Chevere!

Chevere has the absolutely best authentic Puerto Rican food!!!! The chicharron de pollo is amazing, well seasoned, every bite is juicy. I mean just look at the picture, pure perfection🤩. I go every time I have the chance I will never get tired🥺. The owner is the sweetest humble person🙏

Located in the hungry pearl food court. The rost pork was delicious with a side order of rice and plantains that were cooked to perfection. Customer service was good.

There are not many Puerto Rican fritura restaurants left in the city. I had a last minute need for Christmas eve dinner for many family. Mike from Chevere really ne helped out. I had to call 2 days before Christmas eve with a catering order because my family was going through a medical emergency. I wanted them to have as normal a Christmas as possible. He gave me no problems and assured me all would be taken care of. The food was excellent his service was amazing. I worked in retail and customer service for many years and this is exactly what you expect from a quality establishment. If you find yourself in NYC and are looking for some good Puerto Rican food you need to stop by Chevere! Thank you Mike

Delicious! 👌I really was thinking about making a video and sharing how good it was but I couldn’t stop eating so it will have to be for next time! I also bought pasteles that looked really good and can’t wait for Christmas to enjoy! Arroz con gandules was really delicious too. From one Boricua to another WEPAAAAA 💯 recommend. Stop here if you are in NYC! BUEN PROVECHO! 😋

The alcapurria was too toasted for my liking however it tasted good. I had white rice, beans and masitas de pollo. I loved the masitas they were well seasoned and the texture was great. Recommend it if you are looking for Puerto Rican food.

Fell off insanely. Rice tastes like nothing now. They don’t even send the sauces. Chicken chunks now come 60% salad. Every time I order I hope it goes back to the regular program from 2 year ago leading to disappointment. Last time I order from here.

Wepa! We decided to try Que Chevere for an authentic Puerto Rican meal, especially since we had someone with us who missed the flavors of home. Located in a lively food hall, Que Chevere offers a straightforward menu where you can choose from prearranged bowls or build your own. We opted to build our own bowls, and we were not disappointed. The rice was bursting with flavor, a perfect base for our meal. The chicken was perfectly seasoned, soft, and tender, pairing wonderfully with both sauces provided. The rice and beans, along with the plantains, made the dish truly well-rounded. This spot is definitely one we'll return to for more delicious meals. A local even mentioned that Que Chevere is their go-to place for lunch, and after tasting the food, we can see why. Highly recommend it!

Can’t believe there’s no reviews on this place and I’m glad to be the first with an authentic review as I’m Puertorican myself. I never really go this far downtown but had a job interview and was STARVING. I saw the flags through the glass as I walked by and had to come in and support my people and I’m glad I did. 1000/10 will come again and definitely recommend. Food was so delicious it took me to the island. Got the bowl with pernil arroz con gandules and maduros with kola champagne as my drink. Please support as the food is worth it and fast service. Cilantro sauce AMAZING.

Located inside a food hall - location is super clean and well maintained. Got the make your own bowl - chicarrón arroz con gandules and tostones. All was really huge. The bowl looks small, but it's actually a really good portion size. You have to wait for the food to be prepared, which is a plus because it's fresh. Great sauce options too.

So I married a Puerto Rican dude. His mom was a good cook. She would make such simple dishes, but they were soooo tasty. There are some things that she made that I know I'll never find close to it again. And it's not necessarily because of the type of food, it's the TLC that's added to it as a secret ingredient. Stop the presses. Que Chevere is up there for giving that extra TLC for Puerto Rican food. The area is sort of off the beaten path. But the Essex market is definitely worth the trip. Lots of different cuisine but to me, QC is THE place to be. I've gotten their baked chicken, their rice and pigeon peas are among the best I've had, and the empanadas are soooo good, in fact the only reason they didn't get five stars is because they're sometimes out of the empanadas, and that makes me very sad (considering I don't get there that often). But hey it's not enough to keep me from visiting! And my husband loves the Kola champagne soda. He finds it difficult to find around these parts haha. And Mike is wonderful. He really took care of us during the holidays to make sure we were well fed!

Authentically Boricua! The experience was nice and the food was delicious. Brought the family and everyone had positive comments.

I ordered the mofongo ($15) with pernil ( $4) Good portions for the price. The mofongo was dry. My only issue was my order wasn't ready at the stated time and the cashier had trouble understanding my order.

