This review is in reference to their food truck at luki brewery. I grabbed the drinks while my…read moresweetheart grabbed food, from the truck. Let me start by saying I've been eating off food trucks for 30 years (construction). Also my son worked on several over the last 5 years (same company, different trucks). This picaera truck straight dominated all of them. I ate the steak bowl. The meat had to of been slow cooked in a crockpot (only way to get it that tender). It was soooo goood. The rice was also the best rice I've ever eaten (spice room is my favorite restaurant, and this beat them). I'm honestly just blown away by how good it was. 15 out of 10 ( that's right they smashed the scale). Luki is a great brewery. Friendly staff with great beer. Will now be my go to place since I discovered picaera.

Got the combo plate with stewed beef, rice, and beans and it was flavorful without being overly salty, a good quantity of food, and convenient to order with the touch screen at the window. The pork was a tad dry so might not order that again, but the plantains were delicious, as well. Already looking forward to next time.

They told me they were unable to find parking (there is parking directly outside the building). In the delivery instructions it said to go to the 22nd floor and go right out of the elevator. Instead of following instructions she just stayed in the lobby. When she came up to deliver the food she had a major attitude, and told me it was my fault she didnt know where to go because I didn't give parking instructions. I am sorry, do I need to tell you how to park your car in the designated area for deliveries? She was very rude and turned around and told me F-YOU as she left my office. Literally cussed at me and told me F-YOU. So, I don't even care if the food is good. I will not order food from a company that feels it is appropriate to cuss at their customers. I

They don't have an actual sit down restaurant which is quite disappointing, but the counter service gets the job done. My only gripe with this restaurant is the portions are very small which surprised me greatly considering the plates are pricey. Regardless, you are guaranteed a tasty meal whether you order mofongo, pernil, chicken breast, yuca, or even treat yourself to some flan. There's not many Puerto Rican spots around so don't miss out on this one!

The space itself is quite small, with just a few indoor tables and some seating out front to people watch. What really stood out was the warm, welcoming staff. Service was quick, and everything came out fresh and hot. We tried the beef super arepa and the pork pupusa--both were packed with flavor and seriously satisfying. The only miss for us was the coconut lemonade, which leaned more bitter than refreshing. That said, it didn't take away from the overall experience. The menu is on the smaller side, but honestly, that works in its favor--everything feels intentional and well-executed. Definitely a spot we'll be returning to, especially to work our way through the rest of the menu.

This review is based on their Jibaritos I had from their food truck. I haven't tried their…read moreempanadas, yet. Jibaritos is a new term for me, but I've had this type of dish before called tostones or as my Colombian friend calls them, patacones. They are all basically the same thing and that it is green plantains, smash down, and fried to make a round shape. Then, usually pulled chicken, tomato are served as the filling, and usually I've had them open-faced, but Mama's Empanadas is serving them as a little sandwiches that they call sliders. Let me tell you, tostones are much better than a basic bread bun! The sauce served in Puerto Rican food is a mix of mayo and ketchup, they have different names for this sauce, but it's something that is standard for this type of food. And it's really good, too! I already love each condiment alone, so mixing mayonnaise & ketchup together works for me and is really a nice condiment sauce for sandwiches. The sauce is like thousand island dressing but without the chunks. I would 100% get these Jibaritos again!! Yum.

Second, I left my ID in the car and in order to get inside, everybody must show an ID to the bouncer. I have to run back to the car and get it. The place was packed and with 3 groups of people before me, the food took 40 minutes to be ready. We got the eggplant croquette, cassava fries, sweet plantains and rice and beans with tofu and fried plantain. The croquette were AMAZING! Also, the garlic oil that comes with the fries is absolutely delicious. I wish they offered as a side condiment to add to the rice and beans. Since the rice, beans and tofu, don't have to much flavor. Maybe a little bit of that garlic oil on top of the tofu will make a difference. The portions are just enough for one person that don't eat a lot. The prices are right for the quality of food they offer. I didn't see any deserts on the menu, so I'm not sure if they offer them.

Parking: easy, in a lot with many spaces. Food: Empanadas - shell was crispy and well-cooked. The shredded chicken filling was good, nothing special but still tasty. Would try a different filling next time. Overall rating 3/5. Cuban sandwich - the bread was thicker and more "sub"-like than many cubanos I have had in the past. Also had garlic cloves in it which was a nice surprise (I love garlic). Came with rice and beans. Pretty good, would get again. Overall rating 4/5. Ropa vieja - comes with beans and rice. Quite salty on its own, but balances out nicely when eaten with rice. Would get again. Overall rating 4/5. Guava & cheese empanada dessert - same size as the appetizer empanada. Delicious! The cream cheese goes very well with the guava and is well-balanced. Would get again. Overall rating 5/5.
