El Cilantrillo Restaurant - Florida Mall

Food was great. Service was on point. Definitely will be back when I come back to Orlando. Staff was very friendly and made great recommendations. Definitely a must try if you’re in the Orlando area.

We just landed in Orlando and we were looking some GOOD food. I did a quick search on TikTok of all places and El Cilantrillo was the first place that popped up. I watched one video and knew that's where we wanted to go. It was NOT a bad call at all. We LOVED the food the presentation, the atmosphere and our server (even though he went MIA for a little bit, but it was very busy so we understood) My wife and daughter were very happy with their dishes and so was I... we can't wait to return.

Always Excellent!! The atmosphere, the food the service is always complementing. My Family from Puerto Rico enjoy the dishes! Ana our server was sweet and attentive.

1st time at this location on 12/29/2023 on that time on that date everything was good and fine, I returned on June 1, 2024 with more family members, and was the last time, because our waitress make some mistakes with our orders because he didn't write anything, and when we ask for the check they include the tip with the total amount of what we spend, and we didn't agree with the tip amount, the manager ask if there was a problem and we said no but we want to give him what we think he deserves and he said ok before asking a few more times, when we decided what we think he deserves he says no thanks. We only take $20 of what they say that we have to give him, $80.

I had an incredible experience here—definitely five stars! The food was comforting, authentic, and full of flavor. I was just in Puerto Rico, and this meal was just as good, if not better! I highly recommend the shrimp mofongo with garlic sauce—it was absolutely delicious. Also, ask for Yehudiam—she is the best! So friendly and attentive. I’ll definitely be coming back!

We were visiting from VA on vacation… Food was AMAZING!! Be patient because the restaurant does get busy. But the wait was totally worth it!! Las canastas de pollo al ajillo was so good! Our entrees were carne guisada (Meat was so tender) , filete de chillo al ajillo and monfongo de camarones (not scrimpy on the shrimp). Everything WAS so DELICIOUS - would DEFINITELY come back again and again.

We went to this restaurant found on google map waiting for our flight out. Service was really good. Food was great, everything was delicious and came out pretty quickly.

First time here, and we loved it. Our server Estela was very attentive. We finally found a great puertorican style churrasco in the Orlando area...the best by far. The mojitos did a great complement...Please keep it up!

Good hosts should of asked for assistance for a group as big as we had. No napkins forgot few waters few things was forgotten where she could of have an extra hand other than that good service

Food is 10/10. The mofongo relleno was delicious and it stays warm for a while. We also tried the fried cheese and the mojitos which were also great. Drinks aren't super strong which I enjoy. Everything was excellent except the wait. We did wait about 25 mins after being seated for our order to be taken. But is understandable, servers were still nice and doing their job. I'd definitely go back. Also, 18% gratuity is included to all checks.

Awesome food and good vibes. Service was great the first time we went but pretty busy during dinner hour.

We had a good experience here, they have a lot of variety and flavorful dishes. The seasoning was on point across the board, and the prices were fair for the portion sizes. Highlights for us were the mofongo, which was absolutely delicious, especially paired with their garlic sauce, and the fried cheese bites, which were perfectly golden and satisfying. However, a couple of things kept it from being a full five stars. The arañitas were a bit too thick and came out greasy, we think they'd be much better if they were thinner and crispier. Also, the cooking of the meats was inconsistent. I ordered my churrasco medium and got a mix of medium rare and medium well, while the ribeye, which was ordered medium rare, was mostly well done with just a few bites cooked properly. Despite those details, the overall quality and flavor of the food were excellent, and we'd definitely come back to try more!

Service and food is always great!!! Don't look anywhere else, this is your spot for authentic Puerto Rican food. Sundays are the worst!! They have someone singing so darn loud that you cannot even speak, hear or enjoy the atmosphere. It physically hurts your ears!!! I walked out once when they couldn't accommodate our party away from it. It is super annoying.

Alright, my food was great! I would say pricey but good. The flavors were awesome and the portions were good. However, our server didn't return to refill our waters, nor offer us salad dressing for the "side salad" Also, they auto add 18% gratuity so just fair warning.