Try as I might to enjoy the breadth of Latin cuisine in NY, I seldom find myself with the pleasure of enjoying Puerto Rican food, though my experience at this stand at the Market Line was lukewarm. The person helping me decide on a bowl was as sweet as can be, so I'm sending a huge shout out and virtual hug to the staff there first and foremost. My cabo rojo bowl, with sauteed shrimp over rice with maduros was really plain, with little to no seasoning on the plantains, and few pieces of shrimp. For $22, I wanted something more filling and texturely interesting. Prices are always high at food halls so I should have reset my expectations.

Shared the mofongo with shrimp. Good texture to the mofongo. Shrimp was good but chicharron may have been the right call. Came with a super flavorful sauce that is a must use.

This place far exceeded my expectations! It's tucked away in a corner of Essex Market, so it's a bit hard to find, but so worth it. The bowls are around $18 each, which is on the pricier side, but the portion sizes are generous. My bowl had far more pork than rice/plantains-- you can make it stretch into 2 meals. The pork was perfectly cooked and tender. The yellow rice was also very flavorful. Overall, this place is a hidden gem and I'd come back if I'm craving Puerto Rican food!

Que Chevre is a great Puerto Rican stand in the basement level Essex Market. It's a bit tucked away, but don't miss it because it is one the stars of the market. Too few people are familiar with mofongo, one of the world's great culinary treasures. It's a delightful mound of garlicky mashed plaintains mixed with your choice of meat. We went with shrimp. The portions are generous, and the flavors are tasty. They also offer create your own bowls, so we tried a chicken bowl with arroz con gandules. The rice was so good, really elevated. The market has public tables out between the stands for seating. We grabbed a beer at the Market Line bar (also in the market just a few steps from Que Chevre), and they have about 50 beers on tap. Great combo. The market blasts bumping beats for ambiance, and the mix of the music and mofongo gave us strong La Placita de Santurce vibes. Good stuff.

YES - EAT HERE! Outstanding flavor in the shrimp and the sauce that it comes in! The Arroz con Gandules (yellow rice) is exquisitely prepared - screaming with colorful spices and a rich depth of flavor. The side order of beans were a perfect balance if beans and gravy. EVERYTHING WAS WONDERFULLY DELICIOUS! You want authentic, flavorful food? Bottom line; EAT HERE!

Came to Essex Market with a friend for dinner early Sunday evening, and this place looked the most intriguing to us as we've never had Puerto Rican food. Ordering was quick and we got our food within 5 minutes. We got the mofongo with pernil (pork), which is their speciality. The plantains were very plain and starchy, which served as a good complement to the incredibly salty pork. We were also given sauces on the side: the green sauce was our favorite by far for its tang that helped to counteract the saltiness. Points to the massive portions--the bowl was quite large and packed with all meat. Definitely a good deal for ~$19 after tax and tip.

Got half way through the bowl because it looked so good before I remembered to take a picture. Phenomenal flavors. Love the fried plantain. Unique dish in an iconic location. Family-run and very friendly staff. Can't wait to come back!

So glad I ventured downstairs of the Essex Market tucked away in the back right corner. It was a sleepy Sunday morning but this place had quite a few fellow curious onlookers and regulars lined up. Looks family owned and the food is cooked with love. Pastelillos are 3.50 with a good amount of filling, liked the beef better than chicken, which I found a little dry. San Juan bowl is $18, my fault that I didn't read the tiny print: rice and beans are NOT included. Just chicken breast, 3 tostones and small scoop of cabbage salad. A very good alternative if you're calorie or carb conscious, but maybe disappointing if you're not lol. I usually prefer dark meat, but the breast was surprisingly juicy and tender, actually tasted good 2 days later. Only complaint is food came to $29 with tip, not necessarily an everyday place for me but would visit again if nearby.

Petty good food here! My two friends and I headed out to try this gem of a place. The service was amazing. Guy had a long day so he kept forgetting things but he was so kind and honest about it. It's nested in an open air market so it's louder than what you would expect. That being said, you can look around and see other food spots. The dessert counter ended up catching my eye!

Most of it was pretty great. Did a bowl with pernil and it was so tasty. Mofongo sauce was delicious. Mofongo itself was fairly dry and no flavor. Chicharrones de pollo is fried chicken. Not traditional chicharrones. Bought the pasteles-excited to try those !

I came to Essex Market craving a snack and came across Que Chevere's empanadas. I ordered both the chicken and the cheese but honestly should have just ordered one because they are huge! Service was fast and friendly and the empanadas were delicious! They even gave me a variety of salsas to pair with them which had the right amount of kick! I would honestly buy a bottle if their sold their salsa to-go!

