Service could be frustrating at times, as they think you want to hang out there for a while. I'm okay with in and out. The dining area can use a little bit of sprucing up.

The dining area is 'family style' which is kool! I got mine 'to go' because I miss my sofa. The food was onpoint!!! The bacalao and the rice had great flavor (5). I was too tired/sleepy to write a review after I ate. I will definitely return, maybe I'll give 'family style' a try.

I decided to give this place a try after seeing a TikToker's review. When we got there, my husband…read morementioned that the food didn't quite look the same as what was shown in the videos, and I have to agree. However, the flavors were definitely there, which is what matters most. I tried the alcapurria, and while it was decent, I've had better. The chicken inside was a little dry and could have used more seasoning and flavor. On the other hand, the chicken empanada was really good. The chicken was tender, flavorful, and had a nice seasoned taste that stood out. That's definitely something I would order again. Unfortunately, I forgot to take pictures of my lunch, but I also ordered pernil with rice and gandules, as well as baked chicken with rice and gandules. As someone who loves pernil, I have to say that Puerto Ricans make some of the best pernil. It's always well-seasoned, flavorful, and tastes clean rather than overly greasy. The pernil here did not disappoint. The rice and gandules were also very good. While it doesn't quite compare to my husband's aunt's homemade version, it was still packed with flavor and complemented the meal perfectly. Overall, I enjoyed my experience and would come back to try more items from the menu. If you're in the area and craving Puerto Rican food, I think it's worth giving this place a try.

Primeramente, gracias por la mesa…read more por el rumor del mar servido en platos, por el salitre invisible que se mete en el pecho y me recuerda a qué sabe la libertad. Este lugar nuevo no es solo restaurante, es puerto. Es marea lenta entrando al alma. ‍ Los mariscos llegan como bendiciones: camarones, langostas, ostras, testigos de que el océano también reza cuando se deja comer. Cada bocado me devuelve a La Ensenada, Estero Hondo y ha @hotelvillasjk a ese horizonte donde el azul no tiene prisa y el viento habla claro. Luego, Boca Chica me toma de la mano: pescado frito, crujiente como la risa de la infancia, República Dominicana latiendo en cada recuerdo que aún sabe a hogar. La pasta negra... ay, la pasta negra. Tinta que no mancha, que eleva. Me transporta el alma al cielo del cine eterno donde Marlon Brando calla con poder, Al Pacino aprende a reinar en silencio y Robert De Niro recuerda que el honor también pesa. Así de profundo sabe este plato: a legado, a respeto, a destino. Y el Lychee Martini llega suave, preciso, ceremonial. Bendice mi hígado como si yo fuera el primero en descubrir su dulzura en China como si el mundo se hiciera pequeño para caber en un solo sorbo. Comer ensalada de pulpo con Aguacate y verduras es el oxígeno apropiado para esté cuerpo; Este cuerpo es Dominicano Higüeyano al fin @holahiguey de sal, sol y tambor. Pero mi alma es viajera, agradecida de todos los sabores que la comida ofrece sin fronteras. Porque comer es vida. Y la vida, cuando se honra así, se disfruta sin culpa, con los dos pies en la tierra y el corazón navegando libre. Amén. Amen.
