This was our first time. Come to find out, he is here every weekend, except certain holidays. "Solo" gave us a sample of Pernil (pulled pork) and gandule rice. Just one taste and I was hooked line and sinker. The flavors were spot on, the pork moist and tender. We also ordered one empanada filled with ground beef and veggies. It had the flavors of a pastele. Also ordered Tostone- green fried plantain which came with two dipping sauces. Garlic oil and Mayo/ketchup. Overall, excellent boricua flavors. The owner and his assistant are so welcoming. This is a food truck. There are outdoor chairs and table, but of course we picked a windy day. He is located in a dirt parking lot behind Grace Church. We sat in our car to enjoy our food. There were other food trucks setting up for the evening as well.

After reading extraordinary reviews on this restaurant, we decided to give it a try. However, the…read morefood and service fell far from my expectations. We came on a Saturday noon, and the restaurant was not that busy. We got free pork chicharrones as a complementary appetizer like tortilla chips at Mexican restaurants, which were quite tasty. Food: (2.5/5) Beef Canoa: (3/5) I ordered the beef canoa, which was a plantain with beef (I think it was normal ground beef). The beef was kind of salty with herbs and the plantain was sweet with strong flavorful sauce on the plate. It also had melted cheese on top. It wasn't bad at all, but it was pretty salty and the portions were small for $18 (especially since it's mainly a plantain with ground beef) it also came with one "free" side. Yellow rice with ham side dish: (2/5) This side dish that came with the main course was so salty I couldn't even finish it. The ham didn't really have a flavor, and the dish's overall flavor was just overwhelmed with salt. Of course I expected a dish with ham to be salty, but even after drinking 3 cups of water I couldn't finish it. I'm not sure if Puerto Rican cuisine is supposed to be this salty, but this dish and all the others just tasted like salt. Service: (2.5/5) While we did get offered free chicharrones, we had to keep asking our server for water or more chicharrones. Food wait time was pretty standard. Ambiance: (5/5) The interior was decorated with plenty of decor and car tags. I loved the lighting and overall design of the restaurant. Bathrooms were nice. The whole restaurant had a nice blue vibe. Overall I'm not too sure about the food, portions for pricing, or service but I liked the interior. Honestly I'm not sure if it's authentic Puerto Rican food or not, but it was way, way, too salty for me. (I gained 4 pounds afterwards just from drinking water since it was so salty)

Tostones were also very good, although I think the ratio of chicken to tostones was off. The pastelitos were also good but barely filled, which is why I subtracted a star. If they had more filling, easily 5 stars. I also think the chicharron plates could use a fresh element to cut down the all fried part. Service was timely and the (i presume) owner was nice both times we called. Pickup was also very easy from the window. Overall, I would definitely come back!

I got three orders of chicharrón that came with Tostones. Each order was $20. I ordered it through DoorDash to be delivered. I should've taken pictures but forgot but what I got was a joke. In the order was three pieces of Chicharron and the Tostones. The Chicharron barely had any meat and it wasn't that tender. Very very disappointed and honestly a little upset for the price I paid. I definitely will not be coming back.