Disclaimer: This is a TAKEOUT review Que Chevere, whose name means "how fantastic," is run by Michael Petrovitch, who opened the restaurant as an homage to his Puerto Rican heritage. It is located on the lower level of the newly revamped Essex Market on the Lower East Side. I love Puerto Rican food and there really aren't any in my neighborhood (Lower East Side) so I usually get some when I'm either visiting my family back home in East NY Brooklyn or if I'm uptown. I was pleased to stumble upon this highly rated little gem on the NYC Restaurant Week 2021 website. I took advantage of the $20.21 "To-Go" special. There were three options to choose from: 1) Pernil with arroz con gandules and ensalada de papa 2) Rotisserie chicken with arroz con gandules and ensalada de papa 3) Vegetarian mofongo, ensalada verde and two pastelillos de queso I went with option #2 and was pleased with my choice. The chicken was well seasoned and juicy. The arroz con gandules were okay. It was a bit on the salty side. I was quite surprised by that. Anyone who knows me knows that I absolutely despise onions in potato salad, macaroni salad and coleslaw (mainly because of the taste once everything is mixed together and it tends to have a really weird taste). However, Que Chevere's ensalada de papa was surprisingly delicious despite it having onions in it. It didn't have that overpowering "onion-y" taste. Not sure how they were able to mask it but that was a job well done! I would actually order it again. I look forward to returning to try other things, especially since it's right in my neighborhood. A wonderful addition to the Lower East Side! Sidebar: I loved the fact that I was able to order in advance and they sent me notifications about my order status. The order was ready super quick! When I arrived the order was already bagged and ready to go!

This is a hidden little gem squished between a chicken place and a noodle place in the Essex Marketplace. Close to 15 years ago, I went to Puerto Rico and have yet (until approximately 5 minutes ago) to find maduros (gloriously pan fried bananas) and slow pulled pork with arroz con gandules. The portions are big! I ordered a "chevere" bowl and I'm pretty sure I'll be eating this for left overs tomorrow. Super good tostones on top that I like to break apart and dip. The maduros are a massive serving that can easily feed 2 people. But who really wants to share that? I also ordered a beef pastelillo that was seasoned perfectly and came with a cilantro dipping sauce and a ketchup/dipping sauce. Both tasted great. I can't recommend this place enough! They also donate to Autism Charities. So many wins.

3.5 stars. In San Francisco Bay Area standard this was decent but nothing spectacular. We got the shrimp bowl with seasonal veggie. Good but pricy $20. We got the yuca beef empanada. Not good and inside is basically burger meat. And oily. Glad I tried once. Not going to come back

Was excited to try a meal here after having a tasty yuca alcapurria. Ordered mofongo with pernil. Got my ticket and waited directly in front of the checkout. 20 minutes later asked how much longer it will be and overhead the kitchen staff talk g that they had erased the order. Not even an apology. It was only after I cancelled the order that they were even concerned. Had I not been standing in front of them I may understand.

I tried the shrimp mofongo and I could not stop eating it. The plantains were soft but still had texture and they were so garlicky yet sweet. The shrimp were also perfectly cooked and dipped in the tomato broth with the mofongo, I mean soooo good! Super hearty delicious meal, perfect for a cold day!

Authentic Puerto Rican food. The flavors of the island captured in every dish. To say I love Puerto Rican food would be a bit of an understatement, both my parents being born on the island and having raised me on the food they grew up with. This is as close to home grown as I have tasted. Fantastic spot!!! Coming back again and again....

HEALTH/SAFETY CODE VIOLATION!!! In all honesty it would be NO stars. Eat at your own risk! Glass found in food. After voicing my opinion via their Instagram page, I was blocked. Mind you, I was discreet during the entire incident while customers were behind me. Incident occurred on Sunday, August 15, 2021. Below is the IG private message I sent them: Extremely disappointed with my first experience earlier this morning. As a fellow Puerto Rican I'm always on the lookout to find a true Puerto Rican spot to support other fellow Puerto Rican's. Coming all the way from the east end of Long Island, to try your place. We started with three alcapurrias. Then placed our orders for three different entrees. To our surprise one of the alcapurrias had a large piece of glass from what appeared to be from a bottle of Malta India. When my niece took her first bite she felt something cut the inside of her mouth. We immediately brought this to the attention of the person behind the counter and requested that our orders be cancelled and refunded. After that experience, I'm sorry but I would not be able to trust the establishment. The reason I'm reaching out is because I found it odd, that after the person speaking to the owner (Mike), to advise him of what occurred and to confirm that he could refund (void/cancel) my order, it was I that had to instruct the workers to inspect and throw out the other alcapurrias. The glass was apparently inside the meat not the "masa". Unfortunately, I had to leave and was not able to stay long enough to see that they even took the precaution to throw out the other remaining alcapurrias. (END) No comment or any other form of communication from whoever is running their IG page. This lacks professionalism and customer service.

