"Just stepping foot inside Parada 22 will instantly brighten your day thanks to the vibrant colors and decor. Plus, it has very affordable home-style Puerto Rican food, all of which tastes even better when paired with a pitcher of sangria. There might be a bit of a wait, but it’s always well worth it." - Paolo Bicchieri
"This Puerto Rican restaurant in the Haight feels like you’re at an aunt’s house for dinner on a school night—it’s the embodiment of “homey” and “feel good.” There are old photographs everywhere, music videos playing on a little TV on the wall, and pantry staples and hot sauces at the ready in a mounted cabinet. That same feel-good energy applies to the food, which will inject a new sense of purpose for the days that follow—like their iconic chicharrones de pollo, and fall-apart pernil asado." - julia chen 1, lani conway, ricky rodriguez, patrick wong
"Opened by the same ownership as Boogaloo’s on Haight Street, this spot focuses exclusively on Puerto Rican cuisine, representing the owners’ extension of the Mission diner’s Latin-American approach into a dedicated Puerto Rican menu." - Paolo Bicchieri
"Walking into Parada 22 is more like walking into a living room. Old photographs and a Puerto Rican flag hang overhead, and sauces are presented at the ready in a cabinet. The feel-good energy extends to the generously portioned food, too. We gravitate toward the sampler plate, which showcases five heavy hitters off the menu, and is a great way to try everything without ending up longingly staring at someone else’s chicharrones. The fall-apart pernil asado and snappy tostones are highlights, along with the golden-brown chicharrones de pollo. Slathering the thick salsa rosa on everything is non-negotiable." - Julia Chen
"Lines snake out the door for pernil asado at Parada 22." - MICHELIN Inspectors