So El Cilantrillo is yet another first for me...I have been dying to try this spot for quite some time now since I see them on social media all the time...and boy am I glad I finally did! This restaurant location is right next to the Florida Mall with plenty of parking spaces for easy access. Upon walking in, we were greeted and seated almost immediately. The restaurant itself had a lot of tables and was a pretty big space...great for large parties. We first started off with drinks and ordered the coconut mojito and tamarindo margarita. The margarita was definitely the favorite of the two and had great flavor. The coconut mojito was good, but I just wish it was a tad bit stronger to cut the sweetness. For food we ordered the fried cheese w/ guava for appetizer, pulpo stuffed mofongo, trifongo and the fried pork. Let me tell y'all... the presentation was immaculate!! It was all so visually appealing. The flavors were spot on too...our favorite items hands down had to be the fried cheese w/ guava and the trifongo! Overall, we had such a great first experience at El Cillantrillo. The service was great and the food was definitely tasty. I definitely recommend for folks to try this spot out and make sure you come hungry because they definitely feed you with their large portions lol.

It took them a while to acknowledge our Table; we almost left. We ordered their Bacalaitos (cod fish fritters) and White Parcha (passion fruit) Sangria to start. Delicious Cod Fish fritters but a low quality Sangria pitcher at $40!!! Not recommended. Need patience; once ordered main courses, kitchen is slow. We ordered staples; Mofongo with Shrimps and Pernil (roasted pork) with Arroz Mamposteao side. Ambiance is loud and busy (even children squealing). Main entrees finally arrived and are huge and tasty. Both are very juicy and Good values. We are only two and still they stick you with 18% Gratuity and will not tell you when bring the check. BEWARE! Place is pack because food is tasty and great food price. It's slow though and Sangria is not recommended. $105 for lunch for two because of the overpriced Sangria. We will go elsewhere.

In two years a great improvement in service, presentation and options. I recommend this place for a good mofongo, plantain soup or the Kan Kan

THE FOOD WAS WAS SOOOOOO GOOD! We came after a day at animal kingdom and when I say it was everything it was . Reminded me of eating at my besties mom's house. They were pretty busy and food came out at a decent time . Con: parking sucks

Highly recommend for authentic Puerto Rican food outside of PR. We had a Passion Fruit juice which was refreshing and delicious they also serve Acerola juice which was nice to see on the menu. The Chicken Tostones was served with chicken breast strips that were in garlic sauce in a cup made of fried plantains. Chicken was moist and very flavorful and the tostones were perfectly fried. I ordered the Shrimp Stuffed mofongo and it definitely hit the spot. Perfectly seasoned and moist and fresh ingredients. The grilled chicken breast was moist and rice well flavored. The portions are large and definitely shareable. The restaurant was clean and food is very good. Service did lack a bit since it got busier but overall, we would return.

Loved the grilled chicken! Tons of seating and parking. Would love to come back and try more things.

Food was good but a little pricey, service is a little slow, there's a photographer circling around offering photos she takes of you for $20 which was kind of cute but a little random. I would definitely be back to try more from the menu.

Love love love this place!! It's lively, but not overbearing, the food is phenomenal, the service was great, no complaints at all! We started with the queso frito con salsa de guayaba (fried cheese with guava sauce) it was perfect. I would drink that guava sauce. It was so good and paired absolutely perfectly with the cheese. For dinner, I went with the mofongo de bistec (mofongo with beef and onion). You can choose a garlic sauce or a creole sauce, I chose garlic and was NOT disappointed. It was so garlicky and delicious. The portion size was huge, I had plenty left over for lunch the next day. They do not skimp on the meat, which was great to see. I want to try everything they offer, but it would be hard not to order these two amazing dishes again. When we arrived, we were told there would be a 25-minute wait, and they sat is about 5 minutes later. Our server spoke English, but many did not, which is fair. It seems like the vast majority of patrons also spoke Spanish. Shortly after we sat down, someone came to take our picture for a free postcard. We were skeptical but smiled anyway. They did eventually bring the free post card, and then offered additional prints for a cost, but she was very understanding/not pushy when we said no. I can't wait to go back!

I have heard of this restaurant from many Puertorricans and finally had the opportunity to check it out on our way down to Miami from a road trip. There are a few restaurants in Orlando and this was the closest one which is located in a shopping center. We did not made a reservation, which I recommend you do ahead of time, so we waited 30 mts. The restaurant was packed and had live music. I felt I was literally back in the Island. The menu had some incredible plates which I wanted to try. I ordered arañitas as an appetizer and I shared a chicken breast plate filled with yautia. It was delicious. Highly recommend this plate. I also ordered on the side "mamposteao" which is rice with red beans combined. For drink I ordered an "acerola" juice. My favorite every time I go to any puertorrican. restaurant. I did not ordered dessert but was surprised not to see a traditional dessert on the menu called "tembleque" made out of coconut. This restaurant is definitely a great one to go for Puertorrican cravings. I wish there is one in Miami. Highly recommended.