This is a true puerto rican staple meal, mofongo con pernil. The flavors were all there, perfectly seasoned. The plantain was perfect texture and the pernil was cooked perfectly. This is real comfort food and it comes with a meat broth on the side to drizzle onto the dish. 10/10 amazing amazing!

I've eaten at the Grand Delancey a number of times and the Puerto Rican options have been great but Chevere's chicken wings are just my favorite. They're listed as a side but they definitely serve as an entree for one. My wife enjoys the mofongo but that's not on the Delancey's menu. Anyhow, I swung by on the night on the super bowl to pick up some non-buffalo-style wings as take-out and they had a special of Cincinnati-style wet and Los Angeles-style dry rub. I got half and half and it's delicious. Highly recommended if it's ever available again.

Very disappointed with this place. Did not even get to try the food. Went on a Thursday around 2 pm to the Delancey St location and it was closed, even though there was a sign stating that they would be returning from vacation that same day. I messaged them on Instagram and asked if they would be open the next day . I was told this location would re open on a Saturday instead, but that their financial district location would be open the next day from 11am to 5 pm. We went all out of our way to this location because we are on vacation from Los Angeles and it was also closed. I asked around and I was told that they closed around 2 or 3 pm.

The service was nice and the empanadas were delicious. Located at the bottom floor of the market and the man who worked there was so kind. The meat in the empanadas were good, we will have to come back to try other food options. I recommend trying these empanadas.

Great mofongo, amazing sauces, super friendly and helpful staff and complimentary Papa Fritas! How can you go wrong?? Tucked in the lower lever of Essex Market, this jewel is a must try! The mofongo was so good! Definitely comparable to the mofongo I had in Puerto Rico! And the sauce, just outstanding and really completed the dish. It was enough for me and my hubby! And because I checked in on Yelp while we were there, the complimentary papa Fritas came up! They were so warm and had such an awesome seasoning, it was hard to stop! We also picked up a beef pastelillos, but had to save for later since we were pretty full from the mofongo. We will definitely be back to try some of the other awesome menu items!

You would never think for a moment that a place so small could pack such big flavor. A lot of people will say the very same, but no, this is JUST LIKE eating ON the island. 1st having this, I really couldn't believe that in the basement of a market, I would be in San Juan having dinner. The rice, arroz gandules, theres so much pride and love in this rice. It has to be someone's abuela's recipe, they were taught so well. In this time it's extremely unfortunate I did not get to try the pernil, but the chicharron de pollo damn near made me forget all about it. That and the potato salad, don't tell my grandma I had potato salad that was this good outside of her house! We also had the mofongo, this did not blow me away like everything else, but the sauce was a perfect balance with the shrimp and the texture of the plantains. Pro tip, that pique is not for the average hot sauce user, be wary, but don't be afraid, it tastes good on everything. Try it first! I loved every bit of the food, excited to come back and try the pernil. For more pics and foods, please follow me on IG @verytrueoso thank you!

Flavors are spot. On. Puerto Rico I took one bite and my heart was FULL! With current circumstances of life, we haven't been able to travel back home and the food from Que Chevere healed our sad hearts. Service was tremendous as well - Super friendly staff! We went for the build your own bowl. Everything was amazing. Arroz con gandules, pernil and potato salad (uhm... WOW) Chicharron de pollo, white rice, and beans (beans took me RIGHT BACK to Cabo Rojo) Guys, if you're reading this, you just gotta go! Be safe and be well!

Que Chevere is such a great find within Essex Market (located downstairs in the Market Line) and all their food is truly made with LOVE FROM PUERTO RICO. They offer such delicious and authentic Puerto Rican food - I absolutely loved the shrimp mofongo, the shrimp was sooo good and cooked perfectly, it had a ton of flavor. You must try their amazing empanadas - I tried a beef one and it was great, also loved the salsas it came with.

