The sides were perfect. The grilled chicken was also very good. If they had Coke instead of Pepsi, this would have been even better. I will definitely be back. I have been looking for a good Puerto Rican restaurant, and I have found it!

I've been wanting to try Michy's for a while because the Puerto Rican and Asian fusion sounded…read morereally good. I was getting a haircut and my barber mentioned the place. I think he was hungry, so I decided to order the family pack and share it with him and everyone else at the barbershop. The service was top notch. I told them I needed extra plates and silverware, and honestly I thought they might forget since I was in a rush, but they had everything ready for me. I placed the order about 6 minutes before getting there and somehow they still had it ready when I arrived. The restaurant was very clean, the area was not crowded, and there was plenty of parking. I got the family fried chicken pack, which came with fried rice and fries. For the price, the amount of food you get is definitely worth it. I've had fried rice from other places that was too greasy and ended up giving me stomach pain, but this rice was cooked perfectly with just the right amount of oil. The fries were fresh and crispy, not soggy at all, and the fried chicken was crispy with really good flavor. The portions were great, the prices were affordable, the service was excellent, and everything tasted fresh. I'll definitely be coming back and would recommend Michy's.

I really wanted to love this place because I absolutely love the concept of blending Latin and…read moreChinese flavors. Unfortunately, the food just didn't live up to the idea. The restaurant itself was very clean, the atmosphere was nice, and I was happy to see limbers on the menu. Service was also pleasant. But when it came to the food, it was a letdown. The vegetable fried rice had very little flavor, and both the sweet and sour chicken and orange chicken were just okay, nothing particularly memorable. The biggest disappointment was the crab rangoon, which was honestly the worst I've ever had. It lacked flavor and texture, and I couldn't finish it. The tostones needed salt they were a bit too soft too. Overall, I left wishing the food had more seasoning and more of the bold flavors that make both Latin and Chinese cuisine so special. The concept has so much potential, but this visit missed the mark for me. Sadly, the food wasn't something my Puerto Rican ancestors would be proud of. Hopefully it was just an off day, but based on this experience, I don't see myself returning.

Been coming to La Perlita for a bit now after a friend introduced us to their food at a party and…read moreI'm honestly obsessed. If you go, the garlic tostones are a Must! non-negotiable. I get them every single time, and I've even ordered half trays for parties and yes, full trays for bigger get-togethers. They're that good. The lunch specials are such a steal too. The pork fried rice hits every time, and the fried chicken is solid crispy, flavorful, and not greasy or overly salty like a lot of places. Overall, it's one of those spots that just doesn't miss. Great food, great value, and definitely a go-to for both quick lunches and feeding a crowd.

It felt like I was eating mostly sauce--I couldn't really taste the steak or the plantain because the sauce completely overpowered everything else. That said, I loved the decor of the place. The paintings on the walls were fun, colorful, and really vibrant. Even though I didn't like what I ordered, I would definitely come back and try something different.

Authentic Dominican/Caribbean food in Willowbrook. Who knew?…read more I remember this place from a birthday party decades ago. The space was a bit bigger (they've since redesigned it smaller), but the crowds were smaller. Success hasn't tarnished their food. It was a very rainy and soggy afternoons and the place was packed. We managed a table and ordered. Can't go wrong with the delicious shrimp mofongo. I honestly think the sauce is the icing on that cake, made all the more delicious with a squeeze of lemon. Whew! Service was fast and dinner came out at a reasonable pace. The owner is so friendly and stopped by our table to make sure things were good. Better than good! If you're in the Willowbrook area do yourself a favor and stop in for lunch or dinner. Prices are a little steep, but what's isn't these days?

I ordered the pollo guisado and moro, both were good and we have a little left over. My partner ordered the pica pollo and the fried chicken was decent. The food does take some time, and servers did not check in too often so I would recommend ordering ahead of time (unless you have a long lunch break), There are plenty of tables, but it is a little dark inside, 2 bathrooms inside. The juice was on the sweet side so just watered it down (wish they have smoothies), but they get 5 stars overall for the flavor and the price point. Plenty of parking as it's in located along other stores.

