Great Food, Alcaplla has great flavor, comes with hot & mild sauces which are not needed. Jibarito cones with too muck Mayo & grilled onion. Other than that, great food

Wow. Just wow. I came here with a group of teachers for lunch. We ordered ahead because we knew we were a big group and didn't want to spend our whole lunch hour waiting. So, when we got to the restaurant, we walked up to the counter and asked for our food. It was ready to go and still warm! We sat down and just marveled at the food in front of us. I ordered the jibarito with two sides.... And guess what.. it wasn't even $20! Ugh such good prices! I had the plantains and another item from the menu that I didn't get to take a picture of. I finished everything and was so stuffed! I posted this on my Instagram and there were so many people asking me for the location! I am definitely coming here again with my friends.

Finally found a place that makes Puerto rican food that brings back nostalgia. Close to home. I don't have to drive up to the west side anymore. Food is always AMAZING!! Service is excellent. Found this place by accident back in Feb. and we continue to make it back here for more. Great place to sit and catch up with friends or family. If you want a place to dine in and you live on the south side. This is the place. Enjoy!

Food was fresh and very flavorful. Service was excellent along with ambience. I loved that they offered a Jibarita with the sweet plantains. Selected Puerto Rican restaurants offer the sweet plantain, so I was happy to enjoy it. Arroz com habichuela could have been a little better, but everything else was good.