My family was visiting NYC this week and were looking for something to fill our bellies. A friend recommended this place and it did not disappoint! Everything on the menu sounded delicious and it was tough to make a choice. The owner suggested that we get the signature , Chévere bowl. Our kids ordered the chicken build your own bowl and devoured every bite. My husband and I gushed over the slow roasted pork. The sauces were so good I couldn't get enough. The tostones were perfect and could have eaten 20 more! We need one of these in California!

Very filling! I was hoping there would be more flavor. This was my first time trying Puerto Rican food. My favorite part was the red beans because the stew/sauce had plenfy of flavor. The roasted chicken and rice felt like something I could cook at home myself but at least it's fast food but taste like a homecooked meal. The service was good!

So I found this stall on the lower level inside the Essex Market and had to try their food since it was so highly rated. Their specialty is pernil so I chose that over their rotisserie chicken. He would've gotten the mofongo too but with the commute home, the food would've been ice cold. The pernil was so tender and juicy. I made my own rice and potato salad. It was delicious. L's family makes pernil also but it's bland and nowhere as tender. The food comes in a reusable black tote bag which was really nice.

I met the lovely family behind Que Chevere while participating in Hester St Fair last summer before they opened their Essex Market location...even trying their food then I knew it was special. As a Puerto Rican and also a Chef I have a pretty high standard for PR food. Their arroz con gandules are as good as my grandmother's. That is not something I say lightly. I continue to get delivery from them and have dragged my mom to their store front to try it herself. She agrees. The portions are huge and the sauces on the side are all flavorful and bright. The pernil is the MOVE. It is tender and flavorful and not too fatty. You can truly taste the love put into each plate. Even during Covid the standard has never wavered...food arrives in an adorable reusable tote bag, tostones still crispy and rice piping hot. If you're not getting your authentic Puerto Rican food from Que Chevere you're wasting your time.

Pretty impressed with this place. My sister and I stumbled upon it in Essex Market when looking for a quick and easy bite for dinner and were convinced to give it a try when we saw all of the amazing looking plates others were walking away with. Build-your-own plates are $13 and the portion size is large - shareable or big enough for leftovers. You pick a rice, a meat, and a side. I had the yellow rice with peas and it was amazing as well as the pernil which was tender and flavorful. However, i would have preferred a slightly smaller portion of both in exchange for a second side. I opted for the sweet plantains which were okay but not great. They gave us a few sauces on the side which had great flavor. The service is slow and discombobulated, which ironically is part of the authenticity; I had been in PR the weekend prior to going and that was the way things were most places there as well. Despite there being only a few people in line in front of us and everything being pre-made chipotle style, we still waited maybe close to 15 minutes for our food. I resisted the temptation to offer to hop behind the counter and help out. Would return. Great low-key spot in Essex Market.

So good! I love it! The pork was so soft, so succulent. Sweet goodness overload! I was so happy! I'm Puerto Rican 2.0.

I just... wow. The food here is like grandma shipped her food straight from Puerto Rico. The pastelillos (empanadas), are soooo flavorful and packed with meat, I almost cried... it was THAT great. I built my own bowl and ordered the chicharron de pollo with tostones and arroz con gandules and let me tell you, I felt like I was at home, it was beautiful. If you want to feel welcomed with open arms and and eat food made straight from the heart, you definitely need to come here!

Hey, I found this place on a Facebook Group for restaurant and they are a few blocks from me. I wasn't sure of whether to order from this place after reading the one of the Google negative reviews. - The pork and rice raw. - Pricey - Bad But, I decided to give it a go. I didn't even look at the Yelp reviews. On 8/15/2020, I ordered one pound of Pernil Roast Pork while at the location. Instead I was given the combo order of Pernil with Rice and Beans and Potatoes. I was really disappointed after I got home. I was just coming home from work and was hungry and exhausted. I took an image of it and ate the food. The food was good, but I really wanted more Pernil Roast Pork for leftovers the next day. I emailed the owner and got a reply that they'll make it up on the next order. I went yesterday (8/21/2020) and along with my make up order got the CICHARRON DE POLLO - BONELESS FRIED CHICKEN. I alos got to meet the owner Mike and we chatted for a short while. Well, in the end, the Pernil Roast Pork did not disappoint. My wife and kids are very picky eaters. My eating choices do not coincide with their taste buds. But, this time, they finished up the CICHARRON DE POLLO - BONELESS FRIED CHICKEN and then the Pernil. I will definitely be going back frequently for dinner. In the end, my food was cooked properly. The plate of food was huge. I am glad I took a chance on eating here. Special note: I found out the hard way - that if you order directly at the location, it's at Grand Delancey Bar and the menu is limited. But, if you order on Doordash or Grubhub you can order the whole menu range. Hats off to the staff of Grand Delancey Bar - they did the coordination for the order taking. I forgot to take images of the one Pound Pernil and CICHARRON DE POLLO - BONELESS FRIED CHICKEN - 8/21/2020. We were busy eating.