I ordered a bistec encebollado with cilantro rice and a side of plantains and side of habichuelas. I also ordered the queso frito with guava sauce. The meat was very delicious and so was the rice. The beans and plantains were also yummy. I loved the queso frito, but didn't try the guava sauce. The ambiance was nice and dimly lit. The hostess was nice, I ordered to go. I would definitely come back. Great portion size for the price. A few of the prices online are inaccurate.

I went with my husband, we put in our order my husband received his food, but mine never came! We told our server he just apologized. I ate some of my husband's food ..Total disappointment. No napkins no silverware we had to ask the bar girl because our server was MIA...

Overall this place is a great place for families. They have many shareable options that come with good portions. I will say the restaurant can get really loud and busy depending on when you go. Our server was decent he just seemed extremely busy which was understandable since it was Saturday night. The cilantro rice is something that will continue to bring me back!!

Decided to try this place after seeing their pictures. I really liked the "chicharrón de pollo" it had a good flavor and it was nice and crunchy. The trifongo was good, only downside was the fact that it wasn't smashed good enough so they had big chunks of yucca. Food was a 4, service a 3 they were polite but not as attentive, and there was this smell at the restaurant that I couldn't get over, they need to fix it. It was like a musty smell. I left as soon as I was done eating. Likely won't be back.

I ask for mofongo they bring mangu the service is great and food taste really good but is only more presentation is that ah by the way they do t accept teen at the bar

I have driven by El Cilantrillo countless times, but finally made the proper visit. It was busy on a Saturday afternoon with a 20-25 minute wait. Fortunately the bar was open seating and we grabbed our seats. The bartender was patient and friendly as we perused the menu. The drink menu is missing prices, but seem pretty comparable for tourist area. The sangria priced at $14/glass. My friend ordered us the appetizer sampler, Surtido EI Esmayao" which was a great size for splitting between 3-4 people. My favorite items were the fried pork chunks, cheese, and corn fritters. The fried pork chunks can also be ordered as an entree and would recommend 10/10. Everything we tried was great, next time I need to try their rice and beans and maybe even the bistec. Also be sure to check the bill as they added gratuity automatically. The food was great, we will be back again!

The service was excellent, had a visitor and we were craving some island food. It did not disappoint. Great options with variety on the menu and delicious tasting food. Wasn't able to make reservations as it was last minute, however we were seated right away. There's large tv screens inside to watch sports etc. honorable mention, the fresh lemonade was refreshing! I usually don't like limes, which were added in but to my surprise it was a nice touch. Would definitely go back, they have multiple locations.

I loved everything!!!! The best in every way!!! Worthwhile with great portions and wide variety!!!

Food was pretty good... everything else is awful. Took almost 2 hours despite there being only a few other tables. Service was so bad, and all of the waiters were just either sweeping, talking to one another, or talking to their friends who seemed to be getting discounted or free food. BEWARE... they also force a 18% gratuity no matter if you eat alone or with a giant group. This is also not advertised anywhere until you get the bill and there is nothing you can do. No wonder the waiters/waitresses don't care and don't try at all.

AHHH, we finally made it to El Cilantrillo. My coworkers have been raving about this place for a while. We found ourselves in the area and figured it would be a great chance to check this place out. We arrived and were quoted a 20-minute wait. After about 5 minutes we were called up and shown to our table. Our server greeted us and took our drink order shortly after that. My wife ordered one of their juice drinks, it was delicious and fresh. We also ordered an app. We went with Queso Frito Con Salsa De Guayaba, fried cheese with homemade guava sauce. WOW! The cheese was perfectly fried and that guava sauce was on point! We both loved that app. For dinner, I ordered a Pulpo (octopus) Mofongo and went with the garlic sauce option. The Mofongo was presented beautifully and it was a large serving. It was served hot and everything was well seasoned and tasted very fresh. I would order it again. The service was great. Our server answered all of our questions and was very attentive. It is worth noting for parties of 2-5 they add 18% gratuity and for parties of 6 or more they add 20%. They have a very large bar area, which looks very nice. There was live music at one point during our visit. Great place, would for sure go back.

