"Casita Miramar is a classic restaurant that serves traditional Puerto Rican dishes in a space that feels like an old house—there are lots of rooms, dim lighting, and an outdoor patio full of plants. It’s packed on weekends, so consider going for an early weeknight dinner to avoid the crowds. Begin with the buñuelos con chorizo y alioli and a pitcher of sangria, followed by the cabrito stew, duo de carne frita y ahumada (fried and smoked pork), or the fried chicken empanada with their mamposteao rice." - adriana silva, tiffany yannetta, mariana trabanino