Let me start off by saying my family was born and raised in Managua, Nicaragua. I've been coming to…read morethis spot since it was a food truck then evolved into this brick and mortar location. I've always gotten the fritanga which I feel you can't go wrong with. The fritanga comes with your choice of meat between beef or pork, though there may be another option I'm not thinking of. I've always gotten it with beef (carne asada) which my family and I love. It comes with your choice of gallo pinto or arroz con gandules, and I always get gallo pinto since I'm not a fan of the alternative in general, but never had it here. It also comes with your choice of maduro or tajadas (forms of plantain) and delicious queso frito (fried cheese). Again, this is my go to and will continue to be. The reason I gave 4 stars vs 5 is because of the gallo pinto. I'm blessed enough to have family who has made it my entire life which is way better. It wouldn't be fair to hold this against the restaurant because of this alone, but theirs legit just tastes like unseasoned rice and beans mixed together. Everything else is delicious. We also got their quesillo which is basically a big tortilla covered with beans and cream and cheese. This was a 6/10 for me. Their enchiladas Nica was amazing and huge. Will def get this again. I recommend checking them out if you haven't already!

I also enjoyed the fried chicken and sweet plantains. The tostones were good, however I wish they were salted. The boneless BBQ ribs with pork fried rice were mid. Meat was dry and rice was decent. Egg rolls were average. I love how they infuse garlic flavor into their dishes here. Staff was friendly, but I didn't like that the gratuity options were listed at 20%, 25%, and 30%... we stand in line to place order, given a pager to come pick up your food when ready, and then you throw your trash away... pretty self serve. Not much service provided so that turned me off a bit.

Gran colombia is my top Colombian restaurant in Houston!…read more This place has been around for more than 10 years and they have since slightly moved locations but stayed in the same area. They renovated and everything is much nicer inside. Area is much bigger and modern. They have indoor seating with a huge covered patio and a playground for kids. Over the years their quality, flavor and good customer service has remained consistent. They treat you like family. I love that they offer a dish called Tipiquito it is a smaller version of the traditional Colombian dish known an 'Bandeja Paisa'. Not all Colombian restaurants offer this smaller version. I am happy to share about my experience when I helped coordinate a work event to feature Colombian food and I secured a catering order with Gran Colombia! They were quick to help me over the phone, they answered all my questions, they were willing to make the drive to memorial area to deliver the food. Every single step to complete the order was so easy and received the best customer service. Everyone was very happy with the food and service. I will always recommend Gran colombia! It is a must try!

My friend and I shared the Cameron's al Ajillo and it was soo delicious, we ended up ordering a other one! The sides we got were the Tostones and Arroz Amarillo con Vegetales and they were soo yum too! We also asked if they had a spicy sauce and they did, my mouth is watering thinking about it!

I had the Bistec de Palomilla, the traditional skirt steak, with a generous serving of black rice and beans and yummy plantains which were a sweet treat to end the meal with. My partner had the ropa vieja, the sauteed shredded beef with onions and peppers, along with some garlic yucca. Overall, I recommend this place to Cuban food seekers in the area.

Once we arrived, the establishment was bigger than expected. The decorations were fun and vibrant. The first thing I noticed on the menu was how expensive everything was. I'm sure the only thing they didn't charge for was ice cubes. Although the food was okay, there is no way the portions matched the price they were charging. I officially had the smallest piece of steak I've ever seen on any bandeja dish. I'm sure this could be hurting them because of its location and having many other options for Latin/Caribbean food. The service was alright. When we first got there we just picked a place to sit and waited for menus. The first waitress barely said a word, no welcome, no greeting. Looks like she was getting ready to leave. The second waitress was a little more friendly however I still feel like they lacked customer service here. Needless to say they didn't have the pollo guisado, only bottled waters and soda cans. Be prepared to spend, specially if you come to feed a family.