The food, service, and ambiance were excellent. It goes to show that you can live in an area for years and still not have discovered all the little gems. El Cilantrillo was a pleasant surprise and we will definitely return. We really had an appetizer sampler with one main entree and each was delicious. All well seasoned and nothing overly salty. I came for the arroz con gandules and was not disappointed: rice done well with soft gandules and seasoned to perfection. I could have eaten an entire plate of it!! The masas de cerdo was oooo so crispy and seasoned outside with tender pork inside. I would have liked juicier but that may have detracted from the crisp so a toss up. The beef empanadas were too brown for me and not enough filling but were indeed crispy with delicious meat filling. My companions loved the nachos but also would have liked more meat ( we got beef). Our servers were attentive and excellent. You should speak at least a little Spanish but it is not required. They met all our needs and requests and were very sociable. The booths are not made for larger people (like me) and that was uncomfortable. They did offer to seat us at a table with chairs but I had already squeezed in and didn't feel like moving. There was a nice busy vibe with clearly happy people and evidently it was a popular place with repeat customers; of which, I will now become one!!

If you are visiting Orlando or live in the surrounding areas and feel like eating authentic Puerto Rican food, the El Cilantrillo Restaurant is the place for you. It is my absolute favorite place to eat in order to get a true feel for Puerto Rico in the state of Florida. The food at El Cilantrillo is super authentic, with that homemade rich taste that really takes you to the heart of San Juan or Ponce. Dishes like Mofongo, perfectly seasoned pernil, and all the Puerto Rican favorites are cooked to absolute perfection. Sure, the service could at times be a little slow, but that's a small price to pay for food that's clearly being made fresh to order. You know you're getting quality every time. I could go on and on about each dish I've tried, but really, the average attention span isn't that long, so I'll just say this: El Cilantrillo has never gone wrong; every meal is a hit. their beverages are of top class quality, and each one is designed in great detail to go well with the amazing food. It's a proper place to have a good cocktail made while experiencing those flavors. Sometimes they even have live music teleporting you straight to PR. I'm also very happy to see that El Cilantrillo is expanding within the region and increasing the number of its establishments but without ever losing the quality that makes them so special. That's a brand that knows what it is doing, and it does it well. Whether you're a local or just passing through Orlando, El Cilantrillo is a can't-miss for anybody who appreciates excellent food. Highly recommended!

Yummy food with great service! Definitely busy so you may wait a little while, but they have spots outside to sit and you can grab a drink from the bar while you wait. The people and the food totally reminds me of being back in PR, authentic Puerto Rican food that tastes amazing!

Amazing food. Was pricy but it was so much food it fed us for an another day. Had a passion fruit margarita.

This restaurant had hands down the best mofongo I have ever had. I don't live nearby and I still think about this place all of the time. If you're considering - definitely go.

They advertise LUNCH MENU outside but there is no physical lunch menu -- so if you don't ask about it, you won't get it. basically, just using to attract customers. The food was tasty but extremely small portions. Our server did not speak English too well, so the communication was kinda tough - she tried her best though. They came singing happy birthday to a customer (which is fun) but the ambiance was so quiet, and they were SOOOO LOUD that scared me. I have mixed feeling about this place - its okay but very pricey. not sure if I will come back.

SO GOOD! authentic. delicious. Very straightforward puertorican menu. Had everything you could want including appetizers like alcapurrias (beef only) to massively large mofongos. The plates are generous and the food is always tasty with great seasoning. The side sauces are delish, and come with most appetizers. The pina colada was great too. I've been here quite a few times so I decided to make this review because it's always consistent. The only thing I wish I could change is that we always have about an hour wait time on the weekend when we come in a large party, and they don't take reservations on the weekends. But we always wait and it's worth it. The ambiance is loud, sometimes with live music, games playing on the tvs, but it's family friendly. They have high chairs available upon request.

