable portion size. The beef steak with onions, boneless fried chicken and fried rice is really good.

    Beef Steak / Bistec De Palomilla
    Jessica C.

    Decided to drop by on a Saturday night for a quick bite. We immediately were seated and given menus. I ordered the beef palomilla with a side of rice. The beef was tough to chew on some ends. The sweet plantains I had was pretty good. I did see the previous reviews regarding automatic gratuity so I was a bit antsy waiting on the bill. Our total was $48 with 15% gratuity. Now to me I thought it was a low gratuity but since they were attentive I was gonna to add onto it with an extra tip after I signed off the check. The server came to pick up my card and ask if I wanna round off to $50. I said sure. So they added an extra $2 for themselves. Overall without this 15% I would have tipped more. Not a big fan of them adding it for a table of two? I am going to assume they had to add this gratuity because people didn't leave tips? The restaurant was very busy all night so I guess this hasn't affected them at all. Will I return? Probably not, I have my go to Chinese/Spanish spot in Queens that I will stick to. Overall place was clean and very attentive. This spot did the job on this night though, so I will give it 4 stars.

    The drinks are what you are really coming for because you are leaving SMACK or wherever you are taking your drink to go YOU will be DRUNK. The coladas are my favorite to drink. But the bubblegum Frose is my favorite.

    Especiale Bistec Maduros,and Blue Hawaiian

    We tried this Cuban Chinese restaurant after seeing a few TikToks and we were not disappointed. The restaurant has around 12-15 tables and service was quick yet not stellar by any stretch inside was clean but no over the top decorations but you're not going there for the ambience you're going there for the food We ordered a large Blue Hawaiian which came in a large plastic soup container. I inquired as to what was in it and was told "Rum and Blue". I can concur there was rum and blue in this drink. Certainly tasted the rum large was $24 which was plenty for 2. Now the food....we have had Cuban Chinese before and my wife was transported back to her childhood while eating the Special Bistec house special rice and maduros. She said it was orgasmic and I don't hear our food described like that ever so she was very satisfied with our meal. I had General Tso chicken which was crispy on the outside and fluffy chicken inside cooked in a tangy sauce. We both walked away delighted we opted for this restaurant . Parking was rough for a rainy Sunday night so be prepared.

    Haven't been here in a while but it didn't miss a beat. I went with 3 friends and I must say the portions are still huge and very tasteful. Amongst the three of us we got chicken with garlic sauce and beef lo mein and we didn't even finish it all it was so filling. Everything came out hot and fresh the garlic chicken could've used alil more spice but it was still good. The beef lo mein was really fresh with tender pieces of beef all throughout. The service here was very good as well waitress was very friendly and funny. Ambiance is casual. Definitely family size serving. They also sell alcoholic beverages, great pricing for the amount of food they give.

    Sesame Chicken with plain fried rice
    Danielle D.

    Came in at 11pm (they close at midnight) & was told I couldn't dine in since they were closing. There was still many people sitting at tables so I didn't understand. Food is affordable, it was $16 for sesame chicken & plain fried rice. Food came out pretty quickly. But it was not good. The sesame chicken & plain fried rice were both mushy. Honestly the worst fried rice i've ever had before. The rice was also lacking flavor.

    Let's start by saying if you are from Williamsburg/bushwick you know about this spot. They are known for their frozen alcoholic beverages. Which occasionally my husband gets them to go for us. We haven't eaten at the restaurant for quite sometime. Decided to go last night very last minute just us. Place was kinda empty. Good still on point like I remember,drinks strong as usual. But the waiter never brought a side order of beans that we ordered. No big deal as long as it's not in my bill. Water was NEVER brought to us as a matter of fact he hardly came to check on us. So when he brought the bill it was $87 and some change he suggests we give him a tip. I told him look at the bill you've already charged me for 15% tip. He's like but it's the holidays yada yada . He begins to call out amounts extra we hake give him. And laughs. I didn't think that was funny or appropriate. So my husband' looks at me and says come on babe just a few more dollars . I'm like that's not the point. He hardly checked on us never brought the side of beans and never even brought water and I should give him more money. I was so appalled and annoyed. No matter how good the food is that left a bad taste in my mouth. And I will not be back

    Food was bland and tasted like it was fried in old recycled oil. I'll stick to the henny colada which never disappoints.

    Good service, the food was flavorless somehow. I'm used to…read morethe spot in the Bronx off of grand concourse (iykyk) so the food I bought from La Isla was disappointing. I was hoping it would be tasty so I could have a new local spot, but I'll keep looking I guess. The amount of food I got for the price wasn't bad. The only thing I can think of that was positive about the food is that the potato ball was alright, I would eat it again.

    Sad to say as someone that is also of Puerto Rican heritage the colorism is real. I stopped by this…read moreplace because I was looking specifically for a Spanish food spot and I saw that this is like a little Puerto Rico in Brooklyn and I thought why not let me sit down for my hour lunch break, and eat here. Very wrong decision I walked in, there was an older woman with her daughter, and the daughter was helping her order her food and they were taken care of. I waited as it was very busy. I will say that. A gentleman walked in also Hispanic, but we can identify and assume what color of skin he was because he sat down right next to me, and the server literally went to him did not even look at me not once and asked him what he wanted and took his sit down order right next to me in front of my face! To my astonishment did not ask me what I wanted so I asked him. Do you not see me sitting here waiting to be served?! He didn't even respond. I was going to continue with my order, but it put such a bad taste in my mouth that I stood here in front of the establishment to download Yelp again and write this review. !!Please do not come to this establishment and spend your money because they will not respect you especially if you have of darker skin no matter what nationality you are.! Also the front is crowded with drug addicts!