Not a fan of the pernil (pork) dry and salty. The Maduro is great!! And this would be the best potato salad I've ever had if the salt level isn't completely random. Some days it burns my tongue but when it's not too salty it's AMAZING.

As authentic as it comes! Love PRican food and couldn't pass up helping this small business during Restaurant Week. Quick, friendly service and I even got a great reusable bag; speaks to their name: ¡Qué chévere!

Let's get real, people. Que Chevere is NOT so Chevere. From a Puerto Rican. Ordered: Mofongo with Shrimp, along with a side of sauce. Ordered: Pernil Bowl with white rice and red beans. Both Mofongo AND Pernil - flavorless!!! Seriously?? A Puerto Rican spot and it's food is FLAVORLESS???? The Mofongo texture seemed as though it was boiled. The shrimp were fine, as was the sauce (and a good thing I asked for it, because at least that had flavor). Rice and Red Beans were just okay. Pernil - was perhaps one of the worse I've ever tasted. Nothing else to add. Lastly, I've never ever seen chopped scallion added to Puerto Rican dishes as a garnish. Cilantro yes. I suspect the reason is that it just doesn't match, culinarily speaking. So, if it ain't broke, don't fix it. In other words, do better on the actual dishes and don't alter it with silly garnish. I am truly sorry I have to post this. I hope you improve things and REPRESENT!

Literally writing this review as I eat it... that's how good it is. I got the pernil with rice and peas with sweet plantains (which is my usually order at every Spanish restaurant). The pernil was so moist and tender, full of flavor!!!! Rice and peas I would say was slightly on the salty side but also DELICIOUS. The portions are large and I thought I would finish it in 2 meals... but I'm almost done eating the entire thing. Oops.

Visiting from Miami and we came here to try the food. We had the arroz con gandules that honestly lacked gandules like what was that?! Fix your portion of gandules to rice ratio. I don't want yellow rice and 5 gandules in there. The chicken was good and so was the potato salad. We also tried the pernil, didn't think it was out of this world. The alcapurrias pretty big but a little on the saltier side

I ordered from here on Ubereats today and let me tell you lol I've been having a shitty day since it's Mother's Day and unfortunately my mom has passed but and this food literally made everything so much better. It tastes just like how my mom used to cook. I got the pernil platter which came with potato salad. I'll definitely be ordering again from here and trying the rest of the menu out. But if you see this on one of your delivery apps don't pass up on it. This place is definitely my new favorite spot for comfort food. 10/10.

It's a shame we don't have many Puerto Rican spots like this place around. This is a must to try. I'll be coming back for sure and telling my friends about it. Absolutely delicious. Not many can get arroz con gandules right and they nailed it. I'm drooling writing this haha. The pernil, tostones, empanadas and alcapurria were on point as well. Many overlook Puerto Rican cuisine and thats a shame. Get out and give this place a try. You won't be disappointed.

Good Puerto Rican food. Took my order to go. Was surprised by the generous portions of food given. I had 1/2 chicken, yellow rice, mofongo, empanadas, salad. Very good food especially the garlic sauce. Hope this restaurant can survive because there aren't a lot of Puerto Rican restaurants in the neighborhood.

Wow! Just WOW! This place has GREAT food! Huge portions, prices in line with the quality and portion. Had the potato salad, pork shoulder (HUGE portion) and addictive rice. Did I feel like I gained five pounds after eating it? I certainly did. Worth it though. Would order from this restaurant again and again...the spices used in the rice were so good.

Some of the best Puerto Rican food in the city. Delivery wasn't the fastest but the food came hot and well packaged. Get the pork and rice

There are many Spanish, Argentinian, Colombian, Brazilian, and Dominican restaurants throughout the city, but there aren't many Puerto Rican restaurants. The food really exceeded my expectations. I lost my mother a few years ago and I miss her cooking so much. The taste brought back many memories.

Went yesterday to pick up my thanksgiving-day order and even though I arrived very early, they still accommodated me and treated me well. Food is delicious! Staff is nice! Very good. Will buy again, and again... and Again!