Todo salió espectacular, nos encanto la comida, el servicio, definitivamente volvería, los conocí por Tik tok y viajamos de Connecticut a Florida para pasarla bien y aprovechamos para visitarlos

I remember very clearly the first time I tried mofongo. I was in the sixth grade, and we had an international food day celebration. My mom made a bunch of pork and chive dumplings, since those were easy to transport. This being Brooklyn, many of my classmates were Puerto Rican, and one of my good friends (shout out to my man Juan Ramos) brought in some homemade mofongo. I didn't quite know what to make of this mushy dish that he said was derived from plantains (which I had not heard of previously). All I know is, when I had my first bite it was such an interesting texture and was mixed with garlic, his grandma's special "vinagre", and stewed pork; it was heavenly. Of course, when I got home to ask my mom if she could replicate it, her response very typically Asian. "Hi-ya! We already have some version of that made from taro root. No mofongo for you; Eat your mom's fried Wu Tao gou (https://thewoksoflife.com/taro-cake-wu-tao-gou). Who even cooks bananas anyway?" Ever since the sixth grade, whenever I get the chance, I ALWAYS seek out a good mofongo. So when I was recently in Orlando for work, I met up with some local colleagues to check out El Cillantrillo. Fun fact: After the NY/Long Island/New Jersey area, the Orlando-Kissimmee-Sanford neighborhoods of Florida have the second largest Puerto Rican population in the US. El Cillantrillo has a few locations, but we opted for the outpost at Florida Mall since it's close to the office I was working at. There is a sign warning folks of long wait times...and they ain't kidding about this. We arrived around 6:00pm, and the place was already packed on a Wednesday! We started off with the fried calamari appetizer...and honestly it was a bit underwhelming. The breading did not stick well to the meat, and while the menu described it as being "quick fried," it actually tasted soggy like it was not fried long enough. The lime aioli dipping sauce was good though. My friend already warned me that at most Puerto Rican restaurants, the portion sizes are HUGE. Confident in my ability to polish off the dish, since I skipped lunch, I ordered the perchuga a al plancha (grilled chicken breast). When it arrived, it was indeed enough for 2-3 people! 12 hour marinated chicken breast in house herbs and spices was seared on a sizzling plancha style grill and served with a side salad and I added the mofongo for an upcharge. And true to my buddy's word, there was a large enough portion size for lunch the next day. The chicken was super juicy and the high heat seared gave it an excellent smoky flavor. But the best part of my dish, was the mofongo. The plantains were deep fried, mixed in with onions and spices, and then pounded in a traditional pilon (wooden mortar and pestle). I really wish there were a few more good Puerto Rican joints in the DC area, cuz I so miss this side dish! We also enjoyed a few of the passion fruit mojitos. Mint leaves were muddled with house rum, passion fruit juice, and topped with a candied lime. It was a taste of the tropics. Careful not to have more than two of these, since the bartender was generous with the rum pour. By the time we left, the place was still packed and I understand why. The vibe is laid back and fun. There were large groups celebrating birthdays and not only locals were eating here, but a good number of tourists also. If you're visiting Orlando and staying close to the airport, I wholeheartedly recommend checking out El Cillantrillo.

We went last night for the first time. Me and the wifey were not really hungry, so we thought of just sharing a plate. We did start with the Alcapurrias Homerun start. Full of flavor and filled the perfect seasoned ground beef. We decided to have Steak and Onions as our main meal with Arroz con Gandules. Another round tripper as that rice was OUTSTANDING. The waitress very helpful with our choice. The live music was another hit. Not sure who was the artist last night, but he did have some great vocals. The trifecta as the 3 HR was finishing off with a nice fresh Flan. I would like to end with this, Pal Campo sorry you don't have anything on these guys. You've become too commercialized. This is the spot to hit. Go try it out, you will not be disappointed.

I honestly don't know what the hype is about this place, I feel their food is subpar and kind of expensive. We are in Orlando where there are hundreds of Puerto Rican places with better and tastier food. Service was good, and the ambiance was lovely...the food is just ok.

Ordered chocolate martini,. Watery and too milky. Ordered coconut martini; watery also. Ordered steak with onions. Got shredded beef.

Food flavor was ok, but be aware that the BISTEC ENCEBOLLADO is not like the one you may be use to served in PR or in other restaurants here in the area. It's a stew... also the portions are not worth what they charge for.

