Let’s see: FYI PARTIES OF 4+ HAVE A 20% TIP ADDED TO THEIR BILL WHETHER SERVICE WAS GOOD OR NOT! Beware!! My family of 12 went for my brothers birthday. We were seated and what do I see dirty utensils 🤢 Fine they switched them. We sit down and order the beverages the soda 🤮 no gas. The sprite tasted like plain seltzer water and the coke was gross you tasted layer by layer pure sugar pure sparkling water etc. We told the server to taste it for himself he went over to the bar and brought back a coke with ice claiming it taste different it didn’t! We asked for plain water so they brought us pitchers. There were also only 3 plates for appetizers they didn’t bother giving the rest of us plates. The server was extremely pushy. We asked for a moment to look at the menu every two seconds asking are you ready are you done when are you gonna order 🙄 the food was mediocre at best. My family did not find it worth it and honestly it was not. We named better places we could’ve eaten than here going from Applebee’s to sugar factory and the prices are similar but the quality is better over there. My brother told us to not bother asking for a dessert he’d rather we go get a cake and eat dessert at home! Unfortunately they implement/demand a 20% tip for parties of 4 and more! The service itself and the quality of the place was not worth a 20% tip.

The food and Ambiance was great.. I had so fun, the staff were also very friendly and helpful.. I had 2 issues, the first was the parking issue. Even with Valet, it was still rocky. The second issue was the whole reservation fiasco.. They said I couldn't make one because it was a Saturday and everything was already booked but come before 8:00 PM and I can put my name down. It was a party of 9 and I kid you not, we sat in that lobby for more than 2 hrs, meanwhile the ladies at the check in area kept saying, please bear with us and give us a few minutes..

Great music by more than 1 DJ a night from 96.3 FM. Valet parking for $10, entrance to the club free all night. The only thing I don't like is that in order for you to have a table you need to order more than 1 bottle back to back😡😡 other wise you will be standing all night by a small table if you get there early without chairs. The drinks start at $10 and food is amazing and a great price for the amount you get.

Good food, great party atmosphere, but a little disappointing in a few areas. First of, the restaurant area attached to the dance floor area is of far less quality than the dance floor itself, the walls are dirty and the floors need to be changed. Second, the customer service is rushed at most, no one is attentive to the customer but rather impulsive. Lastly, although the dance floor is really well put together, there seems to be a disconnect with the restaurant—for one, the music is so loud at nights that the you can’t even enjoy a social conversation while having dinner. Perhaps my opinion is bias, but I do think this place has great potential to be a 5 star spot.

Wait staff, good and music were superb. A bit of confusion when you get in bit atmosphere and everything else was super chill. You can go on a date, with your girls or a mixed crew. Def coming back.

I am from PR, born and raised. Moved to NY 4 yrs ago so I'm homesick for my food. Went here thinking Id get my fix. I was left with just wanting to go home. I'm so disappointed. The menu? Besides the mofongo, tostones y arroz con pollo, does not offer puertorican food. There is SO much room for improvement. The 3 leches, I dont know WHO thought it could be called that! Thats just an insult on its own. The tostones were good, and so was the rest of the food but definitely not worth what it costs and not to the standard of our food at home. As for customer service, I went on a tuesday night (8pm), the place was totally empty with the exception of 1 table, and the waiter was just in a rush to get us out the door. Never understood why. We wouldve ordered a few more drinks if we had not felt so rushed. Also, its a "Puertorican" restaurant! How about the music actually relate to that factor? And not just reggaeton, but other music from our home??? I'm in my 30s and I didnt enjoy having a tuesday dinner with Maluma on the background. And as for the waiters and hosts, how about speaking in spanish if you are dealing with a Puertorican??? So much room for improvement in so many ways. It took me 4 years to try it out and now I know why all my friends like myself from the island tried to persuade me not to go. Having said this, if you're looking for a nice looking Puertorican restaurant, go here and literally only order what I'm recomending. The rest, is just latin food, but thats about it. I would've hoped the name lived to the standard us Puertoricans live by in the island. Maybe for Nuyoricans this is ok, but its really not. This is a total disappointment and a shame. Suggestions: sorullitos de maiz, alcapurrias, bacalaitos, rellenos de papa, chillo frito, majado de malanga, serenata, verduras, mayoketchup without so much garlic, yuca al mojo, carrucho...! And so on...

It's a really nice place for a restaurant/lounge. Looks like most people in their negative reviews don't realize this is a party spot. Food is surprisingly good. Definitely quantity over quality though so don't come in thinking this will be the best food you ever had. I love their drinks especially the Pina coladas.

Went there for weekly special, cost us 3x more then stated. Food was delicious, staff was nice. Over charged meal left a bad taste.
