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!!

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. You'll be in heaven eating this dish

The food: I was in the area and was tired of the same food everywhere. Wife asked for latin and a few places came up. Since this one was on the way and only a 1 minute detour, it was the "chosen" one. Man, we were so glad to find this place. We ordered from the Family menu ITes, specifically #4. Chicharron de Pollo ( Chicken Crisps) with arroz con Habichuelas And Tostones. All was fresh except for the rice and beans obviously but delicious non the less. Their Mojo garlic sauce was too delicious not to lick my fingers while driving. ( please don't ticket me) The service was also on par. While not everyone speaks English, the ones that do try their best to make sure everyone understands each other. A family of 3 walked in and they sounded so "gringo" not in a bad way just in case but like they were just trying to figure out and dust off their basic Spanish. Y yo cause I'm fresh, i walked up to them and helped them out as if it was my place. On fridays they have Goat meat, so next time I'm in the area, i will make sure its on a weekend and visit the spot. Thank you for letting me try the last piece of Rabo you had left and for taking care of my family.