We were seated per our reservation at 7 exactly and our server was Nancy, who was friendly, fun and provided plenty of recommendations! We took her up on the appetizer recommendation, Fried Cheese! The cubed fried cheese was in perfect bite size pieces, and it came with a house made sweet and tangy guava sauce. We also ordered the sangrias, which were quite good, adorned on top with a pineapple slice and a cherry. Nice touch! The mix of Latin/Puerto Rican food here is excellent. The menu items are written in Spanish and English, with descriptive terms written in English. For the main course, we ordered the Grouper Filet. I order mine, grilled with garlic sauce. The grouper portion was quite large and very filling. The garlic sauce was creamy, mixed with red pepper slices. My friend went with a creole sauce and highly recommended it, also. Both dishes came with a small salad on the plate and we each ordered a side of Arroz Con Grandules, yellow rice with green pigeon peas, which was amazing! It was a great compliment to the grouper and is highly recommended. One thing to note, the place was packed on this Wednesday night. This is definitely a "family-oriented" restaurant as numerous families were present, and unfortunately, it was quite loud with babies crying and a lot of conversation from various tables. It was like being at a relative's party with a lot going on. So, if you are looking for a quieter environment, this may not be the place for you. Luckily, it calmed down somewhat around 8pm and made it easier for my friend and I to converse. FINAL NOTE, please be aware if you split the check as my friend and I did, the bill comes with "Suggested Tip" amounts based on the TOTAL BILLED AMOUNT. Unfortunately, I did not check this properly at the table and I ended up tipping over 43%. Hopefully, management will see this review and correct this for the future. Placing inaccurate suggested tipping amounts on a bill is NOT a good business practice.

I have been here before when they first opened the Florida Mall location and at that time the food was ok and portions with price point was not good. Tried it again a few years later and it has gotten a lot better. Everyone in our group ordered mofongo and portion was big and very flavorful. Only complaint is they need to update the kids menu option to include chicken breast as we were told they only offer pork chop which was way too hard for a child to eat. Other than that it was a better experience and food was tasty.

First day back in Orlando, Florida so I stopped by the Florida Mall and headed to Cilantrillo Restaurant. Our server Anna was amazing, attentive, thoughtful. The meals were delicious, the bistec encebollado was perfect and and the Mofongo En camarones was so saucy and juicy. Best Puerto Rican restaurant ever.

I came here for the first time we arrived at about 5:00pm waited about 35 minutes we got a table beside the bar area, very ample and spacious bar area. For appetizers we ordered meat alcapurrias with a garlic green sauce and were very good we also ordered coconut mojitos and medalla beer mojitos were so good and beer very cold. Main course we had a mofongo with churrasco and a mofongo stuffed with octopus and the octopus was very tender as well as the churrasco. Food was very good and tasty. Service was also very good and food arrived in a timely manner. Ambiance is nice they have live music and it's great for family dinner or date.

We love this spot, great food, service, and ambiance at a good price! Huge portions, delicious and fresh!

Amazing service, amazing food, Ambience was incredibly Amazing, i would go here 100 times. Food was freshly made. One of the best places to go with family and even on a date.

Food was ok. The server we had spoke very little English. I realize it is a Puerto Rican restaurant but my spanish is limited. Food was good but not the best I have had. Thought there would be more lively entertainment like Pal Campo (great restaurant) . We sat near the bar and we seem to have a couple of different servers and it took forever for them to bring the check and to return the credit cards. Felt like we were forgotten about. Overall El Cilantrillo was good...but not the best in the area!

Avoid this place by all means, came in with my family and after sitting for 15-20 mins nobody had even acknowledged us, I left my table to ask the hostess who was going to take our order and she said "the waiter is real busy you have to wait " finally someone showed up after 30 mins and took our order, food came out in small increments and the last meal that came out which we assumed was because we had asked for a well done steak came out with a heartbeat and rare, they then wanted to tag on an 18% tip for party of 6 or more terrible place and they really don't care about customers or customer service !

The food was great, the service As they say, on point. I also enjoyed the music, which gaved it a festive experience. Excellent place I'll recommend it to all my friends.

Food not so tasty but maybe for drinks and to hand out. They had live music. Food was salty and smoky. Table for 8, we ordered chicken soup which was very salty. The pink beans were smoked and uneatable! I asked the server to serve another, but when the chef tasted the other beans, he noticed he had the entire pot smoked and had to toss the entire batch out. I was still charged for the food that never came! Mind you, this was my 9 year olds daughter's food, which she didn't eat since she got a stomachache. Service was not great. It was busy but the server was not attentive at all. We had to get other serves to help us get utensils, ketchup, water, etc. I go often to Orlando, I will not recommend this restaurant.

We waited for over an hour to be seated when they said 45 minutes wait. Once we sat down the waitress was nice and she got our order in fast. The food here is amazing. It has good drinks and food. I highly recommend this place for authentic Puerto Rican food.
