I'm sad I didn't take pictures! They would be a total thirst trap for my foodie peeps out there!…read more We enjoyed the buffet today at Luna Rosa. There was a lot of variety (pechuga ajillo, chuleta, pernil, arroz con habichuelas, arroz blanco, salad) available to us on the buffet. Right away, our waiter brought sopa de platano, which was part of the buffet as well. Service, from start to finish, was excellent! Dessert is even part of the meal - the buffet had chocolate cake and fruit salad (with fresh mango, apple, pineapple, and watermelon). The restaurant is nice, feels like a family vibe. Great music playing in the background and smiles all around. Loved it!

One and done. Checked out Ernie's Patio Bar for the first time and decided to try this truck out…read morefor some dinner. Big mistake. The photos and descriptions on their truck and menu look amazingly mouthwatering. Naturally, we ordered based on that. What we received was NOTHING, and I mean NOTHING, like what we saw or read. Unfortunately, I didn't get good pics because it was already dark. DH ordered the Cubano Sliders. 4 sliders with fries, and he opted for the garlic Parmesan fries. We've had plenty of sliders in our lives, and these things were TINY. They looked like delicious sliders in the menu photo, but you know the chicken minis you can get at Chik-Fil-A? That's how big they were. One or 1 1/2 bites each. Super small. The fries very garlic-heavy, but we like garlic so that wasn't too terrible, but the fries themselves were not good. Too crisp and dry inside, they just snapped off when you took a bite. The other dish was Pollo Guisado. I'm not denying what "guisado" style chicken is, and in my photo it is pretty accurate, but the photo they display- which was what I wanted- is completely different. Couldn't be more opposite! Their photo and description showed whole pieces of chicken with grilled peppers and onions, rice on the side. Looked pretty delicious. The young girl who took my order said they could do vegetables but it's extra. Huh? Ok, but the picture with the vegetables looked great so I went with it. She asked which beans I wanted (not in the menu photo) but I chose to skip the beans. What I received was a pile of pulled chicken (found a few bones inside!) with rice, some previously frozen mixed vegetable blend (broccoli, cauliflower, carrots) that tasted way off, and fried plantains whose dominant flavor was the oil in which they were cooked. No whole pieces of chicken, no grilled peppers and onions, nothing in any way resembling what they advertised on their truck. For the two meals, it cost roughly $31. Not worth it in any way whatsoever. FWIW, our friend ordered a burger from the other truck and enjoyed it. We enjoyed Ernie's itself but the next time we go, we'll either get a burger from the other truck or get better food down the street. We were so hopeful for this one but it's a hard pass from here on out.

The yuca has such a delicious rich flavor and arroz con gandules is a 10 out of 10... we will be hooked to this place.

Chicken was delicious as well, you can taste the grilled flavor. Ambiance is the VFW so definitely a great place.

We just left this little Puerto Rican food truck in Converse Texas. We ordered the Cuban sandwich…read more It was really really good. I suggest if you're in the area to go out and give them a try , their prices are very reasonable. The sandwich is huge. I couldn't even finish it, only ate a quarter of a sandwich. The owners are super nice !!! The menu does not have sweets on it but they've got a lot of Puerto Rican sweets . They have pies, cakes, cheesecake, Puerto Rican,Ricans cakes , guava cakes, coconut cakes, cookies, guava squares. If you're in the area, definitely stop by and support this local Puerto Rican food truck .

A Masterclass in Authentic Puerto Rican Comfort. From the…read moremoment you step inside, this vibrant eatery transports you directly into the heart of a Puerto Rican grandmother's kitchen. It is an exceptional culinary experience, paired with the kind of warm, attentive hospitality that has become exceedingly rare in modern dining. The staff here are genuinely delightful, executing a service model that is both highly efficient and impeccably clean. Operating as a curated, staff-served buffet line, the setup allows for effortless customization while ensuring pristine presentation. The value proposition here is outstanding, offering remarkably generous portions at a very approachable price point. The spread is impressively comprehensive, featuring an expansive salad bar, a dedicated dessert display, and a rotating selection of hot entrées. The technical execution of the food is flawless: * The Sides: The mashed potatoes and corn are a revelation--whipped to a light, cloud-like consistency that delivers a perfect balance of buttery richness. * The Staples: The rice is impeccably seasoned and cooked to an ideal texture, serving as the perfect canvas for the deeply flavorful, expertly prepared beans. * The Plantains: The fried plantains are a masterclass in technique, boasting a beautifully crisp exterior that gives way to a tender, caramelized interior. * The Protein: The roasted chicken is a triumph--so succulent and deeply infused with flavor that it commands the plate entirely on its own merit. With a weekly menu rotation that promises new daily variations, this establishment has deservedly earned a permanent spot in my dining itinerary during my month-long stay in town. I look forward to exploring the rest of their repertoire.

There's always a long wait for food. Like 60 to 90 min. For a place that doesn't serve alcohol,…read moreit's just an unnecessary wait time. Other restaurants like Luna Rosa will bust your food out WITH alcoholic beverages in a fraction of that time. The last time we went there, we decided to just order to go, in advance. We were told a pick up time and we still had to wait 30 minutes for it to be done. When I got home, I realized they didn't even give me one of my steaks that I paid for, and the woman on the phone had the nerve to argue with me. Poor service, horrible wait, and you won't even receive your food.
